Oakham Town Council To Consider Holding a Mini LGBT Pride Event

Oakham Town Council To Consider Holding a Mini LGBT Pride Event
in Cutts Close during its summer season of band concerts.

A email today from a fellow Council member surprised me this morning.

"I will be discussing with the PPWG the possibility that Pride could feature at a band concert,"

I look forward to what the Town Council decides to offer our LGBT community.


I can no longer report issues with the Cycle Bollard to the Clerk Allison Greaves due to Oakham Town Council unlawful sanctions

I can no longer report issues with the Cycle Bollard to the Clerk Allison Greaves due to Oakham Town Council unlawful sanctions





















Earlier this year Rutland County Council carried out some work on the
pavement at the location where Oakham Town Council had installed
three new cycle bollards.
The contractors removed one and did not put it back.
I contacted the Clerk Allison Greaves who at first did nothing
to get it back.
After many months Rutland County Council has returned to bollard
damaged and it has been fitted incorrectly the bolts are loose and the
bollard can be moved.

I can not continue to get this sorted due to the unlawful sanctions
imposed by Oakham Town Council.

What I find annoying is Oakham Town Council spends public money
and never seems bothered to ensure things are done correctly or
even that the tax payers get value for money.

After street furniture issues are an perfect example the hanging baskets
arrive late and not as ordered and the Clerk Allison Greave ignores
my requests about seeking a reduce payment the baskets cost thousands
Oakham in Bloom Craig Howet lied to the Judges the other week when
he said Oakham Town Councils dreadful looking baskets were recovering from
the storm, they were the same as when they were delivered.

Plantscape have never provided the council with quality or value for money
see one of my many posts below 2015 includes a letter to the local press
from a resident. The Council takes no notice because the Clerks have never
been bothered to go out to find people to tender just like the Christmas
tree and lights.

Allison Greaves Oakham Town Clerk Refuses To Send Me Emails Containing Council Business



This week Oakham Town Council has implemented unlawful sanctions against me.

Those sanctions do not say the clerk should not send me emails containing council
business.

I am aware that since Wednesday the Clerk Allison Greaves has unlawfully excluded
me from receiving emails containing council business addressed to all members.

The clerk is currently on a probation period if she does not want to work with all
members of the Council then she should be sacked and replaced with a person
who is willing not to exclude anyone.

Last month residents asked me to place an item on the Agenda. They feel they
have been harassed by Cllr Joyce Lucas for 14 years and in there email they
ask me to end their misery. The Clerk refused to put the tree matter on the
agenda.
So far this year the Clerk has refused to put at least three of my requests on the agenda

Gordon Brown the Chairman of the LRAC tells me this is unlawful and a clerk
can only refuse Cllrs agenda items for a very few legal reasons and that legal
reason must be stated.

I recently attended a LRAC meeting and found we are not only council that has
problems with Clerks doing as they please or following instructions from Chairman's

The LRAC is looking into removing Clerk from its organisation to assist Councillors
and Councillors with problems like the one I experience.

A Councillor must be able to function and by not permitting agenda item and withholding
council business is preventing me from carrying out my duties.

No Longer able to report damage to Oakham Town Council Bunting to Clerk Allison Greaves Due to Councils unlawful sanctions






Sanction number four is defamatory

A member of the public asked me does the Clerk Allison Greaves not know you
are gay?

The answer is yes the old guard have always been homophobic biggots

Cllr Lowe once said Oakham Town Council does not like gay people.

Oakham Town Council Health and Safety Failures Clerk Allison Greaves Neglect Cutts Close Play Area

Oakham Town Council Health and Safety Failures Clerk Allison Greaves Neglect Cutts Close Play Area





The above piece of damaged equipment
has been reported by at least two 
members of the council months ago






The above damaged seat was reported 
by Cllrs and a member of the public
months ago
The Clerk has delegated authority to 
get this fixed

I would have thought all the faults in the parks
would have been fixed before the school 
summer holidays.

Former Clerk Richard White always inspected and looked
after the play areas and they were kept to a high standard
since he departed the council the play areas look very
shabby and neglected.







This piece of equipment has been highlighted as
concern by Wickstead a possible  risk of a childs limb 
being squashed under it because it no longer
turns level.


I have refrained from posting many of Oakham 
Town Councils faults on my blog because I was able to 
communicate with the clerk, now she complains
I am harassing and being vexatious, this has resulted
in the council banning me from contacting her

I believe it is a Councillors duty to point out
dangers and to point out when the Clerk
does not do their job.

Apparently that is not the case at Oakham Town
Council all they are worried about is the Clerk
might want money for constructive dismissal
and then they unlawfully implement sanctions 
against me, rather dealing with the problem

We have a clerk who is either not able to do her
job or just cant be bothered. The problem is  when 
she worked as assistant for Richard White 
she tells me she was never given any work to do.

It also appears that the Councillors are not interested
in what is not being done 

The Clerk is failing to comply with the requirements
of the transparency act and Councillor seem to 
be happy with that also.










Oakham Town Council Health and Safety Failures Clerk Allison Greaves Neglect Willow Crescent Play Area






Although it is unlawful for a council to investigate members or sanction members
Oakham Town Council has decided to do both, all because the Clerk does not
like to be questioned about anything.

Months ago I reported this play equipment has loose fittings my emails have been
ignored.

All three of our play areas have damage and dangerous equipment

It is apparently employment harassment for a Councillor to report the faults to the
clerk and ask for updates.

It would appear no other member of the council is interested in the Health and Safety
of the Children who use these areas.

The Council pay Wickstead Leisure to inspect the play equipment and most of the concerns
are ignored and reports are never present to full council.
