A Local newspaper with real punch

A local newspaper with a difference. About local issues, about national issues, about hard news.

We donโ€™t think โ€œFluffy Kittens rescued on A303โ€ is a news story. If you donโ€™t either then you should read our newspaper for a change!

The Levellerยฎ reports on how life in our community is affected, whether thatโ€™s decisions made at Huish Episcopi Parish Council, South Somerset District or Somerset County Council or Westminster.
