The most indolent and useless of councillors is Mary Weale. Nominally, she is supposed to represent the residents Brompton and Hans Town Wards; however, she is rarely seen by residents and NEVER responds to emails.
Weale will go down in Borough history for her idiotic observation about a resident's protest, " we hear, but we don't listen". That rather matches that windbag, Daniel Moylan, claiming, "we know best".
When you consider that some of the UK's most successful and accomplished residents live here this duo's arrogance knows no bounds.
Weale used to work as an insurance broker but was 'let go' in traumatic circumstances and with a sudden income drop.
However, the gang at Hornton St was there with a 'helping hand' and Mary, in short order, suddenly found herself in the Cabinet with a nice £40,000 year allowance. RBK&C is a bit like an upmarket DHSS! By the way, Mary, where can we find your expenses?

Councillor Mary Weale, lead council member for communities with responsibility for carnival, said: "This year's Notting Hill Carnival was different to any other, the Grenfell Tower fire was something that we all thought about.
"However, it was heartening to see the numbers of people that came to carnival and the many who stopped and reflected at the minute's silence on Sunday and Monday.
"The challenge our council officers and SUEZ face clearing up after one of Europe's biggest street parties before people head off to work on Tuesday morning is a staggering task.
Since the overnight departure of PR head, Fitzpatrick, one wonders who comes up with this syrupy rubbish.
The compulsion of these Tory women (this one is another daughter of an Earl) to get up and say some nonsense in order to get noticed is bordering on a sickness. We might as well be listening to Cllr bird brain Faulks ("K&C is the best Council in the UK") or Council Leader vapid Campbell ("Holland Park School cost nothing").
ReplyDeleteCllr Weale may think that "it was heartening to see so many people come to Carnival" and be so carried away to make this a Press Statement. But as Cabinet Member for Communities she should spend some time with the Communities in North Kensington who are subjected to three days of hell and mess at the end of August every year. And she should reflect on the law and order costs, including nearly 1000 arrests by police.
Cllr Weale ("we agreed to listen but not to hear") no doubt apes her Leader and has never visited a Tower Block in the Borough. That would be just too vulgar.
What a silly, deluded woman.
Instead of stopping for a minute of silence in front of Grenfell Tower it would have been preferable for Councillors to do their job properly and avoid the fire in the first place.
DeleteNew rich Campbell likes an Earl's daughter at her side
DeleteWho are the other Earl's daughters on the Council?
DeleteCllr Fielding-Mellen is the step daughter of an Earl. Failed fag salesman and disgraced ex Leader Cllr Cockle loved a bit of toff. Gave Rock a big hand up.
DeleteNote For Editors. Disgraced ex Deputy Leader Cllr Fielding-Mellen was in charge of the Grenfell Tower refurbishment.
@19:11 I didn't know 'he' was a transgender. One learns something new everyday.
DeleteWell Michelle Obama seems to be a transgender so anything can be possible now.
If you have nothing to say then don't say it.
ReplyDeleteI like the term an "upmarket DHSS." Councillor Mary Weale is no different to Councillor Emma Dent Coad MP. Councillor Emma Dent Coad MP is on the "upmarket DHSS" too. She is "double dipping" drawing her parliamentary salary with an RBK&C Social Fund top up of around £13, 000. No wonder she was so upset to be sacked as the Leader of Labour Councillors because her Social Fund payment was reduced by about £10K when she got the sack.
ReplyDelete12.13 What a greedy pair.
DeleteDon't really think now is the time to have an election in Golborne Ward. Far more responsible to deal with the victims of the fire .Which EDC has been outstanding .
DeleteEDC has never been "outstanding" in her life.
DeleteDo you mean outstanding at claiming Gravy Train Supplementary Benefit.
She did not excel on the TMO
Delete12.13. Scroungers
Delete"RBK&C is a bit like an upmarket DHSS!"
ReplyDeleteAh Dame, but they don't have to go through BS work capability assessment or other SS whipping their ar$e and no sanction either.
Will they get punished if they can't produce the receipts and list of legitimate expenses? Is it something that we can FOI to scrutnize?
ReplyDeletetechnically, you have the right to do so, but think that it would be very hard to produce the paperwork.. Good luck though
DeleteShe looks happy enough though. Good for her.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fake . We eat but we do not put on weight . Weighty Weale has put on at least a stone since she got her nose in the 'Trough '.
ReplyDeleteand she will continue to do so; the 'trough' is bottomless, connected to the fetid swamp, in which they all wallow in unabashed indolence.
DeleteIt is sad to see EDC double-dipping as well as Borwick. I thought she ad more principles. However, she can resign in November and then there will be no need for a by election in Golborne. And she can carry on working for Golborne residents as she is their MP.
ReplyDeleteThe reason she stays on the Council is not to ensure that people get the best representation possible. It is a tactic she agreed with Corbyn to ensure that she can scream loudly and often about how "these nasty Tories" are not just responsible for the Grenfell Tower but for everything for which she has no answer herself. She wants the Tories to chuck every penny of the money held on RBK& C's reserve account to every pauper that she thinks needs to be looked after by the state.
Delete13.57 Coad has her nose in the trough alright - the greedy double dipping socialist scrounger.
ReplyDeletePlease tell the Dame what Borwick is doing- How is she sponging off the Tax Payer or Council Tax Payer?
