Dear Sheila

Mike here. I
am dropping you a line to let you know what is happening at this end. Today I received a letter from our MP Mr Stunell and within that letter it makes
reference to at my request he has arranged a meeting with senior council
officials to see what he can sort out. Also contained in the letter (this is
what is in my mind – I am thinking, because he is lib dem and along with the
council they might be on the back foot and ready to turn and then be on the
run)
he makes reference to
yourself and as stated reads:- “In
the meantime I received the attached email from Mrs Oliver”
and also is written If you intend to re-engage
Mrs Oliver to act on your behalf please let me know so that he can
withdraw.
and then he
says “As you know, I am
ready to help, but not in competition with Mrs Oliver”,
Sheila how dare he say that and act in
such a way he is to both of us our MP and he has a duty to act on both our
behalf in response to that we have concerns over. You are the only person that
has so far given support, you
truly care
and that is a
big part in our well-being. You help because you willingly choose to, and your
help is greatly appreciated. With my warmest – thank you, Sheila.

Love Mike



Council pays out in race claim

LibDem Councillors Posted on Tue, January 20, 2015 19:49

December 12, 2007

“A Northwest council is believed to have paid out around £250,000 after
settling two race discrimination claims by a former employee.

The cases involved Justin Idehen,
who earlier this year took Stockport Council to an industrial tribunal for a
second time. Mr Idehen, former head of engineering services, won damages of
£160,000 after alleging racial harassment back in 2001.

In the latest claim, he alleged to an industrial tribunal in Manchester
that in May 2006, he had applied for a new position with a council contractor
only to be told: ‘You can’t work for Stockport Council in any capacity at all.’

It is understood that the second case has now been settled out of court for
a figure believed to be above £80,000. The latest settlement suggests Mr
Idehen’s cases have cost Stockport council tax payers around £240,000 in
compensation, before legal fees.

An internal council source who asked not to be named, said: “The latest
amount, which was offered was £80,000, but it is my understanding that this was
rejected by him.

“However, by April all parties agreed on the final figure, which suggests
it was much higher than that original offer.

“However, that settlement would take no account of paying barrister’s fees
for the preparation work, the three-day hearing involving Mr Idehen’s London
barrister and/or the local authority’s own legal bills. The cost to the
authority must have been astronomical.”

The settlement came ahead of a three-day hearing in the spring at which the
authority was warned a decision due in July could award “exemplary damages”
against Stockport council.

Labour councillor Sheila Bailey claimed the case could have been avoided
second time around if the people allegedly committing racist acts had been dealt
with swiftly.

She said: “If the local authority settles out of court, it is accepting it
has a problem, but apart from paying out a huge amount, it a duty to deal with
the people at fault. At the very least there should have been an internal
inquiry not only to look at this, but at its general policy to make sure it is
being adhered to.”

The council has repeatedly refused to comment, claiming to do so would be
an infringement of the Data Protection Act.”



The opening of Fred Perry House – time to arrest Mr Parnell

Town Hall Protester Posted on Tue, January 20, 2015 19:37

Words of Mr Parnell, RIP

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gr4otMiXY0g&feature=email

“Tuesday 4th January 2011. This was the first
day the Fred Perry House was opened to the public. I walked past and the
council phoned the police and they were searching for me.

The next day I stopped outside to talk to someone who told me about the day before. Then within
5 minutes the police came and arrested me – 2 oclock three police vehicles. They
took me to Cheadle Heath Police Station held me until 23:45 hrs. Released – no
charge but on police bail to go back 19th Jan.

On Tuesday 11th I went into Fred Perry
house to contact the Welfare Rights Office and was again after only 5 minutes being arrested at 1 o’clock. Released 19:30hrs. Police taking no further action. When will the council stop victimising me? They say in this
their film this building is to be accessible to all people, or is it, as the
council leader Dave Goddard says in the film, he is to breach the people in Stockport. He seems under the influence of the falling-down medicine. I hope he didn’t
drive home.”



This time Mr Parnell wasn’t arrested for entering the town hall

Dear Mrs Oliver

I refer to your email copied to the Chair of the Police
Authority on 7 June.

The meeting is a public meeting open to all and it
certainly will not be the intention of Greater Manchester Police Authority to
attempt to restrict attendance by any particular members of the
public.

Subject: Police Authority Meeting, Stockport town hall

Dear Councillor Goddard,
Barry Khan, Mr Boylan

I note the Police Authority are coming to
Stockport Town Hall – a jolly good idea!

Will you be allowing Mr Parnell
to attend and will you be allowing him to put a question should he so desire,
or will you try to have him arrested on a restraining order on a crime of which
he was acquitted after council employees were found to have lied to the Court
and Ged Lucas, Assistant Chief Executive, couldn’t be bothered to respond to
nine attempts by the police to contact him to ask him to appear before the
court, and following which he was severely criticised by the judge? Just
wondering.

You remain my humble servants

Sheila



Nigel Battersby knew for years what was being done to Mr Parnell and failed to act

Just a few of Mr Parnell’s arrests –
http://www.sheilaoliver.org/custodies,-arrests,-imprisonment.html

Dear Mr XXXXX

I refer to
your below request for information from Greater Manchester Police Authority
received by email on the 15 May 2011. This request has been dealt with
under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

In answer to your question.

In response
to a previous Freedom of Information Act request, an Inspector of Greater
Manchester Police with knowledge of the matter informed me:

“Mr
Parnell is well known to us on my patch however I am unable to breakdown the
number of times we have dealt with him whether that was simply advice or
resulted in his detention.

As you correctly assume there is no
specific fund or costing allocated to Mr Parnell to enable us to identify costs
it would be part of general duties. The problem is increased as we hold a
number of budgets for each NPU or response team none of which drill down to the
fine detail in respect of which individual was arrested etc. Given the number
of units several would have had dealings with Mr Parnell and it is not possible
to collate these collectively”.

Other than
the above, as Greater Manchester Police
Authority
is a separate organisation from Greater Manchester
Police, the Police Authority does not
hold
information relating to the number of times officers of
Greater Manchester Police has been called out to Mr Parnell etc.

However it is possible that Greater Manchester Police may hold some or
all of the information you require. If you require any further information
I would advise you to

resubmit your request to the Greater Manchester Police Freedom of
Information team at the following email address:

freedomofinformation@gmp.police.uk

If you are unhappy with the way Greater Manchester Police Authority has
handled your request for information, you can request a review by writing to:

Mr Russell Bernstein, Executive Director, Greater Manchester
Police Authority, Salford
Civic Centre, Chorley
Road, Swinton, Salford,
M27 5DA.

If you remain dissatisfied with the handling of your request or
complaint, you have a right of appeal to the Information Commissioner at:

The Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water
Lane,

Wilmslow, Cheshire,
SK9 5AF.

Telephone: 08456 30 60 60

or 01625 54 57 45

There is no charge for making an appeal.

Yours sincerely

Dear Chief Constable

Is it any wonder your officers get shot when you
allow hundreds and hundreds of hours of police time to be wasted by the corrupt
Executive councillors and corrupt senior council officers at Stockport Council
in persecuting a man they had a legal duty to help? He is a very sick man and I
have already written to the Coroner Mr John Pollard about what is being done to
him. When you have all pushed him to an early grave I hope he holds you and the
rest of your presumably Masonic chums at Stockport Council to
account.

I am emailing every MP with what is going on. You
are not fit to hold public office:-

The Words of Mr Parnell RIP

Stockport’s town hall has a peaceful protester

Dear All

Hello, how are you? I wish you all are well. Firstly let
me introduce myself – my name is Michael and I am married to my dear wife Karen and we
have two lovely, adopted daughters.

You will see from the subject title Stockport
Town Hall has a peaceful protester and, yes, that is me who is now, if you would
like, telling you why I am stating I am a peaceful protester.

I was not, in the first instance, having cause to protest but there was a need to request for services, not for myself but for our troubled adopted
children in response to their calls for help.

I am of a kind and peaceful nature and always
willing to help. I was a cub, boy scout and while being a venture scout
volunteered to help less able persons through the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme
to assist their needs and help to do things which they could not normally do. It
might look that I praise that which I am proud of, and why shouldn’t I? Doing it
has rewarded me in being able to help others. I am proud of everything I have done,
but when it was that I couldn’t find a way to help those who had suffered a
terrible trauma, I asked for help; for someone to help me to help those in need,
when that help is conditional at a cost and not as unconditional as given by
myself, where are we now with me rambling on? Well when services are not
forthcoming if we are not happy I was told to make a complaint, which I was
reluctant to do. Yet to help others this had to be done. It is not for my own
selfish gains but for children I submitted the complaint. I won’t trouble you
with the rights and wrongs of a complaints system but help for children was needed when
they were children. The time taken to respond and then process the complaint meant the children then were no longer children but more surely troubled adults.

Responding to these needs how can the requests progress? Well, I was told to be
patient and wait. That is what I did outside the Stockport Town Hall, neatly
dressed with polite manners and holding an A4 size piece of paper on which I had written:-
HELLO HOW ARE YOU?

And I was there firstly each day for over 12
months, peacefully again. What is peaceful protest? Well, nobody unless they
asked, knew what my protest was about apart from Stockport Council who have
cause to hide their failings. How did they do this? Peaceful protest!! – they
falsely made allegations accompanied with assaults, discrimination, intimidation, victimisation and with other related unacceptable treatment. Where did this
leave me? Assault injury caused Barretts cell and for a unlucky few – 2% risk – develops into cancer. That is now something I have to stand up to as well, and
requires removal by high risk surgery.

When in preparation to get my affairs
in order, some loose ends had to be tied up.
The Council, knowing of my illness, tried to divert the true course of justice by alleging my arrest
for a section 4A public order offence. By my putting in writing, as requested
from the police, what threats had been made towards myself and that was that “Mr
Stephen Duggan, Council security guard, has said he would smash my head in or kill
me.

Today 5th April 2013, I should have gone into hospital for an operation tomorrow, but the surgeon was not available so it is postponed to next week. The above arrest trial
discontinued but today was revived, and as I was not going into hospital was
requested to attend court, which I did to be acquitted in less then 10 minutes in
and out of the courtroom. A stress lifted but something not needed when facing high
risk surgery.

I have to rest from this for a while, I will, if you would
like to know more, carry on with what has happened further.

Keep well and
all look after yourselves.

Michael

Dear Chief Constable

Finally, the police seem to be backing down on
shutting up the enemies of corrupt council officers and councillors at
Stockport.

About time, but much appreciated.

Kind regards
