Left for holiday -
in mail letter and details from Havant 50+ Forum
On the morning
of the first Saturday in October,
Jo and I left for a holiday in the New Forest. Just before leaving, I
sent a few E-mails, some a little urgent; they included an
E-mail to Chris Stanley, Acting Chairman of
Warblington and Denvilles
Residents’ Association.
As we did not
leave until, almost, midday, the post arrived before our departure. it
included a brochure and other information from
Havant Borough 50+ Forum.

Letter from
Jonathan Morris, Managing Director, Business Link Hampshire
The post arrived
late, as usual, these days; Emma picked it up from the porch as she was
getting some things out of her car.
There was not a great deal, a letter from Business
Link Southeast, a letter that turned out to be from Havant Borough
Council to do with energy efficiency and houses, and a catalogue for Jo,
which, it transpired, she already seemed to have been sent a copy of.
The most interesting of those was the one from Business Link Southeast.
It transpired that the letter itself was from
Jonathan Morris, Managing Director, Business Link Hampshire .
That particular letter contained a surprise. Specifically it was a
letter from
Jonathan Morris, Managing Director of Business Link Hampshire,
albeit one of the multiple copy, version, printed signature type.
The
Business Link letter was about transfer of information to
SEEDA,
South East
England Development Agency, though included the surprising wording:
"Although
you have requested no further contact from Business Link, we will
occasionally purchase data from third party suppliers. To avoid
inadvertently contacting you through such a process we continue to hold
only your contact details on file so we can check it against these
bought lists and continue to ensure you don’t receive anything from us
in the future."
That came as a complete surprise as I had not only never requested
Business Link Hampshire not to contact
me, I had spent the last decade doing just the opposite, trying to
obtain assistance from Business Link Hampshire but being denied such
assistance.
At no time have I ever made any such request. On the contrary, I have
been trying to obtain advice and assistance from
Business Link Hampshire
for the last decade but have been discriminated against over that
period, had my time and resources wasted. Among other things, I found
that there is no protection from such treatment and redress for
discrimination; see my Web Page on Business Link Hampshire, Business
Link Wessex as it was at one time. Actually, it is more fundamental than
that. There are other rogue public bodies in Hampshire and there is no
protection from them either.
The problem with
Business Link Hampshire goes back long before Jonathan
Morris took charge and I doubt that he knows anything about it, yet. The
letter was a stereotype one with his name on it. besides, before
Jonathan Morris took charge of Business Link Hampshire, a few months
before which I was given to
understand that he had an extremely good reputation.
It had long become obvious that Business Link Hampshire was either
totally incompetent, or that someone within Business Link Hampshire was
discriminating against me and working against me. Given that the
situation had gone on since 1999, it hardly seemed likely that it was
down to pure incompetence, or even coincidence; therefore, the only
reasonable conclusion was that it was deliberate, amounting to abuse of
position and abuse of power as well as being, I would have thought,
illegal. That it was deliberate fitted with what one employee of
Business Link Hampshire, who I had contacted about help with building
web sites, in the the early 2000s, telling me that there had been a
management instruction not to respond to me. An hour, or so, afterwards,
David Bartlett, Business Development Director, Business Link Hampshire
had 'phoned to deny that had happened, said he would send me a Faxback
and that when I returned it something would be arranged. The Faxback
arrived, I completed it and returned it; nothing happened.
In 2004 I approached Business Link Sussex for help,
Business Link Hampshire heard about it,
invited me back, I met David Bartlett at the
Langstone
Hotel, Hayling Island, and nothing
resulted, my time and resources were wasted. There was a little more to
it than that, including a telephone call from
Sam Bartlett, of Brighton Films, about my non-engineering side; that all fell away and Sam, in an
E-mail, said he had just been doing his father, David Bartlett, a
favour. There was also a meeting, arranged by David Bartlett, with
an Officer from Portsmouth City Council and Roger Sherlock of
Havant Borough
Council. I arrived at the
appointed time, only to be told that Havant Borough Council was having
an Audit and that Roger could not come. I found that very odd as I knew
Roger Sherlock well; he had a reputation of being absolutely straight
and honest before i met him and that had been precisely how I found him.
It was strange that the meeting had been arranged for when Roger could
not be present but then perhaps not so strange. The meeting used up my
time and resources, again, but I got absolutely nowhere, yet again, plus
honest and trustworthy Roger Sherlock new nothing about what went
on at the meeting, or afterwards.
In any event, since my esoteric, Healer, Psychic side is rated as being
so valuable by various business professionals, including Business Link
Sussex, it is inevitable that Business Link Hampshire ahs cost the
region it is supposed to serve and is paid out of public funds to serve,
a very great deal of business. On the basis of the advice given me and
the valuation put on those aspects of me, a minimum of 10% on local
tourism, Business Link Hampshire has cost
Hampshire and the South of England at least tens of millions of Pounds
in lost business. since the situation ahs gone on since 1999, arguably,
Business Link Hampshire has cost its own
region hundreds of millions of Pounds in lost business. That is without
including the tens of millions of Pounds in engineering business that my
original project, based in the South of England and at
Brunel University,
would have brought, had it not been wrecked.
Having had an E-mail from Business Link Hampshire
on 10th September 2009 and the letter from
Jonathan Morris, the Managing Director, today I decided to try
logging on to my supposed account at Business Link Hampshire by going to
the supplied link (http://www.businesslinkwessex.co.uk/MyAccount)
but was unable to do so, the following page (http://www.businesslinkwessex.co.uk/MyAccount/Default.aspx)
coming up with the response “Sorry
we were unable to log you on.
” Clearly, someone had disabled, or removed, my account, and/or made
arrangements to deny me access to Business Link. Equally clearly,
someone at Business Link Hampshire is determined to prevent me
progressing in the region, or elsewhere for that matter.

Business Link
Southeast and the letter from
Jonathan Morris, Managing Director, Business Link Hampshire
I
made a telephone call to Business Link Southeast, specifically to
someone at a Business Link outside Hampshire, to discuss the wording fo
