COUNCILLOR RECEIVED ‘500 FREEBIES’
Westminster city council’s Conservative deputy leader may be the most ‘schmoozed’ politician in Britain, having received free entertainment, meals and gifts more than 500 times in the last three years. Gifts received by Robert Davis include tickets to top West End shows, exclusive dinners at London’s finest restaurants and trips to the south of France, more than 100 of which were given by property developers. Labour has said the extensive list is evidence of a “broken culture at Westminster council”.

Congratulations on your victory. Large corporations must learn that they have to obey the rules just the same as the rest of us.
Please seek an opinion as to whether a claim for damages will succeed. I am sure that your readers will be happy to contribute towards your costs. Be aware though that you would be liable for their costs if you fail.

I’ll encourage friends living nearby to get their views heard.

Collective resistance is the only way to stop mindless destruction in the name of corporate profit. Thank you, Gentle Author.

Congratulations well done and stick it to them!

I’d love to have been able to reblog this, I’ve told my followers about this saga hopefully they can find you too.

Now they know what they are up against and will no doubt be plotting and scheming their case for the the next round, so keep a tight hold of that sling. We will all be rooting for you and await with great anticipation to the next instalment. Good luck.

As I live in New Zealand now, would my objection count? I well remember the chest hospital and I think my sister was there for a while bay back in the 40s. And the mulberry tree? What a beauty and well worth preserving as, in fact, they all are.
It seems to m that as Crest Nicholson is totally motivated by money you should pursue them.for compensation for damages. It is clear that people could well have thought that you approved of their actions by their use of your photograph.

I shall be writing a letter of protest later and I have already signed the petition as the destruction of this venerable mulberry tree would be a national disgrace. Keep up the good work GA, we all admire you very much.
