<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span lang="EN-US">I
also congratulate Mrs May. She has made
an impressive start. She's an excellent
speaker; she's presented herself as experienced, reliable, hard working, serious,
caring with a sense of duty and public service. Yes, Theresa May is very impressive at talking
the talk. But what about walking the walk?</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span lang="EN-US"><br />She
may look in control, but in her 'distinguished' career at the Home Office, her
failure to control our borders and cut numbers of mass migration let alone
reach her target of tens of thousands meant that as a Remainer she played an invaluable
role in the success of the Brexit campaign that was so dominated by the issue
of freedom of movement. <br /><br />Mrs
May's tough speech to the Police Federation two years ago was certainly
impressive - but recent Home Office figures show t</span></b><b><span style="font-family: "times";">he number of police officers in England
and Wales has fallen by nearly 20,000 since she came to power, police budgets
have faced an overall reduction in real terms of 18%. And the claim that criminal offences have fallen by 6%</span></b><b><span style="font-family: "times";"> compared with last year does not

Black or Minority Ethnic background make up nearly 6% of all officers, far from
representative of our population. And you
will all remember the G4S fiasco at the Olympic Games Her walking the walk
record speaks for itself. <br /><br />Mrs
May has been a long-term high-ranking member of a Cabinet which has favoured
the very rich while impoverishing the poorest and most vulnerable. She has
vowed to change this and only time will tell.
But in a list of the world's richest countries that shows the gap
between rich and poor, the UK is 3rd and is on target to become top of the list
over the next few years.<br /><br />Since
becoming PM Mrs May has said that she wants people to "Take control of
their own lives" I don't know how
she sees this fitting in with her Snoopers' Charter but I suspect this is Conservative
speak for 'you're free to do things for yourselves as you won't be getting any
help from the State. <br /><br />Tory
Peter Hitchin wrote at the weekend:</span></b></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span lang="EN-US"> "Mrs May may come to regret her vain,
boastful behaviour at PMQs when she bragged about how big her party was and how
it was united behind her. These things
can change and very fast and Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty
spirit before a fall. </span></b><b><span lang="EN-US">It may not be very
long before she sits on the Opposition benches</span><span lang="EN-US">". <br /><br />Cllr
Rozenberg requests that the Leader ask the new Government and the Mayor for an
"appropriate financial settlement" for London and to regard Barnet as
a priority. Asking for money is only a
part of the process. It's how you spend
it that counts. </span></b></span><br />

on 16 November was that there should be two members from each of the two main political

politically equal but it was in fact still balanced in favour of the ruling
party.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 200%;">The argument put forward in support of this
recommendation was that in practice there was generally concensus among
members, and also that members could be relied on to use their integrity. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 200%;">However, it seemed that the objections that had been

opportunity to rewrite the rules, why not get it as it should be - with no party
having an advantage?</span></div>

provided generations with free access to reading and learning, the space and
refuge for study, local support and advice that will no longer be available. It brings together those of all ages,
backgrounds, races, faiths, abled and disabled. Libraries are a last vestige of
community, human contact and help that we all need so much and that is being
denied us. I weep at their proposed
disappearance and the derisory manner in which the Tories, who spend
profligately on consultants, Capita overspend, etc, claim they are compelled to
make these small savings in times of austerity at such a massive and
irreplaceable cost to the people who couldn't have expressed their wishes more
vociferously and have been ignored. We
cannot allow the fibre of our community, our libraries, our public services, to be destroyed
for ever on their watch. </span></span></div>

Conference in Manchester was a defining moment.
Having queued as we do every year to get into the hall, young, old and somewhere
in the middle, Party members who were gathered together from all over the UK,
patiently waiting for the hall doors to open, hungry for leadership,
inspiration, we suddenly saw on a screen that the speech had started but the
doors had not opened. The reason? A selected bunch of young people, good camera
fodder, had been led through another door to be placed strategically around
Ed. We were furious. We were told we
could go into side rooms and watch on screen. That wasn't why we had come to
Conference. It was the speech in which Ed famously forgot to mention the deficit.
The beginning of the end. Priority was
spin and image. Perhaps more priority should have been given to practicing the
speech on Ed's hurried return from Scotland. But we didn't know about this omission
until later as we had gone off in disgust to the nearest pub to drown our
sorrows. Tears of despair fell into my slim-line tonic

<h2>
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">The election comes to Temple Fortune</span></h2>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">On a short late lunch
break from interviews and campaigning and tweeting and supporting the Unison strike, I'm writing my first blog
for ages because I just can't manage to tell you in 140 characters about all the exciting
election action that took place this morning in Temple Fortune.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This tiny hamlet in Margaret Thatcher's old
constituency of Finchley and Golders Green is attracting attention as being too
close to call between incumbent, Tory's Mike Freer and challenger, Labour's
Sarah Sackman whose success is taking everyone by storm making the fight too
close to call.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">There we were, me
and Mrs Angry, sipping our Americanos with hot milk on the side, nibbling on a
shared pain au raisin to minimise the calories, being interviewed by a charming French journalist in a cafe in
Temple Fortune, discussing the local candidates, and by total coincidence Mike
Freer walks past with none other than Boris Johnson.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Tories are bringing in the big guns in panic at the real possibility
of losing the constituency. Boris looked to have got his temper under control
since his tantrum on the Marr Show last Sunday when he was flustered by Ed
getting the better of him, making him look like a spoilt brat throwing his
rattle out of the pram. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">This morning I
saw Mike Freer's latest leaflet. It is difficult to see that it has anything
to do with Mike Freer because though it is very big (they have the money to
burn) it is a warning about the SNP who the Tories know ruin their chances of
getting back into power. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">I know that the
major Parties don't like to speculate about what sort of deals may be done if we
end up with a minority government, but I must speak up because there would be a
very different way of doing things and neither the SNP nor other small parties
would wield as much power as they might hope. For example, on the Trident issue, both Labour and the Tories are in favour of its being retained and can vote together - that would be
presumably around 600 votes - so even if the SNP won every seat in Scotland they would have no
influence.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All this Tory scaremongering about our security
is dishonest and a sign of their desperation and in any case, it has been been the Tories who have cut our conventional military forces to the point where military experts have said that we are put at risk. And their inadequate support of our brave servicemen has been appalling. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">Freer has shown
us the limits of his capabilities over the past 5 years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His first election leaflet, considerably
smaller than his latest, produced when he believed he had a walkover, had so
little to say about his achievements that the back of the leaflet was taken up
with a game of Sudoku.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In contrast, Sarah
Sackman is constantly being lauded as future Cabinet material, someone who will
soar. When you see them side by side the difference is immediately obvious. Watch
the video on YouTube of Freer's visit to Archer's Academy school with the
PM.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You have to feel sorry for Freer,
ex-councillor whose greatest achievement was to initiate the privatization of
Barnet's services to Capita who are now running/ruining our services for
Capita's profit on a 10-year contract that is costing us money rather than
saving it (see Mr Reasonable's alarming figures on Twitter @ReasonableNB). The video shows that Freer
said nothing, not engaging, looking awkward, as if he would rather not be there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Watch Sarah anywhere and the crowds eat her
up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She is not only a very bright and
successful human rights barrister, she is charismatic, engaging, listens and acts, and what draws activists in droves to
her as well as voters, is that she is warm, a people's person. That is a characteristic that even
those closest to Freer might find a difficult trait to attribute to him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">Anyway, back to
the morning, and yet more coincidental meetings. After our interview, Mrs A and
I went to do a little food shopping across the road.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A lady who I had never met before wearing a
Sarah Sackman badge saw my enormous Ed Miliband badge and asked if I was a
member of the local Labour Party and then told me she was Sarah Sackman's
mother! We three Labour muses then engaged in animated political discussion,
our trolleys blocking the salad isle and we parted with much hand shaking and
kissing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>On my way home through Temple
Fortune I saw a forlorn looking Barnet Bugle, camera and tripod in hand, having
missed all the action.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">Now for more leafleting
for that much loved Hendon Labour candidate, Andrew Dismore, and then off tonight for an
exciting prospect, another unexpected rise of a Labour candidate in a seemingly
safe Tory seat of Chipping Barnet held by Theresa Villiers of leafy Arkley, being
challenged by the born and bred local girl from the other side of the tracks,
Amy Trevethan, who got a scholarship to Oxford from a local school and came
back home to work, got elected as a Labour Councillor and is known and loved locally
by those of all parties. She is giving Villiers a run for her money and red and
yellow posters abound as never before.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Tonight on stage: Villiers v Trevethan.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Should be good. At Barnet Church (St John the Baptist) at 7.45. Be there
or be very square indeed.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">And I really hope
the Bugle comes across something worthy enough for him to film. </span></div>

<h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Something rotten in the Estate of West Hendon</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">For two weeks at the end of January, a Public Inquiry was held at Hendon Town Hall. </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">The London Borough of Barnet (West Hendon Regeneration Area)
Compulsory Purchase Order No 1 2014. </span></span></span>You can't do better than to read Mrs Angry's two masterful blogs for a detailed report that brings it all to life as only she can: <a href="http://wwwbrokenbarnet.blogspot.co.uk/">http://wwwbrokenbarnet.blogspot.co.uk</a> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">It was a contest between residents of the West Hendon Estate, secure and non-secure tenants and leaseholders, who had no legal representation v Barnet Council, Barratts, Capita & Co aka 'The Partners', represented by a QC and Counsel. The residents had no money for lawyers, but they had a nothing-to-lose passion and anger that instilled them with a determination to fight for the fairness and justice they feel is being denied them. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Their advocates were a phenomenal, articulate leaseholder who is living the regeneration, Ms Jasmin Parsons, and the impressively calm, knowledgeable and dignified and bit of a Public Inquiry veteran, Mr Dan Knowles, an expert surveyor from Sawyer Fielding, who is representing many of the leaseholders in their struggle to get a fair price for their homes in the big buy out. They are, as yet, nowhere near it.</span></span><br />

Counsel, the residents have no legal support and are left to fend for
themselves, at a disadvantage. They have asked for help from the Council
but were told there is no obligation on the Council's part to help and
therefore no help has been given. The Partners' legal adviser has made a
point of the fact that there has been no legal challenge to the planning
permission perhaps suggesting that there was no wish to make a legal challenge,
but the truth is that legal action has been considered but there have never
been adequate resources available to residents to enable them to make such a
challenge. </span></span></span></div>

a unique site of natural beauty and of scientific interest because of the
wildlife it attracts. It was nostalgically described only last week by
Leigh, a resident there for 45 years, who has taken 9 days annual leave to
attend this Inquiry as having been a wonderful place to live, a peaceful haven
away from the world set beside the reservoir with beautiful views from their
windows. </span></span></span></div>

detail with the issue of inadequate provision of affordable housing. I
would just add that the goalposts have changed considerably since Brian
Salinger's promise in 2002 the year in which the ballot was taken and in that
ballot 67% of eligible residents voted and 75% of that 67% were in favour, so
49% of (less than 50%) of residents voted and voted in favour of the
"new" "replacement" homes that were promised with their
rights protected and affordable rents, rates and service charges
guaranteed. That was 12 years ago and 6 years before the original planning
permission was sought and granted. </span></span></span></div>

the Partners to retain the current residents - the regeneration is now a
completely different animal. It is no longer intended as a council estate,
rather a commercial development on which any residents who stay are regarded as
a nuisance and stand in the way of achieving the highest financial gain.
Residents have either left the Estate or will be unable to afford to stay even
if they have tenure. </span></span></span></div>

partners might claim that there has been constant and effective communication
and consultation since then. But when I first became involved in the
regeneration in 2013, I heard the same complaint over and over again from
tenants and from leaseholders - they faced a wall of silence, there was no
information, no communication, only one broken promise after another. They just
wanted to know what was going on. They said they felt they were living in
limbo, not even knowing whether it was worth repairing or refurbishing their
houses, and the Council were not carrying out vital repairs. One woman had been
trying with the help of her son to get a heater mended and for four years
nothing had been done. People felt betrayed. The first thing I
suggested to Barnet Homes was that it would make such a difference if trust was
established with the residents by listening to and talking to them and they
suggested regular surgeries. But when I communicated this to residents they
were sceptical as they said they had had surgeries before and when they asked
questions they were usually told that the answers couldn't be given that day
but that they would get in touch. But no-one would ever get back to them.
Last year I factored some meetings between Barnet Homes and the two groups and
they were very successful, but where Barnet Homes agreed to various requests
they were thwarted when matters had to be approved by the Council.</span></span></span></div>

problem for current residents, most of whom are not going be living on the
estate in any case. What about the new buyers, the future residents,
paying around £450,000 for a two-bedroom flat, the first of whom are due
to move in during the second half of this year. They, too, are being misled and
treated with the same disregard as the current residents. We learned last week
that there are no definite dates for the provision of the promised
infrastructure - school, roads, community centre, etc. Such details seem
to have been omitted from any sales literature. Buying flats for nearly £½m,
thousands of new residents think they will be getting a new road system, GPs
and schools but there is no intention to provide this infrastructure for some
years after they move in, and regarding the promised school Mr Wyld made it
clear that there is no obligation ever to provide a school if the projected so
called "child yield" shows there is no requirement for one and for
the first few years at least there is no more obligation than to provide school
places within a two-mile radius. And the promised Community Centre is to
be built right at the end of the scheme - I think 20 years was mentioned, but I
hope I misheard.</span></span></span></div>

are denied even though they come from many different residents from different

before this Inquiry Barratts were told that on many occasions bread was
delivered noisily at 3am to the portacabins which are used as a canteen.
The representative from Barratt's refused to accept that this was
possible. But I had made this complaint months before on behalf of
residents and nothing had been done about it how could anything be done if the

other regeneration sites. There is a family with three children, one only four
months old forced to transfer to Graham Park, another regeneration site due for
demolition with no information about how long they would be there (this came up
at the Partnership Board meeting the week before the Inquiry). The flat had
broken windows and after two protests that were rejected they were given 2 days
to move or no home. In the end they were given 4 days. Their departure
was filmed and is available on Youtube. Yet a few days later so called
"Guardians", a middle-aged couple I believe, moved into the flat.
These Guardians pay rent and there seem to be different terms and conditions
for different guardians. Some have an unfixed amount of time, some are offered
a 6 month contract/agreement and I've heard of one who have been offered 12
monthst, but then your clients must be able to give you this information.
We only hear of it from residents. Other non-secure tenants have been
transferred to other regeneration sites. Residents also talk of
construction workers who are given empty flats to live in. The decisions of
those with the power of allotting empty flats and decanting non-secure tenants
in what appears to be an inexplicably cavalier fashion needs explanation and
seems to have no regard to the care and wellbeing of current residents.
There needs to be a properly managed system established that is fair and
reasonable and makes the process of having to move home less traumatic. </span></span></span></div>

</h2>
<h3 class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">Skips and
caravans go away!</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;"></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">Once upon a time
in West Hendon there were three skips.
They were brought to my notice by residents who lived beside them in
their roads but wanted them gone. The
skips were full of earth and then filled up and overflowing with any old fly-tipped
rubbish: mattresses, rats in mattresses, old cookers, planks of wood, crisp
papers, cans, half-eaten sandwiches, anything that was no longer wanted. I complained to the Council on behalf of the
residents and my complaint was sent to Street Scene, Highways and then Highways
Enforcement and after lengthy correspondence but with no sign of anything happening
I was rung one day out of the blue by a resident to be told rather thrillingly
that the skips were no longer there. A
frissant of happiness and jubilation was felt by all. </span>
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">Then early one
morning about three weeks later another call from the same resident. "You
couldn't make it up, Councillor Kay, the skips are back in the same places and
they're still full of earth". I
couldn't quite comprehend. And to add to
the problem complaints had been coming in to me that two derelict, abandoned
caravans full of rubbish were parked in different roads in West Hendon and in
spite of residents' complaints to the Council nothing had been done.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">I'd had enough of
emails and their ridiculous platitudes.
I wanted action. I resorted to the telephone. A slight diversion about CCCC (Capita
Coventry Call Centre) answering calls for the London Borough of Barnet. Sadly but not surprisingly little has
changed, except that the operators are very polite even though one came back to
me saying that she was sorry but forgot what department I'd asked for and
please could I tell her again. It happens to us all. It took at least 15 minutes to get through to
someone who could help me. This is
because I first rang the officer whose name and direct line was on my
correspondence and was told I needed a particular person in Highways
Enforcement, but there was no reply from the extension I was given, no
answering machine and no redirection.
This is something Capita assured me would be fixed some months ago at a
Performance and Contract Management Meeting .
If Anna Earnshaw is reading this, please take note. So I had to resort
to the main switchboard. Again a polite
and lovely lady, but didn't know anything about Highways Enforcement. I finally got through to someone in Highways
who took a message for the person in Highways Enforcement who turned out not to
be in Highways Enforcement at all. Nevertheless I did finally speak to her the
next day and what she said was refreshingly honest but the last thing I wanted
to hear.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial;">The punch line is
that there is no facility for the Council or Capita's RE (Highways) to remove either
skips or caravans. They have neither the
equipment nor the storage space. The
officer speculated that the skip company must have removed the skips but
couldn't understand why they had brought them back. But then it is a bit of a
brain teaser. The skip company is
claiming that the skips were stolen and therefore not their responsibility and
so will not pay the fine which presumably they have to do if they admit to
their ownership and remove them. So we'd
better get used to seeing rubbish-filled skips and caravans as a permanent feature
of the Barnet Street Scene because the Council doesn't do skips and neither
does it do caravans.</span></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Today my bright blue once shiny little car was carried off to AE (Automobile Emergency) after an 8-day wait for an appointment. Car reflecting life. Hopefully the delay will not prove fatal. I wish it a speedy recovery after an Arriva bus "didn't see" me and veered into my lane leaving my car with its bowels hanging out for everyone to see. The bus driver tried to pretend it had never happened but I embarrassed him into stopping and facing the music by following the bus, exposed bowels and all, pressing my hooter and not letting go. I'm fine by the way.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">And now I have courtesy wheels to get me around which I hope will keep me safe at night. For the past few nights I have not felt safe walking everywhere in 50% dimmed streetlighting along dangerous, neglected pavements in desperate need of repair that I have long and loudly protested about on behalf of angry residents, and knowing there is a 31% rise in violent crime in the Borough over the past year (2nd highest in London). The Council may tell us that with lights at half power you can't tell the difference but we're not daft. Just hope the car withstands the deep ruts in the roads with the exception of course of that royally-named recipient of a huge part of the highways budget, Princess Park Avenue. Yes, you've guessed. I live in the Tory-Capita Borough of Barnet: Barnet in the dark, Barnet on the cheap.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I'm off to strike up a fun, short-term relationship with the temporary car. In the words of Irving Berlin, "No strings and no connections, no ties for my affections, I'm fancy free and free for anything fancy." </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">And if any Arriva bus drivers are reading this, please stay in your own lane and do look out of your window. Arriva! Arriva! </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Have a great weekend everyone. </span></span></span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09543790514727706506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8307884921800598129.post-69800980817260167862014-12-11T02:49:00.000+00:002018-02-05T18:30:12.391+00:00MORE LEGAL GAFFES COME TO LIGHT IN DISFUNCTIONAL BARNET<style>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">Barnet's
Constitution, Ethics and Probity Committee (aka CEPC pronounced SEPS) met on 25
November. It is a committee without razzmatazz; it isn't filmed; the public gallery
is usually empty, though this has nothing to do with the Conservatives'
penchant for private meetings behind closed doors, but rather that it is
considered to be unutterably boring down to its very name. But allow me to
recommend it to you, not merely because I am lucky enough to be a Member, but
because it lies at the very heart of the Council. Its role is to continually
scrutinize, test and amend the rule book: the procedure, the protocol of how
the Council operates that is the Barnet Constitution.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">At
the first CEPC meeting of this administration in August, and my first meeting
as a Member of the Committee, the Conservative Chair, Cllr John Marshall
expressed the hope that the committee would run on consensus, but as I ventured
to ask, doesn't there have to be agreement in order to have consensus? </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">There
were some fundamental political issues on the agenda last week: fairness,
democracy, transparency (Blog 2). And there were shock revelations of yet more
incorrect advice from the former Monitoring Officer and the Council's private
lawyers, HB Public Law that led to the Council acting in contravention of its
own Constitution when councillors appeared before the Council's disciplinary
committee, the Leaders' Panel. So as you weren't there and no video exists on
Youtube, in the cause of transparency in which I firmly believe, here is what
happened: the business and how it turned out - a tale in two blogs.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">If
you remember, the expert local government lawyer, Claer Lloyd-Jones, wrote in
her recent independent report about Barnet of 14 September 2014: </span><span style="font-family: "times";"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">o
There is no-one who understands local government law in depth at Barnet. Barnet
employs no lawyers.</span><span style="font-family: "times";"><br />
</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">o
There are staff in key roles in the Governance structure in Barnet who are
inexperienced in governance matters. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">Ms
Lloyd-Jones' report explains that Barnet's Monitoring Officer is also
responsible for Legal Services provided by the private company HB Public Law
that Barnet shares with Harrow, and who Tory Council Leader, Richard
Cornelius can be seen waxing lyrical about on old Youtube footage. HB
Public Law did not escape criticism in Ms Lloyd-Jones report.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">Blunders in
Governance procedure that resulted from the stumbling in the dark of a legally
unqualified, inexperienced Monitoring Officer relying on a private, shared,
remote, hands-off, legal service continue to pop up to plague the Council and
this was evident at the CEPC meeting. </span><span style="font-family: "times";"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">In response
to a Members' Item from Labour Group Leader, Alison Moore, in which she
proposed in the cause of fairness that the Constitution be amended to:
"Ensure that any councillor subject to a complaint under the Code of
Conduct is allowed access to the Independent Person (an independent adviser who
examines the evidence and sits on the Panel but does not vote) throughout the
process" there came a shocking revelation, nothing new at a Barnet
meeting.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">Be<span style="color: black;">fore any discussion or vote could take place on Alison
Moore's amendment, John Marshall made a rather sheepish announcement. He had
been informed, he said, by new Interim Monitoring Officer, Peter Large, that no
amendment was necessary because the two councillors who have recently come
before the Leaders' Panel, one Conservative, one Labour, were denied their
Constitutional rights of access to an independent advisor because Barnet
Governance and HB Public Law wrongly advised that the councillors did not have
that right. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">So
once again, the Council had been given the wrong legal advice by Barnet
Governance and their supporting lawyers and had acted in contravention of the
Constitution. Cllr Marshall merely said in explanation: "It was a mistake
and I apologise, but it wasn't me", smiling as if he were cracking a
joke. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">And
this wasn't all. Conservative Councillor, Joan Scannell repeated the opinion
expressed at the Panel's hearing by the Independent Person that the case
against the Labour Councillor should never have been brought before the Panel
as there was no case to answer and she added that it was a great pity that this
had happened. Yet another found-to-be-wanting decision of Maryellen Salter who
advised that the complaint should go ahead, but on the day the hearing was
halted almost as soon as it began. The Conservatives deftly sweep these matters
under the carpet, but this should not be allowed. By being in denial they are
putting the Council and the Borough, in fact all of us, at risk and make it
impossible to mend the past in order to create an honourable future. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">For a law
firm to fail to sign an Agreement and for a Council not to ensure that it is
signed seems to me to indicate how sloppy and unsafe practice has been, and
also how unmonitored. No signed obligation or liability on behalf of HB Public
Law to the Council existed to cover these additional duties which were being
carried out in practice. It was this law firm that was advising the Barnet
Monitoring Officer. The indication is that the Agreement was signed by Barnet
but not by Harrow. So was it the case that having signed the Agreement, Salter
went on leave never to return leaving no one in Barnet to get the Agreement signed by
HB Public Law as there was no-one acting as in-house Monitoring Officer.
Peter Large arrived without announcement around two week's later as "interim legal and governance adviser"
and was appointed Interim Monitoring Officer after
another two weeks on the day of Salter's departure. Even in the absence
of a Barnet Monitoring Officer, HB Public Law could have taken the initiative
to countersign the form but it appears that for a while those in charge were
content for nothing to be done. Who was to blame for this, as it could not have
been the absent Salter. <u>Was </u>there no procedure at Barnet by which the
Monitoring Officer's role was managed in the absence of a Monitoring Officer?
Has the Agreement now been signed, and if so, when? </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">Cornelius makes it clear in a written answer to Council that Salter carried out
no work for the Council from 12 September to 9 October. So who, if anyone, was carrying out the
day-to-day in-house legal duties in Barnet in that time? <b> </b></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">It
was only when I asked at another meeting who had been acting on Salter's behalf
that I was told by the CEO that Jessica Farmer, Head of Legal Practice at HB
Public Law "had been nominated by Salter". </span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">There
are so many unanswered questions and those in charge refuse to take
responsibility for allowing this untenable regime to continue unchecked for so
long. How many more wrong decisions based on wrong advice is going to be discovered
that puts the Council at risk and exposes it to challenge and compensation?
Shouldn't all advice given during this period be challenged and tested? At
Council I asked that this should happen. Cllr Cornelius replied:</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">There is no
question of a personal attack from me but rather a legitimate and justified
challenge of advice given to and acted upon by the Council when Salter was in
post. It is rather the action to remove Salter from her post that can be seen
as an attack from those who decided that she should take the rap. Yet they seem to have no intention of parting company with HB Public Law who were there to provide Salter
with legal advice and failed miserably in the disastrous case of committee proportionality.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial";">It is clear from the
report that legal advice was not always available and Barnet expressed
concern about the remoteness of HB Public Law (Report: 4.16). And when advice
was not forthcoming the Monitoring Officer went ahead without it, and even when
it was forthcoming she was left to interpret it in spite of her lack of legal
knowledge. The report states that "the Monitoring Officer is also
responsible for Legal Services provided by HBPL" (4.12). She couldn't
really win.</span></span></div>

we go from here? </span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: red; font-family: "arial";"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial";">Richard Cornelius has said Ms Lloyd-Jones’ report was “fair
enough” and it was now “a question of how we move forward”.<span style="color: red;"> </span><span style="color: black;">As we have seen, just
one instance of wrong legal advice can be catastrophic. </span>I<span style="color: black;">nterim Monitoring Officer, Peter Large, for whom Barnet
is a 2-day-a-week add-on to his busy full-time </span></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">job
at Westminster Council is now in place for an indefinite period. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">A permanent
appointment will be the task of the Remunerations Committee.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "times";"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">Large was
appointed solely by the CEO in consultation with Richard Cornelius which is
their constitutional right but then they were at the top of the responsibility
chain during this whole period and it seems they were perfectly satisfied for
legal matters in Barnet to be dealt with on a wing and a song.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">And after all
that has happened, after Ms Lloyd-Jones has said that most local authorities
appoint a lawyer as Monitoring Officer, Richard Cornelius has refused Labour's
request that there will be a requirement for the next Monitoring Officer to be
legally qualified. </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "arial";"><span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial";">Salter's own recruitment
in 2013 has been the subject of discussion as it appears she was the only
person to be interviewed for the post of Monitoring Officer. She is an Auditor
but took over from an in-house lawyer with years of experience of Barnet
Council yet there was no requirement for legal qualification or experience in
the job description though there was for an auditor. </span></span>But then another senior Conservative, Councillor Anthony
Finn, has justified Cornelius's decision by insisting that qualifications are
unnecessary as "all that is needed is a clear head". Would you
put the clearest-headed dentist in charge of brain surgery? But then this is
the man who, like his Tory colleagues at the CEPS meeting, voted in favour of unconstitutional meetings on budget cuts being held in private because residents would be scared when matters such as switching off street lights
were discussed. </span></span></div>

let us return to the two councillors who are victims of all this chaos, those who
were denied their right of access to an independent person because of a dysfunctional
system. Do these councillors get an official apology? Are they to be
compensated in any way? Will they demand compensation and of what
kind? How long has the Council known that this advice was wrong? It
appears the two councillors have not been informed of the injustice done to them. </span><span style="font-family: "times";"></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial";">And this error may never

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">Anna Earnshaw (Commercial Director of Capita): if you are reading this then please note what life is really like in the hell that is Capita Barnet. </span> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">CAPITA BARNET - LIFE ON THE CHEAP AND NASTY </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Last week my Council iPad was taken away by IT support and "reconfigured", and yesterday afternoon at 3pm it was returned to me with my emails and texts working for the first time for weeks and I took it out to a meeting and used it and in that short time began to think fondly of it and appreciate its worth. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Today? No texts. No email. "The connection to the server failed" (one of Capita's fave generic messages since IT was rolled out to councillors at the beginning of June, the server apparently being in Spring Park Exchange which could be anywhere in the world.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">To do my job as a councillor I need a phone to make and receive calls and a laptop on which to write documents. Both need to receive emails and hopefully to synch. And I need a printer. And perhaps this is the moment to remind us all that Capita claim, and they claim loudly, that they are experts at providing IT services as they do about call centre services. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">What did councillors received from Capita after the elections 6 months ago, and I'm talking about new councillors who were the first to be supplied with IT equipment by Capita? We got one piece of equipment only - an iPad on which we couldn't make or receive phone calls or type documents. There was no Word app only a very primitive application called "Pages" which meant that we could not produce documents or read or open Word documents that were emailed to us. We were promised Word within a month, but we still don't have it. But not to worry. Emails didn't work in any case for some time. The server was moved out of Barnet to another location, didn't work and had to be moved back. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Capita's failures can have serious consequences on residents' lives. My first casework was for a family who came to see me within days of being evicted from their home and their children taken into care. They were a warm, loving family and the children were smiling and happy unaware of what might lie ahead. It was a Saturday and there was nothing I could do until Monday morning, but during the weekend I took advice and obtained the contact details I required. Unfortunately it meant my having to ring Barnet Council. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I had direct line numbers but repeatedly got the standard: "You have dialled incorrectly, please try again", in other words all the lines are busy. (Capita cut the number of lines by 25% when they took over the service.) I was trying to get through to Barnet Homes so I Googled to see if there were alternative numbers. I tried them all including the 24 hour emergency number for residents. All numbers were "incorrect'!! I didn't want to email because I wanted to speak as soon as possible and in any case my email was only working sporadically and I couldn't be sure that a message would get through. After about three hours I tried the main switchboard of the Council again and got through and was told by a very friendly operator that the dialled incorrectly message just meant that all the lines were busy. I asked why the message didn't say "all the lines are busy" and the operator replied that it did seem silly, didn't it? She also added what so many operators have said to me on so many calls over so many months, that they were having problems with the lines that day. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I had finally got through to Barnet Homes and they were helpful as ever and gave me the contact who would be able to deal with the eviction. Another helpful person said he would send me the necessary referral form to complete and return as soon as possible and he would deal with everything immediately and do everything he could help with the family. All good, you'd think. But you might have forgotten that I was having to rely on Capita. The form arrived by the end of the afternoon but I couldn't open it. It was in Word and I had no word on my iPad. I forwarded the form to my personal laptop but because it was not possible to open it on my iPad it would not open. I tried to print the form unopened so that I could fill it in and scan it back on to the Council laptop. No luck. I couldn't ring the office until the next morning. I rang and asked if I could come down to wherever they were and complete the form but they emailed it to my personal email. By then more than a day in addition to the weekend had been wasted. Time was short but everything was set in motion and proceeded no thanks to Capita.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">From the beginning, posing as IT experts, Capita misjudged what equipment would be appropriate for our job, in fact they got it entirely wrong. And they considerably underestimated how long it would take to set up the Council's IT on the server and moved the IT staff together with its Project Manager to another job much too soon. After a while - it was weeks - I was contacted by phone (my personal mobile) by a very helpful IT person who talked me through setting up my iPad and it actually logged in. I asked for his contact details so I could contact this great person again. "Oh, I'm a contractor. I'm only here temporarily to help sort things out so you'd better contact your usual support team if you need help." So here were extra costs. And just a minor error, but another extra expense and a careless error, we were all given covers for our iPads that were the wrong size. Replacements were ordered, expensive leather ones, but I found it was unusable so I bought myself a decent, simple one for £10 that works. And all this additional equipment and contractors means additional expense to us due to Capita's incompetence.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Then I was told that if I wanted one I could have a phone but I had to ask for one. I hurried to do so knowing that other councillors who were not new had Blackberries. But when I received my phone it was not a smart phone, but a primitive fin-de-siecle Argos bargain basement model that had no facility for emails, internet, etc. I continued to use my own phone. Then I was told I could have a blackberry and a laptop if I asked for them. I asked for them and they arrived. More equipment, more cost.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Have you spotted anything wrong? I now have an iPad, a Blackberry and a PC laptop. What I needed was an iphone and an apple lap top - compatible, right for the job, and would synch perfectly. The iPad is a very cool adjunct but not essential. I get a good deal with Apple as an individual customer: free phone, unlimited free national calls, mobile calls, unlimited texts, so I'm sure a deal could have been negotiated for free phones and a good deal for 60 people. It has all been such a mess. And what is more, I can't remember a time when the phone, iPad and laptop have worked at the same time. If on one day I can somehow access my Council emails and contacts I feel pretty lucky. My laptop necessitated a home visit yet again last week. That means staying in and taking a couple of hours out of the day. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">If we got service like this in our personal lives we would blow the company out of the water. There can be no excuse, though there are plenty from Capita, for this sort of dire performance. Tory Barnet is run from anywhere but Barnet with profits for Capita a priority and a cheap and nasty service to its residents and workers while costing us fortune.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Capita 999:
We aim to fail: Capita claims 92% of Barnet targets met</span> </b></span></span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Barnet's Performance and Contract
Management Committee met on Tuesday, 11 November. I was on the Committee that
night and on the Agenda was Capita's performance report on their phone lines. Capita
Commercial Director, Anna Earnshaw, who announced that she reads my blog, said
she regretted my experiences, but that they must be very rare.
She spoke of Capita's achievements: 92%
of their targets met, 23 out of the 25 performance targets achieved (Capita's own figures), and that
only two indicators had missed the target: one being a decrease of calls
answered by the contact centre within 20 seconds from 78.48% to 78.1%
increasing the gap from the 80% target (that's 20% accepted failure by the
way).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Chris Naylor, Barnet's Chief
Operating Officer, backed her up: "I'm confident that we've got the right
arrangement in place". This was after I had given him several examples of my own bad experiences and those of others. He came up with the same old excuses: inherited problems, teething troubles. He seemed to have overlooked that Capita's inheritance included an extra 25% of lines they have since discarded to cut
their costs.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">When my future trip to Coventry was
mentioned, the Chair of the Committee, Tory Cllr Anthony Finn, perked up and in
the voice of an indulgent grandfather offering a treat proposed that a mini-bus
should be hired for a trip to Coventry for everyone to have a lovely day out. But
then he confessed, though in the voice of one who wasn't that worried about it
and felt reassured that it would all come right in the end, that he, too, had had problems phoning
the Council, and had found that even when operators answered in good time, he
often didn't get put through to the person he wanted as there was a lack of
knowledge of the identity of staff and what services were offered by different
departments. Thank goodness. At last Capita
might stop treating me as if I had been the unlucky victim of a rare bad
experience and a bit of a complainer. The
old teething problems excuse emerged again together with the assurance that
everything was in hand and being dealt with. It was a question of training and
there were two dedicated staff who listened to recordings of calls to identify
problems. Well whatever they are doing it isn't working. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">This meeting was on 11
November. Back on 13 January, nearly a
year ago, at a similar meeting, Tory Cllr Brian Salinger, a man who speaks his
mind, complained about the lack of knowledge of the operators at the call
centre. He had asked to be put through
to the Leader's office. The operator had no idea what he was talking
about. Cllr Salinger said it was a
matter of training. So what has happened
over the past year with training and monitoring? Absolutely nothing. The faults are the same, as are the excuses. Performance is failing but Capita are unable
to come up with a cure. They claim to be the experts but serve us like incompetent amateurs,
taking pots of our money while deserving only their already well-earned
epithet, Crapita. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Naylor then moved into smoke and
mirror mode to divert our attention from the 'f'-word: failure. It's not the operators
who are at fault, but when they transfer calls to the relevant people (does
this really ever happen?) those people might have stepped out of their office and
may not have switched on their answering machines so their phone would be bound to ring
unanswered. This, he claimed, must be rectified. No, I said, that has nothing to do with it.
The telephone operators have no idea who anyone is or which department does
what. This is the problem, always has been, and undoubtedly if they haven't
been able to sort it out for a year, always will be. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">As the redoubtable Mr Reasonable
asked in a recent tweet: "<span lang="EN-US">Why are Barnet
Conservatives happy to tolerate such dismal performance?" And why indeed
are they? But then it always comes back
to the question of why they tied us into the Capita contract for ten years in the first place
knowing of Capita's disastrous record and that there were no guarantees of
saving money. It hasn't
taken long to reveal itself as the disaster it is, but not to worry, only 9
years to go if the option isn't taken up to extend for a further five. Will Capita be in existence that long? Will
the London Borough of Barnet survive after Capita has had its way with it?</span></span></div>

Council you dial 020 8359 2000. The
calls are answered in a Capita call centre in Coventry. A few days after I made
the call which is the subject of my last two blogs and now in the middle of an
overblown, box-ticking investigation, I had reason to phone the Council again. I needed to get through to the IT support for
Councillors extension which was on the contacts of my Capita phone that wasn't
working. A bit like when your Broadband
goes down and you are told on the phone that you can fix things by going to
their website, when your problem is that you can't access the internet. I couldn't conjure up the extension number in
my mind though it had been necessary to ring it many times to report one IT
problem after another. But you get to
the point when the constant problems and breakdowns just wear you down, you can
no longer be bothered to spend endless time on reporting, waiting in for someone
to come and fix things only for things to break down again. But it got to the stage when it was impossible
for me to do any work that involved the Capita Council IT system. So I dialed the main switchboard to get
through to the extension and once again met with a service that is not fit for
purpose, that is failing the people of Barnet. </span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span></span>

I gave the names of the two people in the team. The operator said that I
needed Information Technology and before I could say another word turned on the
music and I waited. I'm afraid after my
past experiences I couldn't resist counting how many rings it would take to get
through. I wrote down a number for each
ring. This is what Capita has driven me
to. The phone rang 44 times and then......
the line went dead. </span></span></span></div>

I rang straight away to see what would happen and received the message:
"You have dialed incorrectly, please try again", ie the Capita enigma
code for lines being overloaded or in this case "having problems",
and Capita was putting the blame on me!
Revelation. If they said all
lines were busy it would be their fault. </span></span></span></div>

I rang again a few minutes later.
This was a challenge and I needed IT support for goodness sake. I got
through to the recorded message of the "service desk" with options to
log a call, check on the status of an existing call, etc. I chose the first just to get through. I succeeded.
"Good morning, Barnet Service Desk". The phone went dead!!!!</span></span></span></div>

Worn down, desperate, angry, but not giving up, having wasted so much of
my precious time and unable to do my work on behalf of West Hendon residents
because of my IT problems, I waited for half an hour, busying myself to pass
the time, and rang the service desk again, a broken woman. The first option was answered by Peter. He knew what both he and I were talking
about!! There was, indeed, an IT support
line for Councillors. I knew I hadn't
made it up. I'd had to ring them often
enough! And as soon as he spoke the
number I recognized it and rejoiced. </span></span></span></div>

has been resolved since they first took over the running of the service and
they are failing us every day. Their
excuses are pathetic. Failures are
always blamed on a "temporary problem", but the problems began from
the very first day, all recorded on Twitter by those who didn't then realise
that the message: "This number is unrecognized" like " you have dialed
incorrectly" means that lines are overloaded and phones are not being
answered. And nothing has changed. </span></span></span></div>

was already going horribly wrong claiming that it was not urgent. Finn had to be strongly persuaded by the Labour
lead on the committee, Cllr Geof Cook before he reluctantly agreed. Capita presented a report of feeble excuses
and Councillor Finn summed up with a big smile of satisfaction saying that he
was confident having been reassured by Capita that everything would be
"hunky dory" in two weeks' time.

number of one of the two excellent permanent staff, who are thankfully left in place

this is because it was registered as a "Member Complaint". Would I

who have endless trouble every day contacting Barnet Council by phone? It has
involved 7 Capita flunkies, a 'thorough' investigation after listening to a
recording of the call and action points to improve the service that put into
question the whole system.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have

to Coventry to see how the call centre system works, though I think he works in
Southampton judging by his email address. But this turned out to be some time in

meet and chat and go to Coventry so I can raise all my complaints both as a
resident and a Councillor, of the unacceptable performance of the Barnet call
centre since the day Capita took over until today. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>From the start Capita cut the number of lines
by 25% which causes the whole service to regularly break down in overload, and
we are served by inadequately trained staff who have no idea who anyone is,
what they do or the services offered. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And Capita's way of dealing with the failure
of services including IT and wages is to constantly claim that problems are temporary
glitches or teething problems that have either been resolved or are in hand and about to be resolved. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If an issue can
be marked as resolved whether or not this is the case, then the same issue is
begun again as a new issue, the box is ticked and Capita are off the hook. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to go to Coventry to see Capita operating
as Barnet far from Barnet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">Interesting what has come out of the
telephone call that began with the cackle of a Capita telephone operator who didn't
know who Andrew Nathan, Head of Governance was. Well she couldn't know everyone, could
she? Would Jonathan Nathan do, just this
time? Um, 'fraid not. That
isn't to say I wasn't curious to know who Jonathan was, but no such name
appears on the internal email list. But then people seem to be disappearing fast from
Barnet Council's address book these days and it isn't necessarily due to the
appalling IT service we get from Capita, but don't get me started on that. You may well find some of them shipped out by Capita to places like Blackburn or Coventry or Northern Ireland or anywhere but Barnet while others are made redundant. Perhaps
Jonathan was in post on the 5th but has now stepped down in the current mode of mutual consent. </span></span></span>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">The reason for my call was a follow-up to
an email I sent on 5 October asking the Monitoring Officer, or rather former Monitoring
Officer since yesterday, for some information.
I received an out-of-office reply. She was out of the office from 12 September, recommended contacts for assistants who could direct urgent matters to the right department during
her absence and offered to respond to anything that was not urgent on her
return. There was no return date. </span><span lang="EN-US"> But there is nothing
in her message to suggest that she was not in post. On the contrary. Then on</span><span lang="EN-US"> 10 October the Barnet CEO announced that the Monitoring Officer had left the job on the previous day 'by mutual consent'. Maybe it went: "We'd like you to leave tomorrow". "Oh, OK, tomorrow's good for me, that would be lovely."</span></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Found innocent of all breaches of conduct on 3 September by the Leaders' Panel made up
of 3 Tories and 2 Labour, by his own description at times Barnet Tory
Mayor and Councillor and at others landlord, Hugh Rayner reaches into
his inside pocket. A handkerchief to wipe away the sweat of the ordeal
from his brow? A mobile phone to spread the wonderful news? Neither.
It's a thank you speech for letting him off scot free written in
advance. How could he possibly have guessed the result? He must be
psychic.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">What
sort of country do we live in where even the Home Secretary can't get
rid of a Police and Crime Commissioner who knew about but ignored the
horrific child sex exploitation that went on when he was Head of
Children's Services and sat on the Authority of South Yorkshire Police
and ran his campaign "with a focus on local neighbourhood police"? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">
Shaun Wright has also held the offices of councillor, magistrate,
school governor and more. He was elected as Police and Crime Com<span class="text_exposed_show">missioner
on a 14.5% turnout (so over 85% did not vote at all). Why would anyone
want to vote anyone into office in these strange times that just get
stranger? </span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
<span style="font-size: large;"> My heart goes
out to those tragic young people treated without humanity, without
anyone caring or protecting them. And it is so dark to see Wright on TV
without remorse, clinging on to his job, claiming that he can be
trusted.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">"THERE WILL BE NO STONE UNTURNED" SAYS PM. REALLY?</span></h2>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"There will be no stone unturned", declares David Cameron, but based on past experience it's not easy for the public to trust the government to deal transparently or honestly with the historic child abuse allegations that have struggled to be heard for some time to no avail. After all the time and money that was spent on Leveson, all the evidence taken, the report written, Cameron pledged that he would implement the report if it was not "bonkers". Who was going to make that judgement? JK Rowling wrote that she gave evidence to the enquiry in good faith and felt "duped and angry" by the Prime Minister's response, and victims refused to meet the Culture Secretary, speaking of a sense of "betrayal".<br /><br />Cameron has repeatedly evaded Chris Bryant's requests at PMQs to produce email and text correspondence between himself and Rebekka Brooks & Andy Coulson getting away with contemptuous, petulant answers including the now famous: "I'm not going to answer his questions until he apologizes". Here's the video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUX9LvYlAps">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUX9LvYlAps</a> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As Chris Bryant asked in the House: "Is there one rule for the PM and one for the rest of us?" <br /><br />The only way I can see that this matter has a chance of being dealt with openly and honestly is for the victims to have the courage - and it will take enormous courage - to come forward and speak to the police and we have to hope they will be heard after all these years. </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">If there is a case to answer they deserve justice and closure and the protection of those responsible should not be the priority. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />Why have vital documents disappeared? Why was the whole matter brushed under the carpet at the time? Lord Tebbit has commented that things were different in the 80s but has anything really changed? We must all have the truth whatever it is, however shocking the fallout may turn out to be. There must be a fair and just outcome. I hope that won't be denied us.</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09543790514727706506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8307884921800598129.post-20815457889689610932014-06-07T01:21:00.001+01:002014-10-15T00:50:43.614+01:00He who MUST be obeyed: A Hugh and Cry<style>

<h2 class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: x-large;">He Who MUST Be Obeyed:
A Hugh and Cry</span></h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">The new Mayor of Barnet, Hugh Rayner, has a temper. It can accelerate uncontrollably from 0 to 120
in a matter of seconds as he demonstrated at the Annual Council meeting last Monday at
Hendon Town Hall. Veteran Councillors said
they had never seen a meeting like it. As on St Crispin's Day, those who were
not there shall think themselves accursed they missed it all. It was the meeting at which Hugh became Mayor of Barnet. When Hugh threw a tantrum, demanding the respect
that was being denied him, he did so like a power-crazed sergeant major on the
parade field. Hugh is indeed an erstwhile military man who apparently served his country in the warehouse at RAF Hendon. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">Monday night was to be
ceremonial, Hugh's night of mayoral triumph, charmingly hosting a lavish bash for
Councillors and guests at the taxpayers' expense. He took his seat for the first time as mayor as
I took my seat for the first time in the Council Chamber. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">I had supposed that joining
the ranks of the Council would mean an end to my days of unseemly heckling from
the public gallery. But Tory antics and Hugh's impotent, yet fascinatingly
comic struggle to control the meeting ensured that my heckling days were far from
over. Old habits die hard. You'd heckle
too if it happened to you.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: large;">Oh how the Tories had
been plotting and planning. Used to working
with a substantial majority which now is expected to reduce to only one after the
delayed election in Colindale on 26 June, they are running scared. And Barnet now has a newly-established
Committee System which spreads power much wider and will allow the opposition
more influence than the previous Cabinet system by which just ten members of
the ruling party had all the power. The
Tories have never had it so bad.</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">The fun began a few
moments before kick-off when the Leader of the Labour Group, Alison Moore, came
into the room to tell us that the Tories were going to stop our expenses if we
didn't agree to pair with them. Allow me to explain asap that this wasn't an improper suggestion - well actually it was,
but political rather than sexual. Propositioned so charmingly how could we refuse? But we did
- and ended up just a little bit poorer than when we'd arrived - at least financially
but not where our integrity is concerned.</span></span></div>

</style>
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">So the
first skirmish was played out, and the two sides entered the Chamber at
loggerheads. </span>
It was
then that I had my first glimpse of the Tories preening themselves in their ceremonial
robes. How I did chuckle, but not for
long </span></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-size: large;">So back to Hugh trying out his throne for size all decked out in Mayoral splendour, fur-trimmed town cryer costume, (he'd definitely pass the
audition) with white cravat frothing at his throat, Hugh almost frothing at the mouth. The Chamber doors burst open to admit officers run ragged, distributing papers literally
hot off the press, full of errors, omissions, not enough to go round initially,
can we share one between two. It has to
be deduced that the Tories had submitted their information immediately prior to
the meeting. The first sheets to arrive showed only the Tory committee members. The officers rushed out of the Chamber and returned with revised lists showing both Tories and Labour. The Tories demanded a division based on these papers to
ratify the membership of Council committees. Labour objected, pointing out some
of the obvious errors that existed on the papers, and complaining that they had had no time to read the papers but the Tories inevitably won a vote
to proceed and the committees were agreed en bloc, mistakes and all. The furious protest from the opposition and
from the public gallery was ear-splitting and drove Hugh into a frenzied rant demanding silence and respect for his office. Was this the same Hugh who when merely in the ranks never lost an opportunity
to chatter and laugh with his neighbour and fellow-Councillor in Hale Ward, Tom
Davey, while others were speaking in Council - in particular,
the oppostion? </span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">And for the next
Tory move Cllr Anthony Finn requested that a future Council meeting be changed
to a date that coincides with the Labour Party Conference in September. Pandemonium.
Shouts of "outrageous", "shameful" even from the
most timid of those in attendance. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">There is a convention,
an understanding, both in Parliament and local government that the diary is
kept free during the three weeks of annual conference for the three major
parties. </span><span lang="EN-US">But Hugh pushed ahead with
determination: "This has been moved. Agreed?" expecting to win
on a nod. Roars of protest rang out from
the opposition and from the gallery while </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">the buffet lay untouched in Committee
Room 2. Surely tonight was about fun and frolics.
Of course there was no thought that the food would be better taken to
the local foodbank for those less fortunate, those who were paying for this
feast. But the fun had to wait a while longer. </span></span>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">There was a vote:
For, Against, Against, For, then the impeccably well-mannered Labour Cllr
Arjun Mittra called out in disgust: "Against....against this farce". Applause, cheers from ABTT (anyone but the Tories). Hugh went
completely berserk. Cllr Mittra had overstepped the mark and he told him so. Others followed suit. But I'll let you watch it all for yourself on this <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2CO7UX1XSY&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">video</a></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2CO7UX1XSY&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2CO7UX1XSY&feature=youtu.be </a></span> It's so much better when you can see it as it happened. But
the Tories had the numbers and won the vote. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-US">We boycotted the reception. We left the
web, we left the room and hurried down to Camelot, or rather the Greyhound and
an honest pint and a packet of crisps - in my case, throwing caution to the
wind, a double slim-line tonic with ice and lemon. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Georgia;">If
I were a new Tory Councillor I'd seriously be considering the cross-benches. The Battle of Barnet is in full swing and
it's not pretty. All that time and effort wasted on political wrangling when we
should be out there serving the people of Barnet. So my first Council meeting
as a Councillor. A baptism of fire.
Ouch! And Mr Mayor, perhaps you should take the advice given to you
from the public gallery amid the jeers on Monday night: Act as if you're in a democracy
rather than a dictatorship". And I
believe there is a training course at the Town Hall in the next few days on "Chairing Skills". You may wish to enrol. Hale Caesar. </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Labour just failed to win the Council on
the 22nd May in spite of substantial gains, but it is so close that the Tories
are no longer going to have it all their way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>For those old enough to remember, Harold Wilson's first administration comes
to mind when it was so close that an MP might be brought to vote into the House
of Commons on a hospital bed still attached to a saline drip.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Tories are going to have to have every
one of their Councillors present every time. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Then the Council will be run in a different
way moving from the Cabinet System where just ten Councillors from the ruling
party made all the decisions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That was true of the last Tory Council's
decision to privatize Barnet services, signing us all up for 10 years. The
Council is changing to a Committee System that is new to everyone and works in
a more inclusive way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">And there is the new balance of power.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The election in the safe Labour seat, Colindale,
which will take place on 26 June, delayed due to the sad death of the Green
candidate, is likely to result in a Council with only two seats between the two major parties.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It will be very
different. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Tonight I will attend my first Council
event since the election - the Annual meeting at which all the newly-elected
Councillors gather and the Mayor is appointed for the year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Conservative Councillors choose to wear
ceremonial robes. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"></span>Labour Councillors choose
to sport a single red rose.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And so we run
out of the tunnel in our own distinctive kits to begin a whole new ball game, from captain to rookie. Let
the people of Barnet referee. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">BANKING ON A SHOEBOX</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">For years I've considered removing my
money from the bank and keeping it in a shoebox under the floorboards.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I've sat in my room looking around for a
brilliantly original hiding place but always come to the conclusion that no
such place exists.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But apart from the convenience of a card what do banks do for me? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Charges for everything, negligible interest, you
lose anything over £85,000 if the bank suddenly collapses (I'm thinking of
others here), and there are the constant mistakes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">When I bought a car from a friend and
transferred the money to her account, the bank decided to transfer the payment again
and wiped out my account.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My panic was
justified. It wasn't the bank's responsibility to get back the second payment
it was mine and I was supposed to contact the recipient to ask them to return
the money but it was up to them whether or not they gave it back! The bank
could take no action. Fortunately it was a friend and she returned the money
immediately, but this may not have been the case. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>However, the bank very kindly said they would
waive the charge for my going over my overdraft limit - due to their
mistake!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How much better to get the
cash from under the floorboards, put it in an envelope and deliver it
personally and safely to my friend. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Stress
free. Easy. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">And now we are told the taxman can take
money out of your account, your ISA, whatever he chooses without notice,
without asking your permission, if you owe him more than £1,000.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And if the taxman makes a mistake he is never
responsible so anything could happen and my money would not be safe. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">So what am I waiting for? Floorboards seem
to be the best option.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And if the
burglars are clever enough, then I'd rather they had the money than the bankers
(rhyming slang).</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Having your money safely locked away in bank vaults is a Butch Cassidy
and the Sundance Kid fantasy. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Today cyber
crime rules. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your money can be stolen on
line and although in many circumstances the bank may make good the loss, the
thieves are not even pursued. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I've always
mistrusted virtual money. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I want to sit
and count those notes occasionally whenever I feel like it like the king in his
counting house before I have my bread and honey. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After all you can't pay notes into a bank or
withdraw them via the internet. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Perhaps one concession: a small bank
account for buying things on line.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not
being able to send a late birthday card or order a next-day delivery of food
supplies in the middle of a sleepless night would be difficult to give up. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">So I conclude that the well-hidden shoebox
or secret drawer is today's best method of storing my money. The lure of
interest is virtually non-existent. If your money isn't cleaned out by cyber
crime or wiped out by the sudden collapse of the bank if you have too much,
then the taxman will be looting your account without your knowledge or the bank
will be making mistakes in your name but never having to say it's sorry. </span></div>

</h2>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">It seems I'm not the Messiah after all. I'm
just a very naughty girl. Today I chose
the path of denial by pretending I wasn't moving home next week. Problem is, I am. Head-in-the-sand syndrome is futile, but while
it lasts it's bliss. Today it did the trick. I turned my back on the overwhelming
pile of cardboard boxes aching to be filled with glassware and china and tucked
in with bubble wrap and soothing tissue paper and I simply ran off. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">Instead I turned to M&S where I assuaged
my guilt by buying my mother a feast of cakes, confectionary and flowers and spending a couple of hours with her. This was a holding exercise so I don't have
to visit again until after the move which is, by the way, on Friday, 13th. But why should the number of people at the
Last Supper bother me? If I'm not the Messiah I can snap my fingers and laugh
in the face of the curse of Friday, 13th. Yet already its influence is in
evidence. Steve, the wonderful, tried-and-tested removal man who was going to
move me and take care of other plats du jour such as taking unwanted stuff
to the tip and reliably rushing hither and thither providing anything I desire, had a car
accident on Tuesday and is laid up with
broken bones and worse until the new year.
Yet Friday, 13th has also proven to be lucky, though not for poor Steve. As no-one is keen to move home on that inauspicious
day I managed to get a last minute booking with a firm who
are highly-recommended, helpful and lovely, but they are not Steve and never could be.</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span lang="EN-US">When I left my mother today, I somehow
found myself in a shop trying on a glam furry leopard coat. Reader, I bought it and it felt good. But now I'm home and facing the music, but
it's not "So here it is, Merry Christmas, everybody's having fun"
quite yet. Everything is just as I left
it - chaos. I've packed
most of the good stuff and feel so disengaged that if I were to leave everything
else behind or dump it at the local tip it would make little difference to my
life. Tempting. Walk away and start again might be the way
forward. I swear that is not an avoidance
tactic. Neither is this blog. </span></span></span></div>

words "socialists" and "lefties" and "unions" are still regarded as enough to terrify the electorate into voting anything but Labour, but while they may

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">While Labour listen, the Tories charge
ruthlessly, arrogantly on, ignoring the opinions and advice of the experts, the
experienced, of teachers on education, doctors and nurses on health, medical
experts and social workers on the fitness to work of the severely disabled and
profoundly ill, anyone who might give them sound advice. They either ignore or
misjudge the opinion of a large part of the electorate who they seem to think
just don't count. And most disturbing is their insidious social engineering, bedroom tax evictions leading to bed and breakfasts with no permanent address from which to vote, or moving people to homes out of a target constituency to improve the odds of electoral victory. And now Cameron proposes to axe housing benefit from the young unemployed. "Hurrah", crow the Daily Mail readers, but the political implications are sinister.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Only Labour is now fit for purpose. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Labour's USP is that they genuinely see themselves as the people's party,
the only party that can deliver a fair society, with hope and opportunity for
all. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They are there for the many not for
the few. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And Labour is listening and
learning. They don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past because they believe
in the future. There were many in
Brighton returning to the fold, seeing the current Labour Party as their only hope, their only home. They were not disappointed.</span><br />

<br />
The Tories<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";"> should have won the 2010 elections with a landslide. Cameron ran the length and
breadth of the country through the night like a headless chicken in shirtsleeves desperate to make everyone like him. He would be Prime Minister. If it didn't work then, how will it work now, especially with the Tories having
to appeal to their own hard right who are doing more than flirting with UKIP. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The Tories might rubbish Ed Miliband, but
David Cameron has never had popular appeal. </span>

can no longer be said there's little difference between Labour and the Tories.
They're now miles apart. The vulnerable are under attack from both Tory local
and national government, portrayed as scroungers, suffering from cruel,
ideology-led policies. We live with food banks and children going to school
hungry, with a government that doesn't care.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">
