Did Kerrie Carmichael Lie Within Minutes of Becoming Sandwell Leader?

Plenty of big stories are bubbling under at Skidder HQ, but here's a selection of tasty morsels to keep you going:

Did Dim Kez Lie Within Minutes of her Coronation?

I am sorry to start this post by referring to a recent one, but the importance of a comment of the new Labour "Leader", Kerrie Carmichael at bent Labour Sandwell Council, within minutes of her taking the reins, warrants it.

In my 4th December post I informed readers that I had sent this email to Dim Kez on 30th November:

Dear Cllr Carmichael,

THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION - PRESS ENQUIRY

I have just been copied into an email to all Councillors concerning the Cox Review. I have also been informed, rightly or wrongly, that you told the Labour Group last night that the Cox Review will never be published.

Do you agree that you made those comments?

If yes, is this matter not still within the remit of the Audit Committee? What is your legal power to intervene at this stage?

And why do you personally wish to prevent the public from seeing a Review which shows bias, incompetence and racism?

If you did not say that you will suppress the Review what in the current process and it's timescale for its release?

The Haranguing Hamster did not see fit to respond to this email and inform Skidder readers of the true position.

But within minutes (literally) of her becoming "Leader", Dim Kez stated at full Council (46 minutes into the video tape), "I don't know what the Cox Report is. I haven't read it". One must infer from this that she was specifically denying - in a full, public, Council meeting - that she did NOT make the comments attributed to her at the Labour Group.

But she now also appears to be claiming that she did not read my above email either since, if she had, she would clearly have known of the Cox Review. But, in any event, she is straining the credulity of the people of Sandwell by claiming that she does not know what the Cox Review is and so I have written to her again asking her to explain the position to you, dear readers! Watch this space.

STOP PRESS * STOP PRESS * STOP PRESS!

I was just about to publish this post when news came in that, far from Carmichael not knowing about the Cox Review as she claimed to a full Council meeting within MINUTES of becoming Leader, she had been sent The Cox Review and accompanying Counsel's Opinion as long ago as 28th September, 2021 at 10.28pm:


AND - WAIT FOR IT, WAIT FOR IT - 29th September, 2021, 1st October, 2021, 8th Octover, 2021, 23rd October, 2021, 6th November, 2021, 20th November, 2021 and 30th November, 2021.

This is now a very serious matter and appropriate action WILL be taken!

And on the same subject:

Like Crompton, Carmichael gives the impression of being thick. Crompton was told what to do by Stevens and Tour and just did it without thought - witness the McNally fiasco where the cowardly Crompton is trying to conceal her involvement in the conspiracy which has cost Sandwell taxpayers over £100,000.


I said in a recent post before Carmichael became leader [sic] that we would have some fun with her as she appears to be incapable - like most Labour people (subject to the below) - of independent thought. And she did not disappoint with her robotic display within minutes of her coronation (incidentally, greeted with whoops of delight from the Labour benches!)

Former Leader, "Red" Yvonne Davies Davies asked why bent Labour were trying to bury the Cox Review and Dim Kez immediately went into autopilot as surely as if Tour's hand were up her arse operating her mouth (which, for the benefit of the lawyers, in reality, it wasn't). Her eyes dropped to a piece of paper as she unthinkingly read from a pre-prepared statement:

"The Council cannot release the Report (i.e. The Cox Review) as it contains personal information. It would open us (i.e. the Council) up to legal action."

This b*llocks has been trotted out by Sandwell Council's legal team, headed by Tour and Price, over and over again. Stop the public seeing documents due to supposed - and spurious - "data protection" defences.

Funnily enough, when ex-Cllr Mahboob Hussain sought to prevent the publication of the Wragge Report HE argued that it should not be released for data protection reasons. Bent Labour then spent huge sums of your money getting an Opinion from a QC, James Goudie (husband of a Labour Peer), which said, in terms, that the "data controller" (SMBC) legitimately obtained the data for a proper purpose and the disclosure was desirable in the public interest. The arguments advanced for data protection of behalf of Mahboob Hussain were also given short shrift in the High Court by Mr Justice Green. 

(Incidentally, we know that a substantial amount of the cause of the downfall of Hussain was down to Eling and Britton and I am told that the Cox Review is damning about what went on at the time. This is partly why the Audit Committee were so anxious to conceal it from ex-Cllr Hussain and the rest of the world. It seems that the wider Labour Group also now also wish to hide the truth - again!)

John Tew - "Independent Person"

Since the Hackett standards scandal (more anon) bent Sandwell Labour have colluded with officers within the corrupt paid service to subvert the "standards procedures" i.e the mechanism for disciplining the naughty boys and girls. The Monitoring Officer claims he has been backed to the hilt whilst exonerating a whole list of Labour Councillors by "the independent person".

These are three individuals who are supposed to be, well, independent in the process and see everything is above board. Astonishingly, John Tew is one of the three.

I am not saying that Tew is himself corrupt but he certainly is not independent. He was running the Governors of Sandwell College when they f*cked the Council for millions of pounds in the Public scandal. I have put evidence on this blog where he was party to top secret dealings in the disastrous deal. Following this, he enjoyed regular (metaphorical) tongue-action around his nether regions from Jan Britton and Simon Hackett who became Governors of the sleazy College themselves! As Jim Royle would say, "Independent, my arse!"

In January, Tew will have been an "independent person" at bent Sandwell for four years, during which time, elements within the Council and the paid service have completely corrupted the standards process. Yet at full Council last week he was granted another four year stint (astonishingly with the support of Conservative Councillors too). Last Tuesday was another very black day indeed for the benighted Borough and the war against Labour corruption.

David Hallam - Thanks

This blog has written (fairly) about Eling's Rimmer-in-Chief, David Hallam, in unkind terms but he showed me a small act of kindness the other night for which I am grateful.

The Most Famous Fenton since the Dog!

Do you remember the viral video when a dog, Fenton, chased a herd of deer in Richmond Park?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GRSbr0EYYU

Sandwell Labour has a new Cllr straining at the leash - but will she be rottweiler or poodle? The jury is out but Ellen Fenton (Labour, Bristnall) is, at the moment, a breath of Glade air freshner in the stinking Sandwell Labour cesspit.

I infrequently bump into a chap in a pub who advised me - before she was elected - that Ellen is a "good" person and that she was one for me to watch as a possible rising star. She has been a doughty campaigner so far and, although I have not seen it, I am told that she played an absolute blinder at the Planning Committee the other night. More importantly, she has refused to slavishly toe the Party line like most of the pathetic sheep in the Labour Group, and has spoken out against Labour's own policy where applicable eg. in respect of the folly of destroying Brandhall green space.

The other night I suggested she was in the wrong Party given her independent streak and her undermining of the po-faced comrades. In an incredibly refreshing reply Fenton said,

"I just think I'm doing what I am supposed to do and that's to represent my community."

She opined that the Council could do with a few more like her. At the moment, one can only agree but, if history is anything to go by, her vindictive comrades will soon stifle her spirit and force her to toe the Party line. Still, it's good she is giving it a go, while she can.

Melia - Part One

The wonderful folk who campaigned so hard to stop Labour's nasty plan to close Walker Grange are not happy with me and have seemingly stopped my request for information from appearing on their Facebook page even though I supported their campaign from Day One.

At the October full Council meeting there were no less than three demos outside Oldbury Council House. A man followed Cllr Steve Melia (Labour, GBYT) to the door berating him as he had argued with an eight year-old child and told the kid he had been "brainwashed". The man, presumably the parent, was aggrieved that Melia should pick an argument with a kid.

I could be mistaken as I thought the child was with the Walker Grange crew but if not and he was with the Brandlall team then, either way, please yet in touch.

If you were the adult or saw the incident can you contact me please - 07470 624207.

Melia - Part Two - Rocky 6.5

I am sure most of you have now seen the video footage of Melia assaulting me (over 100,000 now have!):

I cannot say more about this at present for legal reasons though the attack did bring to mind a running theme of this blog - the way West Midlands Police have pandered to Sandwell Labour (posts passim ad nauseum).

Anyone who follows social media will have seen that WMP prefer to spend time indoors at endless "crime prevention meetings" or prancing around with "senior", dancing, women than fighting actual crime. The tea and biscuits are particularly welcome as the weather gets colder.

I am all for an element of community policing but there has to be a degree of deterrence too. Also on Sandwell social media is a sickening - daily - catalogue of burglaries, car thefts, attempted frauds and even dog thefts. A common cry from the victims is that Sandwell Police cannot even be bothered to come out and see them. It is a complex subject, but many think that a laissez faire attitude by the gavvers begets more - and more serious - crime down the line (no pun intended).

On the other hand, WMP have spent a small fortune and hundreds of wo/man hours harassing me since 2015 and trying to close this blog down. Laughably, they even set the "Complex Crime Unit" on me.

But when I have sought help from them, they have looked the other way and let bent Sandwell Labour do as they please - as shown by these incidents:

2014 onwards - I receive death threats, threats to burn my house down and threats of extreme violence. Sandwell Police said there was nothing they could do (!) and advised me to "dial 999" if I felt I was in danger!

2015 - Darren Cooper interviewed concerning harassment of my wife. No further action taken.

2014 - 2016 - A vicious social media trolling campaign starts by Darren Cooper, Unite the Union, the GMB Union and others. Some individuals were clearly identifiable. DS Wayne Haynes took the view that this was not just trolling but witness intimidation given the ongoing fraud investigation at the time, but was seemingly warned off by his superior [sic] officers. No action taken.

2017 - I was physically threatened in Oldbury. Police identified the likely perpetrator and arranged to interview him but dropped the matter shortly beforehand, with no satisfactory explanation.

2017 - Two WMP officers stand just feet away watching Steve Eling and his wife abuse me and threaten me with violence INSIDE an election count. They take no action.

2018 onwards - another vicious troll campaign commences against me centred around David Hosell. Police refuse to investigate again despite named individuals being identifiable.

2019 - Police charge Cllr Bob Piper (Chair of the Licensing Committee at the time) after he gave a Nazi salute and shouted "Seig Heil" at me and Darryl Magher in a busy pub! The case was mysteriously dropped the day before the first Court hearing.

2020 - Complaint that two individuals committed perjury when they lied about me at the infamous “c*cksucker” trial. Police took no action as they said the witnesses (who it was later established had colluded together) “may have made a mistake”!!!

Is it any wonder that the comrades think they can attack me with impunity and with the guaranteed  protection of the local plod?

Viva Brandhall!

We must not let Melia's violence overshadow the fact that a lovely bunch turned up before the meeting last week from the Campaign to save Brandhall green space (the former golf course). Bent Labour wish to build over yet more of the dwindlng open area of Sadders but this determined group turned up on a dirty night to make their views known (though many Labour Councillors are smeaking-in now via the back door to avoid having to see aggrieved citizens - and not just the usual pathetic cowards like Cllrs Moore and Gavan.

Even if you are not directly affected by Labour's proposed destruction please help the campaign because the likes of bullsh*tting Cllr Bostan - who hilariously describes bent Labour as being "green" - are intent in pouring concrete over most of the few green spaces left in the Borough.

And Now For Something Completely Different!

I was reading the 2022 Picture Postcard Annual (as you do) earlier and an article concerning Indian street performers (India in the pre-Partition definition). The great skill of the performers, particularly jugglers and acrobats, became known world-wide and spawned copycat acts. This part caught my eye with one of the gents photographed by a Walsall publisher, and Linga Singh (centre) giving his last performance in good old West Brom!
