Wirral In It Together

Still ROOM to change the SITUATION?

Here’s an FOI request we placed over a month ago, on 16th April 2019:

https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/racial_profile_for_top_250_nhs_e

It’s currently languishing because NHS England responded to say they don’t know what we mean by ‘top 250 executives’ and have asked us to define it.

The Freedom of Information Act assists them in this regard because the clock stops ticking as the request is put on hold.

We’ve responded as follows and hopefully, they’ll come back to us, stop prevaricating and earn their public money salaries by correctly engaging with clear, uncomplicated public enquiries, as they are required to do under the law.

Although we’re uncertain about the frequency, we know that the top 250 to 300 executives in NHS England have gatherings.

We’re also aware of a concern among the very small (in single numbers) delegation of senior BME staff in attendance that they feel it’s synonymous to entering a kind of private club for whites only.

So it’s another…watch this space…and keep watching…but for how long…?

Toodle pip!

On the 25th Anniversary of the death of Old Labour leader, John Smith…

…Tony Blair – war criminal at large – appeared on Sky TV’s predictable, mainstream Sunday Morning offering: The Sophy Ridge Spectacular, or whatever it’s called.

We won’t provide a link as hanging onto a half-decent reputation is always at the forefront of our thinking.

Meanwhile, Julian Assange, the hero @wikileaks publisher who bravely brought us the video “Collateral Murder“, amongst many, many more exposures of criminal, immoral or highly-dubious activity on the part of world governments, is rotting inside Belmarsh High-Security Prison, amongst dangerous criminals and terrorists, and under threat of deportation to the USA, a powerful, but intensely backward nation which still resorts to the death penalty.

Tony Blair meanwhile, during his criminally-active days, brought the death penalty to a million (and counting) innocent Iraqis, but because he continues to have the UK state and its lapdog mainstream media on a tight leash, he enjoys his freedom along with the ability to walk into highly-paid, commissioned roles or to give well-remunerated speeches to gatherings of the world’s VIP arms dealers, tax avoiders, kingmakers and policy-shapers. The super rich who collude against us.

25 years ago today, John Smith… died.

Then Doctor David Kelly, who blew the whistle on the Iraq War WMD lies… died.

Then Robin Cook, Tony Blair’s awkward, plain-speaking Defence Secretary… died.

It seems those brave enough to offer hope and / or tell the truth either have their freedom taken away… or die.

That and this morning’s situation is why we say today, we’re now down the rabbit-hole…

Toodle Pip!

It’s not worth placing a Freedom of Information request about this behaviour.

Because the data doesn’t lie, more of which is now here:

Note the IP address: 193.161.4.17

So 864 = total number of Wirral Council visits for 2019 …so far.

So much time and money wasted.  Or is it?  We shouldn’t be too cynical.  The visitors may be learning some valuable lessons…

Toodle Pip !

Toodle Pip!

It’s not worth placing a Freedom of Information request about this behaviour.

Because the data doesn’t lie, more of which later, in a future post.

Toodle Pip !
