Warning - contains strong language
On Thursday the people of Sandwell will have the opportunity to destroy the corrupt local Labour Party which has f*cked them up the derriere for 49 years. But, based on the Sandwell Scum Counter*, we know that between 7,000 and nearly 10,000 in each of the 24 wards of the Borough either actively support Labour corruption or are complicit in maintaining the disastrous status quo.
Sandwell is the fourth poorest area in the Country after nearly half a century of Labour corruption, cronyism and incompetence. The Labour Council is so bad that the Government has had to step in and place the benighted Borough into "special measures" - at a colossal cost to taxpayers. The Counter shows, however, that thousands of local scum have no self-respect, or desire to improve the lot of their families. They are simply too thick and/or lazy to spend a few minutes to vote.
Labour have jacked-up Council rents and charges, hit residents with maximum Council Tax increases, cost people around two million for the Government Commissioners, destroyed green spaces, squandered multi-millions on probably the most expensive Leisure Centre in Britain, lost £22m on a single West Brom building, and whacked folk with a new green bin tax. All this on top of corruption, cronyism and incompetence. Vote Labour Sh*t - Eat Labour Sh*t!
Concealment of Addresses
The whole point of local "democracy" is that it is, er, local. Thus Councillors are expected to either live in the Borough or work in Sadders. Of course, this blog exposed that a number of Labour Councillors have moved out of the ghastly poverty ghetto as soon as possible rather than have to rub shoulders with local scum. Only in the last few days, a number of Labour campaign images feature the infamous user of antisemitic tropes on social media, Labour's Laura "F*ck the Lamprey" Rollins, another one who wouldn't dream of living in her awful West Brom ward.
It is absolutely shocking that 23 out of 24 Conservative candidates and 20 out of 24 Labour ones have deliberately chosen to conceal their addresses from local voters! Why? Do they live elsewhere or are they ashamed to reside in such a sh*thole?
(For the record - 8 out of 13 Lib Dems have deliberately chosen to conceal their addresses. The Greens have done rather better with only 3 out of 16 candidates hiding themselves from public view. Of the other parties/lndependents, 12 of the 18 candidates have hidden their addresses.)
Incidentally, despite death threats, threats of extreme violence, appalling abuse and arson threats, MY address is on the bottom of every blog post.
Naseem Khan
Regular readers will know that this scumbag was an employee of bent Sandwell Council and a close associate of deeply corrupt liar, Labour Cllr Simon Hackett, and other comrades like Pam Randhawa - the Chair of Sandwell Police's so-called "Independent" Advisory Group. Here's police adviser Randhawa (right) out with her bent pal Khan:
Khan was running at least four businesses whilst managing to hold down his onerous taxpayer-funded day job (lol!) Sandwell Council have recently confirmed that he did not declare any of these businesses to the Council (as he should have done) and clearly his Labour Cllr pals did not encourage him to do so.
Recently he was convicted of fraud. It is said that his pals were angling to get him a Council seat before his conviction but, in their bent Sandwell crony-style, Labour put out a leaflet showing his daughter as the candidate in Rowley:
Unfortunately Labour had seemingly overlooked the fact that Khan's daughter was not 18 at the relevant nomination date, and she had to be dropped. But corrupt Labour are so desperate to get a member of the fraudster's family on the Council they then selected his son for Rowley ward (and Randhawa has been out campaigning for him). There is no evidence that he has been guilty of any wrongdoing but the suspicion is being widely aired that he is a puppet for his bent father. Nice!
The Ethnic Vote
Over the past few years I have heard much criticism from locals about the alleged block voting of the so-called "ethnic" communities of Sandwell i.e. British citizens. Such moaning (and worse) has come entirely from white people. Subject to a couple of caveats set out below, I think these comments are misguided. Some of the "ethnic groups" are adept at engaging in the political process and that, in my view, is to be applauded. It is the unhealthy and unintelligent white "indigenous" population who are too shallow and spineless to stand up for their own local interests. It is that feckless and mindless herd that deserve opprobrium and who will be f*cked-over once again come Friday due to their own indolence and indifference.
Two "groups" deserve mention. The local Sikh community is a model of community interaction (for example, they brilliantly provide charity across ALL communities), and this has manifested itself in the Borough's politics. The self-appointed political leader of local Sikhism, Gurinder Josan, is on Labour's National Executive Committee and has his fingers in many local pies. He has been the willing lapdog of local grotesques, Tom "Twatson" Watson and the greasy bookies' runner, John Spellar - notably in their campaign to destroy Mahboob Hussain. Labour has used Council officers for "voting drives" in the Gurdwaras, but this community is generally more "switched-on" politically anyway, and will continue to thrive on the Council for the foreseeable future. Which is generally good. And members of the Sikh community are also joining and representing the Conservatives too, although not with so much success in Sadders as yet.
The Muslim community is more politically disparate than their Sikh counterparts but a major source of Labour votes nonetheless. Certain individuals seem to be able to influence local communities - and not always for the best.
We saw, for example, that at the last general election Tividale Mosque directly threatened to have its worshippers vote against Labour if local Councillors did not sell it some land in Gate Street. Incidentally, a leading figure in that scandal was Basharat Khan (Skidders passim). Bash was suspended by Labour for vile antisemitic social media posts (exclusively disclosed on this blog), but is now being pictured out on the campaign trail with local Conservatives. (Quite what Nicola Richards thinks about that we don't yet know but I am sure she won't be the only one to be concerned.)
The first issue - if it be such - with these "groups" is a perceived lack of transparency. Politically, in Sandwell Sikhism, what happens in the Gurdwara stays in the Gurdwara. For example, the "top brass" in the Sikh community know the full story about the sudden resignation of the former Labour "leader", Rajbir "The Boy Blunder" Singh, but they are not letting on what actually brought about his moonlight flit. Further, for example, Gurinder Josan, and his handmaiden Labour Councillor Pam Randhawa, have tried to hijack Sandwell Police's supposedly "Independent Advisory Group" whilst keeping their activities secret from the wider community (more on this soon).
The second issue is more contentious, not least because what is being done is perfectly legal. This relates to the influence of certain individuals on how sections of the community vote. It is clear that drug barons in the west of the Borough have been working hard this year to have certain Labour candidates elected. Also, the malign presence of "Billa" - disgraced former Labour Councillor Mohammed Yaseen Hussain aka "the Tipton Tosser" - has been much in evidence in Labour campaign pictures (which implies that his Party suspension has been lifted?)
There were extraordinary scenes in Tipton Green last year. The excellent independent candidate, Richard Jeffcoat, was polling well during the day and in the evening the local Muslim community organised an emergency transport of a large number of voters - to one polling station in particular. This swayed the vote and Labour's Abid "The Invisible Man" Hussain was duly elected.
Quite frankly I don't have a problem with this save that Party machines will always be able to wield more resources than an individual like Richard. We all have a right to vote and should use it. Anything that ANY local communities do to get folk to vote is good in my book. The fact is, as above, that the "indigenous" white communities are too anti-social to organise themselves to even vote, let alone organise transport within local areas. And in Tipton Green many are probably too pissed or drugged-up to be let loose behind the wheel of a car anyway.
The big question, of course, is why any communities or individuals in Sandwell continue to vote for Labour corruption? Why do people vote for extraordinarily thick people like Jackie "Jac of No Trades" Taylor or an appalling corrupt liar like Syeda Khatun? Why do people sh*t themselves in this way.?Answers on a postcard please!
The good news is that the latest census shows that the herd of Sandwell white ignorami is gradually being culled. Whereas locals self-describing as "White" constituted 69.9 of Sadders in 2011 this shrunk to 57.2% in the latest - 2021 - count. Hopefully that means an increase in communities willing to engage in local democracy. Politicians should heed the message and galvanise ALL voters rather than "pigeon-holing" what they perceive as "groups".
Elections 2023
The list of all candidates is available on the Council website via this link:
https://www.sandwell.gov.uk/elections2023
The same link provides details of the new voted ID requirements. It will be interesting to see how that works - particularly if there is a repeat of the Tipton Green "late influx" or similar. Candidates will need to monitor the situation carefully. Lest we forget, last year there was a brazen attempt at the actual Count in corrupt Sandwell to rig the result in Tividale - right under our noses!
I will make a couple of general points and then mention the specific wards.
The Conservatives were - so it is rumoured - struggling to find suitable candidates having decided to contest all the Borough's seats. As usual they have then failed to support candidates in some wards adequately or at all. An angry Abbey voter stated on social media that she had not even received a leaflet from the Tories. There are particularly bizarre rumours concerning their "campaign " in Rowley (and I am looking into that).
The Lib Dems have a couple of aces in the pack this year. Generally they spend all year rimming corrupt Labour - for reasons no-one locally understands - but they are fielding Clive Heywood and Cllr Richard Jones this time around. Clive is a great guy who has been a leading light in the campaign to save Brandhall Green Space (and other green spaces Labour are seeking to destroy like Lion Farm Fields). Richard has defected from bent Labour. He is not without political sin, but after all the recent horrors he has been an amazingly good Mayor of Sandwell this year. I have had a couple of run-ins with him at Council meetings but, generally speaking, he has chaired the meetings efficiently and with wit and grace.
The Wards
Abbey - they may be the vilest people in Sandwell but inhabitants of the "socialist paradise" that is sh*thole Bearwood love Labour corruption and are guaranteed to vote to be shafted again. The Labour candidatem so it is said, is a Watson appointee (as his malign presence still lingers around Sandwell like a bad smell). Recently she was a Labour Councillor in Gedling, Nottinghamshire, but now claims to be resident in Sandwell (although her and her partner - see below -have concealed their address). Last year she was thrust into the Charlemont and Grove Vale contest, but Charley folk have got wise to bent Labour and she suffered a humiliating defeat. Labour never give up with failed candidates and have given her the ultra-safe Abbey seat where they know Bearwood Berghaus-bolshies are stupid enough to do their bidding.
It will be interesting to see what vile Abbey Councillor Bob "Seig Heil" Piper has to say about his Nottinghamshire comrade as he is abusive to anyone - including myself - he deems to be overweight. I am indebted again to Sandwell Corruption for reminding us all of just some Piper's comments on those he perceives to be obese:
Blackheath - Ought to be a Tory target but ...
Bristnall - Clive Heywood is the obvious choice to beat corrupt Labour here. As above, local candidate Clive has been a stalwart of the Save Brandhall Green Space campaign (and is against the destruction of nearby Lion Farm Fields by Labour). I know him personally and he's a good 'un.
Charlemont and Grove Vale - Charley residents have been kicking out useless Labour Councillors. This time around they have the opportunity to get rid of the absolutely useless Elizabeth Giles. She is of course, one of four of the retarded Giles family with their snouts in the Council trough. Charley can deliver a blow to the Giles Greed Machine on Thursday and correct the error they made in electing Giles in the first place.
Cradley Heath & Old Hill - In many blogs I have informed the people of Sandwell about the notorious masturbator, John Tipper. This tosser (literally) was a Labour Councillor before, and borrowed a taxpayer-owned phone to film himself w*nking. He forgot to delete it when he gave the phone back. This spineless prat has then got his mate, p*sshead perv Adam Smith** of the Express and Star "newspaper" to lie for him about this. Labour tried to get this weirdo back on the gravy train a couple of years ago, but the good folk of Old Warley duly rejected Sp*nk Brother 3. If the people of CH & OH vote Tipper it is they who will be forever identified as w*nkers. (Oh, and by the way, when Tipper wasn't spanking the monkey he had his hand in the disastrous and dangerous Blackheath Christmas Lights fiasco following a sweetheart "deal" with bent Labour ***! Oh yes, and he's also a "close friend" of the Carmichael family ...)
Friar Park this north Sandwell sh*thole should be a Tory target but ...
Great Barr with Yew Tree - currently the holder of "The Sh*ttiest Ward in Sandwell" title. The morons in this area last year voted for a useless criminal as their Labour Councillor. This is supposed to be a Tory target but local scum are highly likely to soil themselves again. Time and time again we have seen the rampant nepotism and cronyism of bent Sandwell Labour and here we go again. The Labour candidate, Kay Allcock, is the wife of ineffective Labour Cllr Keith Allcock.
Great Bridge - ALL three candidates in this ward have concealed their addresses but then who would want to live in this Labour hellhole?
Greets Green and Lyng - these are the tw*ts who voted in a Walsall resident rather than a Sandwell one, and so you can see that they are more dimwitted than most in the Borough. And at least they have the chance to vote for someone as thick as themselves - Labour hopeless Jackie "Jac of No Trades" Taylor. These w*nkers deserve everything they don't get from corrupt Labour.
Hateley Heath - another ward where all three candidates are concealing their addresses but then who wants to live in Hateful Heath? Labour are expected local morons to re-elect Kay Millar who has been an absolutely useless Councillor. Interestingly, not only is she concealing her address (believed to be in Smethwick) for this election but she is also concealing it from us all in her Register of Interests. Why? What has she got to hide? If you want to smear yourself with excrement HH - then "vote Millar".
Langley - yet another ward where ALL three candidates have concealed their addresses. On the face of it the Conservatives have a lively candidate. But there are questions. The Tories have known full well that Labour have been busy covertly trying to push through the fraudulent deal to destroy Lion Farm Fields but I am not aware that they have asked a single question in two years about what is actually going on. Fair play, the Conservative councillors have been unanimous in their opposition to concreting over the Fields - and perhaps they have been doing stuff behind the scenes - but they have said sod all publicly. However, the Labour Candidate is the mother of the Lying Labour Leader Kerrie "Dim Kez Carmichael. Within seconds of becoming Labour "leader" she publicly lied twice to a full Council meeting - here's the first blatant whopper:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ePS6vW3hDQ
Dim Kez's husband works for Sandwell Council as well as doing some side hussles to bring in extra loot Chez Carmichael. Now Labour have secured a possible seat aboard the gravy train for her mother, Gill Tromans. I know nothing about Tromans save that if she attempted to bring her daughter up to tell the truth, she singularly failed.
NOTE ESPECIALLY - Dim Kez was a member of the most corrupt Labour Cabinet in Sandwell's history (so far) and has been fully supportive of the bent Labour plan to destroy Lion Farm Fields. A Labour vote IS A CERTAIN VOTE TO SUPPORT LABOUR'S BENT DEAL TO DESTROY THE FIELDS. (Tivi residents also please note). Stop this fraud, and destruction of green space on Thursday!
Bizarrely there is NO Green Party candidate in this ward where the desecration of a large green space is the major issue.
Newton - after 49 years of Labour Newton is a nasty. nondescript, ward. Vote Labour if you want to keep it that way.
Old Warley - the most interesting contest on Thursday. All four candidates have chosen to conceal their addresses. The Tories have a lively candidate, Paul Smith, who, at least, admits to "living in Birmingham". As above, Labour defector Rich Jones is up for the Lib Dems. Anyone voting Labour in this ward needs medical help, but there is a danger that the Tories and Lib Dems will split the anti-Labour vote and let their candidate in. Old Warley needs to go out and vote against Labour in large numbers!
Oldbury - your chance to dethrone an existing Labour Councillor.
Princes End - formerly "The Shittiest Ward in Sandwell" title-holder but the folk here, as in Charley ward, have seen that bent Labour have failed dismally over the last 49 years. Surely a target seat for Conservative candidate, Justyna Kordala?
Rowley - see above re Naseem Khan. Apart from the bizarre rumours about the Tory campaign there is nothing further to add save that the Lib Dems are fielding the hate-filled and appalling social media troll, Wikas Khan, as their candidate!!!!
Smethwick - In Labour crony style they have put the partner of Hemingway, Luke John Davies, into this rock-solid Labour sh*thole. That's two snouts in the trough for these outsiders who have "blown in" from Nottinghamshire. Like his partner in Abbey ward he has concealed his address but claims to reside in Sandwell.
Soho and Vic & St Pauls wards - both rock-solid Labour. Both absolute crap holes but the morons who live in these places obviously like it that way and want more of the same. All three candidates in St Paul's have refused to provide their addresses.
Tipton Green - who on earth would vote for a lying scumbag like Syeda Khatun (Skidders passim and see legal notice below)? This liar was sacked from the Labour Deputy Leadership when her corrupt lies in the Simon Hackett scandal were exposed. Her deceit - with that of the likes of Eling and Hackett himself - has cost us taxpayers hundreds of thousands of pounds.
Khatun has successfully amassed considerable wealth from taxpayers supporting her various "organisations". She lauds it over the pathetic poor people of Tipton from her house with gated compound (a la Billa). She was also the sh*t who made a false and malicious allegation which caused The Skidder and Darryl Magher to be unlawfully barred from a public Council meeting. As if that wasn't bad enough, she is such a snivelling coward she would not admit that she was the liar and she gained the support of a number of very stupid Labour Councillors to "protect" her identity - including current leader [sic] Dim Kez herself. This led to a High Court action against the Council and a large number of Labour Councillors which resulted in the bent Borough issuing a grovelling apology.
If you are stupid enough in Tipton Green to vote for this scum you really do deserve to be sh*t upon. And your wish will be fulfilled - again!
As it is, the ward has a real alternative in the excellent Independent candidate, Richard Jeffcoat (pictured below). Richard has stood before, but with such a poisonous Labour candidate as Khatun, surely locals will see sense and vote him in this time? He is local and passionate about Tipton. Not only has he been working with the community to make Tipton a better place, but he will be a very strong anti-corruption candidate. He is also intelligent - which the vast majority of bent Labour Councillors are not. He will not sit on his hands but will be asking all the right questions whilst fighting hard to make sure more resources are diverted Tipton's way.
Unfortunately, The Tories are anxious to lose this seat and to see corrupt liar Khatun get re-elected. They refused to stand down and get behind Richard as an anti-corruption candidate - which was probably the worst of their poor recent decisions. Richard is so proud to live in Tipton and, of course, he has disclosed his address whereas the Tory has concealed his.
IF YOU WANT TO SEE CORRUPT LIAR SYEDA KHATUN FINALLY KICKED OFF THE COUNCIL DO NOT VOTE TORY IN TIPTON GREEN - VOTE RICHARD JEFFCOAT.
Tividale - After Labour tried to rig the Tivi Count last year, Tory Councillor Amrita Dunn has been a breath of fresh air in the ward. Lion Farm Fields are on the edge of Tivi but are an issue for locals who will be severely affected by the loss of green space and the horrendous traffic issues that will ensue if Labour force through their fraudulent deal. Remember that a Labour vote here is a specific vote for their bent plan to destroy the Fields.
Wednesbury North and Wednesbury South wards - I was up in Wednesbury the other day. Christ, what an absolute dump after 49 years of Labour domination! But that's all that local morons deserve when they vote for pure Labour poison like Costigan, Peter Hughes, Luke Giles, Chambers, Chidley etc.
These ought to be two Tory target wards but I am hearing that campaigning has been between minimal and non-existent? Why, when Labour have f*cked local people over so often? Bescot, Goldicroft, the attempt to rig the absurd BID scheme, Sahotaville etc. etc.
The only good news is the departure of poisonous liar, "Inane" Elaine Costigan.
Incidentally, the Labour Councillors were putting-up lots of pictures of them posing at the new market - another spectacular and misguided waste of public money. This was the reality on Saturday in your Labour poverty ghetto Wednesbury:
West Brom Central - social media commentators say this is another ward with no Tory leaflets of campaigning. Why put up candidates in seats that are not then fought?
DON'T FORGET YOUR VOTER ID FOLKS. GET OUT AND BRING POSITIVE CHANGE TO SANDWELL!
