Brian Coleman corner

Brian is special guy and I think he deserves a bit of rounding up - some would say a bit of shipping out as well (geddit!!?!?!?!). He's certainly been making waves in his beloved blogosphere lately. Try this from Not the Barnet Times:

Just eight days after being found guilty of breaching the Members Code of Conduct, Brian Coleman has once again been sending offensive e-mails over the council's servers.

It's not the same sort of thing as the Barnet Eye standards committee affair, but Brian did express the view that a solicitor opposed to cuts in sheltered housing warden services, a policy Barnet favours, was "dreadful" and should be "struck off." Goodness me. Now read on.

Speaking of the Barnet Eye affair, Rog T is back from his post-victory break from Brian-worship and has posted a refutation of some of the bad things Brian told the complaints investigator about him. See here.

And finally, Adam Bienkov:

The Fire Brigade have been accused of trying to cover up a damaging complaint about London's Fire Authority Chairman Brian Coleman. Earlier this summer, a member of the Authority's catering staff claimed that Coleman had launched into an "aggressive and rude" tirade against her. The woman, who was employed within the brigade headquarters, said that Coleman had reduced her to tears on two separate occasions.

Blimey. Read it all.
