These are the questions asked at the Petroc hustings on Monday night:
1) Andrew Norden, of Barnstaple:
Whose fault or responsibility is the MPs’ abuse of expenses scandal?
2) Thom Walker, of Burrington:
Do any of the panellists foresee a time when the UK is independent of EU governance?
3) Elizabeth Burton, of South Molton
It’s been widely reported that Lord Ashcroft is putting money into marginal seats that he thinks the Conservatives can win. Philip Milton says he hasn’t had any. Does that mean he can’t win?
4) Roger Warren, of South Molton
The next Government will face many pressing national and international issues. How will you ensure that the voice of your constituents in North Devon will still be heard?
5) Gavin Boudean, of Knowle
Do you believe that illegal immigrants should, in some circumstances, be given citizenship?
6) David Ayre, of West Down
What would the candidates do to help the rural economy and halt the loss of local services etc?
7) Andrew Cooper, of Croyde
Given that this constituency is a high incidence ‘Bovine TB hotspot’ do you regard a flourishing badger population above a flourishing cattle trade?
8) Mel Grant, of Barnstaple
We need MPs to stand out from the crowd – to be radical like William Wilberforce. What are you passionate about changing for the good of the people of the UK?
9) Mr Austin Philip, of Barnstaple
Combatting climate change will need tough and unpopular polices. What unpopular polices are the candidates prepared to support that will reduce our dependence on burning fossil fuels?
10) Gill Ellis, of West Buckland
What is your policy on supermarket opening in small North Devon towns like South Molton?
