SARAH GENTRY? WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON...THE RESIDENTS OR A SWISS PROPERTY DEVELOPER

Bimbo Hart

AVON HOUSE, ALLEN ST

Every so often a planning officer's life becomes so entwined with a dodgy project the old Dame has to say "cool the ardour..."

Yes, Mrs Gentry...this is directed at you and your eagerness to help the mysterious Swiss property developer Harry 'Bimbo' Hart.

The developer is a fund owned by multi-millionaire Swiss-based Brit Harry "Bimbo" Hart.  Bimbo's sinister dad was a Maggie Thatcher 'Mr Fixit'. 

'Boy' Bimbo grew up on Chadacre Estate in Suffolk where his father famously battled the local council during the construction of a gold pyramid tomb https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1262285/Richard-Kay-31-March-2010.html

Now Bimbo is trying to convince us that we need a new care home managed by his ultra-luxury KYN operation. 

At the last committee meeting he persuaded fellow private equity fund multi-millionaire Robert Darwent's wife Julia to tell her sob story about not finding suitable accommodation for her mother. 

Life is tough even for those worth over a hundred million....

The Dame has dealt extensively with Bimbo MYSTERIOUS BIMBO and his very odd father. It's worth reading.

On Tuesday Bimbo and his team are back again. As usual, RBKC planning officer Sarah Gentry is again all too eager to lend her shoulder to Bimbo's wheel.

A double basement was approved for a 2016 proposal for a neurological care centre. This is still apparantly to be approved for a care home housing dementia patients in a deep and dark basement with no neurological care centre in sight. 

Why does Planning Officer Sarah Gentry keep quiet about the expert report commissioned by civically minded residents? 

Their damming report radically contradicts the noise, light and environmental assessments in every aspect. 

Outlandishly, Gentry makes the outrageously untrue claim this ultra-luxury care home would support the Council's housing plans and address the shortage of beds in the borough! Obviously, Bimbo's PR team fed Gentry that little gem....

It seems that is sad multi-millionaires also suffer from the housing shortage.

And on top of all this we are led to believe that housing dementia patients in the basement is acceptable because there is a little light well for natural light...  yes, in the basement... 

Sarah also finds that the multitude of RBKC policies in this conservation area should be ignored for an extra 5 rooms. Those extra basement rooms are critical for the profitability of the site we are told. 

The proposal has had more than double the number of objections than support and the supposed 'supporters' all look artificially 'harvested' by Team Bimbo.

If planning officers are going to take what corporate planning applicants tell them as bible without considering recognised experts' opinions why we need planning officers in the first place? 

Is it incompetence or something worse?  We do not know. 

We wish local residents, the adjacent Kensington United Reform Church, ESSA, the Kensington Society and all those opposing the best of luck.

CLLR JEDUT TELLS COMMON PEOPLE TO 'GET YER BIKE' AND STOP WHINGING

A few months back Eva Jedut threatened the Dame with the full might of English justice. 

She swore she would sue the poor old Dame for millions. But, like most political promises the Dame heard no more after telling the silly woman to take a hike...

all mouth: no trousers Jedut

Typical Jedut....all mouth and no trousers. You can read her crass and badly written letter HERE

Anyway, now Jedut has told the peasants to stop moaning about buses being cut and that they "should get on their bikes".

MAN THE PUMPING STATIONS THIS TIME, THAMES WATER!

Thames Water..... this Tuesday storms are forecast over London. Are you ready this time?

On July 12th last year thousands of residents were flooded with sewage just because Thames Water had left the pumps unmanned so floodwater was unable to be pumped away.

Let us hope the hopelessly badly managed Thames Water has learned the lesson and will have engineers on standby at all pumping stations.

CLLR CAMPBELL WANTS YOU TO 'CELEBRATE' WINDRUSH DAY WITH HER....PASS THE SICK BAG!

These sad and transparent attempts to appear 'relevant' are so embarrassing. 

The £1 million a year PR team is so short of anything to do it comes up with crass ideas like this. 

It patronises both black and white residents: it is hideously embarrassing. Black people see straight through this gimmick.

THE DESELECTION OF 'THE SELECT'

 

Cllr Julie

Dear Dame, 

This year's intake of RBKC  councillors has to be the weakest on record. 

Most are unknown, some are parachuted in from elsewhere and have next to no local connections, and most of the good hard-working  councillors have either retired or been deselected.  

Both the Conservative and Labour Parties have completely lost the plot, deselecting some truly great councillors.  

Labour deselected Ian Henderson, Nadia Nail and Pat Healy and caused Monica Press and Robert Atkinson to resign before they were forced out. 

Not sure if you also know that disgracefully, the Conservatives also deselected Julie Mills. 

Cllr Mills was, in the most recent times, one of the best councillors this borough has ever seen. Dedicated, hard-working and critical but always fair. 

She has been respected on all sides for years, except by the RBKC Leadership and the KCFC Party bigwigs who pushed her out.  

Cllr Mills was most recently known for being the lone Conservative voice who rightly questioned the Council's expenditure decisions over Grenfell and lacklustre supposed "Grenfell Recovery" which is now being exposed at the Inquiry.  She was removed from Committee soon after that. Julie Mills was also a  Conservative councillor who was against  RBKC's abolition of the Grenfell Recovery Scrutiny Committee and who abstained during the vote. 

The very few councillors remaining who show some degree of conscience, are more popular with the voters than their leaders and who bring insightful debate and independent thinking to the table, had perhaps better watch their backs. It looks like Elizabeth Campbell and Emma Dent Coad want their party councillors to be robots who agree with every single thing they say and do and will never ever pose any sort of challenge to them....that is why Victoria Borwick was never selected.

Such narcissism can only result in our Council being more detached from its public than it is already.  It is small wonder election turnouts are so low and poorer scrutiny levels abysmal.

It would appear that Cllrs Campbell and Dent Coad have far more in common than either would like to admit.

Yours sincerely,

An insider.

EMMA DENT COAD AND GRENFELL RELATED COMMITTEES

 

Emma Dent Coad is quoted in the Guardian...

“The week after Grenfell, the previous MP gave an interview to the Evening Standard saying that I was also responsible for the fire because I’d sat on all these committees. 

And that was a lie."

So, what was the lie? Over to you, readers

BORIS AND A LITTLE BIT OF FO NEPOTISM

The Dame has a deadbeat nephew, Ludo. 

She often rings powerful friends begging them to 'find a place' for this disgrace to her illustrious family. 

For the privileged, like the Dame, using influence is one of life's little perks.

When Carrie Symonds was Boris's 'bit on the side' he tried to fix her up with a job in the Foreign Office. So what? 

In Turkey where the Johnson family originated from nepotism is the norm so why not here in his adopted homeland?
