Mr Parnell never withdrew his consent for me to act on his behalf. Majothi is not a fit person to hold public office

Dear
Mr Majothi
This
is a ridiculous situation. If I were to make an official complaint
against you – and I have
very, very good cause to do that – then would you also deal
with the complaint against yourself? Well, this is Stockport Council so
you might!
I
might submit a complaint against you to see how that gets dealt with, unless
you come to your senses regarding this one. Obviously, if you spent years
and years pussyfooting around not dealing with a simple, cheap-to-solve complaint
about the statutory duty to provide counselling from troubled children adopted
from Stockport Council resulting in multiple imprisonments of an innocent man
at a cost to the taxpayer of probably hundreds of thousands of pounds, then I
don’t have much confidence in your ability to do anything either compentently
or honestly.
All
this is going up on websites, Mr Majothi.
Pass
this complaint to someone competent to deal with and also someone uninvolved
with the abuses that have been perpetrated against a completely innocent man.
I
look forward to hearing from you. It was stated publicly that Steve Houston
deals with complaints against the Monitoring Officer. Tell him to get off
his bottom and do just that.

Dear
Ms Oliver,
Thank
you for your email. I have discussed this matter with my line manager, Mr
Adrian Moores, whom I have copied into this email. Mr Moores agrees
with me that the investigation of Stage 2 complaints is solely assigned to me
and it would therefore be inappropriate for the complaint to be passed to
someone else to investigate.
In
light of this, you can either give me the go head to investigate your complaint
at Stage 2 or you can escalate your complaint to the LGO (although I have
already advised you that it is unlikely that the LGO will investigate your complaint
at this stage).
Please
let me know how you wish to proceed.
Yours
sincerely,
Anwar Majothi

Dear
Mr Majothi
I
have absolutely no confidence that you will investigate this complaint in a
proper fashion. Over the many, many years this has been going on you
could have solved the problem of Mr Parnell by providing the statutory help
that he was entitled to for his troubled daughters adopted from Stockport
Council and you could have done this at minimal cost possibly five years ago.
It
would be ludicrous for you to investigate this complaint. A complete
whitewash.
I
look forward to hearing the response from someone senior to deal with this
matter. This case is being taken to the Inspectorate for the CPS,
who are again today highly critical in the press of the prosecutions they
are bringing. Mr Parnell’s prosecutions didn’t even meet the CPS’s own
basic, legally binding guidelines for prosecuting a case.
All
responses from the Council will be posted up in the public domain and forwarded
to the very many enemies of the LibDems. Rupert Murdoch seems to be
cleaning up politics now (it is a funny old World), and I can contact him
directly via Twitter about what is going on here. I think the Council
needs to make sure all its actions stand up to close scrutiny, because Mr
Murdoch is hell bent on revenge on dodgy Coalition politicians. Just
think of the human rights the Council has abused in this case, not only of Mr
Parnell but his daughters and wife. The Council has a track record of
driving vulnerable people to suicide. You should have helped him – that
is your job. The LibDems believe in human rights; they are against waste
of public money. Well, this must have cost me as a taxpayer hundreds of
thousands of pounds and I am jolly annoyed about it. Just think how this
case would look splashed everywhere highlighting their double standards. Rupert
Murdoch would love this one.
Yours
Mrs
Oliver
PS I have told you why I am unhappy with the Stage 1
complaint. Here we go again around in never ending circles, just as
we did with what I correctly stated was the school on a dangerous toxic waste
dump.

Dear
Ms Oliver,
I
write to confirm that your email below (and your email of 22nd
March) have been brought to my attention. I note that you have requested that
Mr Houston investigates your complaint further at Stage 2. I should inform you
that this would be inappropriate given that I am specifically tasked with
investigating complaints at Stage 2 of the corporate complaints procedure. Mr
Houston has already investigated and responded to your complaint at Stage 1.
If
you still wish to proceed with your complaint I would be grateful if you would
let me know why you remain unhappy following the Stage 1 response? I look
forward to receiving your comments within the next 10 days. I will then
investigate your complaint and aim to provide you with an outcome within 20
working days.
Alternatively,
if you do not wish for me to investigate your complaint you can escalate your
complaint to the Local Government Ombudsman (LGO); however it is unlikely that
they will investigate as your complaint has not been exhausted locally. The
contact details for the LGO are as follows:

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
