THANK you to everyone who turned up on May Day to support Pete Fletcher in his protest against excessive demands by health and safety officials which led to the cancellation of the May Fair. 
People of all ages approached me to voice their anger and concern that other events in Devizes might be under threat; that we might lose the confetti battle, the lantern parade or even the carnival. 
I have sent the petition to County Hall, with a plea for a lighter-handed approach to health and safety.
