I welcome the efforts of Alistair Chisholm and John Grantham in refusing to let the Charles Street saga disappear from sight by arranging another meeting today.

Meanwhile, Robert Gould maintains that KCMG “found nothing wrong”.

Many of our MP’s including our own were found to be misusing their expense accounts but the excuse is still: “I didn’t do anything wrong”.

Celebrities, fat-cats, MPs and various other rich folk are avoiding their proper taxes by using various devious means such as off-shore accounts, supposed foreign domicile, and schemes invented for such purpose by accountants.

Of course, you have guessed already, when found out they say, “It’s absolutely legal – I didn’t do anything wrong”.

This phrase is getting used so often as an excuse for moral ineptitude that I wonder if it will slowly change to “I’m a hypocrite but I didn’t do anything wrong,” so that even though the offence avoids prosecution, its defence still portrays an element of truth.

I agree with Robert Gould. He “didn’t do anything wrong”.

He lives in our community, enjoys the status of his position and whatever goes with the job and has absolute power over his subjects.

In due course we will worship at his shrine.

He invites just a few of the many WDDC councillors to his kitchen cabinet where with little reference to those that aren’t Conservatives, he makes his own decisions about anything and everything.

He is conspicuous by his absence in answering to his critics and constructs a monument in Charles Street which will overshadow Dorchester for decades.

His financial mathematics would shame an O-level student and his knowledge of the outside world so limited that he pushed the whole scheme through during an impending economic crisis believing that some entity would help cash flow by purchasing his old offices for £3-4million. He is already congratulating himself in the absence of other admirers.

When the world is in ruins, like a lot of others who put themselves on pedestals of wealth and power, he will probably still be claiming “but I didn’t do anything wrong” or “we were all in it together”.
