15 February (Part 2) - James Hunt. Do we have an honest politician?

James HuntI spent yesterday evening reading all my correspondence with Councillor James Hunt as far back as 2021 in the hope of rediscovering exactly what he was supposed to have done to two untruthful women.

Along the way I was reminded of his opinion of various Councillors. One was evil and another was vile and if I named them you would wholly agree. In the main we were in agreement on everything although his choice of who would make the best Conservative Leader after Boris Johnson ate a cake was very different to my own.

For some unknown reason we briefly discussed the Top Gun films and my rather extravagant Atmos sound system and more recently and pertinently what we thought about Reform UK’s prospects in Bexley.

What was good is that nothing he said was contradicted by the recent Court case. When he protested his innocence to me I was of course very much aware that I was hearing only his version of events and more than once asked myself if I was right to accept his version 100%.

But James Hunt once shook my hand under the nose of some of his colleagues at a time when every one of them hated me. He is a man who plays things straight, maybe a bit of a rebel, but then so am I, and one doesn’t desert good people on the back of ugly and unsubstantiated rumours.

Did I rediscover why the two women decided to take revenge on James? Err; yes, he told me why.

And did I discover exactly what he was supposed to have done and where? Yes again, in one case anyway.

But it’s not for me to drop hints on anything. Just be aware that James’ story as relayed to me over the past three years was exactly as Judge Corrin said last week. We desperately need honest politicians and in JH we have one.
