Can you answer these questions?

During the past week we’ve been peppering our posts with questions. Nothing unusual in that, and we reckon it’s part of our remit as a social enterprise to try to engage our readers in the debate around current affairs. So here’s a run down of some of the posers we’ve published. Can you answer these questions?

On Oh my cod! Fun fishermen’s catch to add to national quota we asked
• Sick of being ruled by those European lot or are you more concerned about local representation? What’s better, macro or micro democracy?

On Local transport plan wins praise from government office we asked
• How effective is transport in Devon?

On End discrimination based on poverty and class, says Equality South West we asked you to
• Get in touch with your examples of discrimination based on poverty and class.

On Green Apple award for Torbay Council’s recycling scheme we called for you to
• Get in touch with news of your environmental schemes.

And finally, As Barack Obama enters the White House, how did George W Bush inspire you? and we wondered
• What fact or fiction memento of the George W Bush years do you have? It could be anything, from a song that reminds you of one of his gaffes, to a news picture that reminds you of one of his gaffes.
