...they'll supress the truth whenever it suits them. Saying that Tony Ward told a meeting - which I took minutes for - that the running of the Barton Fayre had been handed to the partnership because Alan Myatt 'didn't have time', and that in spite of this, Alan Myatt had plenty of time, it seemed, for Gloucester Day, must have been regarded as 'inappropriate, derogatory, abusive and/or insulting', because 'There should be no expectation of a private message in these circumstances', and I didn't get any. So, if the public-funded Gloucestershire Constabulary can bend the rules to suit themselves, how can their new forum ever be worth a lick? www.bartonstreetpolice.forumchitchat.com/post/barton-tredworth-cultural-fayre-2014-6524043?trail=#5Fingers crossed, the screenshot of the page before their last deletion (again, no message) will work, so everyone can see my last post...

To the powers that be, there is nothing quite so insulting, abusive, derogatory, etc. as posting simple facts.
Of course, it's perfectly fine for police officers to tell lies, but not for the public to challenge lies.

I'm actually supposed to accept that the Local Resolution procedure is an acceptable response to a complaint of being assaulted by a police officer (Matt Bishop), even thought the IPCC made it clear to Gloucestershire Constabulary last year that such an accusation was too serious for LR to be applied.

Visited the site yesterday, and read this on an otherwise blank page...
Access Denied You do not have permission to access this service. Please contact the administrator if you believe you should not be receiving this message. Be sure to mention your IP address, **.*.**.***.
I'm guessing this has to do with me Tweeting a picture of the front page of a letter sent to me by the useless Bob Heywood of Gloucestershire Constabulary, re an appeal I didn't actually know they were still bothering with, as they'd already regaled me with weasel words about how a PIN wasn't an actual accusation of wrongdoing, it was just something to be considered if the 'behaviour' continued, and consequently, the PIN could be a inaccurate as they liked.
That wasn't too long a sentence, was it? I thought it flowed pretty well...
I'll ring them on their non-emergency number later, to try to get some answers.

It could have been worse - you could have been on your deathbed and been threatened by Pc Philip Rees.

Indeed, I suppose I got off lucky, although having an idea of what my rights are helps.
From top to bottom, the Gloucestershire Constabulary is a crooked organisation (Martin Surl did them no favours hiring Suzette Davenport, or was she the cleanest choice available?). If we had an MP we could rely on, another force would have been brought in months ago to investigate the dodgy goings on...

Getting back to the subject of the Barton Street Police online forum, I can view the forum perfectly well, but I can't see any contact details, let alone an administrator. It doesn't look at all like a professional forum. I've also tried to read the forum guidelines (which are only available when you click on Search) but I've not managed to get them to display yet.

Interesting that the police are all moderators but not the PCSOs (who also joined en masse much later).
OK, not that interesting, I just need an excuse to test the time...

Even the Hide My Ass proxy server isn't showing the Barton police forum now. Have they scrapped it entirely? I still get the 'Access denied' message from the usual link...

By the way, this is my post, with the original text put back. Does not 'conform'?
>>Can I withdraw my vote, then? I'm only interested in the Barton Fayre returning to Barton St. Even the date is secondary to that. I'm not saying I'm against the cultural fayre, mind, I just have no interest in the details.
I took minutes for the meeting where it was announced that the partnership would take over the running of the Fayre **Edited** [Alan Myatt had apparently told Tony Ward that he didn't have the time to organise it any more].
The Fayre was immediately taken off the Street, amid claims that it cost too much to close it to traffic, first to Widden School, then to St. James' Park, where it became the 'community fair'. **Edited** [Alan Myatt, in the meantime, appears to have had plenty of time to organise Gloucester Day]. I chose not to co-sign cheques for the 2011 event then, as that was, by definition, not obligatory (there were others who could have done it, assuming they were willing). A couple of weeks later, all the ducks were in line, or near enough for some people...

The forum is still there, but the Forum Guidelines (which have only been viewed 17 times, by the way) are still not available to non-members. There's a Street Reps meeting at the city farm from 11am till 1pm on 14th November and a Festive Get Together on 12th December, same time and place.
