7 June (Part 1) - Question time
Question 1
An anonymous mischief maker asks a very topical question…
You may want to ask the Council how much the interim CEO [Paul Thorogood] is receiving by way of a bonus from central government funds for overseeing the general election. Rumours of £50k, maybe additional bonuses for each and every other type of election too.
Bexley’s Returning Officer is a very lucky man - or woman in recent years - because the borough controls three constituency counts.
Government websites are neither up to date nor transparent about this subject but back in 2011
the Chief Executive walked away with £8,000 for just one election.
In July we have two. Erith and Thamesmead has gone AWOL.
Question 2
Having beaten Bexley Council over their unlawful declaration of vexatiousness they can only attack @tonyofsidcup with harassment and only then if his
question can be twisted towards environmentalism. The Information Commissioner
said that a pedestrian crossing could be considered environmental because it
would have an effect on traffic flow and therefore vehicle pollution. The
country is crooked from top to bottom isn’t it? Well top anyway.
@tony is still addicted to FOIs. He asked Bexley Council which Councillor represented it at the Oxleas NHS Trust
now but more importantly, why the previous incumbent was not a Councillor or Council employee.
They told him they didn’t know which has to be a very obvious lie.
He tried again and Bexley Council decided it would be fun to
mess him around again.
Your FOI request would be for the NHS to respond to.
If you remain unhappy with the way your request for information has been
handled, you have a right of appeal to the Information Commissioner. Regards Nicole Klynman.
What the Hell are they playing at? Both names were published in
the Agenda of the November 2023
Full Council Meeting, one being nothing but a Tory activist. Sounds a bit
bent to me. In the past the Council Leader has
delivered whole speeches about @tony wasting taxpayers’ money
but now they are inviting him to take his case to the Information Commissioner and waste more money.
How would the NHS know why the Council Leader sent an activist to represent us at Oxleas?
By the way, it was this one…
The arrogant Mr. Newbury was not elected but was given a political appointment anyway.
Doctor Klynman is Bexley Council’s Director of Public Health paid £126,127 per annum plus a £5,415 allowance for goodness knows what and is unable to answer the simplest of questions on public health. How is it that Bexley Council manages to recruit so many dud managers? It’s fortunate that real medicine is not practiced there.
Question 3
One of my regular mischief makers asks about my voting intentions.
I would have thought that if you was in Bexley
Sidcup constituency you would have voted for the Reform candidate. (Big Smiley face)
He is probably as aware as I am that there are at least five, it may be six,
people living in or near this borough who have had their collars felt by the
fuzz after being falsely accused of stealing huge sums of money. Arrested,
investigated and released without charge up to a year later. I’d rather vote
Labour in Old Bexley than Reform UK.
