"the local politicians who, following relentless badgering by Hounslow Council officers, granted Thames Water permission to expand its operation by nearly 50% were not only blighting the lives of thousands of local residents but were also assisting the efforts of the company to pull off a tax dodge?" This missive from MRAG "Whilst residents were pleased to learn that the two most senior Council Officers, who were so determined to act against residents' wishes and fought so hard on behalf of Thames Water to recommend the ill-fated expansion of the site, are no longer employed by the Council, we believe Cllr Ruth Cadbury owes it to the community to work together with our MP, Ms Macleod, and take ownership of the problem on a local level. It was, after all, Cllr Cadbury who moved to approve the Planning Application which was seconded by Cllr John Cooper. It is a fact that Thames Water was found guilty on 18 counts of mismanagement and gross negligence and Cllr Cadbury was well aware, from previous dealings with Thames Water, long before the Application was submitted, that the Company could not be trusted to fullfill its promise that he site would be odour neutral after the expansion. Cllr Cadbury needs to take responsibility for her actions which now, after four long years of enduring ongoing chaos throughout expansion, still causes constant misery and stress to residents. We look forward to hearing from our MP, the Council Labour Group and the Council's Head of Environment on exactly how they intend to deal with Thames Water. Mogden Residents Action Group" |
