Seem...Well, well, well... who'd have thunk it?<br /><br />Seems exec cllr James Denselow is a paid-up member of FKRL - judging by the lock, stock and faithful wholesale reproduction on his own blog of Margaret Bailey's latest FKRL Facebook 'Update', both dated 4 Feb - <br /><br />www.cllrdenselow.com/update-friends-kensal-rise-library <br /><br />But pray note (I've been watching Wolf Hall, 'tis true) - as the ambitious councillor and techy expert behind the BrentLive blog states categorically - 'Comments are closed'. What the good councillor meant is that comments were never open. Silly behaviour for an alleged democrat - who'll doubtless be knocking on doors asking Queen's Park residents to vote Labour in the election that's on its way.<br /><br />Which leads to the obvious question - who do these pseudo-democrats think they are (rhetorical question, but feel free to answer)? And in particular, what could the Cllr Denselow possibly fear from open comments on his blog? Ridicule for following in Roxanne Mashari's political steps and encouraging 'negotiations' between FKRL and Andrew Gillick? Loss of Queen's Park to Labour?<br /><br />Whatever - both Denselow and Mashari owe the formerly well-regarded FKRL an apology for encouraging them get under the sheets with Gillick. Remember - a previous WM blog updated readers on the police investigation in to the fraudulent email affair in which it was noted that 'the Council did provide the Police with all the IP addresses and details of how Council officers had linked these to Mr Gillick or his company via open source research'<br /><br />http://wembleymatters.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/more-details-emerge-on-brent-councils.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed:+WembleyMatters+(WEMBLEY+MATTERS)<br /><br />Cllrs Denselow and Mashari have much to answer for.

As the intended tenants of the D1 space, as per our agreement with All Souls College, we recognise the necessity of a good relationship with whoever owns the building and we have been pleased that a number of the developers have indicated their willingness to work with us and the community'.<br /><br />FKRL and developers - what can possibly go wrong... Seems like the group has learnt nothing from getting into bed with Gillick. As for 'the lease arrangement with All Souls' - what lease arrangement? The one Thomas Seaman asserted that the college would 'raise' with whoever the new owner might be. And FKRL as the 'intended tenants'? I believe ACV-listing regulations preclude this, a point, I understand, both Gillick's and FKRL's lawyers agreed upon. So why keep reiterating what is, at best, wishful thinking?<br /><br />And the D1 (cupboard) space? Any developer will seek to have this removed - and is likely to succeed. ASC can puff and pant all it likes about its face-saving lease but it's the college that chose Gillick over (a then-united) FKRL business proposal for the library building. The college has, I believe, been advised of the CPS' findings in to the fraudulent email affair. It must rue the day it chose to short-sell the-then FKRL for Andrew Gillick. <br /><br />I'm sorry, but rump-FKRL seems willing to believe anything it's told by interested parties regarding the library building in defiance of experience, the latest FB statement reading more like a long ego-trip than an attempt to inform its readers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
