Martin Brookes, Oakham, Rutland, Request, Support Required


Support Required.

I am pleased to report that people are offering  me support, during this difficult time.
Others have have asked how they can help.

If you wish to help please write to my Solicitors who are a brilliant team.

I would particularly like letters highlighting anything you my have been told by
any one connected to Oakham Town Council and Rutland Council, this includes
information relating to the Councillors past and present who make false allegations of Paedophilia
against me.

A fine example of a letter written by a respectable member of our community is shown below
as an example. (I wish my grammar and spelling was as fine)

Dear Ms Wolska,

I am pleased to write a few words as a character testimonial for Mr Martin Brookes, whom, I understand, you are currently supporting against a number of charges of harassment made by some individuals in the local community.

I have been on the full-time ################ September 19##, although I am not a permanent resident of the town and I have no involvement whatsoever in the local politics which seem to lie at the heart of Martin’s imbroglio. Neither do I know personally or hold any grievance against any of the complainants who have raised the charges of harassment. Moreover, my acquaintance with Martin goes no further than friendly discourse and I therefore consider my appraisal of him quite impartial and objective.

His arrival here in 2006 was brought to my notice by a long-standing and highly-respected friend (from #####) who in the past has used holiday accommodation in a North London ###### Martin was ######. ###### I meet Martin in the town and am always happy to engage in conversation, and to listen sympathetically to the problems he has suffered.

In my judgement, in the light of my having known Martin directly and indirectly, he is an honest, trustworthy, kindly and decent character, who responds positively to courtesy and respect. I can appreciate that his outspoken political views and openness about his sexuality cause consternation in the small, provincial community of Oakham, Rutland, but as far as I am aware, he has done nothing to justify the torrent of abuse, hatred, threats of violence, intimidation and torment that he has endured, much of which has been at the hands of individuals who have hidden behind the cloak of anonymity, either through the internet or in the hate- and nuisance-mail that has been directed to him. In striking and complete contrast to this, Martin has always taken pains to identify himself openly as the author of his (admittedly) critical publications. Those who are claiming harassment by him should contemplate what it must be like to be on the receiving end of such an orchestrated campaign of venom. Much of it emanated from the internet channels of those who styled themselves “oakhamlaughingstocks” and “oakytaxidriver” and who conducted a relentless campaign of hatred targeted at Martin, all with the ‘protection’ of anonymity until they were silenced by the arrest, apparently, of one of the perpetrators.

While I have no objection to this information being used in Martin’s defence, I would rather my name and connection with ######### be treated with discretion. I have already suffered at the hands of one of Martin’s internet assailants, who only expurgated  the offending text when I complained to the Police, and I am currently considering action against that party, when his or her identity is formally disclosed.

I very much hope that this unpleasant matter can be brought to a fair and just conclusion.

With good wishes,

Yours sincerely,
