Scientologists in Crowborough and Human Rights Abuses.

2012-01-16T17:23:00.001Z

"Twelve months later, and being subjected to a course of intensive interrogations, re-indoctrination, sleep deprivation, filthy, heavy and demeaning work details and snubbed by former comrades on a daily basis, she was still there. She saw little hope of an end to the process, no way to escape the regime, and in a black fit of despair, decided to kill herself.

One afternoon, I had just driven back the camp; I saw an ambulance and people in a tizzy and running around. I was told by a white-faced college that Alice had ran out of the RPF indoctrination room, gone to the workshop, found a tin of paint thinner, swallowed it then climbed up on top of the gym roof, a fifteen-foot high structure surrounded by concrete. She jumped."

The above is an example of a tale of Human Rights Violation but can anyone guess where this happened.North Korea,China or some South American country where life is cheap and violent death is commonplace.
No you are all wrong because this occured in Crowborough at the Scientologists Walshes Manor establishment.

Southern water are completely crap.

2011-12-15T22:12:00.001Z

On behalf of a friend I would like you all to know that Southern Water are so crap that they had to redefine crapness to accomodate just how crap Southern Water are.

Said friend tried to resolve a dispute between his daughter and Southern Water.Given that Southern water were trying to extort £100 a quarter for water to a small flat it was assumed that they were taking the piss somewhat.

Southern Water being so shit they dont even make a pretence at providing any form of service least of all customer service and just ignore any attempt to resolve the issue.
So in summary my friend would like to point out that..

Southern Water is shit.
Its customer service is shit.
Its billing system is shit.
Its service guarantee is shit.
Its staff are shit.
Its management are shit.

Every part of Southern Water is shit.I hear they are in the middle of a rebranding exercise whereby their logo is going to be a giant turd to reflect what their organisation is all about.

Couldnt have put it better myself.

A quote from someone who knows how local government works.Although it relates to Dorset it applies equally to our own rotten corrupt unelected council.

"The deep seated nature of this problem in regard to building stock is due in large part to the government itself, or their agents the councillors. For decades there has been a false assumption that councils knew what they were doing, and that councillors were honest. A check with the land registry will show that a good percentage of councillors in any particular district own a disproportionate amount of property. This is even more striking when one looks at the background and qualifications of councillors. The fact is that the opportunity to build up a property portfolio has been seen as a perk of the job, and in West Dorset at least two thirds of councillors are in it to manipulate the system. Add to this the District Councils cosy relationship with big builders who can satisfy targets in one fell swoop, and the problem is clear. If the government were serious and decided to scrutinise their 'agents' they would find sufficient criminality to lock some of them up."

Mind how you go with that sausage roll or your nicked.

2011-11-15T17:04:00.001Z

Pearls of wisdom from the local fuzz commander on twitter consists of
"turn your lights on in the fog" and the calorific value of alcohol compared to sausage rolls and cake.I kid you not.

"WealdenDistComm Dick Coates
@Wealdenpol: Fog ? Lights on and drive with extra care"

"WealdenDistComm Dick Coates
A glass of wine can contain as many calories as a slice of cake & a pint has the same as a small sausage roll"

There was me thinking that the Police were there to protect us and our property from crime and they seem more interested in competing with fat fighters and stating the bloody obvious.

Who cares how much alcohol you drink and how many sausage rolls you eat ?Its of no business to anyone other than yourself and certainly no business of Dick and his mates.He has clearly got too much time on his hands if these are the most important issues in Sussex.

What a life.

Boundary Changes

2011-09-17T23:01:00.002+01:00

The proposals are out and I had the opportunity to have my say in the local paper.
At the moment the parliamentary constituency of Wealden is contained within the Local Authority area of Wealden.Crowborough,Uckfield and Hailsham are the largest towns.Under the proposals a new constituency of Weald will be created with Crowborough joining areas of Kent but losing Uckfield and Hailsham.
Politically and physically Crowborough will become just a dot on the map and I cant really see another MP having the local knowledge or interest in the area that Charles Hendry does.If we are relying on the Town Council to
represent our interests to the MP we are really in trouble .Towns with more vocal and democratically elected Parish/Town Councils will represent their towns interests over and above a disfunctional council such as Crowborough Town Council .Like Mr Rochesters wife Crowborough will be put in the loft of the constituency and forgotten about.Unless we get a local person to stand as MP for the new Weald constituency we are screwed politically.
Realistically will it make any difference come the next election,probably not.My only hope is that people will realise that voting for the same old same old achieves nothing and will wake up to the merits of voting for UKIP .Unfortuanately just as many people oop North would vote for a pig if it had a labour sticker on it many people down here would vote for a pig as long as it had a Conservative or Lib dem sticker on it .

Sussex Safer Roads Partnership.

2011-09-17T15:49:00.000+01:00

This is the new updated name for the Sussex Scamera Partnership who lectures drivers about speed limits for commercial vehicles yet allows its own van drivers to break those rules.

Their website is pretty crap really especially the bit about FAQs relating to speeding offences.

Two answers to FAQs are not just a bit misleading-they are as wrong as you can get.

Lie 1)"Section 172(7) of the Road Traffic Act 1988 states that the NIP must be returned fully completed and signed. If you return the form unsigned you will be summonsed to court for failing to identify the driver "

If you look at Section 172(7) it states nothing of the sort.What it actually states is ...

"(7)A requirement under subsection (2) may be made by written notice served by post; and where it is so made—.
(a)it shall have effect as a requirement to give the information within the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which the notice is served, and.
(b)the person on whom the notice is served shall not be guilty of an offence under this section if he shows either that he gave the information as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of that period or that it has not been reasonably practicable for him to give it.."

So thats one complete lie for a start.

Lie 2) "In accordance with the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act 1996, we are only required to provide you with the copies of the photographic evidence showing the offence. The request for photographic evidence must be for a legitimate reason and not for the purpose of identifying the driver"

Look at the relevant legislation here and you will see it says no such thing anywhere within it.

Thats 2 complete lies from the revenue raising scamera partnership.If you get a ticket from Sussex Scameras make sure you read the relevant legislation yourself dont rely on these con merchants for anything resembling advice.

Clued Up Info-Update.

2011-09-12T13:20:00.002+01:00

Clued Up info seem very reluctant to tell us where all but £50 of its £78000 income came from last financial year.The accounts all seem to be amended so it doesnt show which organisations actually awarded the grants that makes up the remainder.
Well I can inform you all that Clued Up is actually part of the Youth Development Service of ESCC and the lions share of the grants come from the taxpayer via ESCC.The other main giver of taxpayers money is Crowborough Town Council whose Mayor is none other than Kay Moss who (by sheer coincidence)is also a trusteee of Clued Up.
What would be the motive the YDS aka Clued Up hiding who gave them money I hear you ask.Well in truth I dont know but what I do know is that one of the criteria for the Town Council handing out taxpayers money in the form of grants is that "bodies self funded or provided for by other authorities" would not be eligible for funding by them .So according to CTCs own rules Clued Up shouldnt get a penny from the Town Council because its funds are largely provided by other authorities.
Obviously different rules apply if the Mayor happens to be a trustee of the charity and an employee of ESCC.Nothing to see here move along.

Perhaps I should also mention that the town council insists usually that any unspent funds are returned to them.Why the hell then hasnt Clued Up returned all the Crowborough residents money when its got £55,000 cash in the bank to carry over. Obviously different rules again.

Message to all unelected Crowborough Town Council members.

2011-09-03T22:25:00.002+01:00

It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your town for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.

Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you? Is there one vice you do not possess? Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter'd your conscience for bribes? Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the town?

Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defil'd this sacred place, and turn'd the town council into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices? Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole town; you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress'd, are yourselves gone! So! Take away that shining bauble there, and lock up the doors.

In the name of God, go!

Andrew Steen - Co Optee profile

2011-09-03T22:21:00.000+01:00

Camera shy co optee Andrew Steen seems reluctant to share with us his politics and why he thinks he is suitable to represent residents in the East Ward.Since being handed the position on a plate without the hassle of being voted by anyone we have heard nothing from him other than he really wants to get in on the action as vice chairman of the planning committee including no doubt secret meetings with property developers.
Looking into his past we should all be very afraid because he worked in planning at Tunbridge Wells Borough Council and we can all see the disaster that the town planning in the town has produced.
If ever there was a person who shouldnt be let anywhere near town planning issues then Andrew Steen is that person.People like this get to these positions by who they know rather than what they know and I am sure he is pally with someone on the council which oiled the cogs of co option.
In summary then we have someone who we know nothing about other than he likes to ruin town centres second in charge of planning on the council.As for his politics he could be a member of the Communist Party for all we know and has been inserted into the town council to undermine the town and its institutions.Even worse and much more plausable is that he is a common purpose graduate inserted into the council by persons unknown to undermine the town administration such as it is.
All we do know is that this person is unelected and represents no one other than himself in a council riddled with non elected non entities.
I call on him to resign and seek re-election through a fair and open ballot of the Crowborough East Ward voters.Until he has the mandate of the people he purports to represent he will remain an undemocratic usurper with no more power or influence than anyone else in the town.

Dodgy goings on at the Council again.

2011-09-01T13:10:00.001+01:00

Wanted

In addition to Peter Cowie we are able to publish two other individuals that have commited crimes against democracy and transparency.
Both of these individuals like Peter Cowie are also deluded in thinking they are councillors despite the fact that not one person has voted for them.
We now have the complete gang of Cowie,Moss and Timms or dumb ,dumber and even dumber acting well beyond their remit and way beyond what is right and proper by holding secret unminuted meetings with property developers .
It appears that Neil Waller raised this at the last council meeting but Cowie,Moss and Timms refused to respond and instead trotting out some load of old crap about nothing relevant at all in reply.
So we have councillors secretly meeting with companies who want to build houses over vast swathes of the town despite the slight problem of the housing market flat lining locally and nationally.The fact that these meetings are occurring in private and unminuted would indicate that these three are up to no good and are at the very least bringing the council into disrepute which is no easy task .Developers cosying up to councillors in secret is something you might see in a corrupt banana republic but to the residents of this town it will be seen as unacceptable and those involved should resign or face the consequences.

Thanks to anon for the info .

Update-Timms has resigned as vice chairman of the planning committee but not as a councillor.

Downfall-second chance to enjoy.

2011-08-23T10:51:00.001+01:00

My latest video is delayed due to that unfortunate thing called work taking up too much time.

So to keep you all going and the fact that it annoys the hell out of certain unelected members of the undemocratic republic of Crowborough Town Council I have reposted this.

Bad language and violence-not suitable for kids.

Wanted- for contempt of the rule of law.

2011-08-21T22:53:00.000+01:00

Wanted .

Have you seen this person?.He is wanted for crimes against democracy and crimes against the taxpayers of Crowborough with an attitude of contempt for the rule of law.

He has been a key player in a gang that has obtained a loan but lumbered the good people of Crowborough with the repayments using a very unlikely and slightly dodgy £3million business deal for a very small hall.When he was recently questioned about another dodgy deal of building a car park without planning permission his comment was "oh sod it" ive been caught out .It is believed that this person is suffering from inflated ego syndrome and likes to think of himself as a councillor despite there being no evidence that anyone has actually voted for him .

If you see him do not approach him because he is dangerous (to democracy and the finances of the town) and likely to react in an unpredictable manner at all times.

Apaches over Crowborough.

2011-08-13T09:34:00.003+01:00

I have heard from a source that NATO is planning a no fly zone over Crowborough because those in charge of the town are an undemocratic rabble.
The Town Council leader Muammar Moss has been given an ultimatum that unless democracy is restored by open and free elections within 4 weeks ground troops will be deployed with Apache air support in order to liberate the people of the town.
In response the official spokesperson from the undemocratic republic of Crowborough said "we are working hard with our partners to facilitate change within our communities and celebrate diversity through our new dictatorship framework document which can be found online.Surveys have found that everyone in the town is happy being told what to do by the council and the fact that we are unelected and undemocratic doesnt change that fact.We will resist NATO agression by all means and as a precaution PCSO Smith is to patrol the town with a Hi Vis jacket and his hands in his pockets in order to reassure our communities that everything is fine within the town".

Here is a picture of the latest unelected ones assimilated into the great leaders hive.

The one on the far right is Andrew(invisible man) Steen who seems as reluctant to have his picture on the councils website as he does to share his background and beliefs with us the residents of Crowborough East Ward who he thinks he represents .Our other East Ward non representative unelected representatives are Peter (£3million overdraft)Cowie,David(Lib Dum) Shaw and Sandra(twee)Timms none of which have been voted in just like 7/8ths of the council.

Where are the wallys?

2011-08-07T16:38:00.000+01:00

East Ward- Andrew Steen
North Ward- Ronald Reed
West Ward- Quentin Burch Michael Cooke Wendy Scrace.

These are the new unelected members of the council that were so keen to represent the people of the town that they all waited until they could sneak in by the open back door called co option.I expected them to at least make a pretence over representing us by telling us who they are and what their political beliefs are but since being co opted we have silence.I presume they are not allowed to think for themselves or speak without our inglorious leaders say so and until they have completed their NLP brainwashing courtesy of Wealden.I mean how difficult can it be to actually find out what the residents concerns are and articulate those concerns in a democratic manner.Considering the fact that the Town Council is not democratic in any shape or form I suppose the "representing the residents" bit is also a bit beyond their remit these days.
We all need to keep our eyes open and see if we can spot the newly co opted wallys around the town asking the good people of the town what they think on issues before spouting out the inglorious leaders proclamations.

Crowbrough Community Centre Meeting Downfall.

2011-07-11T22:36:00.000+01:00

A peek behind the veil of secrecy that surrounds the community centre project.

Mela run by private company but funded by the taxpayer.

2011-07-08T23:09:00.002+01:00

A Mela is a multi culture piece of bollocks whereby taxpayers money is used to promote foreign cultures and traditions over British culture.
All the Melas in Kent are run by an organisation called cohesion plus based in the Medway towns.Cohesion Plus is actually a private limited company run for profit by a Mr Gurvinder Sandher but you wouldnt know it from their website.This organisation is registered as a private limted company through company house with a company number of 06924474.
Why the Police and local councils are giving a private company lots of taxpayers money I dont know because normally if a company wanted to run an event they would have to pay for it and not expect to be paid by the taxpayer.
To make this story more interesting up until last year the melas were run by a registered charity called North West Kent Racial Equality Council which strangely enough had Mr Gurvinder Sandher as Director.When NWKREC ceased to be last year the profitable mela management side was spun off as a private company with Mr Sandher in charge whilst the rump of the charity was evolved into the Kent Equality Cohesion Council which was run also by the same Mr Sandher.
So we have Mr Sandher creaming off the profits of the Melas into his own company whilst also getting paid by taxpayers money who involuntarily fund KENTECC through money chucked at them by local authorities.To make this story perfect we also know that key members of the now defunct North West Kent Racial Equality Council attended Common Purpose Training.
So to sum up we have taxpayers money being used to pay a private company to run crappy events whilst the profits are creamed off to line Mr Sandhers pocket.The taxpayer is also paying money over to another "partner organisation" through grants paid from local/national government and some of that money also ends up in Mr Sandhers pocket.The taxpayer was also paying out huge sums of money to run the previous charity some of which also found its way into Mr Sandhers pocket at the same time as paying for employees to attend NLP brainwashing session with Mad Middleton.
Melas managed by these organisations are held in many Kent towns so the amounts of taxpayers money we are talking about could potentially be huge.
On the face of it the winner is Mr Sandher whilst the loser is most definitely the taxpayer.So when you see a Mela poster proclaiming that
it is free you should realise that it means they are free to fleece the taxpayers and there isnt anything you can do about it.
I would suggest everyone boycotts Melas unless you want to fund Mr Sandhers

Town Councils new website.

2011-07-07T11:49:00.001+01:00

The Town Council is looking to get their new website up and running by August 2012.The cost is going to be the best part of £4500 for what is likely to be a pretty basic design with I assume no e commerce content.

Normally under such circumstances a notice would be put out for people to tender for the job of designing the site at the best price.

Undemocratic Crowborough Town Council however decides that they are just going to hand out the money to someone who cant even get their own website up and running
.
A strange decision to make until you take into account the fact that George Hedges is well known to the council and particular councillors because he is the head of Wealden Residents Action Group (WRAG) who also by coincidence got their unfinished website designed by the self same George Hedges.Dont get the impression that WRAG represents all the residents of the town as they only represent those that used to be called council house tenants but are now classified as living in social housing.
Given that a huge majority of people within the town are not living in social housing WRAG is really insignificant but that doesnt stop it being handed loads of tax payers money.Isnt socialism in the post democratic age wonderful.
Incidently when I went on to view the whois entry for George Hedges Design it states that it is registered by a private non trading individual.If George Hedges is a non trading individual how can he be paid to design a website for 4500 of taxpayers pounds.

Crowborough Town Council Führerprinzip.

2011-06-21T18:39:00.001+01:00

Just so we know where we stand on the democracy front in Crowborough I am updating the list of Councillors that have been voted in by the electorate. They are ...

•Elizabeth M Fermor
•Beverley A Johnstone

There now follows a list of people who have not been voted in by the electorate and therefore hold the position of councillor with no lawful mandate from the people they fraudulently claim to represent.

•Peter J Cowie
•David M Shaw
•Sandra E Timms
•Philip J Fermor
•George Moss
•Neil H Waller
•Paul Adams
•Matthew Street
•Kay J Moss

So we are in a position whereby out of a total of 11 members only 2 have been voted in.It is a disgrace that our armed forces are fighting in foreign lands to bring democracy and freedom to foreign people when we are being denied the same rights at home.
Democracy is a form of government under which the power to alter the laws and structures of government lies, ultimately, with the citizenry. Under such a system, legislative decisions are made by the people themselves or by representatives who act through the consent of the people, as enforced by elections and the rule of law. Using this as the accepted definition of democracy it is clear that the Town Council is not a democratic organisation and has no legitimacy either morally or literally.Taking Afghanistan,Iraq,Libya etc as examples perhaps the current undemocratic usurpers should be given the ultimatum of leaving peacefully or be removed by force to be replaced by a fully elected democratic body .
We can now see why the council was none to keen to advertise for people to come forward as potential councillors to stand at the recent council elections.They figured that if none comes forward they could remain as councillors without having to face the residents and fight for their votes with the added benefit of installing more "chosen ones" as co opted members that have to meet with the approval of the unelected fuhrer Mayoress.
Read these small extracts about the principles of government during the third reich and you can see alarming similarities with the situation in the town today.
The Führerprinzip [ˈfyːʀɐpʀɪnˌtsiːp] ( listen), German for "leader principle", prescribes the fundamental basis of political authority in the governmental structures of the Third Reich. This principle can be most succinctly understood to mean that "the Führer's word is above all written law" and that governmental policies, decisions, and offices ought to work toward the realization of this end.The Führerprinzip was not invented by the National Socialists. Hermann Graf Keyserling, a German philosopher, was the first to use the term "Führerprinzip". One of Keyserling's central claims was that certain 'gifted individuals' were "born to rule" on the basis of Social Darwinism.
The ideology of the Führerprinzip sees each organization as a hierarchy of leaders, where every leader (Führer, in German) has absolute responsibility in his own area, demands absolute obedience from those below him and answers only to his superiors.

Crowborough Community Centre.

2011-06-14T08:58:00.006+01:00

Details of the Community Centre project are seeping out slowly.Like a leaking sewerage pipe what is seeping out has a bit of a smell about it.

For our £3.5million you would expect a state of the art facility with no corners cut but unfortunately the whole project is being run by people who to quote Alan Sugar just don't have a "bloody clue" so I think our expectations are a bit optimistic to say the least.Alan Hooper who is nominally the Director and Secretary of CCA2010 has admitted all the figures are just guesswork and no one has actually seen the business plan or accounts of the project.It would appear that Hooper is just a useful idiot character whose job is to divert the flak from the people who are actually pulling the strings.When it all goes tits up ,as it will eventually,who do we think will get the blame Alan Hooper or Chantal Wilson who is the Chairman of CCA 2010 and wife of poor old Clive (dunn) Wilson.

So lets see what we are getting for the same price as a boat like the one pictured above.

Lovely wooden roof support beams? -Not a chance they are concrete.

Air conditioning for those hot balmy summer days-Not a chance.Open the windows.

Kitchen on the ground floor-Not a chance.Plating up area only.

Super duper heating system-Not a chance commercial gas fired heating.

Huge Car Park-Nope.A few parking spaces for cripples and staff only.

Theatre suitable for professional shows-No only suitable for amateur productions.

So there you have it the community centre which will be a concrete structure with no luxuries is going to cost the same as a state of the art luxurious boat shown above.I know they cant be compared really because one is huge waste of money and the other is a luxurious boat but its a fair illustration of what £3.5 million excluding VAT will buy.
