Lari....The Public School Enforcer Boy
If those on the outside ever wonder how the DentCoad/ Lari/Kear triumvirate maintains its grip on the constituency party and the selection of candidates etc. one has only to look at last week's, perhaps misnamed 'All members meeting'1. Notices of meetings are only sent out at the last possible moment with precisely 7 days' notice. This means that only those 'in the know' or with no other life outside the sectarian struggle are likely to attend.
The constituency party used to publish an annual calendar of meetings & events to encourage regular attendance by ordinary members.

But of course, this had to go if the will of the vanguard was to prevail
2. Any member who displays any independence of thought or failure to follow orders mysteriously disappears from the distribution list. Cllr. Lari ruthlessly controls who receives notices and is eligible to attend (remember that it was Lari alone who determined that former Cllr. Henderson was banned from meetings & former Cllr. Nail received no notices).

Lari used to boast that the constituency had over 1000 members but now he seems to show smiling satisfaction that only 37 loyalists turn up to ALL Member meetings - to receive their orders.
3. If by some miracle, anyone not part of the Leninist vanguard manages to make it to the meeting they will quickly find that, should they start to display independence of thought or simply ask awkward questions Cllr. Dent Coad will cut them off and even switch off the microphone to those who dispute her rulings or views.
4. For decades the constituency used to hold democratic, convivial and popular ward meetings which are constitutionally sovereign and served to feed in ideas and resolutions to what was supposed to be a representative General Committee.

As the branches proved to be difficult to control they were ruthlessly taken over,closed down & the 'Leninists' then vested all activities on 'ALL member' meetings to which not all members were invited and guest speakers were often not even party members.
They then constructed a mysterious 'Executive Committee' whose meetings are held in secret and whose minutes are never shared with elected councillors nor ordinary members.(It seems that deep down Dent Coad & Lari have more in common with the Illuminati than with Leninism )
5. The Covid lockdown proved highly advantageous for the triumvirate and meetings swiftly moved online. Online technology proved a deterrent for some older members but allowed many Corbynisters who were away at university or had even moved away to continue to participate & vote in Kensington matters.

It also made it easy for Cllr Lari to orchestrate events even when he was actually resident at the family's German Schloss whilst claiming to be toiling for the Revolution in grimy North Kensington.
The pandemic has now largely faded but Kensington Party events have still not returned to 'meetings in person' because online meetings remain much simpler to control.

It will be interesting to see if democratic, 'in-person meetings' will be restored in the autumn when the party moves on to select its Parliamentary Candidate
The dysfunctionality of the Kensington Labour Party is widely known across London and it will be interesting to know if the National Party will be willing and able to intervene to ensure that the Parliamentary selection is more democratic and successful than the local election fiasco.

Emma "Columbus Borgia de Borgia" Dent Coad is good at skullduggery for her own ends.She is definitely no feminist! She failed to speak out when it transpired that a senior man at the TMO had pornographic images on his computer. She always toed the "collective responsibility" line on the TMO Board- a right crawler.
ReplyDeleteAre you saying that Emma Dent Coad did speak out loudly and publicly that a TMO Official was turning women into objects by watching pornography on his computer in the TMO's offices.
DeleteYes, I am afraid that I am saying that Emma did not "speak out loudly and publicly" about a senior man at the TMO watching pornography on his computer in the offices of the TMO. Yes, he turned women into objects. His attitude to women played out in the way he treated women workers. I know because I worked there.
DeleteEmma Dent Coad did not publicly speak out and decry the excesses of the TMO until after the fire at Grenfell. After the fire, like every good political opportunist, she held forth and (from her experience of being a Director of the TMO) knew everything that was wrong with the TMO.
DeleteThe man in question was the Chairman of a Housing Association. What did Dent Coad think she was doing by doing nothing?
DeleteI think the Grenfell Tower Inquiry saw through Emma Dent Coad and her left wing games. They did not want to hear from the TMO Board Member who knew everything about that was wrong with the TMO who when challenged about doing nothing said that, " An opposition Councillor could nothing about the TMO." Everyone knows that is Emma's very own patent nonsense.
DeleteI watched the television programme, Grenfell, on BBC Four last night. I was struck by the numbers of people who complained about the TMO treating them very badly. In some cases, Emma Dent Coad was on the TMO Board when these people were experiencing truly appalling situations.
DeleteCan she please explain why she supported tenant management by doing nothing because an "opposition Councillor could do nothing" to improve anyone's lot at the hands of the TMO?
EDC now claims on Twitter to be a proud anti-racist campaigner.
ReplyDeleteWhen did all of this so called anti-racism start- after she abused Shaun Bailey AM for the colour of skin by drawing a hangman picture of him ?
Or was it after she expressed approval for unvarnished antisemitism on Twitter?
I am trying to find out more about the homophobic goings- on in Kensington Labour- can anyone help with this? We need to expose it.
"How she fixes by one who knows" must be able to throw some light on all of this homophobia with the local Labour Party.
ReplyDeleteNow come on, spill. You have split on the atrocious tactics of Dent Coad et al now spill with facts.
I wonder if people know at his banking job that he moonlights as a Corbynista with his midnight emails and threats to members who speak their minds? Perhaps it may be worth sending HR an email on how he behaves in public….
ReplyDeleteBy "he" who are you talking about and what is his job?
DeleteWas Lari implicated in "all of this homophobia?"
ReplyDeletePerhaps something the residents and Labour members should ask him on LGBT rights especially if he wants to run for MP given his public school/JP Morgan arrogance and sense of entitlement.
DeleteLari and, come to think of it, Dent Coad are the Labour Party's version of Boris Johnson. Arrogant, egotistical, narcissistic, racist /homophobic with a sense of entitlement and a belief that they are right about everything. And above all else, they mistakenly believe that they can do a job better than anyone else.
DeleteThat's right, Emma says she is upper class and Lari, with a public school education, is definitely middle class.
DeleteSurely anyone who says that they are Upper Class isn't ?
DeleteMiddle class is pushing it for Lari who has quite the ‘aristocratic’ family in his native Iran.
DeletePity he doesn't return his Native Iran and initiate democracy and freedom there instead of being a nuisance here
DeleteAnyone who claims to be a descendant of Christopher Columbus and the Borgias has an identity crisis. Emma told a bloke whom I know that she is classier than any of the Tories on the Council.
DeleteLari is hot tottie
DeleteHot tottie? That may me true but these allegations of homophobia against him need to be treated as seriously as the allegations of anti-semitism were against hard left members of the Labour Party.
DeleteIf people are into Stick insects, Sina looks like he hasn’t had a meal in years! I thought bankers had good canteens unlike the plebs in normal jobs
DeleteI am sure that Coad and Lari are united in denying homophobia. Coad denied her racism and she conned Corbyn and Abbott in to believing her.
ReplyDeleteNow that two British Nationals are facing a firing squad in Ukraine, will Emma Dent Coad now condemn her marxist comrade, Jeremy Corbyn MP. This delusional man suggested that existence of NATO was the reason for Putin's unlawful invasion of Ukraine. If Dent Coad fails to come out on the side of Ukraine and the Brits under sentence of death, she should be expelled from the Labour Party.
ReplyDeleteThere were nine other daft Labour MP's who backed Corbyn's ridiculous position; not including Claudia Webbe MP who is currently suspended from the Party. If Emma Dent Coad were now in Parliament, would she be another daft one to support Corbyn on this issue.
DeleteDespite repeated calls for EDC to denounce Corbyn over this issue she has not done so. EDC is a mother.
ReplyDeleteWould she be able to face the mothers of these men to say that Corbyn is right that NATO's existence is to blame for the situation in Ukraine and these men who have been treated disgracefully by the Putin regime are wrong?
Dent Coad's morality is questionable. Loyalty to Marxist Corbyn is all.
ReplyDeleteNow don't forget, Dent-Coad refused to speak out about the excesses of the TMO; and 72 people perished at Grenfell.
DeleteShe knew all about the TMO. She heard from the many, not the few, when she was a Director of the TMO. She also heard from the many, not the few, (when she was not on the TMO Board) as an opposition Councillor for five long years before Grenfell Tower fire.
Does Emma Dent Coad, hand on heart, think she was right to stay stum about the TMO with what came to pass at Grenfell?
Is she right not to Condemn Corbyn's support for Putin by blaming NATO for the situation in Ukraine?
Why did Labour Councillors in 2022, vote to make Emma their Convenor when she has form for:-
Delete(i) colluding with the Tories by supporting the Tenant Mis- management Organisation,
(ii) classism,
(iii) racism,
(iv) liking an anti-semitic social media feed,
(v) failing to back the widow of a man who died
in Grenfell Tower over the Fire Brigade's
actions,
(vi) treating Ian Henderson disgracefully.
(vii) doing the Convenor's job badly in 2013/2014.
(viii) not acting in the best interests of the Labour
Party by saying she does not understand
Kier Starmer - longing for Corbyn's Marxism.
What has happened to Cllr. Mo Bakhtiar ? Alone amongst the 'non Emma-ites' he seemed to survive the purge ( all be it by changing wards) but what has happened to him since the election. Unceremoniously dumped as group Leader and left without even a committee to sit on , he now seems to have vanished without trace. He needs to remember to put in an appearance at a council meeting soon or before he knows it David Kear will have him declared 'missing in action' and a by-election will be announced .
ReplyDeleteWhat did EDC do for Grenfell?
ReplyDeleteDo tell.
The late Francis O'Connor did more Grenfell than Emma Dent Coad ever did. It would have been good if Emma Dent Coad heaped as much praise on Francis O'connor as she did on Jeremy Corbyn.
DeleteDid the Grenfell people object to Dent Coad going to the service at Westminster Abbey? They objected to Tory politicians attending a service five years ago. Now thanks to the Dame and others brave enough to stand up to her, we know about her wrong doing in housing management in the Council.
DeleteThe Duke and Duchess of Cambridge went to Grenfell yesterday. Eddie Nestor on the BBC today made the point that they managed to "connect" with the people there in a way that politicians do not So those who are born to rule appear to be better at "connecting" with ordinary people than those whom we elect to represent us.
DeletePoliticians on left, Dent Coad and Corbyn, arrogantly think they definitely "connect" with people because they practice the politics of the under dog and represent the under dog's interests. This begs the question, How could Grenfell survivors not connect with them? A patronising position for these lefties in the extreme.
But do Dent Coad and Corbyn "connect" with people any better than Tories like Theresa May and Boris Johnson who appear very awkward and uncomfortable when confronting an horrendous situation facing ordinary people. Dent Coad went to Grenfell with Corbyn just after the fire and bit her lip when Corbyn proclaimed that "Emma is your MP and she will speak out." No one got worked up about that in the way they do when royalty puts in an appearance. Dent Coad and Corbyn were shown on the television in the same way that the Cambridge's visit was also shown.
Emma Dent Coad is snobbish, superior, and patronising. Like Corbyn, and all middle class lefties, (and let's face it they are middle class if they are in politics rather than toiling away in the supermarket) know best what the ordinary person needs. How could middle class, Emma, and her left wing middle class mate, Jeremy, mentally identify with the the working classes. Her attempts at fellow feeling were as feeble and meaningless as Theresa May's fleeting visit to Grenfell after the fire. Perhaps, the ordinary person prefers royalty to politicians.
Whereas, Judith Blakeman was a breath of fresh air for Grenfell people. A thoroughly decent woman without pretentious affectations who knows how to relate to people. She should get a medal.
