Mon 6th march 2023 06:35am


A HBC Council Chief has been accused of covering up a formal investiation that would have seen two senior council officials dismissed for Gross Misconduct had it been properly investigated....

The faces of evil ! HBC Finance Chief Chris Little (Left) & Assistant Chief Solicitor Neil Wilson (Right) would have faced the sack had the matter been properly investigated by Hartlepool Borough Council with claims of a "cover up" undertaken by the councils Managing Director



Both HBC's Chief Finance Officer Chris Little & Assistant Chief Solicitor Neil Wilson reportedly seen investigations called for by a local resident instantly shut down by the councils Managing Director Denise McGugkin, despite significant evidence to show that both officers had acted “dishonestly” in their course of conduct to harass a member of the public as well as making spurrious allegations about the individuals alleged behaviour that were later found to be "false", "malicious" & made only in a manner sought to deliberately cause damage to that persons reputation....

It comes after claims both Neil Wilson & Chris Little added a member of the public to the councils Employee Protection Register back in 2019 following claims the member of the public had supposedly made “threats” towards a council officer at Hartlepool's Civic Centre....

The two council officers made repeated spurrious claims that the member of the public "assaulted" a council member of staff..... all the claims made by the two officers were found to have been 'malicious', with no evidence fund in support of thier claims....


Further claims were then made in relation to the member of the public supposedly “assaulting” a member of council staff.....All claims put forward by both council officers were undertaken without any supporting evidence.


The member of the public at the centre of the allegations maintains that he attended the councils Civic Centre back in 2019 in order to “warn” a council officer that their persistent harassment was causing both the member of the public & members his household significant distress & that the matter would be raised to the police if it continued.

A report was then given to Cleveland Police shortly after, with the incident logged by an officer & a crime reference number given. The incident was reportedly recorded as a Hate Crime...


Not happy with making malicious claims, the two council officers then sought about trying to restrict the local residents council services such as Bin Collections...

The two council officers in emails obtained through a freedom of infomration request had tried to restrict the householders bin collections as well as other council services.


Its further claimed that in emails obtained through a recent freedom of information request, email correspondence back & forth between Mr Little, the councils Chief Finance officer & Mr Wilson as the councils Assistant Chief Solicitor documented ways onto which both officers were to allegedly “deal” with the member of the public concerned, including suspending some council services to that persons home address such as bin collections, as well as redstributing the local residents social media profile picture taken from their social media page to council officers in support of the baseless claims they'd sought to purport about the individual.


Its said that both council officers then proceeded to redistribute the baseless claims about the member of the public to other council members of staff, as well as passing on the member of the publics profile picture taken from his social media account to twelve other council staff members....


So serious were the allegations....... the council had to "whitewash" it as quickly as possible !

Investigations into the council officers branded "a whitewash" & reported to be "commonplace" within the corrupt organisation....


Both the councils Chief Executive as well as two other external authorities believed to be the Solicitors Regulations Authority & the CIPFA chose not to investigate the matter against the two council officers any further despite there being significant evidence to show that both council officers sought to purport malicious & highly damaging allegations about a member of the public that they knew were both baseless & libellous, with the member of the public calling it “a whitewash” undertaken by a known corrupt organisation that will stop at nothing to protect its own....


Hartlepool Borough Councils reportedly been facing increasing public calls to be declared an authority with no public confidence following concerns the orgainsation is now venturing ever closer to the activities to that of a dangerous publicly funded criminal enterprise that's inching ever closer towards some extremelly concerning extremist activities.

One vulnerable Hartlepool woman was forced to leave the town after HBC whitewashed an investiagtion into a council officers "harassement" & "threats" leading to the vulnerable resident contemplating suicide....


Four years ago, its claimed another senior council officer was reported over their activities towards a vulnerable female member of the public who was reportedly driven to the brink of suicide through the actions of a rougue Hartlepool Council Officer.


The claim refered to "threats" from the council officer towards the vulnerable Hartlepool woman, as well as claims of "agressive recovery tactics" & threats to apply charging orders to the vulnerable womans home in a tirade of harassement that led to the vulnerable Hartlepool female requiring hospital treatment. ..


The vulnerable female was forced to leave Hartlepool after the incdent.


That investigation reportedly came back with “no further action” against the council officer who still to this day remains within his post with claims numerous other members of the public have suffered smilar harassement & abuse from council officers only to find complaints raised into their behaviour are quickly brought to an end by those complaint being quickly brushed under the carpet, with senior officers quickly "closing ranks" in order to ensure that complaints against senior officials are dealt with quickly & more importantly in the councils favour, in a situation thats now drawing significant concerns that Hartlepool Borough Council is institutionally corrupt & requires urgent government intervention, with the reputation of the local council said to be in "ruins", & very few external businesses seeking to have any affiliation with a local council thats deemed by its locals to be so corrupt....that it needs to be removed from public duties altogether & the funding of this extremist & dangerous organisation described by many as a "cult" withdrawn....
