The new store opened this evening over a glass of sparkling wine.

Oakham Traders Abandon Rutland to seek customers at Burghley Horse Trials, Burghley House, Stamford, Lincolnshire

Oakham traders abandon Rutland  and head for Lincolnshire and set up shop at Burghley Horse Trials at Burghley House.

You might think this shop has been looted of all its expensive goodies or as one passer by said "that didn't last long" think it has closed down a closer inspection of a note in the window explains all.

I wonder if the Burghley Horse Trials is not really a shopping bonanza for those who hold platinum or gold cards?

This shop invites its customer to spend money on fuel and travel and up to £25 on a ticket to buy from them?

Conservative Rutland Times Subservient to Conservative Rutland County Council

Conservative Rutland Times Subservient to Conservative Rutland County Council

A reader of my blog, this morning asked  "why has the local press not picked up on my story, about the Councillors calling in the police at Rutland County Council?"

Good question I thought. The answer is in the title of this post. Also they have been conditioned to ignoring me... and there are no true journalists working at the paper any more. They rely heavily on incomplete press releases from both council meetings so often you will read a planning meeting Monday Evening with no time mentioned.

Although the Rutland County Councillor has put into writing he and others have called in the police. Rutland County Councils official line is nothing has happened. Chief Executive Helen Briggs and Head of Legal Services Geoff Pook then write to the Councillor in the normal bullying fashion to attempt to shut him up.

To be fair to the Rutland Times they do print rubbish from non Conservatives they give egotistic space to our good Town Mayor. One member of the public said who does she think she is "My Town" "My County"

Reading this reminded me of Helen Briggs and Geoff Pook at Rutland County Council

Legal boss working for fatcat council chief Andrea Hill sent her suicide note citing 'demands placed on him'

A senior council officer who killed himself due to pressures at work left a  suicide note addressed to his controversial boss, an inquest heard yesterday.
David White, 51, hanged  himself in woodland after becoming depressed about his increasing workload.

The demands Fat Cat Boss Helen Briggs and her team of cowardly bullies place on the Head of Legal Services at Rutland County Council must be immense. 

 

(Sorry I forgot Peterborough City Council now run his department)

Its clear from my experience of Rutland County Council the Head of Legal Services is often forced to bring his profession into disrepute. Mr Pook has often said to me, almost all I say is true, but its the way you say it. If this statement is true then why not support all of us who complain about the way Rutland County Council treats people instead appearing to be turning a constant blind eye?  (must be the big pay packet?)

Stop covering for the fat cats often illegal behaviour and lack of ability during the May elections just to name one set of incidents

Before long I should think his pressure will be reduced as she slowly puts herself out of a job.

Contracting out nearly all departments surely leaves her with little work to do and any justification to continue as the highly paid Chief Executive.

I have noticed the council critics are growing on Twitter she can't shut them all up for long.

 

Of course they can block them if they don't like what they see.  I was threatened by Rutland County Council for mentioning Council staff and Councillors by name on Twitter when referring to the new pool bikes.

 

Rutland County County Council sent me a direct message requesting I delete the messages and refrain from using names in further tweets or they will block me.

 

Censorship again! I don't think, so I blocked them I don't want to see the rubbish Helen Briggs sanctions as ok! to Tweet!
