EX K&C MAYOR TO BUILD K'BRIDGE SKYSCRAPER

LEADER IN WAITING?













When the Dame put up this news of local interest she was absolutely serious when she said she was full of admiration for Cllr Gardner. Without attempting to influence opinion the Dame would like to report back that she has received feedback suggesting the majority of comments are quite unfair. The general perception is that Cllr Gardner is a first class, hardworking and honest councillor:one who works diligently for those who come to her for assistance.
We need more, not less, councillors of the calibre of Joanna Gardner. The comments remain, but it would be nice to see some pats on the back for a highly regarded councillor



A Tory peer and her daughter are being sued by Knightsbridge neighbours over what they fear is a threat to their “morning sunshine”.
The owners of 5 Trevor Square are angered by an application by Baroness Gardner of Parkes, 85, and her daughter, former Mayor of Kensington and Chelsea the Hon Joanna Gardner, to build to “unlimited height” behind the property.
The High Court writ claims this would block the morning sunlight which has been “enjoyed through the windows” for “nearly two centuries”.
The house is owned through an offshore company. Mark Sefton, representing the owners, is asking the court to declare that any such structure “would infringe the right to the access of light to 5 Trevor Square”.
He is also asking for legal costs.
Baroness Gardner joined the House of Lords in 1981 and is the only Australian woman to be elevated to the peerage.

  1. No doubt the daughter of the aged Australian baroness gave sterling advice in the background about how to "work" the planning system. As an insider at K&C's Hornton Towers she is more qualified than most to know how to get what she wants where planning matters are concerned.

  2. Having recently produced the "third" generation, Cllr Gardner no doubt has a keen eye on funding the future. Where better to dabble than sky high London property values and "mum's" initiative could pay off handsomely.

    Go for it girl!

  3. Does Joanna have a house in K&C that she do a basement excavation on? Lots of cash payback for you there, Councillor

    Australians (and South Africans) sometimes think that they can come to the UK and transplant their Wild West practices to Blighty.

    These new arrivals need to be brought to order and this is an opportunity to say "no"

    Pushing through her mum's planning application will be a full time job and more lucrative than the £70k pay check for the Leader of K&C.

    Cllr Gardner is not available

    1. Usual suspects and healthy democrats. We like to expose hypocrisy and puncture balloons. And it does the Gardners of this world the power of good to be brought back to earth when their little toes go flying off into the yonder.

      A little bit of transparency helps to moderate behaviour. In the early years of Pooter there were no FOI's and look at all the exploitation he got up to when he thought that he could entertain friends at top New York restaurants on a Saturday night, and charge it up to council tax. Our boy felt safe that no one was looking.

  11. There should be no doubt who is behind this rape of Knightsbridge. 85 year old women do not suddenly get a taste for property development. It is the ex Mayor of K&C and serving councillor who is pushing her Trojan Horse
