another useless quango
It's a badge of honour for the Dame she thwarted Merrick Cockell, a previous RBKC leader, in his efforts to become a 'new aristocrat' like Milordy Moylan.
Cllr Campbell, a protegee of the expense claiming magician has taken a leaf out of his book. Rumours abound that she plots to become Lady Campbell of Freshwater.
If you cannot recall Cockell's greed this makes useful reading
Cockell managed to boost his allowances to over £112,000 a year garnished with excessive luxury expense claiming.
Is Campbell trying to emulate her old master by building a parallel career with another useless quango, Central London Forward....a successor to closed down London Councils?
Pompously, Central London Forward claims its remit to improve every area of Central London's residents' lives,
Whether third rate councillors can make any difference to our lives lies a bigger question.
Is Campbell even the right person to be pushing herself forward?
She will go down in the history of London for two things:
- as Cabinet Member of RBK&C at the time of the Grenfell, inextricably bound up with collective Cabinet decisions involving the Tower
- And, more currently, the July floods that decimated homes and disrupted residents' lives
Campbell will try to deflect blame to Thames Water.
That won't wash.
In 2007 floods of similar magnitude hit the Borough.
Campbell was a councillor then who joined the chorus of 'Thames Water, you must do something".
Fourteen years on? Nothing has changed.
So when Campbell claims, "Our goal is to improve the lives of our residents by working together to drive inclusive growth within the Central London area, to ensure our resident’s access the skills, jobs, homes, and support required to benefit from Central London’s dynamic economy" take what she says for what it is..... pure bullshit.
Campbell has form and history for letting residents down on a grand scale.
She should not even be the Leader of our Council.
Does anyone knows actuals owns or writes for the Hornet. Who is the Dame? My tech guy tried to see who has ownership and came up against a North London brick wall. I have heard a score of names mentioned including my own.
ReplyDeleteIt cannot be you, Palmer; you can barely read or write
DeleteMany have tried to pin down ownership but with no success
ReplyDeleteCan comments be focused on the story, please.
ReplyDeleteCllr Campbell should be devoting her time to the difficult but vital task of building bridges with North Kensington residents, especially the Grenfell family. It is absurd that she is branching out at this time to fringe activities that have no purpose other than to promote herself to a wider world.
DeleteIt is not even as if she has something to offer.
It is all hot air.
DeletePlus a chorus of Weale and Faulks.
Well, it's not me!
ReplyDeletedizzy is trying to do a Pooter. But the Dame will trip her up. Silly cow
ReplyDeleteDame dizzy Campbell of Grenfell, in the Royal Borough Of Kensington and Chelsea. Wait until Justice4Grenfell get hold of that. dizzy will be in outer space before Cllr False can say boo
This Jessie Come Lately to the house of Boris is out of time. Seems as though he is about to be fired in which case dizzy evaporates too
DeleteCan't wait.
"We will forge positive visibility of women".
ReplyDeleteWhere does the birdbrain get this bullshit from? And does she understand that there is nothing "positive" about her champion "visible"?
Would readers please pause for a second and consider Cllr Weale ("We agreed to listen but not to hear") and Cllr False, who finds it difficult to string a sentence together, let alone a thought. These two are prime dizzy patronage dolly birds
Pathetic
Daniel Moylan has Campbell in his sights. He is moving by stealth and placing his people in position. The Dame rumbled the game and exposed the recent refresh of Queens Ward
ReplyDeleteThe Dame really cheers us officers up. We have such a giggle at some of the really useless councillors. The Leader is such a laugh. We have been told not to read the Hornet in the Town Hall but we all do.
