The article in today's Private Eye was mentioned to the Councillor in Tesco tonight and that was his
response.
The member of the public told him he was ridiculous.
I agree, but then you can't expect more from a Councillor who publicly said he did not like
the ex Tory Chairman of The Police Authority and described him as a c*nt.
He also was the first person I spoke to about internet attacks against me.
When he posted on the council forum "who the fuck is martin brookes"
Which resulted in a number of offensive post from many people including Town Councillor.
The respectable Mayor at the time used the user name carpet burns and supplied them with
photographs photo shopped of me...
As for Mehra's family I sure Private Eye has not caused them an issue, lets hope the
rest of the media world pick up on it an they get justice and bully Briggs is dealt with.
The union rep needs to speak up also, but then again he is as bad as the Tory mob, because
when he told me Briggs was a bully he threatened me not to publish what he said.
Private Eye, The Rotten Borough, Helen Briggs, Aman Mehra, Rutland Anti Corruption Party,
Leicestershire Police
In this weeks Private Eye you can read about the Rotten Borough.
The article is about the Rutland County Council, The Chief Executive Helen Briggs
The tragic suicide that Iron Boots hopes will go away.
Sadly it mentions a pensioner who received a threatening phone call
after she wrote a letter to the Rutland Times. "keep you nose out" she was told.
When I first started making comments about our bullying councils and their friends,
I received a phone call from a woman she said "we know where you live"
Christmas 2010 I received a call from a man threatening "to do me in"
The police tell me the call originated from a payphone at Leicester Hospital.
I do not believe they made any effort to trace the call because as was the case then
and now, the number is a fax line not a payphone. When I google the number it suggests
it's a Tilton On The Hill Number, Some research led me to find this is the prefered
location for The Rutland Tories to hold their meetings. Sgt Foster was put in charge
of this so it does not surprise me nothing was achieved, He once said "I deserve all
I get"
Then there were the despicable depraved letters, many binned when Inspector Monks
was based in Oakham, the grave stone order and then my arrest earlier this year which
When ten people some Councillors led by Tory Councillor Gene Plews lied to police.
All claiming I stalk them. The CPS were critical of the police. I am attempting to obtain
a copy of the report using FOI. Then there are their homophobic blogs and twitter accounts,
which Leicester Police seem to be having great difficulty in tracing. I am sure if I set up
something similar attacking them or the local council they would be knocking on my door the
same day.
I do hope the old lady is not subject to the same bullying I have suffered over
the last 5+ years.
The people connected to the local Tory Party are very nasty cowardly bullies.
If you are critical of local governance her in Rutland, you have to keep looking over
your shoulder. Looking out for Briggs, Beggy, King and Plews Bullies, The first three
described as that in a email I once received from the lapsed Tory now Anti Corruption
Party member, The last from my own personal experience.

Copies of Private Eye have sold out in many local newsagent this week, Tesco Oakham still has
a few copies.
From today’s Private Eye, Rotten Boroughs, page 15
Strange goings on in Britain’s smallest county. On the morning of 15 June, Aman Mehra, Rutland council’s “Director of Places”, was confronted in the council offices by chief executive Helen Briggs. She told him he was suspended indefinitely and escorted him off the premises. That evening, he was found hanged at his home in Leicester. An inquest concluded he had taken his own life and recorded a narrative verdict. The court heard that “disciplinary” letters were found in his car, but their contents were not revealed. Colleagues say that Mehra, 42, was honest, well-liked and appeared to have no problems. Family members, however, say that he had complained of being “ marginalised” at work and was worried after “discovering things that he shouldn't have”.
Since Mehtra’s death, a group of three independent councillors formed the “Rutland Anti-Corruption Party” after asking questions about a number of property sales of which the details seemed sketchy. The councillors were reduced to making freedom of information requests to the council in an attempt to see relevant files and documents.
Last month, Rutland responded by paying law firm Bevan-Brittan £8,000 to “investigate” the Anti-Corruption Party. This was presumably a roundabout way of threatening libel proceedings, on the grounds that to say one is “anti-corruption” may suggest that corruption exists.
Meanwhile, in late November, a pensioner who wrote to a local paper calling for “openness and transparency” about Mehra’s death received an anonymous phone call warning her to “keep her nose out”. Multum in Parvo indeed.”
