If ever we wanted confirmation of deep intellectual dishonesty and flawed process, we have it in the form of the 'review' of East End Lies by its commander in chief Monsieur Takki Sulaiman.
No Mabel, turkeys don't vote for Christmas, do they? I regard the mayor as being complicit in this, since he could easily have chosen some more transparent review method or (better) just respected the previous and new (Pickles-style) council code of conduct for publicity. However LBTH have a pick-and-mix approach to statute, roughly summed up as 'what suits us/what gets us re-elected', no notion of general interest, you must be dreaming.
Finally, as a sufferer, this review of tort by stakeholder/instigator also extends to the formal complaint process. In fact, there is no actual complaint process in this borough, since the main aim to is bury complaints whilst wasting as much of the complainers time and energy as possible.
I think we're now waiting for our Egyptian or Tunisian (but preferably not Libyan) moment, there's just too much wrong to be righted 'gently'. Investigative journalism would be a 'good' start, too.
