Thanet Council. Open for Dodgy Business.

# Pleasurama: British Virgin island tax haven company – no details of Directors or funders for Kent’s largest seafront planning application

# Manston airport: noise and air monitors removed by Infratil and TDC

# Infratil and Environment Agency: airport built on the drinking water supply and polluting the sea with aviation fuel

# Thor mercury factory: closed in 1988 by Health and Safety but not closed and water and soil polluted

# Richboro power station: derelict 30 years with 1950’s brown asbestos technology

# Asbestos in schools and public buildings: 100 deaths in Thanet in 10 years

# KCC and Environment Agency: widespread water and soil pollution: no cleanup in 20 years

# China Gateway: TDC and KCC arms-length company of TDC and KCC officials - and donations to both political parties for Thanet’s largest-ever planning application

# China Gateway: China trips funded by the developer for SEEDA cargo warehouses on the drinking water supply

# Thanet water supply: polluted and extra water pumped in from West Kent

# Missing tram shelter insurance money: 0% but £25,000 pay rises for our £130,000 council officials - and extra self-assessed payments and expenses for councillors on committees

# No TDC councillor costs published as yet – nor MP’s family wages

# Military Arches: listed building semi derelict and Granville collapsed

# Westwood Cross: road to nowhere and out-of-town shopping centre near-the-town-centres

# TDC sleaze report on Deal Council witheld from public

# No Kent TV broadcast of TDC council and committee meetings

# Regeneration by fireball or carpark: Pleasurama, Dreamland, Ramsgate Lido

# No KCC Cabinet scrutiny of failed councils


Sack the Gang of Four. Recall the councillors and MP's. Suspend payoffs and pensions.

TDC is rated in the bottom 10% of all 440 UK councils by the Audit Commission: the Government's own auditor.

Ramsgate Town council but still no Margate Town Council.

Time To Change Thanet.

UNMAS 2025 Landmine report letter on 48k or 3k deaths

  UNMAS & Geneva/New York Contacts Agnes Marcaillou – Former Director, UNMAS Email : marcaillou@un.org François-Xavier De Cloedt – Programme Officer, UNMAS Geneva Email : decloedt@un.org Mohammed Qazilbash – Chief of Programme, UNMAS Email : qazilbash@un.org Camille Gosselin – Public Information Officer, UNMAS Email : gosselin@un.org To: United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS)     Subject: Clarification and Escalation on Explosive Weapon Casualty Reporting, Treaty Enforcement, and Regional Accountability Dear Agnes and UNMAS team, I write to express concern regarding the framing and statistical aggregation in the Secretary-General’s 2025 report on mine action , particularly the cited figure of 48,384 conflict-related deaths attributed to “explosive weapons.” This figure, while alarming, appears to conflate landmines , UXO , cluster munitions , IEDs , artillery , and air-dropped ordnance — without disaggregating by weapon type, treaty coverage, or operation...

Policy #5: Development not Over-Development

As MP I will halt the development boom of Concrete Kent in Thanet. We are overbuilding far beyond South East targets as mere property speculation for the construction industry. I will insist construction is refocused on renovating both public housing and empty properties: over 3,000 empty properties in Thanet - for years - before one brick is laid on new build. The idea of a 4th Town at Westwood Cross should also be ripped up as property and Planning overkill given vacant properties, an ageing population and a failed economy. And on prime farmland when Climate Change is a major issue and Food Security in preserving our farmland to reduce food imports. And of course major derelict brownfield sites such as Manston airport, Richboro: derelict longer than in operation, and many more. Councils are notorious for being focused on property and construction where the main parties get their kickbacks for handing out Planning permissions. Far greater scrutiny of the Planning system is required. A...

The Open Stockpile: Noise Psyops, Torture Tech, and the Hillsboro law

  The Open Stockpile: Noise Psyops, Torture Tech, and the Hillsboro law The cupboard is open. From white phosphorus to water cannons, from cluster munitions to long-range acoustic devices (LRADs), the global stockpile of “non-lethal” and “compliance” weapons is no longer hidden. It’s deployed—on streets, in prisons, at borders, and in black sites. And the legal frameworks that should constrain them? Often vague, complicit, or absent. Noise as Weapon: Psyops and Torture Noise isn’t neutral. From Guantánamo to Gaza, sound has been weaponised to break bodies and minds. The U.S. military’s use of Metallica, Eminem, and Barney the Dinosaur in 24-hour loops wasn’t entertainment—it was psychological warfare. LRADs, marketed as “crowd control,” emit piercing tones that induce nausea, disorientation, and long-term hearing damage. These are not anomalies—they’re doctrine. The UN Convention Against Torture prohibits methods that cause severe physical or mental suffering. Yet “no-touch” tortur...
