Hilarious Carmichael Appointment + "The Patrolling Paedo"!

Well the big news this week in bent Labour Sandwell Council is that Cllr Kerrie Carmichael is to be the new "Leader". I informed Skidder readers about the advice given to me many moons ago (and one of the few tips I have ever taken on board) - "Never trust a f*cker who keeps grinning at you!" I vouchsafed this gem in respect of the former Chief Executive, the slippery and now sacked David Stevens. How right I was too. But it also fits the bill with The Haranguing Hamster who must be a fine actor/actress (use depending on your wokeness) since she has spent years concealing any talent or ability as a Councillor behind a simpering smile.

***********************************************************************************

In my last post I wrote how the High Court shafted me for over £22,000 despite Lisa McNally losing her case in its entirety. I am so grateful for the donations rolling in, large and small, and thank you all. Please use the donate button on the side of these posts if you can chuck in a few bob to keep the important work of exposing Sandwell corruption going. (If you read the blog on a phone you need to click through to the web-version to find the yellow donate button.) Cheques also welcome payable to J P Saunders. Address - 11 Chelworth Road, Birmingham B38 0BG. I am unable to accept donations via other methods I'm afraid. Love y'all!

***********************************************************************************

Carmichael represents a step back to the bad old days of Cooper and Eling when she sat on her hands as Sandwell became a byword for corruption, cronyism and incompetence. But this car-crash appointment from Starmer and Spellar - after their disastrous selection of Rajbir "Mr Bean" Singh - will provide us with plenty of merriment given The Hamster's true colours. Lest we forget, it was the Carmichael who lost all-self control and shrieked abuse at me INSIDE the election count in May (in front of James Morris MP). Absolute trash, and an accident waiting to happen. Watch this space.

There are rumours that The Hamster's new deputy with be the Sandwell Slasher himself. But the truth is just about to come out about Hackett costing Sandwell people colossal sums as he tried to evade responsibility from an obvious breach of confidentiality/data breach. Again, watch this space folks.


Adam Smith

I have written recently (see previous posts and legal notice below) about this guy who, incredibly, has been taken on by the Wolvo C-Suckers, aka the Express and Star, despite his track record. And, already, a Councillor tells me s/he has put in a complaint to his new employers. 

The Councillor says s/he met Smith at an event the other day. S/he complained to Smith that he had referred to him/her as being "as thick as sh*t" on social media. He was at work for the E&S at this event but told the Councillor in front of witnesses - "That's because you are". He then - bizarrely - accused him/her of sending money to a well-known figure from the history of this blog - a clearly defamatory allegation. 

At least the greaser Smith is a major, metaphorical, rimmer of one grinning Sandwell figure - and oft sings the praises of The Hamster! 


Padda's Brass Neck

Cllr Padda is a really pathetic man. When I was leafletting the neighbouring houses to his Walsall home, he set a young-ish female relative on me whilst he hopped about like a constipated flamingo in the background. He then got the Bent Blues at West Midlands Police to harass me.

Now he is whining because Labour have deselected him, even though he should never have been a Sandwell Councillor in the first place given that he lives in Walsall (see posts passim and legal notice below). By the time he goes, he will have had four years of allowances from us taxpayers plus enhanced payments for being on committees.

An artful construct was set up whereby it is claimed he actually lives in a sh*thole house in Bromford Lane, West Brom. In a previous post (which I rely on) the owners of the property welcomed me with open arms when I went to their house asking about Padda - a unique greeting since the usual one I receive from bent Labour cronies is "f off"! They assured me that Padda paid them rent for the property AND lived there.

But frequent visits to the scruffy house were unsuccesful in finding anyone resident at all. And no sign of Padda's car anywhere nearby. Neighbours who were shown a photo of him stated they had "NEVER" seen him anywhere near the property. 

But a surprise was in store last April when the door was opened by a gent and this, er, intercourse took place:

18th April, 2021: 12.19.05 

Me: Hi, I’m looking for Iqbal Padda 

Tenant: [Silence] 

Me: Iqbal? 

Tenant: Yeah? 

Me: He lives here? 

Tenant: Yeah, he lives here. 

Me: Do you rent this property? 

Tenant: Yeah it’s Padda house? 

Me: It’s what? 

Tenant: It’s Padda house 

Me: Padda house [yeah from tenant]. Right OK, it’s not the people up at Stone Cross then? 

Tenant: I don’t know. 

Me: You pay your rent to Iqbal Padda? 

Tenant: Yes [inaudible] yes pay it [?] 

Me: How long you been doing that? 

Tenant: It’s long time. I don’t know [?] A long time. 

Me: But he doesn’t actually live in the house? 

Tenant: Living here, yeah. 

Me: He’s living here. 

Tenant: Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Me: Oh right, OK 

Tenant starts to shut door.

Perhaps I am getting cynical in my old age but this guy gave all the hallmarks of having been schooled on what to say. If any of this is remotely true (and I have collated further evidence suggesting it is not) then it raises another interesting question as to why this "socialist" is sub-letting the property and taking rent from this individual? 

Suspended Manager

There were a few people who contacted The Skidder concerning the suspension of a Sandwell employee for alleged bullying. Now I am being told she has walked straight into a new job at another Council! No wonder local government has such a rotten reputation. (Any further details welcome.)

And an Old Friend [sic] is on the move again:

You will be distressed to hear that hapless Sadders reject "Dr" [non-medical] Alison Knight has left her, wait for it - £800-a-day post in Croydon. But cheer up - she's gone to Broxbourne Council in Hertfordshire. The gravy train just keeps on rolling along ...

Randhawa and The Patrolling Peado

I wrote recently about the normally gobby Cllr Pam Randhawa's sudden loss of voice when I asked about her failure to declare her position as Chair of the Bent Blues - WMP - "Independent"Advisory Group on her Register of Interests.

Now she has lost the power of speech (again) about her knowledge of the Sex Offender who was allowed to join the street watch group and pick his way around the dog-turds keeping Sadders, er, safe. This is despite the fact that he had supposedly been vetted by the cops (and I would still welcome comment from Chief Sup't Ian Green on this!) Here is the email I sent Randhaw last Monday which remains unanswered.

Dear Cllr Randhawa,

THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION

I am informed that you have been aware for some time that a local street watch "patroller" in Sandwell is a registered sex-offender. Please state:

When you personally became aware of this; and

What action you took about this and when.

Kindly respond by 4pm, Tuesday 23rd November, 2021.

ADDENDUM 01/12/21

Cllr Randhawa has written to me saying that, contrary to the evidence I received, she knows nothing about this individual. She has said she will "escalate it" with the Police.

Another Victory (Not - Lol) For The Skidder ...

I recently wrote to the corrupt Labour Council about their egregious redaction of names of small businesses receiving Covid and other payments. This was obviously unlawful.

A reply has come from the mercenary (temporary) Chief Exec saying - in another of those wonderful Sandwell "coincidences" - that the "Finance Department " had already noticed this "administrative error" and a revised schedule will be made public on or before 10th December. Kim Bromley-Derry was at pains to tell me that this cock-up - yet another episode of SMBC incompetence (if that is the genuine reason for the attempted secrecy) - was solely down to the Finance Department and that no other section of the Council was involved! Oooooh, who's rattled his cage amongst the beancounters?

Fancy me raising something only to find bent Labour were already putting it right!!!!!

High Court Shafts Victorious Blogger For £22k

The Media and Communications Court - part of the High Court in London - is the playground of millionaires, celebs, Russian oligarchs and the like. Huge sums are spent on spats like the ongoing "Wagatha Christie" case between two footballers' wives.

I have had two experiences of this Court as people have tried to close this blog down and destroy me financially. It is my honest preception that the Judges there find my attempts to expose the major corruption, cronyism and incompetence at bent Labour Sandwell Council distasteful - certainly they abhor the style of my journalism. Unfortunately, for the wo/man on the street (or aboard the Clapham omnibus as lawyers say) the Court has a neat way of punishing even the victorious - disallow the costs of top lawyers for ordinary scum like me. Skew the roulette wheel so that the Establishment ALWAYS wins.

Earlier this year Lisa McNally, bent Sandwell's Director of Public Health. sued me for alleged harassment and data breach (the latter, unbelievably, for comments about stuff she herself had put on Twitter!). She self-describes suffering from serious mental health problems and, firstly, claimed that I was somehow mocking her mental health issues - which was always untrue. Secondly, she took umbrage when I pointed out that although the mainstream press call her "Dr" McNally when she is pronouncing on medical matters, "Dr" in her case is an academic title and she is not, not ever has been, a medical doctor (GMC-registered). Because this was true she couldn't sue me for defamation and so, with her co-conspirators at bent Sandwell (including Stevens, Tour and Crompton), cooked-up the ridiculous "harassment" charge. The unlawful use of taxpayers' money to support this conspiracy was even more bizarre as the case related to McNally's PERSONAL Twitter account.

This malicious woman sought an injunction, backed with a penal order, in the mosts draconian terms including that I did not go within 50 metres of her. In other words, if she got her Order she could seek to have me imprisoned if I went anywhere near her. As I have NEVER been near her or met her this was totally absurd.

McNally brought the case in her own name. But even though she earns in excess of £105,000 per annum (plus contributions to a gold-plated pension) she conspired with the top brass at bent Sandwell (who have spent YEARS trying to destroy me and this blog) and they agreed with Cllr Maria Crompton to unlawfully fund her ridiculous case with taxpayers' money.

In civil cases there is usually what is called a "protocol" process which is intended to encourage settlement of cases before they get to the issue of court proceedings. A team of lawyers at bent Sandwell including four solicitors, Surjit Tour, Maria Price, Julia Lynch and Vanessa Maher-Smith seemingly egged her-on, bolstered by the unlawful taxpayer-funding. It was quite obvious during the aggressive attitude towards me when I was desperately trying to sort out a lawyer that the Lynch mob had no intention of settling the matter without my total surrender. At a time when I was unrepresented, Lynch tried to force me to sign a "consent order" wherein I effectively admitted my guilt!

Lynch then served a 529-page bundle of papers on me (but missed a key document relevant to my defence) packed full of deeply prejudicial material going back years - and long before McNally was even employed at the Council. (Even more documents were to follow.) This was intended to swamp me with legal costs from the outset and force me to capitulate.

Lynch refused a protocol time extension when she was aware that I was close to securing legal representation and issued court proceedings (although she forgot to serve the emergency injunction application backed with the penal notice!)

Via an organisation, a top media lawyer in London looked at the papers and offered to act as he considered McNally's case to be hopeless. In the meantime, I had been speaking with the exceptional Mark Lewis of Patron Law and - by a matter of minutes - agreed terms with him before the other offer came in.

Mark is a force of nature. He is a top media lawyer working in high-profile cases. The first thing he did was give ME an almighty bollocking for even trying to agree terms with Lynch. But he was an absolute rock at a time of incredible stress and his team (Megan and Johnnie) also provided splendid support. Alas, lawyers of this quality do not come cheap (although Mark tried to help me - particularly in respect of the initial costs).

Mark Lewis is an incredible tactician and set about Lynch and "team" (they soon started complaining that HE was being aggressive at a time when THEY were trying to seek my eventual loss of liberty!).

Money was no object to the malevolent McNally as she wasn't paying for her own case and so she greedily added-in a claim for £10,000 damages for herself at the last minute. And only the "best" - or so she thought - as she was screwing us taxpayers, and she used a QC Aileen McColgan all the way. Thus she claimed:

  1. An emergency injunction with penal notice;
  2. Damages of £10,000;
  3. A "permanent" injunction.
  4. Costs (EVEN THOUGH SHE HAD NO COSTS LIABILTY AS SHE WAS SCREWING THE TAXPAYER TO PAY FOR HER!)

Mark fired a withering salvo at Lynch and instructed a top media barrister, Richard Munden (5RB Chambers), to represent me at the forthcoming hearing of the risible emergency injunction application. On his preliminary view, Richard opined that my journalism was protected by rules of free speech and that, in any event, my comments did not amount to harassment either "quantitavely or qualitatively". Even on a quick view he thought McNally's case was hopeless. Once again though, a top-lawyer like Richard (who frequently acts for millionaire celebs) does not come cheap.

Just before the emergency injunction hearing, McNally dropped this part of the claim but decided to fight on to try and get some money for herself and to get a "permanent" injunction.

Mark and Richard (rightly) thought from the off that she had no chance and applied to strike out her claim as having no real prospects of success. For non-lawyers, this is not quite as straightforward as it sounds since, for the purpose of the application only, the Judge has to accept that what McNally was saying was the truth (although we put in considerable evidence to the effect that most of it was not).

Another hearing was listed in London. Just beforehand, McNally dropped her ludicrous data protection claim. Richard Munden (great guy) was absolutely superb - both in his preparation and on the day. The decision was reserved and, unfortunately, there was no time to discuss the issue of costs which, with the benefit of hindsight, was unfortunate, to say the least.

The case was duly struck out. Just think about that for a minute. McNally herself withdrew her ridiculous emergency injunction application and the data breach claim when it was absolutely clear she has NO prospects of success. Then she suffered a humiliating defeat when the Judge decided he would not even allow her to proceed with her case. That is as comprehensive a victory as it was possible to get in these circumstances. But I have ended up out of pocket to the tune of £22,384.12p when the Judge decided that scum like me was not entitled to recover the full costs of using a top-class, though expensive, legal team - even when Sandwell had a whole team of solicitors and a QC on the case! Read on below the panel ...

***********************************************************************************

This has been a major financial hit for me and even given the generosity of Skidder readers I cannot recover that sort of loss. But I am not giving up in the face of this sort of intimidation. You good folk can help me keep the blog going with a small donation. 

Please use the "donate" button on the side panel of this post. If you are reading via a mobile you need to click through to the "webpage" to find the "donate" button. 

I know some folk prefer to send cheques. These too gratefully received payable to "J P Saunders" at 11 Chelworth Road, Birmingham B38 0BG

***********************************************************************************

The Judge had to decide the issue of costs via written submissions. What is not clear is whether he realised that bent Sandwell were unlawfully using taxpayers money to fund the highly-paid McNally rather than just providing "support". Did he think she was picking-up the tab personally and go easier on her? Or was he trying to save taxpayer money - which he seemimgly didn't realise was being used unlawfully - at MY expense? We just don't know.

Unfortunately Aileen McColgan QC wrote a highly misleading email to the Court. Richard Munden put in his fees - which were on the high-side but reflected his mastery of the subject and the excellence of his presentation. Given her performance on the papers and in Court, McColgan had nothing to be proud of, but boasted to the Judge about her "Leading Counsel" status and that she had only charged £10k for the hearing. In effect she was saying that Richard - who is not a QC (yet!) - should get less irrespective of his far superior performance throughout. But what McColgan failed to tell the Court was that she was receiving plenty of taxpayers' loot via the bent Council before the hearing, and so her total fee was not £10k but, er, £40.717.50 plus VAT!

Richard Munden pointed out to the Court the vicious nature of McNally's claim:

"The relief sought in the claim was of great importance to the Defendant, a private individual. The Claimant, supported throughout by the Council (who have for years been trying to close the Defendant's blog) sought not only damages, interest and costs (which would have been very substantial had the matter continued), but also a wide-ranging injunction... the breach of which could have seen him imprisoned for five years.

"The matter was complex and specialised, being a claim in the Media and Communications List of the High Court raising particular freedom of expression issues. (And he pointed out that McNally had "chosen" to use Leading Counsel throughout.)

"The matter was also very important for the Defendant's reputation. If he had been found to have unlawfully harassed the Claimant, in addition to the financial and injunctive consequences, that would have been highly damaging to his reputation and would likely have made it very difficult for him to continue his journalism. The freedom of expression element in respect of bloggers (especially on political matters) raised issues of public importance.

"In the circumstances he was entitled to use specialist Media solicitors and counsel …"

The Judge considered that for the purposes of a strike out application it had been unnecessary to put in detailed evidence to rebut the hundreds of pages of irrelevant and highly prejudicial material McNally chucked in! One rule for one ...

And bent Sandwell's costs - over £100,000 - were still higher than mine in total but I still lost out when the Judge reduced MY recoverable costs.

And so the Judge ordered McNally - i.e. YOU the taxpayer - to only pay £49,747.20 despite being told that I had had to sell remaining equity in my home to fight off the malicious claim. This has left me out of pocket, despite defeating EVERY aspect of the case, in the above-mentioned sum of £22,284.12. This is what the British Establishment do to people who get a bit uppity. They talk about rights whilst shafting you up the derriere. This is British civil justice folks if you are an ordinary Jill or Joe - you win, but you still pay! British civil courts are only open to the rich.

In an extraordinary attempt to influence the Court, McNally had claimed that she would have to resign her job (!) if she didn't get her injunction but she continues in her highly-paid post having left you taxpayers with a bill in excess of £100,000 (including the costs of Sandwell's solicitors and McColgan) for matters relating to her personal Twitter account. Time Sandwell started clawing the costs back from her pay eh readers?

Technical Blog - Redactions from Statutory Payments List

This is a technical blog "for the record". It is a short post sent to today to the Interim Chief Executive of bent Labour Sandwell Council, Kim Bromley-Derry, copied to the Interim "Leader" Maria Crompton (for what that is worth) and to two of the Conservative opposition Councillors.

"Dear Mr Bromley-Derry,

THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION AND IS BEING RELEASED VIA THE SANDWELL SKIDDER BLOG.

I have noticed that Sandwell Council is breaking the law (yet again) by failing to provide appropriate details on its list of Payments over £500 each month (a statutory requirement).

In particular, there are vast swathes of the recent lists redacted particularly from the "Resources" budget. Anecdotal evidence is that your legal department is attempting to censor the list using spurious data protection arguments but, if that is true, it won't wash as the payments - particularly Covid grants to businesses (even if one wo/man bands) since the payments are for businesses, not individuals.

There are allegations (and I put it no higher than that at present) that these redactions have been made to deliberately conceal payments to Labour members and cronies collecting these funds and/or receiving other SMBC payments out. I repeat that there is a statutory obligation to publish the full details except where the law permits redactions in very specific circumstances e.g in respect of children in care.

To avoid the expense of judicial review proceedings please ensure that the full unredacted details are published forthwith

Perhaps when replying you can kindly confirm whether KBD Solutions Limited or any other company controlled by you has received any payment which should have been listed but where the information has not yet been listed or has been redacted.

Starmer's Useless Puppet Implodes!

 Most of you will have heard the news that the arrogant tyro "Leader" of bent Labour Sandwell Council has mysteriously disappeared up his own ars*hole! Not only has "The Boy Blunder" Rajbir Singh quit as Leader [sic] but he has also given up his Bristnall seat! No explanation has been given but this is a very serious matter which reflects badly of the hapless Labour Party right up to Sir Woodenarse himself!

Keir Starmer said he was going to personally "sort out" the disastrous Sandwell Labour Group. Plan A was to make Tom Watson rimmer-extraordinaire, Liam Preece, the new Leader last May. But the voters of Charlemont and Grove Vale had suffered several years of this ineffectual greaser's failures and threw him out! He did not have the guts to stand in the marginal Tividale by-election - which bent Labour also lost - and remains in exile. Of course, John Spellar MP (who is said to have the ear of Sir Woodenarse) is heavily and malignly involved in internal Labour matters in Sadders despite purporting to represent his failing constituency from his South London/Kentish home. Thus he and his gallowglass, Gurinder Josan (a member of Labour's National Executive Committee), bizarrely appointed the arrogant Singh as Leader, even though he had only been on the Council for three years and displayed no discernible talent or ability.

Immediately, The Boy Blunder was out of his depth. He sacked David Stevens at huge (as yet undisclosed) cost to us taxpayers, failed to release the explosive Cox Review including evidence of appalling racism, tried to cover-up the SEND contract fiasco, presided over a bin strike, was caught out over the vicious Labour plan to close Walker Grange and sat helplessly by as the unapologetic Mayor let the last full Council meeting descend into chaos. There is much more if the rumours are true. Watch this space.


The Labour Party realised that the feeble Rajbir knew nothing and promised that Labour Party nannies would "mentor" him. But, being "socialists", they expected the taxpayer to fund this nonsense and appointed a Labour Party woman from Scotland to wipe Singh's botty. The former actress, Imogen Walker, was supposed to go on the payroll and take our money so that she could act "lol" as "Interim Head of the Leader's Office". Bent Labour said this unelected person would advise Sandwell Labour's answer to Mr Bean "on issues surrounding political strategy and leadership" ROFLMAO. That was our money well spent by Labour wasn't it folks? If this person is still on the payroll she needs to be got rid of instantly and I hope the Conservative opposition are on to this right now!

Curiously, I emailed Singh yesterday just minutes before I got the news he has also run away from his Council seat. I don't suppose he will reply now lol:

"Dear Cllr Singh,

THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION

I know from debacles like the dismissal of Stevens that you are too weak to explain the exact cause of your sudden but well deserved fall from grace.

However, you stated to the press that you have responsibilities "to my businesses" - plural. On your Register of Interests you only refer to a single business, Ample Food {sic] Limited. Please confirm which other businesses you are involved with.

Incidentally, you state on your Register of Interests that you are "an owner and director of Ample Food [sic] Limited". You signed a legal declaration to that effect on 21st June, 2021 and yet your declaration appears to be false, since Companies House say you resigned as a Director on 5th April, 2019 (the termination notice being electronically filed on 2nd October, 2019 - long before your legal declaration.) Why did you lie about this?

Kindly reply by 4pm Thursday, 18th November."

Spellar has been a poisonous influence in Sandwell for far too long and Starmer needs to realise this if he is going to poke his nose in locally again!

Incidentally, Sir Woodenarse and Spellar are big supporters of Jewish causes and Starmer promised that he was going to tackle the rampant anti-semitism that festered under Corbyn. Which makes the appointment of Cllr Bob "Seig Heil" Piper (Labour, Abbey) to the Sandwell Cabinet completely perplexing. Like former Leader, "Red" Yvonne Davies, Piper would probably claim that he is not an anti-semite but "just" anti the State of Israel. His writing over the years has dripped with constant virulent criticism of Israel and its inhabitants but somehow all this mysteriously got deleted from his Twitter account before the Starmer suspensions started (including a spat with me when he demanded the Israelis "hand back the Golan Heights" when the Syrian Civil War was raging and when he failed to respond to my question to whom the Israelis were to give this land back to!) Piper laughably sees himself as a Labour Brahmin whereas he is just a nasty piece of work who shouts "Seig Heil" in crowded pubs and cannot seemingly distinguish between hoping that people who happen to live in Israel are somehow harmed and, er, Jews. Come on Piper, tell us all - and Starmer and Spellar - what you really think!"

Express and Star attack Crompton

I was wrong about Maria Crompton (Labour, Tividale). I always thought she was like the Harry Enfield character, "Nice-But-Dim". Whenever I have spoken with her she appears to have difficulty comprehending what I am saying (even when I'm sober). The lights appear to be on, but there is no-one in.

But she came to me directly for assistance over the shocking behaviour of former Sandwell Labour tyrant, Steve "Squealing" Eling. With her Cllr partner, Pete Allen (Labour, Great Bridge) they became supporters of The Skidder and were able to help me, including in particular, with the Jenny Chidley (Labour, Princes End) drug-taking story (and other info about her). Thus it was with some astonishment that she shafted me in February, 2021 by making the unlawful decision to force Sandwell folk to pay for Lisa McNally's hopeless case.

What is particularly galling is that I always considered Crompton to be feisty and brave but, alas, I was wrong again. I texted her when the McNally conspiracy started and she immediately tried to pass the buck to (now-sacked) Chief Exec, David Stevens. She was determined to destroy me but didn't have the bottle to look me in the eye whilst she did so.

And it gets worse. I now know that she was an active player in the conspiracy with McNally, Surjit Tour and Stevens to shaft me and that she personally signed-off the unlawful funding arrangements which eventually cost us taxpayers OVER £100,000 whilst the highly-paid McNally (over £105k pa plus gold-plated pension) has paid absolutely f all. I duly wrote to Crompton as follows:

"Dear Cllr Crompton,

THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL  COMMUNICATION 

In February,  you tried to pass the buck for the McNally conspiracy to Stevens whereas I now know that you directly approved the disastrous litigation yourself and have (unlawfully) cost the taxpayer over £100,000.

I suspect that your decision was ill-informed because you were fed incorrect legal and other advice from Stevens and/or Tour. Accordingly please send me the report from officers upon which you based your decision and a copy of your decision notice.

Please also confirm the enquiries you made of the officers, if any, before you gave your approval."

This gutless woman could not even muster a reply but instead passed it direct to the corrupt paid service who are treating it as a "Freedom of Information Request" so that Crompton can try and keep the truth concealed for many months, if not forever. Her reward - she has been appointed "Acting Leader" where, incredibly, she has promised "business as usual" - exactly what the people of Sadders are sh*t-scared of!

Incidentally, Rajbir Singh was immediately notified of the unlawful funding arrangement for McNally's case as soon as he became "Leader" but also did absolutely nothing as the ship sailed merrily towards the iceberg. Pathetic!

At least I am not alone in my criticism of the cowardly Crompton. The Wolvo-C*cksuckers are now publicly - and possibly libellously - describing her as being "the favourite" of ex-Cllr Mahboob Hussain, clearly implying, m'lud, that she is in his pocket! 



Discriminatory Bullying of Council Tenants

In a recent post, I explained how vicious Labour fascists in bent Labour Sandwell Cabinet were trying to unlawfully persecute Council tenants:


There has been widespread criticism of this evil plan of Crompton, Bostan and their "socialist" cronies and I want to recommend a piece by a nationally-known Housing Lawyer/Expert who is astounded by what these corrupt Labour so and so's are trying to get away with now:


But folk keep grovelling to bent Labour!

I remember watching an adapataion of Tom Brown's Schooldays hundreds of years ago. When the bullies caned the younger pupils the latter had to thank them for meting out severe punishment. A similar scene is often played out in corrupt Sandwell where Labour try to shaft local folk up the derriere and these people are then pathetically GRATEFUL when the "socialists" are forced to drop their assaults.

I think this form of grovelling is known as "Black Patch Syndrome" after the Labour plan to destroy the eponymous green space was thwarted by campaigners who then sat in OCH making thumbs-up and other sickening signs of obeisance at the tyrannical Squealer, an architect of the scheme.

We saw it again with the Goldicroft Park debacle where many campaigners cheered Labour to the rooftops for backing down on their own crazed plan. Those folk should take a look at this link and see how Labour are still covering-up the truth of what happened and who was responsible. Ask yourselves, naive Goldicroft folk - why is this Freedom of Information request not being answered by Labour?


Now, and I am really sorry to say this, the brilliant Walker Grange campaigners are at it. Bent Labour wanted to close Walker Grange Care Home and sell off the site. They posited that a survey was needed in the hope that they "might find major structural faults" as an excuse to destroy it. The campaigners have been indefatigable and absolutely brilliant but what did they do when the corrupt Council signalled defeat - they sickeningly gave one Rajbir Singh (who he? Ed) and Labour a photo opportunity as the saviours of the Home! And today the likes of the Haranguing Hamster, Cllr Carmichael (Labour, Trailer Park Blackheath) have been crowing that, er, Labour have saved the Home they were, er, intent on destroying! 

This must be sickening for all the Tories who worked so hard to save the Home, notably Shaun Bailey MP (WBW) and the exceptional and valiant Cllr Archer Williams (Conservative, Princes End). But people in Sandwell seem to like the Tom Brown Schooldays treatment and I am sure Labour will soon be along to f you over again soon! Still, you reap what you sow!

A Pre-Xmas Quiz

I was in a pub in a quiet part of Brum the other day. Inside, I met a Sandwell Councillor, boozing with a pal. By an odd coincidence I met another Sadders Councillor when I left - he was at work. One was Labour, the other Conservative. Guess which was which!

What's Randhawa Trying to Hide?

I have always thought that Cllr Pam Randhawa (Labour, Greets Green & Lyng) had plenty to say for herself (I am becoming more polite in my dotage) but she has suddenly lost her tongue. No doubt she is yet another Labour prosletyiser for "openness and transparency" which is why she is concealing vital public information from voters in her ward and Sandwell folk generally. I wrote to Randhawa yesterday about her Register of Interests but she has failed to reply:

Dear Cllr Randhawa,


THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION - PRESS ENQUIRY

You have attempted to conceal information about yourself from your Register of Interests in Parts A1 and A4.

Further, you have failed to disclose at least one very important post from the public,  where many would say there is a very clear conflict of interest with your role as a Councillor. My understanding is that you have been Chair of the Sandwell Police Independent Advisory Group.

Please confirm whatever it is you are trying to hide from the public and confirm your position with the IAG.

Kindly reply by 4pm Thursday, 18th November.

It would be wholly inappropriate for a Labour Councillor to be on, let alone chairing, the local IAG noting, inter alia, the corrupt relationshiip between the dodgy Council and the Bent Blues (posts passim ad nauseum).

As Randhawa is keeping her mouth shut and concealing lawful information we shall have to continue with investigations as to what she is, very deliberately, hiding from us.

Sandwell Labour Fascism + More

Until fairly recently, bent Sandwell Labour spent most of their 47 years of dictatorship unquestioned by the cowardly folk of the benighted Borough. Happily, people are rising-up all over Sadders and fighting back against these petty tyrants. And they don't like it up 'em, Captain Mainwaring!

We saw that at the last full Council many of the pusillanimous Labour Councillors sneaked through the offices and across the bridge to the Council chamber rather than walk past the THREE peaceful demonstrations by the linkway.*


(The glass corridor shown above the apex of the linkway entrance is where the Labour cowards scurried through).

At present Labour are cynically using the appalling murder of a Tory MP to "tighten security" i.e. stop members of the public getting close to them.

But the most egregious example of their determination to stifle free speech is the proposed "amendment" to the tenancy agreements of council-house dwellers. No doubt on the advice of legal supremo "lol", Surjit Tour, this is the unlawful and discriminatory clause these Labour fascists intend to sneak in:

There is already a zero-tolerance policy against abuse and threats to staff and a whole range of legal remedies to prevent such obnoxious behaviour. But Labour are unhappy with the bad publicity they are receiving via social media and so want to, er, ban it altogether!

Note especially that this threatening legal nonsense includes criticism of "councillors" which rather gives the game away. The obvious flaw here is that this is a direct threat purely to Council tenants - therefore it is unlawful and discriminatory. The other problem is the definition - if a Council house tenant says critical things about a joke Labour Councillor like Peter "Zorro" Hughes, is that within their absurd "definition" even if the tenant is commenting on something that is nothing whatsoever to do with their tenancy?

Surjit Tour was directly involved in the conspiracy surrounding McNally's legal case which cost the taxpayer over £100,000. Tour (with the now sacked Stevens and Cllr Maria Crompton) unlawfully used taxpayers' money to fund McNally's disastrous claim which he and at least three other Sandwell solicitors, Price, Lynch and Maher-Smith, tried to frame in terms of "harassment". A High Court judge stated that there was no "harassment" and yet here Tour is using the exact same word again to stop local council house residents ONLY criticising the Council and Councillors about ANYTHING! They are not getting the message are they readers?

I will shortly be talking to some of the housing charities to ask if we can form a legal fighting fund to stop this nonsense and, if Labour force it through via the likes of Cllr Bostan, that we can provide assistance to any tenant who faces misguided legal action. (Any lawyers or charity workers who can help with this - please get in touch. Contact details below.)

McNally Attacks Tories - Again!

Lisa McNally, the Director of Public Health at bent Sandwell Labour Council, earns over £105k per annum (plus gold-plated  pension) and is specifically in a politically-restricted post. But, seemingly, she can't resist having a go at local Conservatives.

Readers will remember that last year, she threatened Nicola Richards, the MP for WBE, with legal action. Incredibly, The Skidder is now hearing that she made a formal standards complaint against one of the growing band of Tory Councillors for having the temerity to question why the taxpayer is on the hook for her legal bill of more than £100k!

Surjit Tour (the Monitoring Officer) was, as above, directly involved in the conspiracy to bring her ridiculous case against me yet has blocked the Conservative Group from asking a question about McNally's costs at the last full Council meeting - despite his clearest possible personal conflict of interest. Somehow I don't think the opposition will be going away on this one, especially now it is known that then-Labour Leader Maria Crompton (Tividale) sanctioned the absurd litigation but is now too cowardly to disclose the papers relating to her costly and disastrous decision!


Rajbir "The Puppet" Singh - the race is on!

Since May, bent Labour have had opposition on their corrupt Council. A weird manifestation of their reaction to this is that new Leader, the Boy Blunder, Rajbir Singh, keeps popping up all over the place for photo opportunities. He is like Captain Scott racing to be first at the South Pole but Amundsen, in the form of Tory Group Leader, David Fisher, keeps beating him to it. 

On 12th October I alerted Cllr Fisher to the concerns of local residents about a proposed House of Multiple Occupation in Singh's own ward. Cllr Fisher contacted residents on the following day, the 13th. Twitter describes Singh getting around to telephoning local residents on the 21st. And Singh proudly showed himself with locals on the 23rd - but after Cllr Fisher had already visited!

This looks like being one to watch in the coming months! And after 47 years of failure, Labour are finally having to do some work!

Self-described "thief" joins Express and Star

I recently wrote about the vile mysogynistic writing of Sandwell Labour puppet and propagandist, Adam Smith. You can access the post via this link but please heed the specific warning that the post contains disgusting material of a most unpleasant nature. This is NOT suitable for the easily-shocked or for under-18's:

http://thesandwellskidder.blogspot.com/2021/08/the-misogyny-of-adam-smith-journalist.html

Smith was/is a mouthpiece for the following local Labour former and current "politicians" (and others): Mick Davies, Tom "Lazy Tom" Watson, Simon Hackett, Liam Preece, Kerry Carmichael and, of course, the infamous masturbator, John Tipper. His famous "exclusives" for the, er, Halesowen News, were direct leaks that his pals wanted in the public domain for their own political purposes.

Since this "award-winning journalist" left the HN, he had a spell in London which didn't last long and some sort of position on the mighty "Erdington Local". Whilst in London he received a visitor from Sandwell. He described to that person how he had worked out the times when the security man at a branch of a well-known local store took his breaks and then went in and stole goods. I am not saying this is true since, as stated before, it is difficult to know where Smith's constant bragging begins and ends. He might just have been bullsh*tting but that is the story he told. The visitor also stated, however, that when they went into a tube station he was progressing through the ticket barrier and Smith literally leapt onto his back and clung on to avoid paying the fare!

In my recent post I quoted Smith's own words (the asterisk was missing from the original):

"I'm not a journalist. Was gonna go to Glasgow to be one again but the Mrs wants me to stay in Brum and, as u know, no f*cker will employ me in this town."

Happily the editors of the Wolvo C*ck-Suckers are not so squeamish as their Brum counterparts since they have now employed Smith as, I sh*t ye not, a "Senior Reporter".

Besides being very, very, "brave" of the E&S, this is also another aspect of the mystery why they constantly rim bent Sandwell Labour. They know from a picture posted in the public domain (and much else) that Smith has worked specifically for the Labour Party at elections:

Curiously they also know that, even very recently, he openly and very publicly lied about the video his mate Tipper took of himself masturbating (using a Sandwell Council-owned phone). He very deliberately defamed a former Councillor when, as he very well knows, there are a number of witnesses who saw the video:

"The phone story was a Mahboob smear hence no actual journalist would touch it with a barge pole."

Incidentally, I was the only journalist who did publish this and Tipper phoned saying he would sue me if I didn't remove the story. Having obtained evidence from others pre-publication, I gave him the famous Private Eye magazine response to such threats - the second word being "off". Tipper didn't sue.

No surprise given their track record but clearly the Wolvo C-S's weren't looking for anyone politically unbiased lol.

Smith recently boasted that "if" he was a local journalist he would be "all over" Mahboob Hussain. Now that he - amazingly - is, I am not sure the E&S lawyers will be so enthusiastic given his past output!

A legal letter is also winging its way towards Smith on another matter!

Once again, one to watch this one and this should be fun!

But you can't trust The Star!

This blog has said this many times over the years. The Wolvo C'S's have constantly omitted news stories unfavourable to bent Sandwell Labour or misreported the facts (the most egregious example being that they have said FOR YEARS that Sandwell College is paying rent for The Public when it is not AND the E&S KNOW this since I sent them the relevant clause from the actual lease)!

Now here is an odd story of their constant grovelling to SMBC. The Star has very frequently referred to McNally as "Dr". Of course, she can use that formal title as she has a PhD but she is NOT a medical doctor - something she complained about me saying in the High Court even though it is, er, true. I am going over old ground a bit, but EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE - 100% - of the people I spoke to in Sadders were of the view that she IS a GMC-registered doctor before I wrote my blog on the subject. As before, and for the avoidance of doubt, one does not have to be a medical doctor to be a Director of Public Health and so she is properly qualified for her highly-paid position.

But I pointed out to The Star on 1st February, 2021 that their readers were genuinely confused. They THOUGHT she was a medical doctor when The C-S's constantly referred to her as "Dr Lisa McNally". I questioned whether this was appropriate and sensible in the middle of a global pandemic, and when McNally was openly challenging the opinions of highly-qualified medics. In one article alone, she was referred to as "Dr" no less than 5 times. In my email of 1st February, 2021 I very specifically stated that she has a PhD and is entitled to use the term "Dr". The question - as we had to eventually thrash out in the High Court - was whether or not I was able, as a journalist, to report on her qualifications and comment that she is not,in fact, a medic.

McNally and her co-conspirators, Crompton, Stevens and Tour, alleged that this was "harassment"! She told the High Court:

"On 21st February, 2021 I had an interview with an Express and Star reporter about vaccination. [The E&S will not say who the reporter is, but it is believed to be Jamie Brassington who no longer works for them.] At the end he said he needed to raise something difficult, which in summary was that they received a complaint from Julian Saunders about me being referred to as 'Dr'... I found this extremely upsetting."

If we unpick this a bit, this was some 20 days after my email to the Editor. No response had been received and The Star continued to call McNally "Dr" in the interim. They then, according to McNally, got a junior reporter to raise this with her which, for some bizarre reason, "he" found personally difficult even though the full facts had been clearly shown on this blog. Quite why McNally found this "extremely upsetting" was never stated.

Given her allegation that the E&S reporter had named me to her about this matter even though the information was publicly available, I wrote again to the C-S's asking what actually happened. Clearly someone is lying since this was the response from one Mark Drew, the "Group Deputy Editor":

"Having spoken to the reporter involved, your name was not divulged to Ms McNally or any member of her team when we contacted her for a response to your initial email. The council has told us in response to your query that she is referred to as Doctor because she has a doctorate."

So there we have it. A bizarre response denying that the reporter named me to McNally as she alleges but unspecified contact between The Star and their pals at bent Sandwell Council (and as above, I had stated in this blog and in my email to them that she DOES hold a doctorate!) Despite a follow-up email, Drew did not attempt to answer the point that E&S readers, who pay his wages, were confused about the terminology used and that many (all) were indeed mislead into believing that McNally is a medic. But then, perhaps Drew and Co don't care what mere readers think?

All a bit rum eh readers?

Stll no apology from The Mayor

I also wrote recently about the appalling behaviour of the Mayor of Sadders, Labour's Mushtaq Hussain at the last full Council. I invited him to publicly apologise but I can't trace a response. I now call formally for the Deputy Mayor to take the Chair at the next Council meeting in December.

Incidentally, local WBW MP Shaun Bailey was present to witness the disgraceful spectacle and his letter to the Mayor is shown following the legal notice below. I am not aware of Shaun having received a reply as yet either.

Readers will know that The Skidder takes the view that the parochial Enoch & Eli-type nonsense actually holds the Black Country back, but there is a great clip on Shaun's Facebook page where he upbraids some apparatchik for lumping the Black Country in as an appendage of Brum! It's worth a watch just to see the guy squirming:

https://www.facebook.com/ShaunBaileyMP/videos/342768710948990

Levelling-up Fund

Many "left-behind" areas were celebrating the receipt of money from the Government's "levelling-up fund" recently and folk in Sandwell were mystified why their sh*thole area had not qualified. The answer is simple: bent Labour didn't bother to apply!

Nicola Richards MP was furious and stated on social media that she had written to then "Leader" Maria Crompton sometime ago reminding Labour to get bids in but the "socialists" obviously feel that you are rich enough in Sadders since they ignored her!

And finally - URGENT - BRANDHALL CONSULTATION

Labour's determination to destroy most of the green space left in Sandwell continues and their utter cynicism on green issues is laid bare by the plan to destroy the Brandhall site and build a, wait for it, wait for it, "village" there.

There is a consultation document out (for what that is worth given that the comrades have already decided to destroy the green space) but it is still important for locals and all Sandwell residents who care about saving the shrinking green areas to complete the exercise. Here is a link:

https://www.sandwell.gov.uk/brandhall

The fake consultation (look what they did to Londonderry Fields if you think this is for real) runs until 28th November but, who knows, there may be a legal challenge to this vandalism and there will certainly be planning objections  - so make your views known NOW!

The Save Brandhall Green Space campaign will also be out in force on Tuesday 16th November from 4.30pm at Brandhall Library, Tame Road. There are in fact 2 sessions at the Library that day about the destruction - noon until 3.30pm amd then 4.30pm until 8.00pm. Do go along and make your views known! And the Group will be happy to have new members on board.

* In a recent post I described how Labour Cllr Ellen Fenton (Bristnall) was one of those seen using the bridge - which was correct - but I am advised by the Save Brandhall team that she did stop and speak to their "sub-demo" on the other side of the building and I am happy to put the record straight.
