Can you fill the Vacancy on Oakham Town Council?

Oakham Town Council has one current vacancy. 

Possible two by the end of the depending the outcome of my tribunal.

If you are interested in applying to be co-opted here are few words of caution.

You must fully support the Old Guards wishes.
Including the Clerk Richard White and his old mates made up of ex Town Councillors
they know who they are so I don't need to name them.

Do you know how much he is paid? he constantly leaves work early  yes the tax payer pays for that.
The Chair Councillor Lucas said at public staffing committee meeting "I have told him he is not indispensable"
Of course she can't get rid of him because he plays along with the old guard but I guess she has to be seen noting there is an issue.

You should attend a meeting and see how the likes of ex Councillor Kelly just walk into his office at the end of the meeting. totally ignoring the dictatorial rules of access laid down in writing by the Chair Councillor Joyce Lucas* Is he asked to leave? the answer is no.

You must also worship Conservative (bullies) Leader Roger Begy and Deputy Leader Terry King and Chief Executive Helen Briggs up at Rutland County Council.

Roger thinks its fine to publicly call me a idiot. He talks about voter apathy no wonder there is apathy when people behave like they do.

We have a town council made up of no one person elected by the people of Oakham and Terry King Conservative had the cheek to write to me and  blame me for that!

If your not prepared to sit and agree with all they want then be prepared to be insulted, threatened, intimidated and god help you if you just happen to be gay.

Over the last two years I have received threatening communications, many of those vanished when I handed that into Oakham Police Station. Strangely it no no longer vanishes since Inspector Johnny Monks departed to Loughborough.

The comment received below is a mild example of what one should expect if you dare to speak out for the local tax payer.

Of course this no longer offends me as much as it used to but, I don't see why anyone should have to tolerate this kind of cowardly behaviour?




Anonymous said...martin i have a few choice comments for you and not a single one of them is nice but hey ho im really not worried if i offend you in fact thats my intention. it seems to me all you want to do is insert yourself and your opinions into places where they are not needed or required you are nothing more than a sour old queen with out dated opinions, so at this point my first and politest reccomendation is do the residents of rutland a huge favour and leave you obviously dont like being here so find somewhere more suitable to reside maybe the bottom of the mariana trench. secondly it has been brought to my attention that you refuse to use job centres in stamford and melton because you dont like the place or the staff but have your fair to Leicester paid to you, well guess what buddy your not superior to everyone else you are just another person who has failed. reading that Rutland county council have been instructed to ignore you is such a good thing maybe now you will stop wasting there time with your pointless and unhelpful nonsense
so lastly here is my summary:
GET A REAL JOB, STOP BEING A DRAIN ON THE LOCAL AND NATIONAL ECONOMY, AND FINALY REMOVE YOU HEAD FROM YOUR DIRTIEST OROFICE AND REALISE NOBODY GIVES A DAMN ABOUT YOU AND YOUR OPINIONS........

I may not be a conventional Councillor but I will never understand the behaviour of these cowards. They must have a lot to hide because surely one little person like me would not been seen as such a threat to the local establishment?

They are also appear blind to how their behaviour looks to the outside world I pity them....
