11 October (Part 2) - More on Moore
The Contact page was temporarily withdrawn last month after it attracted
one
too many abusive messages but it was too valuable a facility to lose especially its optional anonymity.
I had knocked up the code myself many years ago from bits nicked off the web and
it was far from perfect, those CAPTCHA spam filters are nothing but a pain; so I paid for better Contact code.
The new page can do CAPTCHA but includes
alternative security code. So far it appears to be working well without
CAPTCHA and there have been more messages delivered that way since its introduction; nearly all of them anonymous.
One of the new facilities is the inclusion of attached files and the first of them arrived overnight.
It continues with the Bexley bullying theme and in particular whatever happened to
long serving Director Paul Moore. Another message asks where the hell is the
new Chief Executive Jackie Belton whose low profile has been mentioned already. I have no
idea whether there is any justification for that report, perhaps she believes in holing up in her Civic Office bunker.
The Paul Moore submission is a little more substantive and says that a letter is
circulating among staff that may shed a little light on his mysterious disappearance.
The attachment is not a proper scan but looks to me as though it was quickly snapped on a
mobile. It is to be honest not as clear as it might be and disappointingly fails
to include either a date or a signature, but it appears to be genuine enough in
that I cannot imagine it was written by anyone other than Paul Moore.
From the bits that I am able to read I would say it is far too personal to be
reproduced here but it is clearly written from the heart and a heart that someone appears to have broken.
I will leave you with this small extract. Someone at Bexley Council has been
extraordinarily cruel towards Paul Moore. We had our very occasional differences but I
could also refer you to incidents which would show him to be kind and caring. That
might in itself explain why he is no longer welcome in Bexley, if that is indeed the case.
