And then they had to move it because the invites had not gone out in time and people had not had the statutory notice. The new date clashed because I was at a National Housing Federation Conference in Birmingham with the Chair of Venture Housing Association (HQ in Kensington). However, having been to 37 Kensington Regeneration meeting in 2009, of one sort or another, I have a pretty good record.

So I would be curious to know. <br /><br />What meeting was it, this meeting that you claim we failed to turn up to? And where was our invite to it? <br /><br />I dont know, even today after all your blogging, where it was, when or at what time or what its title was etc. <br /><br />Still at least they managed to invite Colin, so I expect everyone was cheered immensely and we were not missed at all. <br /><br />Shurely?<br /><br />A Labour CouncillorA Labour Councillornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551006646606764608.post-55366853988863887252009-10-23T12:57:22.512+01:002009-10-23T12:57:22.512+01:00I had something else in my diary on Wednesday, whi...I had something else in my diary on Wednesday, which is why I couldn't attend the Annual Meeting. Anyone who knows me will know that I've never run away from an argument. <br /><br />I'm accoutable to the people who elect me, not the Kensington Regeneration Board and as far as I'm concerned I've explained my opposition to the sucession strategy to my constituents at the last Kensington Fields Neighbourhood Assesmbly. I have yet to meet a constituent in central ward who actually supports what is being proposed. Maybe you can contradict me. I've also met privately with the Chief Executive of Kensington Regeneration to explain my position as a matter of courtesy.<br /><br />I don't know who all these angry residents were on Wednesday night, but suspect they might be members of the KR/CIC boards who have a vested interest in the sucession strategy. They are, of course, entitled to their view that the Kensington regeneration sucession strategy is right, but I - and the majority of residents I represent think it's poor value for money and unaccoutable.

There were lots of members of the public there so it is possible he was hidden from view. Cllr Sidorczuk was spotted there.
