What's the problem

I have been pointed in the direction of another website, Firbeck Online, and the piece relating to an anonymous email sent to a parish council member.  Since there is little happening in Misterton and it relates to a comment made earlier, I thought I would high jack it and copy it in.

It was written by a Phil Rogers, a member of the parish council and licensee of the Black Lion

"To Whom this may concern

I think the verbal assault on Nic Stevens and her private life is totally unacceptable.

This has been done by someone who has created a spoof email address just to cause upset and harm to one of the hardest working people I know.

Nic has worked tirelessly for this village, Creating youth interest, Farmers market, Fund raising for the Church and generally going out of her way to help people.

And this is the way she is repaid for this hard work. The sender of this email does not even have the courage to put their name to the slanderous accusation made in it.

I for one, and I can only speak for myself as a parish councillor will be pressing for Police involvement in this matter. This sort of behaviour is not acceptable.

What do people want from the Parish Council. We have to move forward and stop this back biting we are only trying to do the best for everyone who lives in Firbeck and not just the minority.

Nic on a personal note don’t let this mindless idiot get you down."

What is interesting is the attitude of the Parish Council, none of this, nothing to do with us mate, like from our own council, who apparently have no interest in assisting past members with the onslaught of anon letters received whilst they were in office.  Trouble is, for some people finding out the truth might be a bit close to home.   Since those who received the letters were accused of having their fingers in our till, if it was me on the receiving end, I would want the village ducking stool brought out and since we haven't got a pond, then use the sewage tank at Walkeringham.  That's where they belong.

Don't know who runs the Firbeck Online website but it is a good one, something we ought to have in Misterton, warts and all.

  1. It really is pathetic that the group now running Misterton Parish Council won't co-operate with those of its personnel who were subjected to the anonymous and forged letters attack, prior to the new administration taking over in 2010. Can you imagine any other employer who would act in such a way?

    I'll pose this question to the majority group: Why are you determined to prevent the truth emerging?

  2. I think you already know the answer to that. In a village like Misterton something like this will fester for years if not sorted out. Makes good print though and a lot of people seem interested in this story.
