It does not surprise me that Rutland County Council refises to release this information.

Cllr Terry King turned very nasty in the early days when I asked a simple question about the original presentation. Did Cllr King declare it was his company shown in the presentation. to this date he and the
council have refused to answer that simple question.

Looking at further Tweets it appears the Digital Rutland Contract Signed by Helen Briggs Chief Executive
of Rutland County County Council has been leaked. If its sent to me I would be happy to publish it.

Cllr Richardson wrote to Tory Councillor Pocock

It has been raised with us that the handling of the Broadband has involved illegal
activity, which is now being taken to the European Courts. This again is under your
Portfolio and one would expect an immediate briefing of all members with an
indication of what investigation is taking place and any subsequent action to be
recommended.

If this happened to a Government Minister he would be expected to resign, since it
is under their watch. The same applies to yourself if these allegation are true.

There maybe some truth in the above as I received emails from a person claiming to be the former
chairman of Rutland Telecom, his emails were very similar to Cllr Richardson's. and a quick trace 
of the ip address showed the email originated from a playroom, in Uppingham and included his name.

Interestingly since Rutland County Council dropped their support for the company some
strange events have happened, Rutland Telecom street equipment has been damaged in villages
and police are currently investigating two breakins at the Uppingham telephone exchange resulting 
in only Rutland Telecoms Service being switched off.

What I can't understand is why anyone would want to do that and how would they know what to 
look for does the exchange label each provider?

It was interesting to hear a Rutland County Councillor Cabinet member admit she was thick.
Councillor Mrs Janine Rodger (Conservative) - COTTESMORE WARD said she is obviously thick when she comes to matters like this.

Uppingham First would like people to register expressions of interest in high speed broadband for village communities within a ten mile range of Uppingham. Contact secretary@uppinghamfirst.co.uk
