Rajbir Singh - Puppet on a String? (+ Zorro and More!)

Rajbir Singh is the new "Leader" of bent Labour Sandwell Council. Many of you will be asking, "who the f*ck is he?" 

Rajbir is a young man who has only been on the bent Labour Council for three years (elected in Bristnall in May, 2018) yet he was catupulted into the Cabinet in July last year. He seemingly benefitted from distancing himself from the rag tag rebel army of Elingites who have caused so much trouble and disruption to Sandwell in the last few years - led by the likes of Carmichael, Moore, Costigan, Hackett and the ludicrous Peter "Zorro" Hughes (of whom more below). Otherwise his meteoritic rise has been inexplicable.

The Skidder understands that Rajbir defeated the mouthy Rebel Queen, Kerrie Carmichael, by 31 votes to 26. Incidentally, there was said to be trouble in the "socialist paradise" of sh*thole Sandwell as the appalling Spellar backed Carmichael and forced his rimmer-in-chief Gurinder Josan (now on Labour's NEC) to follow suit - which went down very badly with many in the local Sikh community!

Of course, the whole plan had gone wrong for Labour as the intention was that Liam Preece would be the new Leader - apparently sanctioned by Keir "Sir Woodenarse" Starmer himself - but the voters of Charlemont & Grove Vale sensibly gave him the bum's rush. This blog disclosed some considerable time ago that Labour were planning to supervise Preece - an ineffectual Councillor for 9 years - via "mentors". Now they intend to do the same with an even more inexperienced "leader" - their new puppet on a string! 

See my recent post about how unelected outsiders from the Labour Party will run the benighted Borough:

http://thesandwellskidder.blogspot.com/2021/05/unelected-labour-commissars-to-run.html

I don't know about you dear readers, but I always hope - often forlornly - that a political leader will be both charismatic and competent. Rajbir is a young man and may yet make his mark but in the last three years of me doorstepping Council meetings he has been an anonymous figure. Once, when I fired a question at him on the disastrous running of the Council, he looked genuinely shocked and muttered that it would be "inappropriate" for him to comment. Far from looking poised he appeared pompous and unapprocachable.

Let's face it, vast numbers of the Sandwell Labour Group are dimwitted morons and so the talent pool in which to fish for a "leader" is very shallow indeed. 

Mr Singh used to own a food business, Ample Foods Limited, with another person. There are, at last, a few Labour Councillors with a little business experience in the benighted Borough but it is not clear how this sits with the shrill anti-business rhetoric of Sandwell Labour over many years. And, curiously, Rajbir transferred the business to his wife on 5th April, 2019 (I have written to him and he has declined the opporunity to tell Skidder readers why he did this). Perhaps he thought the hatred of business and business-people by most of the comrades would reflect badly on him? Perhaps he thought being a vendor of booze and fags in an area with appalling public health after 47 years of Labour would in someway be inappropriate lol - and he is now the Chair of the Sandwell Health and Wellbeing Board! Perhaps even the name of the Company, "Ample Foods" was an embarrassment when Sandwell Labour boast of kids lying starving in the streets after nearly half a century of their incompetence? Who knows - his lips are sealed ...

Happily his wife, who now runs the booze and fags empire, seemingly has no such scruples since Harnoor Bhullar is now a new Labour Councillor for Old Warley! As ever with sick Sandwell, keep it in the family!

(I have had cause to write to Mr Singh on another matter of which more anon).


Zorro Grovels Again!

In a recent Skidder straw poll Cllr Peter "Zorro" Hughes aka "Alberich" (Wednesbury North) was named as one of the top five vilest Councillors in bent Sandwell Labour and readers of this blog will be unsurprised at that. Incredibly, the morons of Wednesbury North re-elected this ball of poison to the corrupt Council.

Zorro has been a leading rebel since the downfall of his beloved Milkman and has taken every opportunity to undermine the leadership. But it seems his alleged "comrades" are tiring of his antics and he has been forced to apologise for his behaviour at the recent Sandwell Labour AGM.

Despite stiff competition in bent Sandwell, there is no greater nor more pathetic groveller than Hughes. But, not for the first time, he threw his toys out of the pram when the rebels were soundly defeated and their gobby Rebel Queen, Carmichael, trampled underfoot (clearly the shock was too much for her since she failed to attend the full Council meeting this week along with a number of other notable absentees). This time he was called to account by the Labour Whips and this greaser's written apology is toe-curling even by his standards. 

Here are some of the highlights thanks to official Labour sources:

"In the heat of the AGM, I expressed frustration in a manner which I now realise is regrettable. Over the last few days, I have taken some time to reflect on things."

With outstanding hypocrisy, one of the biggest in-fighters and trouble-makers of recent times went on:

"The Group needs to see an end to the in-fighting and bickering which has stymied progress and damaged the Party's reputation."

"Contrary to the previous remark [his outburst at the AGM] I intend to work with the new Leader and Executive ..."

He then BEGGED for a job in the new regime despite the damage he and his cronies have done:

"I am looking forward to an urgent conversation with Rajbir regarding the role I can play in transforming Sandwell Labour, for the benefit of the Council and the communities we serve, whilst working alongside our fellow colleagues." [Pass the sick bag, Alice!]

Whatever Rajbir may or may not be I suspect he is not stupid and will find that his diary is so "full" he cannot find time to accommodate this buffoon. Two words will suffice Rajbir - one beiginning with "f" ...

What have you done Wednesbury North? You KNOW what this twonk is like! At least we can hope that he will be marginalised again and that, apart from his inevitable grandstanding and "Vagina Monologues" at meetings, he has been well and truly put back in his box!

No Apology From Hackett!

I took the opportunity on Tuesday to ask Simon "The Sandwell Slasher" Hackett if he would apologise to the people of Sandwell for his pathetic behaviour and the vast sums of money he has cost local folk.

My questions:

"So when are you going to confess to your sins Councillor Hackett - the big problems with the cover-up of everything and the legal case against you. How much is that costing the people of Sandwell? Don't you think you ought to apologise to people for the amount ... you've caused the public to spend?

Answer:

None.

What an absolute disgrace!

Technical Blog - Restricted View - Sandwell Council Chamber

Once again the bent paid service at corrupt Labour Sandwell Council are trying to take down this blog and to destroy me financially. Included in the latest attempt is the absurd allegation by Chief Executive David Stevens that by "hanging over" the public gallery at the few meetings I actually attend, I am - and I sh*t ye not - "unlawfully harassing" grown adults ie. councillors (!) and staff (!?!?) 

The fact is, of course, that the view from the gallery is p*sspoor and one cannot properly see who is sitting below. The importance of this was amply shown in July, 2018 at Liam Preece's infamous Audit Committee meeting (when the official recording was turned off for the Lion Farm item). It was only by "hanging over" the balcony and looking underneath that I was able to report the highly unusual - and unexplained - brooding presence of (then) head of the bent paid service, the now-disgraced Jan Britton, at that particular sh*tshow! 

Last week I recorded two short videos supporting the point I am making. There is one small caveat in that the layout of the Chamber has been altered due to the Covid pandemic (and, of course, there have been no live Council meetings for over a year). The seats of the Councillors themselves have been pushed further back from pre-Covid times. This now makes it even more difficult to see Councillors. On the other hand, staff usually sat behind the Councillors in the Chamber proper and so it was necessary to lean over to see who was present - see above again in respect of Britton.

Incidentally, until Britton was kicked out, I don't recall ever seeing Stevens at any of the long-ago meetings where I am supposed to have "unlawfully harassed" people. I don't believe he was even there - though perhaps he was hiding out of sight under the balcony!!!!

Here are two short videos now publicly available on YouTube:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88VgbVrvoME

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lh5TmesZ_k

Of course, and as ever, the maliciousness of this allegation is amply shown by the fact that no complaint has been raised about this during YEARS of the same, there has never been a request for me to stop doing this from the Chair nor from the ever-present security staff and no complaint has ever been made about other people doing exactly the same thing. Indeed here is wannabe Labour Councillor, the Friar Park Failure, John "The Godfather" Giles "unlawfully harassing" Councillors lol:

Unelected Labour Commissars to run Sh*thole Sandwell

In a top secret email unelected apparatchik, Richard Oliver (see below), the Acting Regional Director of West Midlands Labour, has ordered elected Councillors at bent Labour Sandwell to submit to unelected Commissars or lose their posts and the money that goes with them!

The Story So Far ...

After 47 years of failure and revelation upon revelation of corruption, cronyism and incompetence thick ***ts in bent Sandwell keep voting for Labour candidates (although in a shock turnaround at the last election, a nine-strong Tory opposition will now start the long process of bringing the Dictatorship to heel).

This blog asked local Labour-voting morons which Labour Party they were actually voting for on 6th May since the local Party is split down the middle? The evil Steve "Squealing" Eling (aka "The Milkman") split the local Party in two and the warring camps have been scrapping ever since. This will continue after Wednesday night when a new Leader [sic] will be elected in a highly secret "anonymous" "virtual" vote since there are some really vile people - particulalry amongst the "rebels".

The GMB Union is now gaining immense power in Sandwell (and you will see in a recent blog how a joke figure like Ian Cooper thought he could boss around then leader, "Red" Yvonne Davies). There is concern that a GMB official is running the secret online ballot (and one carrying plenty of baggage of his own to boot). Expect dirty tricks as with the "election" of Eling, with some Councillors being mysteriously found to be ineligible to vote at the last minute. It is even said there are moves to lift the suspension of Tipton scumbag Cllr M Y Hussain - "Billa" (blogs passim ad nauseum and see legal notice below) - so that Spellar and Keir "Sir Woodenarse" Starmer can get the coarse Eling Rimmer, Kerrie Carmichael, the top job.

The entire Muslim community of Tipton (if not, Sandwell) know what has been going on with Billa over the last few months even if Starmer and Spellar don't! As we have seen in recent posts, Oliver has covered himself in ordure recently. and so one imagines he will learn the lessons of recent disasters - Tipper, John Giles, Preece etc.

(As an aside, the internet is also awash with very lurid allegations about another Labour Councillor which senior figures in the Party - from Oliver right up to Labour's National Executive Committee - know about. Let's hope for their sake the story is unfounded!)

It would certainly be novel for Labour to select the previously inconspicuous Carmichael as leader given her behaviour at the Count the other day. Unlike at the Count, Carmichael was able to keep her gob well and truly shut as she willingly propped up the crazed Eling regime. It has also been surprising to many Sandwell watchers over the last few weeks that p*sshead former journalist, Adam Smith, has become a spokesperson for her and privy to her correspondence! Since Smith was also the voice of Cllr Mick Davies, the infamous masturbator John Tipper and even, to an extent, The Milkman himself, Carmichael may want to consider using a more reliable spokesperson going forward lol!

The Labour Group were shocked by the election result and have suddenly started, after 47 years, to promise "change". The fact is that this is what we call in the trade, "b*llocks", as shown by the fact that not one Labour figure has said the word "sorry" for what has gone in recent years (some of them when Carmichael was in a position of responsibility but took none) - as exposed, often exclusively, in this blog.

One of the worst Labour Sandwell Councillors of the lot is said to be "a friend of the Carmichael family" and will presumably get a Cabinet position if the Group lose its senses and annoints her on Wednesday.

Does Sandwell also need another white winner in a Council now reflecting the great diversity of the sh*thole Borough? The white overlords of recent years have hardly graced the post:

  1. Bill Thomas - white - mysteriously known as "Bangkok Bill". Pleaded guilty to a theft charge;
  2. Darren "Cooper - white - wifebeater, thug and troll who died in a booze and drug-fuelled binge;
  3. Steve "Squealing" Eling - white - evil tyrant who presided over numerous scandals eg. the suspended secretaries saga. Forced Melanie Dudley out to protect Hackett at huge public expense. With Cllr Marshall envisioned a Cllr "sp*nking" over Cllr Crompton "in her bikini" as this would be preferable to "doing" his wife. Suspended by the Labour Party;
  4. Steve Trow - white - as weak as piss and a coward to boot as the saga of the £300k legal fund to close this blog shows;
  5. "Red" Yvonne Davies - white - a woman with many admiarable qualities but too opionated and stubborn for her own good. Completely out-manoevered by the bent paid service. Suspended by the Labour Party for alleged anti-Semitism (now sitting as an Independent);
  6. Maria Crompton - white - anonymous. Previously a generous supporter of this blog's "good work", as she and partner Cllr Pete Allen called it, in exposing corruption within the Council and Labour Party but now trying to close down this blog and destroy me personally through malice or stupidity. Too weak to stand up to the bent paid service. Seemingly duplicitouus eg, towards me and in respect of the destruction of Lion Farm Fields.
Crompton is said to be standing for Leader and Deputy - a typically fence-sitting position for her - but has had her day in the sun. Having declared war on me and this blog I can assure you that she will be forced to take responsibility for her conduct in early course (as will all other Labour Councillors who are involved). She is even refusing to acknowledge receipt of an important letter which I hand-delivered to her house!!!!

That leaves the up and coming Rajbir Singh - forming a power base with "the family and friends of Rajbir" (post passim). Only elected in 2018 and with less than a year in the Cabinet Rajbir has, so far, been an uncharismatic and anonymous individual who has concealed any talent he may have with great aplomb! It says a lot about the - mostly - scummy Labour thickoes that this nonentity is even in the race. It requires a microscope to detect any talent in the warring Group.

It may be a joke, but someone has told be that Laura "Sicknote" Rollins is standing for Deputy Leader - the foul-mouthed "former Jewess"  and hater of the humble lamprey fish, whose use of Jewish tropes when using Twitter to literally beg for a "date" managed to be both disturbing and hilarious! Surely this is a wind-up?

However ...

Whichever side wins on Wednesday will be subjected to forced "mentoring" by unelected individuals BY ORDER OF THE LABOUR PARTY! Can you imagine what will happen if Crompton wins? She has been an employee of the Labour Party, a Councillor for 18 years and interim Leader but Starmer, Spellar and the seemingly hapless Oliver think she is so f*cking useless, an unelected apparatchik will come in to tell her what she can and can't do! 

Dickie or Dickhead - whichever it is - Oliver's sinister email tells all the pathetic Labour Councillors who gain posts (and, therefore, more of our money) they are to be enslaved and indentured to "mentors". They must engage with these outside appointees and anyone who does not do so will be removed from their post by the Party. Is this even legal? I think a person like Crompton who refuses this nonsense would have an extremely strong legal claim against this undemocratic bullying. Oliver says that a special AGM will be called to dismiss non-participants, so he obviously thinks it is!

You prats who voted for these dimwits have no say in the matter. Oliver and the Party will decide who rules the roost in Sandwell and you can go and f*ck yourselves!

Oliver's threatening missive warned anyone leaking his email that it would be a disciplinary matter. What an absolute xxxt. So much for Starmer's nice inclusive Labour Party - this is like Stalin's Russia!

Although the aggressive Oliver (himself too cowardly to respond when asked why he had personally said he approved the disastrous candidacy of the masturbator John Tipper) threatens individual Councillors, Labour itself managed to leak the story via another favourite mouthpiece, Peter Madeley of the Wolvo C*suckers (aka The Express and Star). But Madeley made a fundamental error in his report  (deliberately or otherwise) where he said of Starmer and Spellar's mad scheme:

"It will see mentors from the Local Government Association (LGA) offer guidance to Labour councillors".

This is grossly misleading from an experienced journalist since the LGA is a national association purporting to be apolitical. In fact, Oliver's nasty email states in writing that the outsiders will come from a sub-group "LGA Labour" so that it will actually be Party supporters who will control the whole process. In no way is it "independent".

Indeed the initial presentation to the elected thickoes will be from one Pete Robbins, whose LinkedIn profile says he is based in, er, London. (West Brom saw off that infamous Labour infiltrator - Ibrahim "Bogus" Dogus - and may have to wo/man the barricades again!)

People of all parties and none have to engage with their elected officials and expect to do so confidentially. It is obviously vitally important that people's private data is not passed to Labour outsiders and given that Starmer/Spellar/Oliver expect ALL post-holders to be mentored by their Commissars, there has to be a very real risk of this. The new Conservative Councillors need to keep their eye on this (and much else with bent Labour) and let people know directly if their data protection rights are being abused by bent Labour in this process.

If you think you may have had your data misused after this Wednesday let me know and I can put you in touch with no win, no fee solicitors to make claims against the Labour Party and/or the Council itself.

Far from getting better, Labour just get worse and worse!

(I am working away part of the coming week. Please contact via email or text unless you have major breaking news! Please also consider joining the Facebook Group - "The Sandwell Skidder - Speaking Truth to Power".)

And finally,

Now that he is out of the Labour Party and off the Council, the ghastly greaser John "Jedward" Edwards has used the current emergency in the Middle East to relentlessly attack the State of Israel. He has been accused of anti-Semitism in the past and has tried to conceal his burning hatred under the guise of anti-Zionism. It looks like the shackles are off now. In one recent Tweet he very deliberately and knowingly likened Israel to a "fascist" state which is an allegation which most Jewish folk will find extremely offensive. 

It is an emotive subject with strong views on both sides but I hope the bent Blues (aka West Midlands Police) will be carefully monitoring possible hate speech in Sandwell and taking appropriate action!

Technical Blog - Counter Fraud Report - Remembrance Road

See blogs passim and legal notice below concerning the alleged involvement of our old "friend" Cllr Simon Hackett in a council house allocation on Friar Park. (Hackett denies any involvement.)

A whistleblower claimed that Hackett was involved and the complaint was sent to Surjit Tour at SMBC. A "Counter Fraud Report" was prepared which the bent Labour Council flatly refused to disclose. Following a Freedom of Information request SMBC told the Information Commissioner that, even though the whistleblower's complaint was about Hackett, he was "hardly mentioned" in the Report which dealt mostly into an investigation of the tenant and the whistleblower!!!!

Yesterday SMBC disclosed the heavily redacted report which even they admit renders it "meaningless". This is as far as I can go via the FOI procedure but you can see with your own eyes what a complete p*ss-take this procedure is.

I have submitted a Standards Complaint against Hackett to attempt to ensure a full investigation into this sordid affair.

(I am afraid I have had to make small redactions myself to page 1 and paragraph 1.1 to remove the actual address and the name of the tenant. All other redactions have been made by SMBC.)

SMBC Employees "Lied to Courts" Allegation!



Well, well, well ... An email has just come into my possession from bent Labour Sandwell Council itself - i.e. it is 100% genuine - from former Labour Leader "Red" Yvonne Davies to her Cabinet members dated 23rd August, 2019. She states unequivocally that the bent paid service have been telling porkies to courts:


Key words: 

"Our assurances given to various courts of a robust process being followed, is often untrue!"

I tried to get the Information Commissioner to prosecute two senior employees (one a solicitor) without success. Of course, West Midlands Police are well aware of the corruption but have decided to "shield" corrupt individuals from investigation, let alone prosecution.

The Labour Cabinet members who were sent this email and who are still on the Council (but kept their mouths shut and are now trying to shaft me again) are:

Maria Crompton

Wasim Ali

Danny Millard

Jackie Taylor

Farut Shaeen.

Cllr Jo Hadley is still a Councillor but sits as an Independent having left Labour accusing it and the Council of widespread corruption.

Of course, most of the cases arose during the currency of the Squealing Eling Cabinet. Most of the actual wrongdoing was done when the likes of Cllrs Costigan, Moore, Shackleton, Hackett and Carmichael were in the Cabinet and seem to be claiming they didn't know about any of it because they didn't know what the f*ck was going on! 

Since the defenestration of "Red" Yvonne, normal service has been resumed. The paid service is utterly corrupted - including individuals within the top tiers - and are running rings round stop-gap Labour leader, Crompton, as they did with Cllr Davies. 

There simply has to be a proper, independent, investigation into SMBC and WMP and SOON!!!

Sandwell Covid B*lls, Comrade Cooper & More ...

 PPE 

Remember the early days of the pandemic when Sandwell Labour Councillors whipped themselves into a state of hysteria over PPE (personal protective equipment) and used all available means to attack the Government? As ever in bent Labour Sandwell, wherever Labour "politicians" lead, the deeply corrupted paid service is sure to follow ...

In May, 2020 a spokesperson for Chief Executive David Stevens and the Council decided to attack the national Government and told the Local Government Association (LGA):

"PPE, unsurprisingly, has taken up a lot of our time. We have been liasing with care homes [plural] about PPE. The stocks available have simply not been good enough. We should have done better. If local government had been involved from the start we could have got more PPE distributed more effectively to care homes."

[This was said in May 2020 when the crisis only began - outside China - in mid-January starting a race by countries world-wide to secure the limited supply of PPE available at that time].

This caught my attention since 84% of UK care homes are owned by private owners. There was a crisis with these businesses competing in the world-wide scramble for scarce resources but supply was soon organised through the Department of Health & Social Care, the NHS and, where possible, UK manufacturers (a PPE Portal was set-up to streamline FREE supply of PPE to care homes -and many others - which has been extended to mid-2022). Why, I wondered, with a pandemic raging was Stevens concentrating resources on private care homes when there was surely quite enough for bent Sandwell to be getting on within its own remit in the crisis situation? Was this to appease his Labour masters?

A response to a Freedom of Information request now shows a completely different picture:

"The Council has one [my emphasis] care home, Fountain Court."

"There was no difficulty in supplying PPE to Fountain Court. PPE was supplied from the Council's Central Stores and via Central Government Local Resilience Forum".

So there you have it folks, contrary to the propaganda, the truth was that there was no problem with PPE at the one Council care home in Sadders and it was being adequately supplied by a joint operation via local and central government! 

It gets odder still! It seems that it was the bent paid service itself that was in meltdown since Stevens and the Council stated via their spokesperson:

"At one point in March ... [SMBC staff] were scouring the internet and looking to pay for PPE with credit cards. At one point someone was ready to spend £5,000 on PPE. When you do that, you know something has gone wrong".

Indeed one does! There are specific procurement procedures in the Council both for transparency and to counter fraud. What credit cards did Stevens mean (surely not staff using their own cards) and why were the correct procedures not being followed? Why had something in the Labour Council "gone wrong" so badly?

Once again, however, a FOI response paints a different picture to the "news" item, which begs the question why David Stevens caused and/or permitted these allegations to be made and published nationally by the LGA? The truth is this:

"Credit cards were not used to purchase PPE for Fountain Court".

Also, in March, 2020 SMBC spent a relatively trivial £3,636 on PPE for general Council use using SMBC's own procurement cards. (The FOI is silent whether the goods were ever actually delivered and whether they were fit for purpose. There is no price comparison showing whether Labour were ripped off or not. Mr Stevens has not supplied details of who these suppliers actually were - not Labour cronies one hopes!) But at least the employee who was going to splash £5k of our dosh was stopped in time!

Further PPE suppliers were added to the Council list of suppliers using - it is said - proper procedures.

The truth is that, like the rest of the Country, Stevens's Council did not hold stocks of PPE for general staff use. Somehow Labour had not seen the pandemic coming lol, whereas they say the Tories should have!

The Council spokesperson also stated, "we always knew enormous stocks would be needed." What a shame bent Labour didn't get on to it then before Sandwell had the staff looking at ebay and whipping out the credit cards!

Clearly there was panic within the bent paid service, as now admitted above, but why did Stevens and the Press Office seemingly decide to, at BEST, grossly exaggerate the situation via national media? They caused the position to be described as a "scandal of epic proportions" to the media so as to bash the Government. Why, when this was NOT the situation in Sandwell? I think we can probably guess can't we readers?

At least now there is an official opposition to bent Labour this sort of sh*te can be questioned contemporaneously and duly exposed for what it is.

Incidentally, I have now written TWICE to the LGA asking them either to remove or correct the original article but, so far, I have not even had the courtesy of a response. No doubt Mr Stevens will himself write to them to correct the record!

More Sandwell Labour bullsh*t before Sandwell recorded the worst Covid rates in England!

I'm in trouble lol!

My friend Satinder Dunn has upbraided me for not mentioning her in my reflections on last week's election results. My piece was not intended to be a ward by ward analysis but I am very happy to say that although Satinder lost, she raised the Tory vote spectacularly in Cradley Heath & Old Hill from 349 last time to a stonking 1,187 votes. Local morons decided they preferred Labour's Vicki Darby-Smith despite her involvement in bent Labour Sandwell's "crony contract" to run the Xmas Lights events at Blackheath and CH (a total shambles at Blackheath in 2019 which was slammed by locals as being extremely dangerous!) Even with the evidence available to them these xxxxs voted for Labour cronyism and failure! Weird!

Incidentally, the Tories appeared not to have committed significant resources to CH & OH last week but that will no doubt change next year, as Satinder only lost by 63 votes. In fact, she still polled more than Labour's ghastly Eling-rimmer, Ann Shackleton, did when winning the seat in 2019! 

There probably won't be any posts next week (as I am working away) and so don't forget to read the Election Result Special:

The Bent Blues and "Partners"

Just in today - another example of the corrupt relationship between West Midlands Police (WMP) and the bent Labour Council.

The Times newspaper wrote to WMP raising certain issues concerning me and the Council. This was a press request from a national paper to the Bent Blues so what did they do? They immediately sent the request and their reply straight to their corrupt pals! 


Quite how this sort of thing fits in with Data Protection issues is a question in itself, but when there are people at the top of WMP preventing investigations into SMBC criminality I suppose that is the least of our worries.

The GMB's Fraternal Fatso (yes, I know - pot and kettle!)

Chief Executive David Stevens appears to be dancing to the tune of Sandwell's Unions in general and the GMB in particular. But not so long ago the GMB were most upset that their malign influence was waning in the sh*thole Borough.

This caused the wobbling Ian Cooper, Il Presidente of the GMB's notorious s85 branch and Chair of Halesowen and Rowley Regis Labour Party to fire off an intemperate email on 1st January 2020 to (then) Labour Leader, "Red" Yvonne Davies. Besides being grossly defamatory, Cooper whined that the unions needed more influence. As if we didn't know, the Leader was expected to kowtow to "the Party".

Here is the derogatory and defamatory email and I must stress that it was absolutely NOT leaked to me by Yvonne Davies herself. Further, Darryl Magher has never been a member or supporter of Britain First!

What a disgrace when the unelected union and Party try to run the Borough and to tell an intelligent - if sometimes misguided - woman who she can and cannot talk to and how to do her job!

This is why folks, it's time to change!

Small Earthquake in Bent Sandwell - Election Result Special

The one you have all been waiting for! A long read but you can dip in and out as there will probably only be one more post before I take next week off (work rather than holiday, alas).

"Rejoice at the news" was once said by a serial winner of elections. I never thought I would see the day when I, as a non-Tory, would take such delight in the election of nine Conservatives to bent Labour Sandwell Council. Not only has this removed some of the dross, but the Tories secured sufficient seats to form an "official opposition". This is important because it will give them notice of official documents which the corrupt paid service and bent Labour have, hitherto, kept secret. Now questions can be asked at an early stage and not years after the event. 

Unfortunately, no Tory women were elected but some came close and I am sure the likes of Emma Henlan and Sarah Johnson will live to fight another day.

Now there can be proper scrutiny of policy if the new members can step up to the plate. This is no easy task. Unlike many of the scroungers and unemployed on the Labour benches, most of the new Tories are young(ish) working people with families. They will have to juggle their lives with a huge workload. They will face the sort of vicious bullying from the comrades I have endured for several years. The paid service is utterly corrupted and they will face the same obstruction and obfuscation I do. Nine of them will have to carry the fight forward against the whole corrupt Council whilst also looking after folk in their wards. I shall help them as much as possible and I also urge all other decent people in Sandwell to assist them too.

These folk can do the heavy lifting at local level but have the advantage that three of the four Sandwell MP's are now Conservatives AND Andy Street is still the West Midlands Tory Mayor. The odious Labour Cllr Bob "Seig Heil" Piper once made a derogatory joke that folk in Sandwell are never more than 10 feet away from a Tory. Not for the first time the joke is actually on him, as in most parts of Sandwell this is now factually true!

Fingers crossed - this is the beginning of the end of the perversion of Labour that exists in Sandwell and the curtain is falling on 47 years of corruption, cronyism and incompetence.


John "Jedward" Edwards

At long last this piece of excrement has been scraped from Sandwell's shoe. A man consumed with hatred (allegedly because he lost the parliamentary nomination for WBE to Tom Watson) he did everything possible to hang on to his job as head of the Fire Authority and the money that went with it. Thus this so-called "firebrand" ended up a grovelling rimmer of the first degree to Labour Leaders [sic] Cooper and Eling. Recently deselected by his Party he flounced off and stood as an independent but crashed and burned last week.

I bumped into him almost immediately at the Count on Friday and the following exchange occurred:

Me: (Cheerily) "Morning Jedders"

Jedward: "F*ck off you f*cking louse."

I hadn't realised we were still so close lol!

A well-known local figure told me his election leaflet resembled an Order of Service at a funeral and a reader was kind enough to supply a copy lol:


"RIP" Scumbag!

Trailer Park Trash

Regular readers will remember the extraordinary attack on me some years ago INSIDE THE COUNT by then Labour "leader" Steve "Squealing" Eling and his charming, snarling, wife, Pam Pulsford (aka xxx xxx in local Labour circles). I make myself available for all the Labour councillors to speak directly to me outside most full Council and Labour Group meetings. They know exactly how to contact me and that I will meet them in any venue of their choice. But many are thick and/or as rough as a badger's arse so that they - and apparently also their relatives - have no idea how to behave properly in polite society. There is also an element  here of deliberately attacking me inside the Count in the hope that I will retaliate and they can than get me thrown out.

Last Friday I noticed James Morris MP at the Count. I had never met him before and went over for a quick chat but I had hardly opened by mouth when a female Councillor and her daughter started shouting and haranguing me (this was again INSIDE the counting hall). 

I did consider writing to the Returning Officer to complain but I am hoping it will be a different person at the 2022 election!

The Non-Party's Over!

Remember the "United Sandwell Party"? I thought not lol! 

This was the "Party" former Labour Councillor's Caroline "Caz" White and Bill Cherrington said they were setting up. The vile Caz, who turned-up at the Count with her married lover and Sandwell's King Troll ex-Cllr Dave Hosell, received help from, of all people, Steve "Squealing" Eling!!! 

The "Party" briefly appeared on the SMBC website even though it was never actually registered with the Electoral Commission. And hardly before it had supposedly formed than Cherry "resigned". They both stood last week in different guises but were duly booted out. Good riddance to bad rubbish!

Starmer's Boy Done Bad!

Liam Preece is said to have been picked as the new Leader of bent Labour Sandwell Council and this was approved by the national "leader" Keir "Sir Woodenarse" Starmer himself. What could possibly go wrong? Well the folk of Charlemont and Grove Vale decided they had had quite enough of Preece thank you after nine years of his inactivity in their ward (at least as told to me by locals on a couple of visits to Stone Cross).

Quite why anyone thought him leadership material is a Labour mystery. His humiliation opens another can of worms as he has his eyes on deselecting Corbyn's mate, Ibrahim "Bogus" Dogus (remember him lol), as the parliamentary candidate for West Brom East (curiously Bogus is still hanging around WBE like a bad smell!) Labour sources told me the Sandwell Leadership could be Preece's stepping stone to Parliament (seemingly forgetting that WBE is now a Tory seat!)

Preece threw his dummy out of the pram big style when Corbyn imposed Londoner Bogus on the Constituency and, despite a few local fantasists jockeying for selection, he was the Labour front-runner by several lengths. Until Friday. To be fair to Preece, he has never abased himself before the mysteriously wealthy Bogus unlike most of the pathetic and grovelling rimmers in the local WBE Labour Party. At least he has SOME principles.

There is a by-election coming up in Sadders as there remains a vacancy in Tividale. Surely even Richard Oliver and the local Regional Office won't be sick enough to try and parachute him into this seat when he has been given the bum's rush in his his own ward? Watch this space (and the Tories did extremely well in Tivi last week and will certainly make a real fight of it). "To lose one seat may be regarded as a misfortune Mr Preece. To lose two would be bloody hilarious!"

After an intemperate outburst at The Skidder, Liam finally gave a statement to readers and showed a degree of class wholly absent from his swineish comrades:

"I have had nine years in Charlemont and Grove Vale. I am very grateful for my nine years and wish David Fisher best wishes for his term of office."

Sandwell Scum - Part One

Approximately 36,314* w*nkers voted for bent Labour in Sandwell last week in the full knowledge of the corruption, cronyism and incompetence of the sordid Dictatorship. And the Party is split down the middle locally so which side were they even voting for? How can anyone reward 47 years of Labour failure?

I have been touring Sandwell and viewing some of the absolute sh*thole Labour poverty ghettoes - in Tipton, St Paul's etc - where people live in small, overcrowded and sh*tty housing. Drugs and crime are rife in Sandwell. The dump was, at one point, the worst in the country for Covid infections despite Labour's pathetic boasting of having defeated the pandemic. Statistically you will die earlier in the Labour Borough and with increased years of pain and suffering than in most of the rest of the country. Many schools are poor. Labour completely failed with Children's Services so that physical and sexual child abuse has been rampant.

Labour brag, yes brag, that local parents cannot feed their kids whilst sp*nking at least £73m on a vanity project swimming pool. Air pollution has been shocking yet Labour destroy green space after green space.

It is no surprise that the woke weirdos of ghastly Bearwood vote Labour since they seem to get off on poverty porn. Yet some of the the biggest Labour votes come in the worst sh*tholes. Cronyism and clannishness prevail here and "community leaders" keep promising better things around the corner. But if you think they will deliver, think again. If your streets are full of dog crap/litter and crime is all-pervasive and the pavements are wonky and the street lights are out and your kids have no chance of a better life than your own sh*tty existence and the druggies are everywhere and so on and so on - this is what 47 YEARS of corrupt Labour has delivered to you. And if you voted for them you deserve to be shafted by them, and I am sure you will be for the next 12 months so suck it up losers.

If YOU are the sort of tosser who likes all this and votes Labour in Sandwell please email me with your reasons. In the meantime, if I am still alive in 12 months, I will make a decent donation to a local charity if I am not writing this all over again and those in the Labour poverty ghettoes are not still weltering in their squalor.

(Incidentally, it has been known for a long time that Rizwan Jalil and Pam Randhawa were highly likely to be selected as Labour candidates and yet a spokesperson for David Stevens and the bent paid service publicly bigged this pair up as "awesome community leaders" and similar. Stevens is the returning officer for the election. The two both won their seats and are now Labour Councillors. If you see this sort of thing going on over the next 12 months please let me know please - or the local Conservative Party for that matter.)

Bent Blues - More of the Same?

Labour, in the form of David Jamieson, had West Mids Chief Constable Dave "Call Me Dave" Thompson right under the thumb as Police and Crime Commissioner and we have seen that this manifested itself in Sadders with a series of police puppets dancing to the tune of the corrupt Council. Alas, Labour won this post again and so there is no obvious prospect of any improvement in policing in Sandwell by the Bent Blues.

Suits You!

If ever there was a visual metaphor for the slovenly, couldn't care less, attitude of Labour and the get-up-and-go attitiude of the Tories last Friday it was there for all to see in the dress standards at the Count.

As ever, the comrades looked as if they had just been begging on West Brom High Street and ambled about like mobile charity shop mannequins. Meanwhile most of the Tories - David Fisher especially - were super-smart, showed respect and brought a sense of dignity to an important civic occasion. (I say most since Liam Abrahams eschewed the suit - although he is very young - and was at least wearing what might be considered fashionable gear in this day and age.)

Appearance isn't everything but vote grunge, get grunge!


Banker Beats W*nker!

This blog prides itself on accuracy and the above headline is slightly misleading but just too good not to use! Regular readers will know that Labour tried to impose John Tipper on Old Warley Ward - a man who had been a Sandwell Councillor before when he borrowed a taxpayer-owned phoned and then used it to film himself masturbating. Labour took its usual f*ck you attitude to decent Sandwell people and Richard Oliver, the new Labour Regional Office supremo, told other Party members that he was somehow "satisfied" with Tipper's explanation of his gross and obscene conduct!

There were two seats up this time in Old Warley and Labour won one of them. But locals couldn't stomach electing a w*nker and Tipper lost - a direct rebuke to Labour and to the absurd Oliver.

One of the Tories, an intelligent local man Jay Anandou, won the second seat. Jay works for a major bank. Technically, he is not a "banker" as he works in financial analysis but, as above, the headline wrote itself lol!

Incidentally - this blog was the ONLY local media outlet to inform you of the lewd activities of Comrade J*zz since the local, left-wing, mainstream media specifically decided to hide this from the voters of Old Warley. The BBC, Express and Star and Birmingham Mail - to name but three - were all very well aware of the facts but didn't want to damage the Labour vote. They kept the information from you folks! Read The Skidder, Kidder for the truth about bent Sandwell!

Sandwell Scum - Part Two

Once again, the poll last week was blighted by low turnout. The excellent local Independent candidate in Tipton Green, Richard Jeffcoat, lost but garnered over 1,000 votes - an incredible result (and I am sure we haven't heard the last of Richard). He said this:

"If you don't vote, you think that makes a statement that you don't approve of any of them [i.e. the parties]. But you're wrong - in an area like ours, with massive dominance by one party, all you're doing is letting them do what they like. And Sandwell Labour is too dangerous and malevolent to be trusted any more."

I will be more direct. Despite the easy availability of postal voting, 159,037 Sandwell adults were too thick and/or lazy to vote. These are the xxxxs who regularly tell me they "care" about the Black Country and their communities. They claim they "will do anything for their kids". They are liars and scum with no self-respect let alone empathy for others. As above - they have been shafted by Labour for 47 years and they thoroughly deserve it. And I am sure Labour will continue to oblige for the next 12 months.

Andy Street - Mayor or Mare?

The Conservatives held the West Midlands mayoralty. But the jury is still out on Street in respect of Sandwell matters. Indeed, there is mystery in respect of his attitude to Labour's bent deal to destroy Lion Farm Fields. 

I managed to catch up with Andy last week and see what you make of his responses on Lion Farm:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXZZc3OSuOI

Horror Stories

A stalwart of the disastrous Eling Cabinet, who kept her mouth well and truly shut during that period, Kerrie Carmichael, was re-elected by the morons of Blackheath. In West Brom Central, voters mysteriously voted for "former Jewess" Laura "Sicknote" Rollins. Why, why, why?

But the prize for the this year's thickest ward goes to Wednesbury North who inflicted Peter "Zorro" Hughes, aka "Alberich", on the Borough again. Now this strutting peacock will force us all to listen to his lengthy and absurd speeches (aka "The Vagina Monologues") at meeting after meeting - a real "treat" for the new members on all sides!

Mr Blobby Humiliated

This Richard Oliver chap at Labour Regional Office is off to a flyer. Not only did he allow the selection of Tipper (see above) but the Party tried to force yet another of the awful Giles family on Sandwell in the wobbling form of "The Godfather", John Giles, in Friar Park.

West Bromwich East Labour Party is the repository of some of the nastiest people in Sandwell and they clearly tried to force another of "their own" onto local people - but with disastrous results.

As an aside, this year's count could not be held at Tipton Sports Academy as it is a Covid testing centre and so an absolutely enormous marquee village was set up at god knows what expense in Sandwell Valley. The number of security staff was absolutely astonishing and one was very aggressive indeed towards Tory candidates in Zone 1. At one point, another security man (whom I do not know) came up and, having addressed me as "Julian" (?), informed me that, due to Covid restrictions, I must not move away from the area I was allocated to (Great Barr and Yew Tree). I pointed out to him that at that precise moment, Mr Blobby Giles had left his Friar Park pitch and was talking to Jedward on the Greets Green count. (In fact he had been wobbling round the tent all morning looking as if he owned it - although that was probably Derek Rowley (joke, folks)) After much conversation, the security man did get Giles to move but later he had moved a chair and was plonked in the narrow walkway at the Newton Ward count! (As ever with the bent SMBC paid service - one rule for Labour ...) From his throne, Blobby started mouthing off at WBE MP Nicola Richards at one point - a process akin to being attacked by a poisonous jelly. Absolutely no class again from this coarse man - just a grotesque sense of entitlement typical of Sandwell Labour in general and WBE Labour in particular.

Friar Park is, of course, the ward of The Sandwell Slasher, Simon Hackett - blogs passim ad nauseum and see legal notice below.  As I have pointed out many times, his appalling cowardice has cost Sandwell hundreds of thousands of pounds which could have done so much good in his ward. But locals have finally seen the light and Blobby secured a humiliating low Labour vote.

Of course, Hackett has no shame whatsoever. He makes it a massive deal that he "walks round" Friar Park on a Sunday in case anyone wants to talk with him (big deal, and there have been many uncharitable comments locally on his weekly ramble). Although his own misconduct has undoubtedly been a factor in Labour losing the seat, this pathetic man put this on Twitter:

"Labour needs to listen to why we lost in Friar Park last Thursday. I intend to speak to as many local people as possible in our area on what went wrong and what we need to do to put it right."

Answer: (a) you are an astonishingly vain man Hackett and I'm surprised you don't own an array of mirrors and (b) resign!

Independent Candidate Wayne Trinder didn't do as well as hoped and has decided not to stand again. But Wayne is a good bloke and I am sure that when the dust settles he will still be a big part of community activity. I wish him and his family well.

Scott Chapman scored a spectacular win for the Tories and is a good bloke. Blue heaven after red hell?

* Statistical note - it is not possible to be completely sure sure of the figures on the data available since three wards elected an extra councillor. I have calculated the highest Labour figure figure in each case as it is more probable than not that most - though not all - of them also voted for the other Labour candidate.

Skidder Tactical Voting Special

Here is a complete - cut-out'n'keep - guide to Thursday's election and 10-point advice plan on tactical voting so that Sandwell folk can finally elect an opposition to the bent Labour dictatorship and show their anger at 47 years of Labour fraud, cronyism, incompetence and failure!

1   A Green Vote is a Wasted Vote

It pains me to say this as a Green supporter. A few years ago, Mike Allen and others campaigned against the destruction of green spaces in Sandwell - notably Londonderry and Lion Farm Fields. Since then their Green colleagues have done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in Sandwell and been completely anonymous - even on Lion Farm and the Labour destruction of Brandhall Golf Course. Indeed it gets worse. Their w*nker colleagues in Birmingham Greens praised the planting of some trees somewhere unspecified as ample recompense for Labour concreting over Londonderry Fields!!!! A complete waste of space!

2   A Liberal Vote is also a Wasted Vote

Apart from my friend Bertram Richards in Newton Ward (who has kindly tried to help some of the folk who have contacted this blog about housing issues without seeking any public approbation) this lot are also a complete waste of space. They have been totally silent on Labour's fraud and disastrous 47 year dictatorship - indeed Mark Smith (Great Barr and Yew Tree Ward) seems to think it is more important to fight the national government than deal with local corruption issues. How many times have the Liberals turned up on the demonstrations and other protests about Labour's shocking behaviour in recent years - NEVER! How many times have they offered support in campaigns like "Save Lion Farm" or to the likes of Gooseman - NEVER! If they are absent from the action for years on end, why should you waste your vote on them now?

(And if you vote Green or Liberal you risk splitting the opposition vote and letting bent Labour back in via the back door!)

3   Labour's Old Familiar Faeces

During the currency of this blog, the Labour Cabinet - largely white incidentally - have presided over corruption on a grand scale and also ensured the degradation of the venal paid service. If (and I say "if" because West Midlands Police have failed to investigate what has been going on) they were not guilty themselves of direct corruption they have turned a Nelsonian blind eye to the facts "for the good of the [bent] Party".

For three years Kerrie Carmichael (Blackheath Ward) sat in the Cabinet of the tyrant Steve "Squealing" Eling and - as she never blew the whistle - is presumed to have approved all that went on during that disastrous period. Another coward prepared to put Party before the people of Sandwell. If you vote for her, Blackheath, you only have yourselves to blame. (Oh, and if people should be judged on the company they keep, this dismal apparatchik is a close associate of the vile Cllr Elaine Costigan!)

Maria Crompton (Tividale Ward) was not in the Eling Cabinet but seems to be deliberately saying different things to different people about Lion Farm:

http://thesandwellskidder.blogspot.com/2021/04/crompton-lion-farm-fields.html

I will be writing about her again soon - but she has been working with the Machiavellian SMBC Chief Executive, David Stevens, to use your money to close this blog, bankrupt me and even imprison me if I write about a certain individual. It's time to get rid of people like this and, this time, Tividale needs to go Blue. Vote for Crompton if you want to destroy Lion Farm Fields!

One or two absolute deadbeats are re-standing for Labour - they have just been pathetic voting fodder for the dictatorship and if you want someone useless "representing" you choose Ann Jarvis or Susan Eaves.

4   Labour's Dodgy Characters

Of the current Councillors - as of today - who were elected as Labour Councillors, two have spent fraud convictions (which I am not allowed by law to tell you about). Another has at one point been on police bail in respect of an allegation relating to a VERY SERIOUS offence (and that is a very disturbing story indeed).

The Police are still refusing to investigate Cllr Iqbal Padda's address even though he really lives in P*******, Walsall.

Fantasist Caroline White (elected Labour but, unbelievably, re-standing as an Independent in Cradley Heath & Old Hill) has been involved in industrial scale social media trolling with her married boyfriend, ex-Cllr Dave Hosell and others, of which the Police are aware. White has moved well away from the Ward to Great Barr and has disgraced the election campaign with a particularly vile Tweet mocking the disabled (warning - a disturbing tweet and mocking image):

http://thesandwellskidder.blogspot.com/2021/04/councillor-whites-disgraceful-tweet.html

A number of Labour figures have, of course, been suspended by the Party or deselected - some in respective of allegations of anti-Semitism. Curiously Cllr Laura Rollins has escaped the cull despite her bizarre ramblings about "rich Jews". "Sicknote" has also been a serial rebel trying to bring down her own Party's current Leadership despite the Covid crisis. Yet again folks - you have been warned about this joke!

Last, but certainly not least, only Labour could show such utter contempt for the Borough by selecting John Tipper as a candidate for Old Warley. When he was a Councillor some time ago he borrowed a taxpayer-owned phone and filmed himself masturbating. This moron forgot to delete the obscene film when he handed the phone back (blogs passim and see legal notice below). Will Old Warley folk really be thick enough to vote for this w*nker???

Tipper and Vicki Darby-Smith (who is standing in Cradley Heath & Old Hill) managed to screw taxpayers' money out of their Labour cronies for a "public interest company" and then proceeded to completely f*ck-up the Blackheath Xmas Lights event in 2019 (again, posts passim and see legal notice below). So voters can actually vote for two Labour candidates with a proven record of INCOMPETENCE. Don't say you haven't been warned folks!

5   Address Mysteries

After 47 years of Labour failure Sandwell is a sh*thole - even "edgy" Bearwood "lol" - and so it is no wonder that many of the top (and highly-paid) figures (including the last two Chief Executives) in the bent paid service wouldn't dream of living in the benighted dog sh*t-smeared Borough. 

As we know, two recent Labour "Leaders" - Squealing Eling and "Red" Yvonne Davies - had "convenience" addresses in Sandwell whilst preferring to actually live far away from local scum in bucolic surroundings - in North Derbyshire and Herefordshire respectively. As we have seen, Padda lives in a Walsall cul de sac surrounded by relatives. 

Now "posh-boy" Chris Worsey, the Labour Candidate for Great Barr and Yew Tree, has openly admitted that not only does he live in his Ward but he prefers not to live in sh*thole Sandwell at all (and, as shown in recent posts - and see legal notice below - there are serious "discrepancies" about his so-called "business address").

I know Bearwood folk are - mostly - ghastly and irredeemably smug and don't care about Labour's 47-year history of failure but surely the question to more balanced local folk is: if your elected representatives don't want to live with you in Sandwell why the f*ck are you voting for them?

And don't forget how Labour keep sh*tting on local morons. Bent Labour have parachuted the invisible Charn Singh Padda in to Tipton Green (where he doesn't live) complete with a leaflet showing him litter-picking - though the photo used was immediately outed as being a staged effort at Warley Woods - miles away! Labour don't just sh*t on you, they rub your noses in it.

6   Independents - some superb options

I am anxious that the anti-Labour vote is not split but there are four of the Independent candidates standing on Thursday who are exceptional. I have written about them in recent posts but these are all people who would be excellent councillors actually REPRESENTING their communities. Ian Jones has some "baggage" but would be a great anti-corruption Councillor in the new set-up. So The Skidder says VOTE

Friar Park:

Wayne Trinder - great bloke backed by The People of Wednesbury And Wednesbury Action Group

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9etl-J9USKU&t=10s

Tipton Green:

Richard Jeffcoat - vote for an intelligent, hardworking and immensely likeable chap. Tipton - you NEED this guy!

(I arranged to meet Richard at 7.30 am in Tipton the other morning and he had already been out campaigning since 6.00 am!)

In a curious twist Richard, a professional musician, is noted for playing the organ as, in a different way, is John "W*nker" Tipper lol!

Great Barr and Yew Tree

Darryl Magher - a doughty community activist for many YEARS who will sweat blood for the Ward  if elected. Lives in the Ward unlike Labour's Chris Worsey who doesn't even live in Sandwell.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVqotmJfU_k&t=13s

Princes End

Ian Jones - experienced warhorse & ward Councillor who will hold bent Labour to account!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfi6GbnuJP4&t=2s

If Sandwell votes for these four plus some of the best Tory candidates they can bring real change to the Borough and stop further Labour corruption. Now is your big chance for change folks!

7   Five+ Blues

There are three reasons why you should vote for some of the excellent Tory candidates this time round.

 Firstly, in December, 2019 the people of Sandwell finally got off their knees and hit back at bent Labour so that three of the four MP's covering the Borough are now Conservative. Weak people who whined, "it's no good voting cos Labour always get in" were proved wrong. The good ship "Sandwell" is now, slowly, being turned away from the rocks but James Morris, Shaun Bailey and Nicola Richards need some more crew to help them. They need a cadre of good hardworking people doing the grunt work locally and going toe to toe EVERY DAY with the corrupt Labour Councillors and their bent paid service. Many hands make light work.

Secondly, if the Conservatives get at least five seats they can constitute an official opposition. This is very important given the Labour corruption since it will, amongst other things, allow the Tory councillors to have advance notice of documents produced by the bent paid service at the bidding of the Party. At last there will be people there who can properly scrutinise what bent Labour are up to and expose fraud and incompetence. You need at least five a day folks!

Thirdly, the pathetic Labour cohort is filled with thick, lazy, people just there to do as they are told. Many have never done real work outside of Labour-front organisations (if that) and most have never created any wealth or prosperity for themselves and their families let alone the wider community. (There are some exceptions - I toured some of the real sh*thole areas of Tipton the other day and then viewed, by way of contrast, the big houses with gated compounds of Syeda Khatun and scumbag-extraordinaire Billa). These Labour jokers have no real-life experience outside an insular bubble where they simply grovel for handouts. They will never bring jobs and economic health to Sadders - they haven't in 47 years and they won't now. They don't have the skillset or even the will.  Look at Peter Hughes, the vile and absurd self-styled "Master" of scrutiny who had to give up home ownership to rent a property. I quite like Zahoor Ahmed but even the Muslim community around Smethwick agree he's not the sharpest tool in the box. Look at deadbeats like Ann Jarvis, Sue Eaves, the three Giles's, Rouf, Keith Allcock, Puffing Jenny Chidley (druggie of the Parish), Costigan, London-based Kauser, Millar, Simms, and Jackie Taylor "lol" to name but a few. By contrast many of the Conservative candidates are grafters, working people who want to do right by their families and communities and providing helping hands rather than handouts. People like Fajli Bibi in West Brom Central who have the actual knowldge and networks to help make all of Sandwell richer, healthier and cleverer. Does Sandwell want workers or w*nkers? The choice is yours on Thursday folks!

I have not been able to meet some of the Conservatives I wanted to (and some of them didn't want to share their story with Skidder readers) so that some of what follows is from personal experience and some from hearsay (although from authorative sources). If in doubt, the solution is to vote Conservative as, for the reasons given above, they have the best chance of doing good in the awful Labour poverty ghetto. The following deserve attention in alphabetical ward order:

Blackheath - Greg Allman - good connections and anything is better than Carmichael!

Bristnall - Connor Jones - a Tory who has been around and has been a supporter of campaigns against bent Labour's destruction of so much green space.

Charlemont and Grove Vale - David Fisher - another grafter. Local man, works in Great Bridge, community activist, what's not to like? See the video and see a switched-on guy raring to go. Electing this chap would have the double advantage of getting rid of the hapless Labour puppet, Liam Preece!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiU_sWvOTrM&t=1s

Cradley Heath & Old Hill - Satinder Dunn - worked 30 years at the Heart of Darkness itself and "saw where the money went". Bright, bubbly and a lovely person. Elect her against the aforementioned Labour crony Vicki Darby-Smith (see above).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5HSnhuWUFk

(I would have recommended Scott Chapman in Friar Park - excellent fellow but, sorry mate, it HAS to be Independent Wayne Trinder - see above!)

Great Bridge - William Gill - a voice for youth amidst the Labour fossils. Young but lively and will "give it a go"!

Hateley Heath - Les Trumpeter - yes, another young-ish (!) grafter. Born and bred in Sandwell and works in Oldbury. Les is a "details" man and will cause corrupt Labour no end of grief if you elect him. Let's get the Council run properly folks:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRgrARHE9Bs&t=1s

Newton - Lee Williams - (although see above about my friend Bertram Richards). Lee has been around a while and offers a good choice as Labour has split the seat. Out goes one of the few pleasant Labour Councillors, Joyce Underhill, who has left bent Labour and is standing as an Independent, and in comes one of the grotesque Giles clan if folk are thick enough to vote for her. Play safe - go Lee!

Old Warley (2 seats) - Jay Anandou - there are two seats up for grabs here this year and one of them MUST go to Jay! Another hardworking family man this guy is not only very pleasant but INTELLIGENT. Surely Sandwell folk want someone with some brain cells on the Council (see also Richard Jeffcoat above)? Bizarrely Jay, who has Indian heritage, was vilely dimissed on a troll account linked to some councillors and local journalists as "a black man"! This guy is good in his own right but is Old Warley really going to vote for Labour masturbator, John Tipper?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exgIznR_00I&t=6s

Tividale - Emma Henlan - a good local candidate. ALL Tory local candidates have said they are opposed to the destruction of nearby Lion Farm Fields unlike Emma's opponent Maria Crompton who is saying one thing whilst Labour are doing another. (And Crompton has been in the Cabinet pushing the destruction of Brandhall Golf Course too!)

Wednesbury South (2 seats) - Ian Chambers and Dave Wilkes - how much longer are Wednesbury people going to see their town ruined by Labour and two of the vilest of vile Labour Councillors, Costigan and Peter Hughes? Ian and Dave are a breath of fresh air up by the Wednesbury cesspit. They have been out and about campaigning like mad. Dave is a mate and has been indefatigable with volunteering during Covid. If elected he will be one massive pain in the arse for bent Labour but make it a double folks!

West Bromwich Central - Fajli Bibi - one smart woman in all ways. Sassy and bright - sort of Prada to the charity shop grunge of "former Jewess" Laura Rollins. Bubbly and enthusiastic compared to the dour insular Rollins. This is someone who will GET THINGS DONE. West Brom - vote against more Labour corruption and vote for positive change - THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT - THE FUTURE'S BIBI!

8   Oddities

In a recent post I wrote how the Skidder team had been discussing the five most horrible Labour Councillors. There was some debate about position 5 and Cllr Bob Piper just missed the cut but make no mistake, he is a really nasty p*ss-taking piece of work. Lest we forget he must be one of the few Labour Chairs of local Licensing Committees to have walked into a pub and shouted "Seig Heil" whilst making a Nazi salute! Curiously Labour sources tell me that he has an odd relationship (not in a physical way) with the candidate for the awful Abbey Ward, one Nicky Hinchcliff. Perhaps opposites attract as I am told that Nicky is a "nice" person. I am told she is an intelligent professional person and yet she allegedly holds Piper in god-like reverence! With a guru and mentor like that nasty old sod, what can possibly go wrong if she is elected?

9   Lion Farm Fields

ALL Labour councillors have backed the deeply corrupt deal to destroy Lion Farm Fields and it must be assumed that all candidates have agreed to toe the Party line if elected. As above. Tividale will be heavily affected by any development and should not elect Maria Crompton.

ALL local Conservative candidates believe the proposed development should not go ahead on this huge and vital green space as do MP's James Morris and Nicola Richards. (Worryingly Shaun Bailey MP has refused to state his position as has Andy Street, the Tory mayoral candidate who is a massive rimmer of the proposed developer and this is a considerable cause for concern locally).

The Greens and Liberals have done f*ck all about the Fields since further agitation to save the Fields started in 2017.

Former Labour Langley Councillor Sharon Davies was deselected by Labour. She has left the Party and is standing as an Independent. Even though there is considerable opposition to the development on Lion Farm Davies thinks she knows best and is STILL in favour of destroying the Fields.

Despite the situation with Street and Bailey the safest votes to save the Fields are CONSERVATIVE!

10   Liam Byrne

This is the Labour liar who is standing for WM Mayor. He was the prat who was Chief Secretary to the Treasury last time Labour was in Government when they very nearly bankrupted the country. He left a joke note to his successor that there was no money left. Do you really want an idiot like that running the West Mids?

Lately, Byrne - with the full knowledge and, seemingly, connivance, of Labour "Leader" Keir "Sir Woodenarse" Starmer - has been openly lying that he is already "Shadow Mayor of the West Midlands" when he is NOT. This is an outright LIE he has been peddling for many months even though he is an MP. No such position even exists! VOTE FOR LIARS AT YOUR PERIL FOLKS!

And finally - this is the reality of the poisonous pools in Labour Sandwell not a hugely expensive vanity project ...

Here are the details of all candidates standing in the election on Thursday:
