Questions received from Ms Helen Pender, Oakham
Due to political interference by Leicestershire Police I can not publish the deputations,
questions or most of the minutes because they mention a employee of the council,
even though this is a published public document.
DS McDonald accuses me in his statement of effecting their political standing nationally and within the Conservative party?
(I am sure there is a law that prevents paid council staff being political involved, rather like the one that is meant to apply to our fine police force.)
