Ever Wondered WHY ? Common Purpose Exposed
Ever Wondered WHY ? Common Purpose Exposed
Ever Wondered WHY ? Common Purpose Exposed
All that nulabor has done is to create and maintain the illusion of devolution,
whilst imposing ever stronger central control. Throughout the country, from
1992 onwards, there has been the setting up of community based
consultation and activity groups, such as community forums, that gave the
appearance of meaningful engagement with citizens. What was really
happening was that these groups were strictly controlled, placemen were
imposed, local people ousted, and puppets padded out the group. Then false
claims of representation of the community were made. Any existing,
genuinely bottom-up, and self-managing community group that did not
accede to ( forum ) control were destroyed and replaced. In effect, the
government was consulting with itself.
The above process was then repeated in all local, area-wide, city and
regional control structures. The controlled community groups ( for example,
forums ) were grouped into controlled alliances ( for want of a better word ).
These alliances were grouped into associations, then assemblies, and so on
in an unbroken chain to No10, via quangos, Regional Development
Associations, Regional Government Offices, etc. Another reason for the
creation of these groups is that they can be controlled in networks, meeting
and making decisions outside of the democratic structures ( and illegally in
many cases ), leading beyond their authority, imposing influence, interest and
control beyond their legal remit, and thus creating the impression of delivering
on an otherwise undeliverable policy.
Over the years, citizens have become increasingly disengaged, and the
voting figures have plummeted.
There have been attempts to re-engage citizens in politics, for example, the
Baroness Kennedy consultation, and the introduction of the doomed
Sustainable Communities Act. Why doomed? Because the same tactics, are
still being employed, by the same people. Lies, deceit, smoke and mirrors,
manipulation of meetings, are but a few of the tactics to ensure top-down
control, whilst falsely claiming representation. The current government
initiatives are simply ‘ more of the same ’ dressed differently.
The above is now used as a national template for any national or local
government consultation.
The corruption is absolute, lead from the top down, imposed through all tiers
of social and government control, down to street level. Being rotten to the
core and from the core, everything it touches it taints. Having neither the
ability nor inclination to correct itself, outside intervention is indicated.
Meanwhile, it is daily reported how our leaders lie, cheat, steal, bully and
abuse, yet there is a reticence - for fear of retribution - to using the
appropriate description - institutionalised corruption - that has repeatedly,
relentlessly, ruthlessly, systematically and cynically destroyed the lives of
anyone arbitrarily deemed to be a potential threat.
Why a charity? Because charities do not attract the same level of cynicism
and scrutiny as public authorities, they are not subject to freedom of
information laws, they are easy and naive prey for the elite, and charities are
easy organisations for strategic positioning to exert influence, interest and
control far beyond their legal remit.
In addition, where the chosen leaders are placed in a charity positioned for
strategic control, they form the perfect base for money-laundering. Where
existing charities can't be taken over, they are destroyed, and new charities
created. Where charities prove themselves to be providing a needed service,
they are targeted for privatisation, and the tax-liable jobs falsely claimed to be
employment creation. There is no job creation, just transfer.
Once the right steps are in place, the project can continue unfettered, having
control of people, publicity, processes, and pecuniary pursuits. Threats are
destroyed. All this being done covertly, with the cadre elite of the cult even
deciding who can have what information.
This statement can be extended to democracy itself. Perhaps it is not only the
government that must be replaced, but the style of government, as the
current flavour leaves such a bad taste. Our leading politicians, to whom we
are entitled to look for behavioural guidance, have failed to make the
distinction between what is legal and what it right. Finding a loophole to do
something does not make what is wrong, right. The very act of looking for a
loophole is evidence of intent to act amorally. It is no use saying that no rules
have been broken, and therefore the behaviour is OK. Those not acting in the
spirit of the law, or not capable of making the distinction between right and
wrong, have no place in our society, and certainly not as our leaders or
representatives in any government.
So now we have described what we have today, and how we arrived at this
sorry state.
The next question must be, WHY ? and Where is all this leading us?
As for those who would expose this corruption, any one arbitrarily deemed to
be a potential threat is subjected to a policy of Control or Destroy, and
ruthlessly, remorselessly and relentlessly abused.
Why is are they seemingly deliberately doing everything it can to ensure the
development of those conditions that give rise to disorder, social unrest, riots,
insurrection and even revolution ?
If the people should react as being driven, this gives excuse to impose a
dictatorship - which is, by and large, what we have had for the past several
years, with increasing impositions upon the freedoms of citizens.
To date, every law introduced for security reasons has been used against the
citizens, for no other reason than for preservation of power.
This nulabor cadre has declared war upon it citizens. Government has
become the enemy of the state. Last time this happened, heads rolled,
literally.
Sorting expenses is like moving the proverbial deck chairs. Is there any
aspect of government that is not tainted?
One reason why this issue was raised was because of the reaction to a
question raised on 5 November 2008 at the meeting of the Full Council at
Sheffield City Council.
7 the third party encourages its members to identify 12-15 year olds for
grooming before placement for so-called training without any evidence of
having carried out the statutory criminal safety checks
A year on, the third party, identified as Common Purpose, continues the same
practice. Common Purpose is a registered charity.
Here is the first example of an association between Common Purpose and
child abuse. Below is a 2009 web-site screen-shot of Common Purpose using
paedophile Jamie Rennie for their publicity purposes. It refers to the Common
Purpose 360 programme, and contains links encouraging networking.
“A well known Senior Social Worker (who has asked to remain anonymous)
told us: "These claims are of course subjective at best, and if a paedophile
has free and frank access to records of children and can come into contact
with children unsupervised [which he was able to], one cannot exclude from
the realms of possibility, that the said individual could sexually interfere with
children" "People trusted him [Rennie] due to his position within the charity
[LGBT Youth Scotland]"”
Correction:
Whilst it is not accurate to say that Jamie Rennie was a member of the local
Advisory Panel of Common Purpose, it was correct to say that he was
selected by members of the Common Purpose Advisory Panel for 'training'
and for which he was recognised as a Common Purpose 'graduate'. At the
time that Jamie Rennie was carrying out his paedophile activities the
Common Purpose Advisory Board included a senior policeman and a senior
member of the local press.
It is therefore ironic that those same people would have been part of the
system that arrested and reported upon Common Purpose graduate Jamie
Rennie. It is not known whether any evidence exists showing that Common
Purpose Advisory Group Members were aware of what Jamie Rennie was
doing.
Jamie Rennie was arrested in 2007, yet Common Purpose continued to use
his reference on their web site for their own publicity purposes and was still
there on 30 October 2009 !
Clarification:
In that area, and indeed nationally, Common Purpose has been operating its
'Your Turn' youth project for several years, including around Yorkshire. It
would therefore be appropriate for local authorities, the CRB, all government
departments, and Ofsted take joint action to ensure that all Common Purpose
youth activities were required to provide evidence that CRB checks were
carried out and that risk assessments were made. This would apply urgently
and specifically in the Jamie Rennie case, but applies nationally wherever
Common Purpose operate, not only to Your Turn projects, but all. Clearly, it is
the element of close proximity and trust with young people that attracts the
likes of Rennie.
Development:
The recent adverse publicity in the press about ofsted, for example in The
Times, may have been created for reasons other than those publicised.
However, since last November, the council has still refused to provide any
response to this issue, other than denials. The third party continues to provide
its youth 'services' to the local councils throughout South Yorkshire.
Meanwhile, it turns out that several senior council personnel are also
associated with the third party, which meets in the Town Hall, and The Star
offices, supported by the Chief Executive of the Council and The Star. In
effect, there is an elite cabal specialising in leadership that also targets young
people to join their organisation as future leaders.
It was explained that the third party has members within the council, who
decide what courses or events shall be procured ( without any tendering
process ), and from these events target selected children as potential future
leaders and coerce them into attending these residential courses.
Both the local council and the third party refuse to answer queries about this
issue.
Neither Ofsted nor CRB services have identified any exemptions that permit
Common Purpose to operate these courses with young people without its
personnel undergoing the statutory CRB checks, or the host local authorities
carrying out the mandatory risk assessments.
All that has happened since 5 November 2008 is that the citizen has been
lambasted, publicly humiliated, lied to, bullied and harassed.
Those involved with this are also involved with Common Purpose, both within
the council and from outside of the council.
CP trained West Midlands Fire Service Chief resigns after child porn arrest
(09/07/2009) West Midlands
West Midlands Fire Service chief Frank Sheehan resigns after child
porn arrest. He took the Common Purpose 20:20 course in 1998. 20:20 is a
five-day residential programme. This high-level programme is held just twice
a year. The 20:20 week includes days in both London and Brussels visiting
key institutions in the cities and examining how they operate and who holds
power. For those interested in NLP, ( Neurolinguistic programming )
practitioners PPD Learning Ltd boast West Midlands Fire Service as one of
their clients.
Why did LibDem Leader Paul Scriven lie about that citizen as he did, when
falsely accusing that citizen of making allegations of child abuse?
Was the above in the mind of Paul Scriven when he falsely accused that
citizen of making allegations of child abuse?
Paul Scriven then had his political spokesperson, Ian Turngoose, to provide
The Star with a litany of lies about the citizen that The Star published. The
line manager of the reporter that acutely quoted Paul Scriven sent damaging
and false material to the Press Complaints Commission in a doomed effort,
with the Council, to destroy that citizen.
A complaint was raised against Paul Scriven, which was then sabotaged by
executive council officers – who were graduates of Common Purpose !
A complaint about the behaviour of the council was made to Standards for
England, who agreed that the council has acted improperly, but refused to
intervene – they were published supporters of Common Purpose !
During 2008, and through 2009, strenuous efforts have been made to
establish who are the Common Purpose ‘graduates’ and supporters and
officers within and around Sheffield City Council. These efforts continue to be
unlawfully blocked, accompanied by futile false accusations, obfuscation, a
criminal, malicious adverse publicity campaign personally against that citizen,
and blatant, in-your-face lies. The council is confident that it has Common
Purpose ‘graduates’ in all the external organisations with purview, on whom
they can rely within their ‘network’, to ensure that publicity about their
activities remains contained. ( for example, South Yorkshire Police )
This is aside from the fact that Common Purpose is awarded public paid
contracts by a 'nod and a wink' via their graduates within the public sector,
rather than via open tendering process. In effect, this is illegal ‘insider
trading’, which, coupled with the actions of local authorities to flout the
Freedom of Information Act, should be more than sufficient to prompt
immediate and radical action from the Audit Commission – if it wasn’t already
infected from the top down with Common Purpose !

Civil Service Management Code 1.1 Recruitment 1.1.6 Departments and
agencies must be satisfied that recruits are able to show that they will be able
to give satisfactory service in the future and that nothing in their more recent
past is likely to bring discredit upon the department or agency or the Civil
Service in general.
Chapter 4 Principles 4.1.3
c. civil servants must not misuse their official position or information
acquired in the course of their official duties to further their private interests or
those of others. Conflicts of interest may arise from financial interests and
more broadly from official dealings with, or decisions in respect of, individuals
who share a civil servant’s private interests (for example freemasonry,
membership of societies, clubs and other organisations, and family). Where a
conflict of interest arises, civil servants must declare their interest to senior
management so that senior management can determine how best to
proceed;
From the above, Common Purpose constitute a secret organisation, for which
declaration is mandatory, with possible disciplinary measures including
dismissal for non-compliance.
Note:
The investigation into the Scottish case began in late 2007. A man who had
served time for sexually abusing a child and was on the sex offenders'
register, worked as an engineer with Crown Paints at premises in Edinburgh.
He had fitted a personal hard drive to one of the computers at his work and
either forgot to remove it or had not realised that the computer was to be sent
away for repair. A technician discovered an indecent image of a child, and
police were alerted. There was an email link that was sourced at the address
of Rennie. Operation Algebra swung into action.
The following is but one legal rationale showing why it is urgent, imperative
and mandatory for full disclosure:

Confidentiality or clarity?
Nicholas Dobson
If everyone saw the world our way, there wouldn’t be many disputes. For, as
the old cliché goes, we’d all then be singing from the same hymn sheets.
But they don’t, and we aren’t. So life often becomes a fierce competition.
Your ‘rights’ against mine. Your wish to party late and loud. Mine to have a
quiet night’s sleep.
Yours to build a mega home extension. Mine to object bitterly. And in current
point, yours to inspect the ‘Full Monty’ council accounts. Mine to plead
commercial confidentiality.
The company, therefore, sought to prevent the council from disclosing the
disputed documents, save in heavily redacted form. So, just what law was
causing all the kerfuffle? Well this is Section 15 of the Audit Commission Act
1998, which at each statutory audit enables ‘any persons interested’ to
inspect the accounts to be audited and all books, deeds, contracts, bills,
vouchers and receipts relating to them.
It also enables such persons to make copies of all or any part of the accounts
and those other documents. But, while there are confidentiality provisions in
Section 15(3) and (4), these do not extend to commercial confidentiality. They
merely cover ‘personal information’, ie, that which identifies or enables the
identification of a particular individual where the auditor considers that the
information should not be inspected or disclosed.
Given its history, he therefore thought it ‘entirely unsurprising’ the law should
permit a local elector, such as Mr Dowen, sight of the disputed documents in
this case. For the historic role of interested persons such as local government
electors in participating in the audit process would be severely diminished
without such disclosure.
But while the judge could well understand the concern about commercial
confidentiality – which could adversely affect not only Veolia but also the
council through sub-contractor demands, once they understood Veolia’s
modelling – nevertheless, ‘the plain fact is that there is no duty to keep
commercial confidentiality in Section 15’.
For, if the section applies, the council must disclose and... the section trumps
the confidentiality obligations set out in the contract’.
According to the judge, while ‘accounts’ are not defined, the 1998 Act
indicates that they are the record of the council’s financial activity over a
period and of the financial position at a particular time.
He considered it ‘plain that each of the disputed documents relate to the
council’s accounts as that phrase is to be construed in its statutory context’.
Therefore, Mr Dowen was entitled to inspect and copy the documents in
question.
It will be interesting to see to what extent this judgement dampens the
enthusiasm of external contractors in council business. But if the court ruling
endures, given the volume of lucrative local authority business – not to
mention the recession – contactors will presumably just have to learn to live
with it.
All recipients, you have had but the briefest of introductions, with but one
example of how it may be applied to your area. The same applies nationally.
Best Regards,
Stygian
- Refute any claims that activities associated with Common Purpose are
in any way private. Their training, meetings, and activities are all
purchased and resourced at the expense of the ratepayer, so all that
council officers do that is associated with Common Purpose must
therefore be public domain material.
- Obtain from the local authority a list of all costs associated with the
activities of Common Purpose, in terms of time, fees, donations and
hospitality.
- For each of the above, obtain the objective evidence demonstrating that
there is an advantage to the ratepayer ( saying ‘people felt’, etc is not
evidence ! )
- If any contracts or services involved minors, i.e. the Your Turn project,
ensure that the council had carried out the CRB checks and held such
proofs. ( Duty of Care and Due Diligence )
- For each of the above, obtain a copy of the council minutes of meetings
at which the elected members approved of the policy relating to its
association with Common Purpose, and the extent of any delegated
authority given to officers to deliver upon that authority
Ps
Under the FOI Act, a request can be refused if it's vexatious, but this has to
be an issue about the request itself, not the person making it. Just because
you are a really annoying person is not sufficient grounds for turning down
your freedom of information applications.
In this case the request, along with many other requests by the same person,
was made through the whatdotheyknow site. This site is certainly regarded as
very vexing by numerous public authority FOI officers, who particularly don't
like the way it automatically publishes all the correspondence in connection
with a request.
In a different case, the High Court has just ruled that there is nothing
necessarily wrong in making a meta-request - a request about how your other
requests have been handled. The journalist Matt Davis put such a question to
the Home Office, suspecting that he was getting worse treatment than the
general public in the 48 requests he'd made to the Home Office (this was
over a two-year period).
that "meta-requests should be dealt with in the same way as any other
requests".
