Tuesday's Council Meeting and More...

The morons who keep voting Labour for their local council in the sh*thole that is Sandwell after 43 years of dismal failure deserve everything they get and Tuesday was an object lesson in how they get shafted by the comrades.

This blog has pointed out time and time again that on the night before a full council meeting the Labour "group" (currently still indulging in civil war) have a private meeting in the council chamber and determine what will happen at the public meeting. Thus the "real" meeting is an affront to the democratic process and a farce - just giving a few grandstanding windbags the chance to parade their allegedly left wing credentials.

Full council meetings should be the acme of local democracy in the failing Borough but there are always a number of absentees despite the high level of allowances the comrades trouser. But Tuesday was particularly interesting. We all wondered whether Marshall would show his face but he didn't. But his groupie, class comedian Bob Piper, wasn't there and neither was Cllr Ann Jaron. It turns out that such was their contempt for the Borough they decided not to bother with an actual Council meeting but to attend a Labour Party meeting instead ie to select Comrade Piper for yet another Corbyn-esque term of depressing underachievement.

The dates of the Council meetings are known months in advance and so it beggars belief that "The Party" should deliberately book an alternative meeting on the same night. But that's how little these jokers really think of you folk.... And they are claiming YOUR money as allowances.

I am informed that Eling puppets Cllrs Piper and Jaron were, in fact, at the Abbey Labour selection meeting. Obviously Herr Eling had to stay in his besieged bunker but Mrs Milkperson was there instead. The amazing thing is that the Marshall clan also turned up! Still after all Piper's paeans of praise for the Builder from Bearwood I suppose it was the least Marshall could do....

On the theme of "Tales of the Unexpected" who should appear at full Council but Cllr Frear after months in hiding! How very odd!

Needless to say Cllr Preet "Greedy" Gill was not there. Although she has no record of competence as a Sadwell Councillor she is continuing to rake in her allowances even though she has - unbelievably - been elected as the MP for Edgbaston. Smethwick St Paul's is truly blessed as she has failed to represent their interests for three meetings in a row - 17/10/17; 16/01/18 and 6th March, 2018. As she has not attended a meeting for over six months she should normally be kicked off the Council by law but she cleverly protected her own little gravy train by attending a meeting on 3rd January, 2018 of an obscure bullshit committee called the "Select Committee for Policy Review". As she hadn't attended a meeting since July, 2017 she had to turn up or be booted out and so she happily keeps your money flowing to her thanks to participating in a gruelling meeting lasting, er, 38 minutes. (For the record she failed to turn up for the meetings of this talkshop on 01/08/17; 12/09/17 and 20/02/18.) As above, you keep voting for these people to p*ss all over you so lap it up folks!

And there must be an election coming as sundry Wednesbury/Friar Park Councillors were suddenly in evidence supporting a demo outside of the lovely people from "The People of Wednesbury Say NO to Network Rail." (Check out their Facebook page in that name.) These folk were protesting about the plan to build a concrete sleeper factory at Bescot rail sidings and have done a fantastic job so far including getting a massive petition together against the plan. Normally, of course, the despotic comrades don't brook any insolence from anyone and, leaving aside some of the dubious deals they have tried to force through, they usually spout a lot of claptrap about "jobs" to get their pet projects duly approved. But here - and with an election coming up - some have seen the strength of local opinion and sided (at least for now) with the people. Under-fire and under-investigation Cabinet member Simon "The Sandwell Slasher" Hackett was assiduously stewarding the demo and looking after the aggrieved locals. Too little too late to save him, I fear, but a very rare and welcome sight all the same. Here is with fellow Cabinet member David "Menage a Deux" Hosell:

Incidentally, a few folk at the demo mentioned - not in a good way - the incessant traffic at the Lidl Distribution Centre - and we all know who was the main backer of that one at SMBC don't we?

Sandwell Tories

The late Smethwick Scumbag in his crazed ramblings used to accuse me of being involved with every grouping from "The Kippers" to Noel's House Party. Most readers know my political bent and that I am not a Tory but the local Conservatives do write a splendid blog. I am grateful for their support today noting the joint effort by those two local wells of corruption Sandwell Council and West Midlands Police to close me down. Here is the post (which contains a minor error which I will deal with below):

Police Latest

In my blog on Monday I pointed out that WMP tried to stitch me up by claiming - even though I had a solicitor present - that five councillors had made complaints against me. Cllrs A to E lets call them. The Sandwell Tories blog gets the letters slightly mixed but it transpired that Cllrs C and D had most definitely not complained about me but specifically about Cllrs A and B! That left only three complainants (if you can call two of them that.)

Cllr C came to me on Tuesday night and said categorically that he had made complaint against Cllrs A and B. I am not 100% certain but Cllr D's complaint is certainly against Cllr B and possibly Cllr A as well.

Also on Tuesday I had a discussion about something else with Cllr X who then also informed me that he too had made a formal complaint to WMP concerning Cllrs A and B. As it is I am not sure if he is going to be much help for other reasons and so we will ignore him for now.

And since the police interrogation two further persons have contacted me. They have both, this week, given police statements against Cllrs A and B. Let's call them persons F and G.

Leaving aside for the time being the better "quality" of the evidence from C, D, F and G, on purely numerical terms therefore (and ignoring Cllr X) it is 4 v 3 in favour of The Skidder and against Cllrs A and B. WMP have no option now but to treat them in exactly the same way as they have treated me. That's only fair isn't it readers?

As people are trying to criminalise me they must remember that the criminal burden of proof is "beyond reasonable doubt" and that the very fact of the four statements telling the truth here automatically constitutes "reasonable doubt".

(I do hope a certain relatively new employee didn't advise Cllr A to launch criminal allegations. Cllr A can be a very vindictive man "lol"!)

Hot Rumour

Sadders has been awash with rumour today that a Labour Councillor has been suspended by the Labour Party but there is still no official confirmation from the Party or his allies of this. Info gratefully received particularly as, if true, it will be very helpful in respect of the police witch-hunt against me!
