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:

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!
