Dear Councillor Brookes,
Many thanks for your recent email response to my email of 12 July 2011.
Of course, you are correct; posting a comment on your blog from within the EDI system was certainly an incorrect usage of the EDI IT systems. EDI systems are a work tool and not a tool to engage local councillors or to offer opinion on a councillor’s political strategy. It was naive of me to have utilised the company system to post this comment and for that I apologise for confusing the issue which led to your assumption of EDI involvement. For the avoidance of doubt I confirm EDI had nothing to do with the comment I posted to your blog at 7.45am, 7 July 2011, , nor does EDI have any business nor professional interest in local politics, which includes Oakham Town Council/Rutland County Council.
The result of my errant usage of the company’s IT system has been investigated by senior management, an apology offered and a line has since been drawn under the matter. I would therefore like to confirm, once again, that the comment I posted on your blog at 7.45am, 7 July 2011 was nothing to do with EDI and was solely my own opinion.
As this matter is solely between you and me I respectfully ask that you remove references to EDI plc from your blog. Of course, I do not expect or request that you remove any reference to me. I believe that you have every right to make reference to my comments and indeed myself.
To address your concerns I am more than happy to meet you, in person, should you wish to discuss the comment I uploaded to your blog and my personal views on local political strategy
Best Regards
Adam Robinson
