GOOD NEWS FOR LINDA WADE: RECYCLED COUNCILLOR TO REPLACE CLLR SPALDING

The Dame has had to delete certain comments concerning Cllr Wade. The comments were so far-fetched and untrue as to be defamatory. The Dame has occasionally critiqued Wade but never for her 100% commitment to residents. 

She is an excellent, hard-working councillor


Cllr Max Chauhan was so flipping hopeless as a Queen's Gate he was given the heave-ho.

Being booted out might have led Max to feel he had his fill of local politics.

It seems not. The Leader, who must be obeyed in all things, has dictated Max should be recycled and replace dedicated Cllr Spalding.

Linda Wade must be breathing a sigh of relief knowing she has only this lightweight to worry about.

PUTRID'S RELIGIOUS OUTPOST HERE IN THE ROYAL BOROUGH PAYS NO BUSINESS RATES


Smack, bang in the midst of the Royal Borough is an outpost of Putrid Putin's favourite church, The Russian Orthodox Church headed by Putrid's 'spiritual adviser' and co-warmonger, Patriarch Kirill. 

The question the Council needs to ask itself is whether a church in London financed by the Russian Orthodox Church should be exempted from Business Rates: indeed, the Government needs to check the church accounts to see how much money is flowing in from Russia.


with the Archbishop of Canterbury


The Patriarch is no ordinary man of the cloth. Here he is with his friend

 

On his wrist he flaunts £20,000 diamond flecked  Breguet watch. This was clearly viewable when, with his hand raised, he blessed Putrid and his 'Holy War' against innocent Ukraine.

Kirill, another ex-KGB operative, is supposed to have a fortune of $4 billion built up via his 'cigarette importing business'


This interview with www.Global Resources Partnership.com is a must  WATCH if you need to know exactly what is happening.

BORIS JOHNSON IS NO CHURCHILL

Ukraine needs support but best done through the united voice of European leaders singing from the same carefully orchestrated hymn sheet.

Boris Johnson blunders around thinking his ghastly pastiche of Churchillian rhetoric will distract from his catastrophic leadership: it just makes him an embarrassment. This showed at the NATO meeting where he was studiously ignored.

Johnson needs to zip it up. He makes this country an unnecessary target for Russian vengeance just to save his job.

His behaviour, like his appearance at the NATO meeting, is a disgrace.

Now his Cabinet colleague, Ben Wallace, is infected by the boss's posturing. 

In days past a Secretary of State for Defence taken in by crude pranksters would have resigned in shame. Still, what would be worse is his thick deputy, James Heappey.

CLOSE TO 2000 VIEWS TODAY

 


Cllr in Waiting Eva Garbut accused the dear old Dame of recruiting fellow members of her Darby & Joan Club to sit and click away on her little blog to get the viewings up to the near 2000 today. 

Eva? You are so naughty and ageist.


THE DENT COAD FACTION SCORNS THE HEAD OF STATE

 

The only Labour Councillor attending

We have a Head of State: Her Majesty, The Queen. 

At 95 she still is going strong doing her duty.

The Dent Coad Labour Faction hate the Queen. To show their contempt they refused to attend the Jubilee Commemoration Service at St Mary Abbots Church.

The sole councillor to represent the Labour Party was Cllr Henderson.

It may, to some, seem unimportant but the message is clear.... the rump of the local Labour Party like nothing about this country; its history or traditions.

As usual, they are out of step with how the majority of the people feel about Her Majesty.

Thank you, Cllr Henderson for your own great service to all residents: you will be missed.

THE DAME SAVAGED BY A DEAD SHEEP

 


  1. The Dame's horrible, sinister 'handlers'



  2. As Tory low fly blog you main aim is to

    Bring down Labour movement in this Royal Brought do body will watch your greed.

    You doing it

    Through gossip, falsehood,

    misrepresentation, slander

    and other nasty games.

    You aim at Labour before the May election.

    This is how 2 million Russian cash is spent on top of 160 000 for a tennis match with Boris.

    Lard of Siberia among our law makers, billions ' misplaced' by this government of corruption and fake news, parties after parties during the lockdown

    That's what you bring to the table against working people strangling to pay bills or read kids..

    Any idiot opening 000 s times your so called blog contributes

    to the number of readers.

    I can spent 1 hr of my life doing it and your will get 1 million views

    by one person clicking on this lack of reliable information ' blog'.

    Halfwits,

    sad to say claiming such

    popularity

    bigger that

    The Times itself.

    I cannot see Ian expressing his unhappiness

    Of being retired in the Guardian or Evening Standard

    It's your Tory obsessed with splitting Labour

    Nobody in right mind as Labour will turn to this gossip, nasty ' blog'

    You yourself Tory write comments

    And you blablablablablablabla

    Will not stop Labour challenging your

    Curroption stupidity vecuousness ugliness

    You been showing since 2010 destroying this country and people's lives.

A BROKEN LOCAL PARTY SETS RECORD

A kind reader asked the number of views since publication.

At 507 a record has been set. 

This demonstrates the concern residents have for the extreme left-wing manipulations leading to the 'liquidations' of Henderson and colleagues.

A very sad state of affairs

A BROKEN LOCAL PARTY

Yesterday, close to 1800 views....well done, 'a reader writes'

Whoever claims no one reads the Dame needs to open their eyes.





A reader writes....


Very concerned that Emma Dent Coad is a Labour candidate in these local council elections in May and Ian Henderson is not. 
Would someone in the Labour Party care to comment on the following facts:-

  • Ian has no form for racism or antisemitism.

  • Ian has been an outstanding champion of social housing tenants, without the support of the Labour Party. Ian and a guy called Andrew saved the Sutton Dwellings in Chelsea from destruction without any help from the Council.

  • Ian rolled his sleeves up at a foodbank to get food to the needy and was criticised because a Tory was doing likewise at the same time. Getting food into starving bellies is not a priority for Kensington Constituency Labour Party if a Tory is doing the same thing at the same time.

  • Emma Dent Coad was exonerated of racism by Corbyn, a white middle-class man, whereas Kemi Badenoch, a black woman MP, found Emma's sketch of a black man being hanged shocking.

  • Emma served on the TMO Board as a Company Director for four and half years. Tenants suffered under her nose. Whereas, Ian did everything he could to help tenants.

Just how vile does a candidate have to be to be considered suitable for election as a Labour candidate by the Kensington Constituency Labour Party?

Just how good does a candidate have to be to be shown the door by Kensington Constituency Labour Party and sacked by their selection committees?

'BORIS BOYS' WIN NATIONAL LOTTERY

As The Dame tottered out to buy her weekend croissant she said hello to Sir Keith Mills. Keith was looking rightly pleased with himself for he had just fronted up the successful  National Lottery bid. 

Like business partner, Karel Komarek Keith has come A LONG WAY from a poverty-stricken background in Hackney Downs.


Czech gets Lottery Cheque


Typically and belatedly questions are now being asked about Komarek; his Eastern European business dealings and suitability to run a 'national treasure'(said sarcastically)

Komarek was very smart. 



Keef and Coe

He stuffed his bid team with 'Friends of Boris' so we have the ghastly Lordly Coe and Sir Keef standing by to twist the arm of their old mate Boris and fix the outcome

Is this really the way to run a country or is it Boris looking to his financial future?

CONSERVATIVE CAMPDEN WARD RESIDENT WON'T VOTE FOR FAULKS!

 


Dear Dame

I don't often read your jottings but read your story about Victoria Borwick. 

I also saw that you had written on Cllr Faulks: they are as different as chalk and cheese.

In my dealings with Victoria Borwick, nothing was ever too much trouble. 

I have only once dealt with Cllr Faulks. 

Without putting too fine a point on it I found it an unpleasant experience and one I would not wish to repeat.

Lady Faulks is arrogant, churlish, and full of herself. 

In my experience of life, those with these character defects are generally none too bright. 

I am astonished that someone quite as stupid and insensitive as Cllr Faulks has been given the responsibilities she has. Even more galling is to realise we pay her an allowance of close to £1,000 a week. 

What a gravy train!

I am a Conservative and live in Campden Ward but I will vote for whoever the Lib Dem candidate is rather than demean myself voting for this woman. 

It is extraordinary that Victoria Borwick's talent is not used.

Yours in disgust

A Campden Ward resident and now a non Conservative

WHITHER BORWICK: A GREAT SERVANT OF THE PEOPLE


It seems from these comments there are more than a few people puzzled as to what has happened to hardworking Victoria Borwick.





    1. Is Borwick still a Councillor?

      Reply
    2. No, that is a shame. She worked hard on the ground for residents

        I am surprised to know this. Every day I see her delivering food parcels to the food bank in North Kensington in her old VW Golf. Hard not to notice her red hair. Assumed she is a Councillor.

      2. Very strange that such a dedicated public service person is not a Councillor. Does not matter if it is Tory, Labour or Liberal. She cares, she works hard and my goodness, she makes a difference. Would prefer her on the Tory side but residents need such people to represent them.

WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT CLLR LADY FAULKS....

Swanning around

There are excellent, hard-working Conservative councillors...Will, Cyron, Freeman, McVeigh, Thalassites, Taylor-Smith all spring to mind.

Then there is Cllr Faulks. Faulks is the odd one out. 

Her portfolio of  Economy, Employment and Innovation is a vital one yet, surprisingly, the lady has no real business experience-apart from helping the super-rich to home in on multi-million pound homes.

For many years Justin Downes ran a co-working office in Chelsea. For a minimal rents 'start up's' had access to an office. Over 200 companies launched themselves from his space.

Bright ideas and Lady Faulks are poor bedfellows. This is 'Dave' Fletcher. 


'Dave' persuaded Faulks to jump into bed and rent him our library space for just £5 per sq.ft.!

The 'likely lad's' 'pitch' was that he would provide desks and 'mentoring' to renters. 

Dave and Cllr Faulks have one thing in common...they are clueless about business or innovation! 

Still, looking at The Workary's CIC accounts Dave managed to extract close to £80,000 a year plus profit share so he was on the ball when it came to looking after 'Dave'.

When Downes realised he was being put out of business through Faulks's folly the Council rapidly cancelled the contract.

Sadly, the years of having to compete with a favoured supplier practically closed his business.

He has now escalated his complaint to the Local Government Ombudsman.

But the moral of the story is this....Cllr Faulks is a danger to local business. 

No wonder eyes roll when the name of Cllr Faulks is mentioned.

DO NOT VOTE FOR CARPET BAGGERS

How extraordinary the Royal Borough is so bereft of high-quality candidates it has to import Australians and people from Norf London.

Sonia from the Outback 

Yet, Victoria Borwick who faithfully served this Borough and its residents for years is shunted to one side in a way reminiscent of Mrs. Dent Coad and her machinating.

It really is quite wrong that the taxpayers of this Borough should have to be represented by those with just tenuous or non-existent connections to our Borough. 

Carpet bagging is an 'original political sin' and residents should refuse to vote for these imports.

This Is North Kensington deftly hits the nail on the head HERE

FRIEND OF THE DAME PRANKS PUTRID PUTIN'S FAVE PROFESSOR


Putrid's fave academic!


Professor Hayward is a senior academic at Edinburgh University specialising in a particularly useless bit of academia...Environmental Politics-whatever that might be. When not boring on about his tedious subject he is tweeting his full blooded support for the murderous psycho, Putrid Putin.

So a prankster emailed  this

to tim.hayward

It is very sad you are the victim of oppressive right wing forces.

It is clear that Ukraine dictatorship is run by hateful people who have deliberately planned assaults against Ukrainian citizens to propagate Fake News.
We need men like you to fight for the truth and speak out.
Good wishes

A normal bloke would see think this a bit odd and firmly refute the inference that the Ukranians were bombing and killing their own: not the dimwitted Prof.
This is how this pompous guy responded...

MICK MAY....ANOTHER VALUED RESIDENT


Another sad passing....

Mick May was a resident of Campden Ward who gave up a career at Kleinwort's to help ex-offenders to find work.

He said his heart was never in the City and proof of that was buying the FT just twice in his life.

Many will be grateful to this kind man especially the thousands of ex-prisoners he set up with work.

THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH IN KENSINGTON SAYS NO COMMENT ON UKRAINE

 

Dear Dame,

It's 'orthodox' behaviour for a religious organisation to condemn violence....but not our local Russian Orthodox church here in Ennismore Gardens where I am a congregant.

When I called to ask about the Ukraine invasion I was told 'we don't want to get drawn in'.

Of course, our Patriarch Kirill is a good friend and spiritual adviser to Mr. Putin.

Blagosloveniye vam dorogaya Dama

'Babushka' Lebedev

THIS IS NORTH KENSINGTON UPBRAIDED BY THE DAME!

Sometimes the Dame has to have stern words with her co-blogger THINK.

The Dame was shocked by THINK's take on the May elections especially this below showing Cllr Weale with her head poking out of a wheelie bin! Incroyable.... Is it a recycling bin?

You too can be as shocked by THINK's insolence to our leaders by reading SHOCKED BY THINK

CLLR CAMPBELL AND A STATE OF WAR

Dear Dame,

Last night I woke in a cold sweat after an unimaginable nightmare.

I dreamed the Russians had declared war on us and that the Council's war footing was being driven by Cllr Campbell aided and abetted by her sidekick, Cllr Faulks.

Please tell me that in such a dire situation as this Cllr Kim Taylor-Smith would take over.

Yours frantically,

Lady........m-.........t

CHINESE WHISPERS....CHINESE BUY A CHELSEA POST OFFICE

Chinese tentacles extend deep into Chelsea with the acquisition of the old Post Office in Chelsea Manor Street.




The Dame hears that the Marxist Chinese paid around £41million with the intention of building 30/40 luxe flats. 

With all this sanctioning of totalitarian regimes how long before the building gets sequestered.

PUTIN'S BRITISH COLLABORATORS TO BE NAMED AND SHAMED


a typical oligarch


Johnson has much to thank Putin for..... not least the invasion. 

This gave the buffoon the chance to strut his ghastly faux Churchillian stuff and evade scrutiny over previous cock-ups.

The Dame got a well-deserved kicking for suggesting that the Labour Party had colluded with oligarchs. 

Thus, it seems only fair top Conservatives admit links to oligarchs: inheritors of the proceeds of organised crime.

Evolve Politics has a fascinating article HERE about the financial penetration of the top echelons of the Party by some very wicked men and women.


The circled lady, Lubov Chernukhin, is the wife of Putrid's former deputy finance minister. Mr & Mrs C have given £514,000 to the Conservative Party...why?

A blatant example of oligarch 'matiness' is George Osborne rowing over to board Derispaska's yacht with his friends Nat Rothschild and Lordly Mandelson. 

And the sinister-looking Ben Elliott whose company procures services for these horrible people.

And it's not just Putin... David Cameron and his business partner, Lordly Chadlington, were all over the Chinese like cheap suits. 

There seems to be a predilection for cosying up to ruthless regimes by certain senior Conservatives

Edward Lucas, the eminent expert on Putin and his gang is compiling a list of British professionals who have collaborated with this rogue state. 

Lawyers, accountants, PR companies, estate agents, property search agents are all likely to be in the frame: many will be based in this Borough and maybe many connected to the Conservative Party.

So...names to the Dame, please.

STILL WATERS RUN DEEP....APPEASEMENT DECISION AT CHELSEA HOUSEBOATS MEETING?


 



The Dame writes....

This small notice HERE on the RBKC website signifies the end may be nigh for a tug of war over accesses the Chelsea river moorings.

The irreproachable Kim Taylor-Smith appears to be stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Last year RBKC served a Section 25 termination notice on the Lease of Chelsea Yacht & Boat Company, the mooring operator at Old Ferry Wharf. This was to distance the Council from allegedly 'overzealous/aggressive' commercial behaviour at the moorings.

This threatened to collapse the financial pyramid of cards supporting a £12m loan note from Knight Dragon group, an apartment builder which owns Greenwich Peninsula. 

The moorings operator, Andrew Moffat, has form with the Dame. His publicised plan had been to evict the existing charming medley of Chelsea houseboats so he can sell new, massive and very ugly concrete ones!

This, he hopes, will get him out of his financial black hole and make millions.

Currently, it seems Mrs Moffat is driving things.

Mrs M is a formidable social alpinist and trilled she was 'thrilled to pieces' at meeting Prince William.

The HORNET and here HORNET is required reading if you need to know about the Moffat family!

The Moffat's, now seem to have given up the pesky time-consuming chore of filing company accounts.

Chelsea Yacht & Boat Company Limited is a year out of date (last filed accounts to 21/06/2019).

Cadogan Pier Limited,a related company recently received a Strike Off notice.

So why is our council in such an unseemly hurry to strike a deal with an enterprise so non-compliant in its fiduciary responsibilities?

Moffat's companies are groaning under mountains of debt.

Will appeasing Chelsea Yacht & Boat Company by agreeing on new terms on 14th March secure the future of the incumbent houseboats?

Or will giving control back to the Moffat's seal the houseboat owners' fate forever?



COUNCILLORS BASK IN PRAISE FROM THE DAME

The Dame pats herself; the brilliant  Cllr Sof McVeigh and pro resident Cllr Johnny Thalassites on the back! 

Months ago she read about audio cameras. 

Immediately, she sent the details to Sof who passed them to Johnny. 

In short order, a trial was started and cameras placed strategically in trouble spots.

Well done, Sof, Johnny and Ken Thompson, Philip Richardson and Graham Shoesmith, the Council officers running this brilliant scheme. 

What we need now are much tougher fines and penalty points. The proof, though, is in the pudding: this scheme works.

Here is the full article in NOISE


From the Daily Mail

Flash car fans who insist on making noise when driving face £100 fines, after almost 10,000 vehicles triggered noise-detecting acoustic cameras in one London borough in the last year alone.

Four cameras were installed in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, and between February 2021 and 2022, caught 289 motorists driving their cars at over 100 decibels. For cars registered since 2016, the legal limit is 74dB.

When an increase of 10dB is roughly a doubling of loudness, exposure to more than 85dB for extended periods of time can cause permanent hearing damage.

CUT FOREIGN AID TO COUNTRIES GIVING MORAL SUPPORT TO PUTRID

Last year impoverished UK gave China close to £70 million.

How the Chinese must giggle at our puny attempt to play Lady Bountiful.

We should look at every country we splash out the £17 billion aid budget on. 

If they have been supportive of the Russian invasion of The Ukraine that aid should be diverted to The Ukraine.

WILL MOMENTUM CONDEMN THE PUTRID PUTIN?

Dear old Dame

North Kensington Labour is now a creature of Momentum.

Can we expect Emma Dent Coad and her crypto Commie cronies to condemn unreservedly the genocide being perpetrated by the Russian dictatorship?

K&C residents need to know whether Emma and colleagues are on the side of the angels or the devil.

Yours 

A real Labour Voter
