Oakham Town Council Planning Meeting Abandoned After Protest, By GrumpyJag Oakham People


Oakham Town Council Planning Meeting Abandoned After Protest

By GrumpyJag | Thursday, September 27, 2012, 16:04

GrumpyJag is an improvement on his previous on-line user names like 'carpetburns' fancy that? a respectable Mayor at the time using that name! you should have seen the Judges face when Jims statement was read out to the Judge. "I was a town councillor and mayor twice and used that name on-line....." (tribunal)

also a female employee of Leicestershire Police expressed her shock only just last week.

While members of the public are rightly allowed, in fact encouraged, to make deputations, surely they cannot make accusations nor comments as were allegedly made at this particular meeting.
Must make a point of going to some of these meetings for some entertainment,I didn't realise they could be so riveting

There was a time when Grumpy Jim believed in freedom of speech, those rights seem to only apply to him and others connected to local governance and no one else unless they approve.

Jim a former Mayor has often been highly critical of Rutland County Council so you would imagine we
would get along fine but we don't.

Jim forgets the times he sat at the Council table and said the most inappropriate things about them up the
road, referring to Rutland County Council. the problem is the Town  Council is no better if not worse?

I agree with everything Mr Harrsion said in this report in the Guardian, it a pity he is so rude and  bitter
about me. I assume if I was protesting about the County Council then Jim would not have a problem with that. But oh no, know one can protest or be critical about his town council.


Jims comments about the County Council from the Guardian


..........The upshot, he concedes, is that while a majority of Rutlanders are pleased with the performance of the county council, a "significant minority" remain concerned about the cost of independence. Jim Harrison, mayor of Oakham, the largest town, is among them. "I was always against the idea from the outset," he says. "I said it would cost us more money - and so it has. Nothing good has come of it."
For Harrison, it boils down to the council tax: £1,200 annually, he says, for a three-bedroom house in Rutland and only £800 for a similar property in Leicestershire "three miles away". Since his outburst in the Rutland Times last week, he insists he has received considerable support. "A lot of people have stopped me and said: 'Thank God we have a mayor who's saying what we're thinking.' They remember the first thing the [new] council did: spend £1m to extend its head office."
Begy will have none of it. "[Harrison] has taken a hell of a lot of stick from local people.


I wonder if the camera in the photo above was the one he used at the Royal Wedding Party when he lined up woman to film and drop their trousers, this included a former mayor and school governor who went one stage further and pulled her knickers down in the street and bent over and exposed her dignity for all to see. I say all because Jim was so pleased with the result he went ahead and posted it on You Tube titled Oakham Royal Wedding Celebration Jim the self appointed protector of children. did not consider the eye full children would get when they logged on and viewed his depraved production.

Jim is a taxi driver and is a fan a the Daily Mail so I know he will enjoy the headline grabbing description
depraved. I can't think of anything other suitable description to describe his film staring so many local

dignitaries?
