Mill on the Exe Exeter

The Mill on the Exe has decided to cancel Jazz on a Sunday from March. The February date will go ahead but that will be the last gig at the Mill.

Despite a petition in November 2006 to keep Jazz alive which the owners listened to. Many of those customers that were there in November did not attend in January. Therefore the decision has been made by the owners to stop Jazz at the Mill.

Petition against Government Road pricing policy

This could be the end of live music!! Recently I was sent an email with an epetition against the Government proposed Road Charges for any Car/Motor Bikes. I thought this subject so important that I have decided to put it on our site - If you want to keep MUSIC LIVE please sign the epetition......

The government's proposal to introduce road pricing will mean you having to purchase a tracking device for your car and paying a monthly bill to use it. The tracking device will cost about £200 and in a recent study by the BBC, the lowest monthly bill was 28 for a rural florist and 194 for a delivery driver and a non working Mum who used the car to take the kids to school paid £86 in one month. On top of this massive increase in tax, you will be tracked. Somebody will know where you are at all times. They will also know how fast you have been going, so even if you accidentally creep over a speed limit you can expect a NIP with your monthly bill. If you care about our freedoms and stopping the constant bashing of the car driver, please sign the petition on No 10's new website http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/traveltax/
