If I had nothing to hide I'd be on Hartlepool TV like a shot to give my side of the events

Seems that some of the Labour group aren't talking to HTV  -  full stop.

Exactly jeffh, I really find it difficult to understand the mentality of the labmob group, they flatly ignore reasonable requests to keep Hartlepool residents informed of decisions that affect the them by refusing to engage with HTV.

Instead, they rely on the half arsed attempts by the councils own spin department to promote themselves rather than the issues faced by the town, all they are achieving is to increase the scepticism felt by the public.

Openness, Transparency, Accountability.......Not in Hartlepool under the LabMob

Easy to answer that Fred they will be under orders not to do interviews with HTV., they might give answers that doesn't suit the mob.

I'm told there was a flood at the Rifty a little while ago. Such was the damage that areas of the building required new carpets. This was of course a golden opportunity to use the ones allegedly ripped up and stored from the CIL after someone didn't like the colour. However, word leaking out of HBC is that new carpets were ordered. So presumably the ones the council allege were saved and stored from the CIL are still in storage waiting for an even better opportunity to be utilised than in a council owned building with damaged carpets. . .

An 'unincorporated association' is an organisation set up through an agreement between a group of people who come together for a reason other than to make a profit (for example, a voluntary group or a sports club).

You don't need to register an unincorporated association, and it doesn't cost anything to set one up.

Individual members are personally responsible for any debts and contractual obligations.

If you make a profit
If the association does start trading and makes a profit, you'll need to pay Corporation Tax and file a Company Tax Return in the same way as a limited company.  room hire, bingo, were is all the money going to? is the rifty a charity or not

I put a FOI request into HSBC to find out how much HSBC is funding the Rifty Youth Project after I found out that the accounts of several other charities were obscenely late being submitted to the Charities Commission, I haven't heard anything back since. Me thinks some bottoms will be whimpering if it comes out to light that the "charity" may have gone over its 5k lack of reporting threshold many times over!

are we any further on this subject ??

Linda Harvey, Rifty Youth Project Manager, may be the person to ask about the actual financial status of the Rifty Youth.......Is it a charity, does it receive funding from the council, as a council community centre are the accounts available to the public.

This info is from a link on the posts fb page... Barclay is visiting the place there is a photo.

If you click on the link it takes you to the council website and gives the blurb about the Rifty......The name of the manager in the first paragraph is the first time I have seen such information.

Nice too see Mrs Harvey has got her granddaughter in the photo with some of Hartlepool's political powerhouses, she also gets to work with her if I'm reading the photo description correctly

Is the Rifty a shrine where all the Labour minions have to make pilgrimage to and pay their dues and receive a blessing from the Bishop?
