Dear lighthearted folk

Just a quick hello. If you phone Stockport council, like I did last week, you could be put on hold and left listening to the attached
song by snow patrol. I was left for 20 minutes listening, so while I was waiting
I put the words to script and went and waited in Fred Perry House. I sat on the
floor and while waiting played the song and lyrics on my phone. The funniest
thing – a lady on an internal phone was also waiting and laughed because she was
listening to the same from two different sources. She liked mine best because
she followed the lyrics with a smile and it was followed by many others there who were also
waiting. A kind police desk clerk informed me the police had been called and
were on their way, so to avoid arrest might I leave before they arrived. Council
security guards were not very pleased, but it is quite OK for us to be kept
waiting. Take note of the words that are sung in the lyrics; the council should
read and listen themselves, then they will understand,
I did not get arrested
and later contacted the police who haven’t commented they will be taking any action. Only smiles the lighter side of peaceful protest; make people smile and they will
be on your side.

From Mike. Keep your chin up and a smile a day will keep
the Council at bay.

The vicious and vile Stockport LibDems didn’t arrest him that time. Hurrah.

LibDems, barely literate.

Sheila,

Your
emails always just lack one thing, among many.

I
don’t know about Mr Parnell, my only dealings with him have been his appearing
at my Area Committee asking a public question.

Parnell

Dear Executive
Councillors

I have twice in the
past drawn your attention to what is happening regarding Mr. Parnell. All of you
refused to express any concern whatsoever.

Please see the
attached. I would appear there is a legal right to peaceful protest. I think
the damages the Council will have to pay Mr. Parnell will be huge for the 64
times the police were called and his repeated stay in police cells. I assume
your insurers won’t cover this illegal activity, as they have financial problems
of their own, and that this compensation will have to come from council
taxpayers’ money.

What a shame none of
you acted to stop this abuse within reasonable
timescales.

I hope neither Mr
Parnell nor his daughters commit suicide, which is a possibility; in that tragic
eventuality the Council will have to pay out tens of millions of
pounds.

Yours in disgust at
what you allow to continue in this rotten borough.

Dear Mr Schultz

Mr Parnell has been sent to a particularly nasty
prison maybe until January 2010. We all know he did nothing – there was no
sneeze on the CCTV, which was not allowed to be shown in the Magistrate’s
court. This sentence beggars belief.

He is a very sick man and I think he is likely to
go on hunger strike. If he dies, I will take apart all that has gone on and
seek prosecutions against all who lied and acted in such an unreasonable way to
him.

Despite pontificating in the local press about the
wrong people being in prison, his local MP, as one has come to expect from him,
has done nothing.

If Mr Parnell dies in prison, there are a lot of
people at Stockport Council who will be held to account.

Yours

Dear Mr Farrar

Mr Parnell is highly likely to die in prison, maybe
from hunger strike. Your insurers will end up paying out millions to his family
because he has done nothing wrong. May I suggest you ask to see the CCTV of the
alleged non-incident, which wasn’t allowed to be shown in the
cosy-relationship-with-the-Council Magistrates’ Court. That would expose the
corruption and get him out of Forrest Bank prison soon before anything even more
terrible happens, with the resulting lesser claim against your
insurers.

Yours sincerely

Dear Mr Houston

Regarding the letter sent by you on 8th
March 2012, I can’t request Mr Majothi carries out the stage
2 complaint process because he is up to his neck in this case. He should
have realised the Council had a statutory duty to help Mr Parnell and got off
his bottom and done something. He didn’t – year after year after year.
He is a massive part of the problem. You will have to deal with
the Stage 2 complaint.

I have heard nothing back from Mr Parnell, so the letter of authority
stands until you send me written confirmation that he doesn’t want me to act
for him or I hear further from him. I am happy not to act on his behalf
as I have a lot on my plate, but I wonder if the two council officers you
mention are the same ones who threatened to kill him, kick his f*cking head in
and ram his phone so far up his backside he would be sh*tting phone parts for a
week, or, indeed, the ones who attacked him. Or, I wonder if they
are officers who knew all this was happening (I sent you the video
evidence) and did nothing about it. I hope you don’t mind if I don’t
take the word of anyone at Stockport Council. Documentary evidence is needed
before I stand down.

I am taking the matter to the Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate,
who have recently been very critical of the CPS. I didn’t know they
existed. Mr Parnell’s case should never have been taken by them to court
as they failed to prove the five statutory tests they need to establish
before taking a case forward, and they took a huge number of cases
forward against him.

So, no whitewashes please. Just do your job and do it properly and
every step of the way I shall keep interested parties informed of your
responses.

Just some points from your letter which need raising:-

1) “this letter has addressed the issues raised under Stage 1 of the
Council’s corporate complaints procedure.” No, it
hasn’t!

2) “I have decided not to uphold your complaint”.
This is not surprising but nevertheless disappointing. You were, of
course, always likely to support Mr Khan.

3) “It would be inappropriate for the Council to investigate the
complaints you have raised on behalf of Mr. Parnell…..he subsequently spoke
to two Council Officers to retract the consent.”

This comment is unacceptable. It is vital to know who these
supposed council officers are? Please detail their names
and the circumstances of this alleged encounter.

4) “As you no longer have authority to act on behalf of Mr Parnell,
the Council is not obliged to investigate the issues you have raised on his
behalf.” I do have authority unless you prove
otherwise.

I have experience of the Council’s complaints system which is
innavigable. I raised with Mr. Majothi the fact that the school which I
correctly stated had a £5 million black hole in its funding, was to be put on
unremediated toxic waste. I got nowhere with Mr. Majothi and I think you
will realise that I am no quitter. He is impossible to deal with.
There are entire websites devoted to the sheer incompetence of our Local
Ombudsman and as they employ former senior council officers, their impartiality
is in doubt.

5) I have repeatedly raised this matter with the former Chief
Executive, the Leader, the Current Chief Executive, Khan, Webb and all the
Executive Councillors. I have the email evidence. To say I have not
raised this matter before is an untrue statement and I wonder why you
should claim that despite a large amount of documentary evidence to the
contrary. I have been branded vexatious for contacting the Council
repeatedly. If the Council stopped sending innocent council
taxpayers to prison and failing to investigate their valid complaints, there
would need to be less contact.

6) “Mr Parnell should have complained about these issues sooner”.
Mr Parnell tried and tried and tried, as can be confirmed by the local
reporter. He was repeatedly arrested for trying to enter council
buildings. I have had to plead with the police not to arrest him for
trying to leave a council meeting early. You forget there is masses of
documentary police and court evidence. Please do not insult my
intelligence by making such ludicrous statements which are ill-befitting to a
senior and highly paid Council officer.

Your letter is full of shoulds and mays and inappropriates and when you
say it is difficult to investigate Mr Khan you mean you really don’t want to.

Please proceed with this complaint and do so in an honest and
professional matter, bearing in mind the close scrutiny to which your replies
and indeed the whole complaint process at Stockport Council will be put.

Yours

Sheila

Dear Chief Constable

In the light of the case documented below, your
officers are wrong in repeatedly arresting the peaceful town hall protester. At
no time has there ever been any threat of violence from him and he has the right
to Freedom of Expression, even living as he does under the LibDem
jackboot.

We need to post all the information relevant to his
case on the Internet and make it available to journalists. How can the LibDems
claim to support human rights?

Your officers would be better employed arresting
Khan for wasting police time. This case has cost the taxpayer probably hundreds
of thousands of pounds and you were told years ago what was going
on.

Dear Chief Constable

Mike Iveson, clerk to the LibDem Executive at
Stockport Council, has emailed me today reiterating that nothing has changed. I
can’t, therefore, be allowed to sort out Mr Parnell’s problems with the Council,
which I could do in about an hour, so they will continue arresting him and
wasting police time. Andrew Stunell is largely responsible for the formation of
this gruesome coalition but he can’t lift a finger to help a constituent with a
simple problem.

Mr Iveson said Miss McAvity, the Monitoring Officer
(when there is wrongdoing at Stockport Council she’s not there) might get back
to me. She has never bothered before, so I won’t hold my breath.

I shall ask Khan, the Council Solicitor, tonight
at the council meeting if he will let me be an intermediary for Mr Parnell to
stop this ludicrous waste of police time and resources, court time and hundreds
of thousands of taxpayers’ pounds, but he is quite pointless too, so not much
hope there either.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Chief Constable

As you know I have previously raised the matter of
Mr. Parnell and Stockport Council with you and eventually you stopped your
officers from arresting him.

I have to say that maybe your two officers who
tragically lost their lives in Mottram would have been better served by you had
you not allowed literally thousands of police man hours to be wasted on Mr.
Parnell’s case and diverted those resources to dealing with the true crime
situation in Greater Manchester. However, that is now between you and your
conscience.

The matter that concerns me now is that
Stockport police station is moving to Fred Perry House. Due to the – shall we
say idiosyncratic – nature of senior councillors and council officers at
Stockport, it is claimed that Fred Perry House is not a new building but simply
a re-naming of Ponsonby House ( I know, that’s what I thought too!). Mr Parnell
is banned by a Criminal ASBO, imposed on him for a crime of which he was
acquitted, from entering Ponsonby House, which as we have learned has now been
re-named at a cost of £12 million as Fred Perry House. If the Council arrests
Mr Parnell in future on a trumped-up charge, such as leaving a council meeting
early or using the town hall loo despite written permission to do so, and the
police take him into Fred Perry House, then he faces 5 years in prison for each
time they have him arrested (for an offence of which he was acquitted). If he
goes to the new police station for any reason – to report a lost or stolen item
or to hand in anything he has found – then he faces 5 years in prison for each
time he enters. I have no doubt you will appreciate the lunacy of this
situation brought about by the assorted fruitcakes who run Stockport Council and
aided and abetted by your actions over many years.

I would be interested in any comments you wish to
make about this matter, which will be posted up on my website. In the run up to
the next general election, which will be a very hard-fought one, every time the
LibDems mention their commitment to civil liberties in any newspaper, I shall
bung up a link to my website. So, we need to sort this matter out now, as you
should have done years ago, to avoid embarrassment to you and, let’s not forget,
further intolerable strain being put on Mr. Parnell. I wait to hear from
you.
