Wirral In It Together

Original Times article exposing Asif Hamid as a criminal: https://wirralinittogether.blog/2026/04/26/a-screenshot-of-the-sunday-times-asif-hamid-criminal-article-saved-here-in-the-event-it-ever-gets-deleted/

So, hurriedly ushered away by former Labour Council leader Steve Foulkes – forced to resign when his council was caught out abusing disabled council tenants – they ran away!

For many years, Council leader Paula Basnett was the CEO of Wirral Chamber of Commerce. For many of those same years, criminal Asif Hamid was the Chair of Wirral Chamber of Commerce.

Since the newspaper expose appeared in the Sunday Times on 29th March, I’ve been doing my best to contact the local newspapers and get this important story out there. Not to mention the fact that myself and Wirralleaks tried and failed to win their co-operation on the same subject over 10 years ago.

And here we are today. When the heat gets turned up, Labour Councillor and leader of the local group Paula Basnett is refusing to talk to me. And I certainly don’t do things by halves. Tory Councillor and leader of the local group Jeff Green also refused to talk to me today. Why? Because I’ve spent many years exposing their long-term cross-party failures, cronyism and basic dishonesty. So the problem here certainly doesn’t lie with me. That much is obvious. Here’s a link to 100 items of interest for those who demand not just political representation but accountability.

For reference, here are some of your Asif Hamid links:
