Bexhill News and Views

@LincolnPegg What’s happening ?

Hailsham council have managed to create a perfect vehicle trap. The best traffic jam in East Sussex. A combination of dreadful traffic planning and forever roadworks. I bet whoever is making road policy is Lycra Queen on a bicycle.

🏏 SEASON TO CELEBRATE! 🏏 What a year for Bexhill CC 1st XI! In Ben Phillimore’s first season as captain, the side finished an outstanding 2nd place in Sussex League Division 4 East securing their promotion to Division 3 🙌 From hard-fought victories to team performances built on commitment, belief and togetherness, this season has been one to remember. Every run, wicket and catch played its part in a campaign the whole club can be proud of. Now it’s time to reflect, celebrate the highlights, and look ahead to the next challenge 💙 👏 Congratulations to the players, captain, and everyone who supported the journey! #BexhillCC #1stXI #PromotionSecured #Division3 #SeasonHighlights #CricketFamily #TeamEffort #ProudClub #TheSportsmanPublicHouse #CheesmurBuildingContractors #PieceofCake #PhillimoreMotorEngineers #CoodenTaxConsulting #Cricket

New to the Committee at @Bexhill_United but have witnessed first hand the effort that has gone in to get the football club to this point. Our absolute lifeblood is stuff like the 25 quid to sponsor a player. Get on board! @ssxfootballhub @thesnlfdod @SportSussex @TheSCFL

The Colonnade motion passed at Full Council is not what was agreed in the chamber. This isn’t just my view—traders, residents & the full Conservative Group back this. Rother must answer. Democracy can’t be rewritten after the fact. @BBCSussex #Transparency #bexhill #false

And just like that, we are back outdoors playing the game we love. Outdoor training starts on Tuesday from 6-8pm, see you there!

@ConnorWinter_ @LabourBayliss @RotherDC I’m told that Sainsbury’s lease has ended in the town and the council want the site back is there any truth in this ? What are the council planning to do now ? How much did the site cost ? Are the taxpayers getting value for money #bexhill
