No doubt those that i sought to expose for being criminals will soon be posting on here with more lies and filth.<br /><br />Make no bones of this, what i have exposed is a multy million pound fraud, read about it at the OFT under 'debt sale and transfer' or 'assignment' and you will see what i am exposing as well as a number of companies who are claiming to be able to write off debt. So much of it is scam.<br /><br />There is a high court case coming up soon in which i have thousands of cases of consumers being ripped off.<br /><br />I resigned because i need more time and energy to prepare for these cases and the fact that the national party wouldnt support me in this endeavour. I dont want the hard work and efforts of our local party tarnished by someting that i am involved in. By distancing myself from politics i am also removing some of the channels for acusations of these criminals such as i am profiteering from politics or using political influence in closeing them down.<br /><br />In simple terms, dont believe everything you read on the web and always remember , if it looks too good to be true - it could very well be the next scam.'</i>rob's unclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001074396029714388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-44106680611407018762010-01-20T00:51:37.167+00:002010-01-20T00:51:37.167+00:00It certainly has the look and feel of a set-up of ...It certainly has the look and feel of a set-up of some kind rather than a genuine email from DJ; the C4 News report is at: http://tinyurl.com/yj6axcerob's unclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001074396029714388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-54614312854292820492010-01-20T00:17:30.262+00:002010-01-20T00:17:30.262+00:00There could be more to this than meets the eye, Ia...There could be more to this than meets the eye, Iain. <br /><br />How 'fortunate' for some that, when David Jack is in the midst of a major court case against alleged loan sharking of millions of pounds that -oops!- this email suddenly appears.<br /><br />As Harry Hill would say: "What are the chances of that?!"<br /><br />wv = biled.
