The Devonites have a long history of not agreeing with the powers to be in London.

If my memory of history is correct, Devon is where the Peasants' Revolt began in 1381. Is there another Wat Tyler in the offing?

"The main areas of revolt were brought under control: York, Devon, Berkshire, Hampshire, Wiltshire, Somerset, Sussex, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Lincolnshire, Huntingdonshire, Warwickshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Kent, Essex, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Surrey, and Middlesex."

The revolt came from many areas. I sure that Devon had its fair share.
