And if it did, it really would be a doom & gloom time for the rest of Devon. It would literally punch a huge hole in Devon, leaving us looking like a doughnut on the map. Exeter wanted to be greedy and keep 9/10th of the money raised for themseles, not caring about the 6000 miles of road and 3500 bridges that Devon and it's rather sparse population would then have to maintain, etc. whinge, etc.
