Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Property Developer?

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Property Developer?

Cllr Gene Plews has never declared employment as a property developer.
So why on various on-line profile like Forces Reunited does he claim
he is a property developer?

I received a message from a resident suggesting Cllr Plews is Rutland's
very own "Walter Mitty"

Cllr Plews declares he runs a small gardening business here in Oakham
and now in Stamford. Although people people have often said he
has never actually done any gardening in the area.


Cllr Plews Declaration of Interests:

http://www.rutland.gov.uk/pdf/Plews%20-%20MASTER.pdf

(i) Any employment, office, trade, profession or vocation carried on for profit or gain
NOTE: Give a short description, including the name of your employer or the person who, or body which, appointed you to an office

I operate a small part time gardening business, covering Rutland and
Stamford (self-employed).

My main employment is a full time county councillor for Oakham South
East.

(Added 16 January 2014)
My wife works for the NHS. (Added 16 January 2014)



Watching this evenings report regarding the government's failing to support ex military personnel.

The main and most shocking part of the report was how one former soldier has to crawl up his
stairs to visit the loo. Appalling task for anyone.

Also shocking and no surprise was his comment about the charity Help for Heroes.

Cllr Plews served in Northern Ireland ( Coldstream Guards, drummer, 1977 -1980 )

something I would not have wanted to do.
His appearance in this new article helps explain a lot about him.





It concerns me what serious trouble with the police means? Cllr Plews has never been
pleasant towards me and others.

Cllr Plews has not been very honest, I wonder if  Tories kicked him out.

They fell for his story he told, he said he sold a successful security company he owned.
Although a simple check of companies house proved the published story was not accurate
because the company was dormant at the time he claimed it was sold.
The company was eventually liquidated. Online security publications do refer to Cllr Plews
and that firm based in Wigston,  he often called for the arming of security guards and
was critical of Leicestershire Police. He also suffered bottle attacks as a guard operating 
in Leicestershire something he had previously experienced serving in the Army.

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Badgering the Chief Constable, When will this Councillors Harassment Cease

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Badgering the Chief Constable, When will this Councillors Harassment Cease

Last year I published images of two Rutland County Council employees on this
site.

Since then my ex Tory Councillor has been attempting to have me arrested by Leicestershire Police.

My home CCTV does not breach any laws and does not over look any neighbouring home
unlike some in the councillors ward. One of his own friends in Woodland view has small
camera which do and are so small they are only visible at night due to the Blue LED IF.

These emails are show as an example of what most Rutland County Councillor do to serve
there community.


Recent email he sent the Chief Constable Simon Cole
Please note the quick response time not something enjoyed by the public

Dear Chief Constable Cole,

I wrote to you a while ago by email pointing out that Mr Brookes has a personal camera system placed externally on his house wall and near to the front door.

Whilst it may not be a crime to install a personal home camera system, I do question the legality of a picture posted onto his now infamous blog site of 2 senior Rutland County Council Officers (both females) who visited his house last year on Council business who's images and pictures had clearly been frozen sometime beforehand by the camera system facility and subsequent data of such images kept somewhere on site allowing him to then re-post pictures of the 2 women directly onto his blog site with accompanying wording? I believe he may have broken public data protection storage rules involving members of the public and there own personal image rights by installing such a facility for such uses, and the storage of such frozen material used for other alternate image posting purposes directly into the Public domain without the person/s permission? Your clarifications would be welcome in respect of both Public data protection rights, including national data protection storage rules and regulations, Public confidentially and privacy rights being adhered to by the operator (Mr Brookes) and by owner of the camera system, and if the law is being broken in any way? Could I please therefore also ask that as a reassurance to myself and the local community whom I also represent, that a Police visit to Mr Brookes home address is made sooner than later to check all is above board with the systems operation and usage before it reaches a wider concerned Rutland Public and audience please.

This is also a Ward concern involving many other affected members of the Public living locally who I also represent. Many thanks, Cllr Gene Plews (Oakham South East Ward)

Gene

Thanks for this. Can you please clarify what crime you are seeking to report to the police?

Alleged data protection breaches are the responsibility of the information Commissioner not the police. Your concerns may be best brought to their attention.

Even if home CCTV was covered by laws, I could argue the published image was not a CCTV
image because I took it with my personal camera pointing it at the monitor.

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Questions Leicestershire Chief Fire Officer, Video

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Questions Leicestershire Chief Fire Officer,

Cllr Plews started his questioning with a question that had previously been asked.
The questioning in general at last nights meeting was pointless and the questioning
was coming to an end so I stopped filming the councillor and went home. I probably
missed him asking the chief fire officer if he has considered arming his men and woman.

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Suggests Motion to Vote, For No Confidence in Rutland Leicestershire Police Video

Cllr Gene Plews, Rutland County Councillor, Suggests Motion to Vote, For No Confidence in Rutland Leicestershire Police Video



Cllr Plews will be raising his concerns that "Rutland has no enforcement" and he will be notifying the Chief Constable and the £150,000 Police and Crime Commissioner.

I agree with Cllr Plews raising the issue of councillors laughing at the meeting last night. The conduct of many councillors last night was a disgrace.

Public Comment about Rutland County Councils, Cllr Gene Plews, resignation from the Tory Party

Public Comment about Rutland County Councils, Cllr Gene Plews, resignation from the Tory Party

I received the following message:

Thank you for Plews news.
Hope ruling alliance of 3rd rate
pack of Tory jackals,
whose systematic & mortal
wounding of the noble beast
of democracy, is over.


I am not sure its over, one loss from such a large pack is like Roger Begy or Terry King 
losing a mouldy toe nail.

Cllr Gene Plews, Resigns from Rutland County Council, Tories

I would say the Rutland County Councillor has seen sense and resigned from the Conservative Party.

I wont.

Cllr Gene Plews has always been very selective about who he assists
in our ward, One resident who claims friendship with the Councillor
was thrilled to receive the above two cones when they raised parking
issues.

Cllr Gene Plews claims to have resigned from the Conservatives over parking issues in the Oakham South East Ward created by Rutland County Councils daft green policy.

There is more to this resignation that meets the eye.

He was pushed out of the cabinet earlier this year.

The ex Tory thug signed a police statement last year claiming I had destroyed Oakham!

The question still remains over this councillors eligibility to remain a councillor in any capacity.

He lives outside Rutland and hangs onto his seat by claiming he runs a company in Oakham.

He cuts a hedge in Barnsdale and no company is registered in his name. 

He often talks about SAS and the selling of his very successful security company. 

A check of companies house shows this company was dormant in the year he claimed so much success.

Cllr Plews is a great supporter of  few councillors at Oakham Town Council and the old guard.

Durring his time as a Tory at Rutland County Council it appears he did a good job for sport and some work with young people.

Although I fear what he has created for the future of Rutland, with his work with the youth parliament.

Rutland County Council Standards Committee once ruled it was fine for this councillor and Tory Roger Begy to refer to me as an idiot. Which I am not.


Cllr Plews could not even control Leicestershire police parking in his ward,

He has always had a dififcult relationship with the police, always demanding more, in a police statement he
questioned why the then Tory Police authority chairman now ex Tory Rutland County Councillor Mr Roper
was not doing anything about me?


This is a typical parking issue throughout his ward, (Homes Contractors)

Mr Plews has a side kick in our ward and he remains a Tory Councillor
for our ward, Cllr Munton no one knows what he does. Accept he
is a company director for a company owned by a former Tory Councillor
