| Brent Cross Shopping Centre Capitalise on Brian Colemans Parking Policy |
 |
| Lodge Lane Car Park lies virtually empty on first Saturday in December |
One local trader who I know yesterday described Coleman as "The grinch who stole Christmas". In the coming year, I predict many small shops will cease trading. The boarded up shops will be a testament to Coleman and his incompetence. Sadly as it's peoples livelyhoods which are being destroyed, this is
not just a "policy debate". I wonder how many will be wishing Councillor Coleman a merry Christmas.
If you support your local traders, please sign this now
And for those of you who are interested, I found this entry in Brian Colemans gifts and hospitality register, purely coincidental I'm Sure
| 04-JUL-11 | Lunch at the Haven, High Street Whetstone, N20 | Mr Tom Nathan Managing Director - Brent Cross Shopping Centre |

Today is a day of interesting footnotes with a gallic twist. Mrs Angry notes with amusement that the Brent X billboard with the positive message about free parking displays the name of JCDecaux, a company not unknown to Brian Coleman. M Pierre Jeanjean of Decaux I believe has kindly taken our starving Cabinet member and GLA member out for lunch at least once, in June, at a chophouse, unless I am very much mistaken. Decaux are rumoured to have wanted to have run the Boris bike scheme, as they do with a similar one in Paris, but sadly it was not possible for reasons to do with the limits on advertising or some such problem.
JCDecaux is proud to have a long association with the borough. In Lib-Lab days it helped to set up public internet access in the street.
The trial scheme in Barnet featured "three kiosks designed and developed by JCDecaux, and integrated into street furniture such as bus shelters and columns to minimise street clutter. The kiosks are located in the centres of Edgware, Chipping Barnet and North Finchley, and allow local residents completely free broadband 24-hour access to the Internet. This access is screened, with certain subjects restricted to ensure that residents are not subjected to anything unpleasant."
(Currently, access to Barnet's Audit Committee minutes, and to Soupman Offord's blog site would be barred, presumably.)
"Commenting on the installation, JCDecaux's Head of City Relations Karen Smith said: We are delighted by the success of the interactive kiosk pilot scheme. It is an excellent development in our successful partnership with the London Borough of Barnet."
So not only is the parasite kept at public expense rather than doing a genuine job of work, the smelly fat toad also secures his sustinence by freebies.
