Strangely, Stockport Council have and do allow me to ask FOIA questions on any subject except the corruption pit that is the toxic waste dump primary school.

Do you smell a rotting LibDem rat?



Workers from the Information Commission at Wilmslow migrate to Stockport Council. Claire Naven, Stockport Council’s then FOIA officer did as did Alex Ganotis who was later Leader of the council and agreed that all my questions were “vexatious”.

And the Information Commissioners past and present frankly are not much to write home about.



I gave up asking when the cost got to £10m and the project managers, Webb and Sager, told the Information Commissioner my questions were “vexatious”.

Should this proposed school be reconsidered, I asked, in view of the spiraling costs and the fact that no consideration has been given to contamination remediation costs?

Stop bothering us with your vexatious questions, the LibDem Executive councillors replied. We have important work to do.



Within another six months the proposed cost had risen to £8.2m, and they admit to being £2.4m short.

Why has the cost of the proposed school gone from £5.5m to £7.5m in just two months, I asked.

Don’t be vexatious and stop wasting our time with your pointless questions, the LibDem Executive councillors replied, and they still do.



By December 2005 the cost of the proposed school had risen to £7.5m – in just two months a massive rise.
