THE DAME HAS MOVED HOUSE!

Malicious actors have damaged our much-loved community website using their contacts within Google. But we are not beaten....

Volunteers from across the borough have organised a replacement website fthn.uk

PLEASE GET THE MESSAGE OUT!

JUDGING DAVID LINDSAY

 

What is Cllr Lindsay guilty of? 

Is he guilty of making a very stupid observation redolent of many upper middle-class men of his background and vintage? 

Yes, is the answer.

Is he a racist?...No! 

Lindsay is one of the best resident-facing councillors this Borough has. 

That's not just the Dame's opinion but one shared by residents from across the borough irrespective of who they are and their politics. When asked to help he gets stuck in.

When Thames Water flooded the Borough with sewage Lindsay fought unrelentingly for victims.

The Dame got a Whats App from an avowed and influential Labour propagandist. She was blunt in saying Lindsay will be very much missed by residents.

Lindsay took the job of councillor and mayor very seriously.

He is a good man and should be remembered for that not a stupid aberration.

DEMONSTRATE TONIGHT AGAINST MEGA GAMBLING JOINT IN EARLS COURT RD

Demonstration here tonight.

Residents around Earls Court Road are up in arms over the plan for Silvertime(Silvermine, more like it) to open a mega gambling joint in the old Lloyds Bank Building.

When Silvertime tried to vary usage in Chinatown it met massive opposition. LINK and again in Harlesden LINK more protests.

This anti-social monster will open 24/7 and be on four floors

It will be much larger and in a more prominent location than the current Silvertime gambling joint. A resident representative said "We believe that the increase or expansion of these shops is not beneficial to the safer, healthier, and pedestrian-friendly high street that our community so desperately needs.

If this goes ahead it will undermine all the different initiatives that are being developed to support the recovery of our high street.

Inward investment into the area (such as upgraded hotels) will be deterred and place at further risk vulnerable people living in the area"

The Dame agrees with all this and encourages everyone to join the demonstration this evening at 6.00pm outside the old Lloyds Bank on the corner of Hogarth Rd.

IAN HENDERSON AND THE LIES OF THE MAD LEFT

 

Henderson speaking on the Grenfell tragedy

The crazed lefties hate Ian Henderson but is that a reason to insinuate he had something to do with the Grenfell fire?

Using the tragedy to attack Ian is in the worst possible taste.

He was not even on the council!

In fact, he was busy fighting to save Sutton Estate and generally pointing out the inadequacies of most housing associations.

Henderson was a highly regarded councillor...a shame the Left forced him out.

GOVERMENT STEALS IDEA FROM FTHN!

In 2018 this idea was floated on the Hornet's Nest. 

Fast forward to 2024 and the government is considering the idea!

STOP VIOLENT CRIME. EXPORT IT

Dear Dame

I have just returned from Bulgaria.

Bulgarian prisons are empty( one assumes their criminals are in the UK)

Violent crime in our cities is now of such a magnitude that we should consider this stratagem.

We agree with the governments of Poland, Bulgaria and Romania they accept UK prisoners convicted of violent crime.

Our prisoners are sent to serve their sentences in prisons in those countries sited close to Ryanair/Easyjet destinations so that prisoner’s families are able to visit. We charter Ryanair planes to transport prisoners.

Currently, it costs the UK government £50,000 a year to house a prisoner.

In Eastern European countries the annual cost is £1500/2000...so what are the benefits?

1.   We export our violent prisoners to friendly neighbouring countries

2.   Provide those countries with a boost to their economies

3.   Suspend our prison building and renovation programme saving hundreds of millions

4.   Stop violent crime overnight

5.   Give our violent convicts the opportunity to quickly learn a new language under the tutelage of a friendly Balkan warder.

Just an idea, dear Dame

Yours faithfully,

XXXXXX

LEADER SAYS TIME FOR CHANGE...YES, GO AND GO NOW!

 

Open letter to the bereaved and survivors of Grenfell 

 
Finally, we know this is not an ending point, justice is still to be served. The Inquiry report creates urgent impetus for change – here at the Council, and no doubt nationally too. Grenfell can never be allowed to happen again. 
 
Cllr Elizabeth Campbell, Leader of Kensington and Chelsea Council

TIME TO RESIGN

 

It is very simple. 

No Cabinet member at the time of the Grenfell tragedy should be part of the current leadership team.

In fact, any leadership team member associated with Grenfell should have stood aside years ago. 

It's called 'collective responsibility'.

There are sufficient well-qualified Leadership team members capable of taking over the reins.

A reader comments...

Sir Martin Moore Bick referred to the Memoli Report which, amongst other things, looked in to the TMO's relationship with Council tenants. (the report Robert Black claims not to have seen!)

Maria Memoli made reference to the "them and us" culture between TMO staff and tenants in 2009. The TMO treated Grenfell tenants disgracefully up until the fire in 2017 just as it had done with all of its tenants since the year dot. Thanks to Memoli, the situation was put on record in 2009. Sir Martin stated that the TMO had failed in allowing relations with tenants to deteriorate to this extent.

In 2009, the TMO had an opportunity to address this matter and improve. It did not do so.

The following councillors were on the TMO Board in 2009 and were there to protect the Council's interests. This is what each of them did about the relations between the TMO and tenants:-

In 2017, Cllr. Emma Dent Coad told BBC Radio London, there was nothing an opposition councillor could do. She should resign her seat in St. Helen's Ward. (Recording of that interview is available.)

Elizabeth Campbell did nothing and should now hang her head in shame and resign her seat on the Council. She always seemed to look down on the propertyless who paid rent to the Council.

Maighread Condon did nothing. She no longer serves the Council.

Councillor Quentin Marshall did nothing. He tried to cover up a complaint made by Grenfell tenants at a Council Committee that he chaired. Thanks to Councillor Mackover the cover up did not wash. Marshall  should now resign his seat on the Council.

SCOTT DYLAN AND HIS MENTAL HEALTH...."METHINKS HE DOTH PROTEST TOO MUCH"

click on the image to enlarge

At the beginning of 2018, the Secretary of State for Business and Trade commenced an action to disqualify Scott Dylan. The action was halted as Dylan claimed 'mental health issues.

Several years later Dylan was found guilty of contempt of court in a High Court £13.8 million case brought by Barclays Bank. 

Dylan and associates are due to be sentenced in October.

In this latest case, Dylan tried for an adjournment, again based on 'mental health issues'.

His fellow defendant, Jack Mason had his passport removed as a flight risk. 

Mason asked for an adjournment because he had an appendicectomy a few months before and that was refused!

This time around, the High Court judge The Honourable Mr Justice Rajah was unmoved by Dylan's appeal

" The court denied the adjournment request based on insufficient medical evidence supporting the defendants' unfitness"

Judge Rajah is a senior and experienced judge. 

He may wish to ask his junior colleague at Manchester County Court why, after several years, no progress was made to continue the disqualification process.
