THE SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOUR OF AN EX LEADER

Pooter Cockell embarrassed the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea.
His extraordinary expense claims were the subject of constant national media comment and the Dame is proud to have played her part in exposing his bizarre ways and blocking his lusted after peerage....Milord Pooter, my foot!


POOTER, MY DEAR COUSIN, THE DAME, SAYS
YOU ARE A REAL PIECE OF WORK!
However, the Dame hears the silly fellow still believes he has influence. He is furiously trying to persuade the planning committee and ward councillors they should pass the application to develop the Heythrop College site for luxury planning without any affordable housing and exploiting a loophole.
You can read about this scam of a scheme HERE
A SCAM!

If permission is granted residents and visitors will face years of misery.

Scrabbling around, looking for income, Pooter became chairman of a minor lobbying operation called Cratus so one assumes it's Cratus who are promoting this unwanted intrusion into an oasis of calm.

It would seem that horrid little Cratus has had quite a turnover of shareholders since the arrival of Pooter....oh, and a bit of difficulty about conflict in the Isle of Wight.
ISLAND ISSUES

This is another Newcombe moment for the planning committee. 
Throw it out or risk a resident rebellion.

  1. Ex Leaders should stay well clear of their old patch. And ex Leaders with "history" should know that they are a liability.

    The developer is playing a dangerous game if he is paying good money to get Pooter to support the Kensington Square project. The developer is already lumbered with his own history of project companies called "Shoot From The Hip Ltd" and "Sexylicious Behaviors Ltd". Adding disgraced ex Leader Cll Cockle (and Cractus) to the cocktail is inviting an enormous hangover.

    Any involvement from Merrick Cockell with this project should raise red flags and result in a definite "NO". The man is a liability

  3. PooteR's PR massage creature Cratus is also contracted by the landowner of another elephant in the RBKC room - the Forum Holiday Inn hotel on Cromwell Road, due for demolition and rebuild.
    Cratus (as Kratos) was one of Zeus's enforcers.
    Backdoor Pooter at it again - Kensington Square, the Forum HI: Anymore?

  4. Yes, the big red flag should go up pronto... What is interesting is that this blog uses a picture of Pooter, which is at least 25 years out of date.... very much like the few published images of our dear Dame...:-)

    1. Sad Badger, unbeknownst to you the Dame has often espied you and your brood snuffling though the dustbins in Holland Park.
      She is that tall and distinguished nonagenarian with her companion.
      She has found a more topical pic of the ghastly Sir Pooter

  5. Cockell will have sold himself and Cactus to the client as someone "who knows the intricate workings of Hornton Street, has contacts at the highest level, and is able to create a following wind for the Kensington Square project".

    What he will have omitted to say is that the Dame and her hornets know him for who he is and will leave no stone unturned to expose him (again) for the bounder that he is.

  6. Cratus also employs the lovely Bob Neill MP. You cannot be serious? I am afraid it is true. If ever there were reasons to avoid this scheme the involvement of Cratus is enough on its own.

    I see the Dame is in South America.....
    Were she to be a UK resident let her be assured that my lawyer, Mischon de Reya would be demanding retractions. Her Majesty and I had a fascinating conversation about my glorious career as leader of RBK&C. She has even asked Lady Cockell and I to one of her garden parties.

  8. Lady Cockell and me. I think Cllr Palmer must be impersonating you.

      Sneer you might, 16:50 but I have never pretended to any education. In fact, my first job upon leaving Frensham Heights Public School was the marketing of tobacco products.

    2. Pooter, Frensham Heights, now closed after a sex scandal, was a very minor boarding school for mittel Europeans

    1. A couple of observations about these videos. First, Pooter is obviously missing "public" life and wants to make a come back. Congratulating himself about his big brand role in Kensington and Chelsea. No doubt hoping that there is enough distance of time since he was dumped for people to forget why he was dumped. Not a hope in hell Pooter - the Hornets are on to you.

      Second, our boy is still a very impressionable adolescent who loves to adopt whatever seems to be "cool". Check out the videos again. He has started to wear his neck tie "Trump Style" ie hanging below the belt to the mid fly. What a pathetic creature is this.

    Thanks to the Dame, none of us are under any illusions about the jumped fag salesman who grabbed the big corner office in Hornton Street and thought no one would notice that he was using the Mayor's Bentley to transport himself to Heathrow for his all expenses paid weekends in the Big Apple

    1. Weekends on the Council Tax.........

      Delete
  12. Two council tax spenders were standing for Chairmanship of the Local Govt Association. Lord Hannigfield from Essex (the Council Leader and pig farmer) and Pooter Cockell from Kensington and Chelsea (the Council Leader and retired fag salesman). Mysteriously, Hanningfield retired from the race and gave Pooter an uncontested run. It was only six months later that the press announced that Hanningfield was arrested for stealing council money and making false House of Lords expense claims and he was subsequently sent to jail.

    Fag salesmen and pig farmers are to be treated with caution. Extreme caution.
