Dear Leader Pooter's Inspiration |
Has Pooter gone quite mad? That's the question worried colleagues are pondering. Deep in his bunker, below the car park in Hornton Street, Pooter was hard at work on plans to destroy his near nemesis, The Dame. Fear lurked in the eyes of his inner circle as they nervously huddled around him.
“Get Holgate down here” he screamed, spittle showering his entourage.
"Have you seen that Hornet piece by some officer I fired?”
Rounding on Holgate-one of the best and most ethical of the senior officers, Dear Leader screamed, “From today you will block Hornet: no one using my RBK&C server must be able to access her anti democratic rubbish”
Mild mannered Holgate attempted to warn Dear Leader it would just encourage staff and councillors to read and comment from their homes. It might even, warned Holgate, get into the national press. "What happens if the Standard or Telegraph pick it up? We will be called Stalinist," said Holgate..
"Do as I say... Mr Fitzpatrick censors rude press comment about me in the councillor media digest. Fitzpatrick is a good man: he knows how to grovel.
So this poor, sad apology of a leader, Pooter Cockell, thinks he is some sort of Internet Canute, able to stop the tide of truth sweeping him out of Hornton Street....silly little chap!

"Increasingly, Officers trying to access comments posted on this blog are blocked by the Council's web-nanny software. I say increasingly as there are, almost daily, new criteria for its censorship. For example, the piece called "Barkhordar-A Champion of Democracy?" is blocked because it apparently contains "adult material". At least the IT department are in work. No redundancies there for the foreseeable. A frightened regime - but residents AND Councillors must do something to oust Pooter - a lot of talk here but what is actually happening?"
In the light of this Pooter could work in Press Relations in North Korea
ReplyDeleteWell said 13.38.
ReplyDeleteThis must be a Jubilee celebration that backfired. Cant be serious
ReplyDeleteIt happened for an hour...."Access Denied By Service Administrator"
ReplyDeleteand then lots of guff as to hey the Hornet was unsuitable. It stopped when
the Standard latched on to it!!
Cockell backed off
ReplyDeleteI would ban the Dame. It is causing us all embarrassment. Even though none of us read it we know what it says...if you understand what I mean because I don't
ReplyDeleteUp Yours you don't read and use a blindfold when you blog on it. I know. Just get real everyone reads it and everyone talks about it and not just in K&C

1 agree 10:27 but it is tough until residents rise up. Some needs to find a week of getting the Dame known amongst residents
ReplyDeleteThis is typical of tin pot dictatorships. Cut the people off from the oxygen of truth and democracy will wither

ReplyDeleteDame
ReplyDeleteThis is a true badge of success. Cockell is scared of you. He feels very threatened. Irony is a great weapon against dictators.
Where is Up Yours Palmer when Pooter needs him? A clown to defend a clown
ReplyDeleteUp Yours is fully engaged in Dame Hunting. Pooter has asked for the head of the Dame on a golden platter. Up Yours is hoping to please his master.
ReplyDeleteI am disappointed that no one has drafted a CV for Pooter. Councillor Fiona Buxton needs this urgently and Pooter has been unable to write it himself.
The Dame has had 3 messages from members of the the press asking for a reaction to her banning by Pooter.
ReplyDeleteShe has been kind and put it all down
to the Dear Leader's paranoia.
The Dame did try to construct a cv for her good friend Pooter: she failed. She has asked Buffy Buckmaster, our Mayor to help. Both were in the commodities business so Buffy might have some ideas as to how to 'slant' his experience
ReplyDeleteDame. I feel it is in the National Interest as Dave would say. I will try, but it is frankly a hurculean task
ReplyDeleteIt is good to see that Pooter pulled back with his stupid idea. All us officers check this site from home or our Ipads.
ReplyDeleteWe all think that he is quite incompetent and a laughing stock
Finding Cockell a new job is a hopeless cause. It is said that Phillipa Rose sent his CV to countless potential employers looking for a non exec. No one was interested. Hardly a surprise. Who would want him on their board of directors?
ReplyDeleteCockell banning internet access to FTHN, but allowing councillors such as Barry Phelps, Mark Daley and Andrew Lamont to send and receive filth via RBKC its email service, or accessing filth via tax payer funded allowances. You couldn't make it up!
