In March 2006, amid a cloud of controversy and allegations of generous backhanders to those who voted through (or abstained) on the proposed development - four Hackney councillors decide to impose on Dalston a bus garage and towerblocks for private housing at Dalston Junction - and the destruction of a unique and historical theatre. Despite this being the biggest change to Dalston since the arrival of the railway in 1870, accountant and Council member Simon Tesler didn't bother to turn up to the meeting (citing a more pressing meeting - with a "private" client).<BR/><BR/>Delusions of grandeur? Cllr Simon Tesler claims he speaks on behalf of the <B>entire</B> Hackney multi faith majority members (including, presumably, the Quakers and Unitarians). He regards same sex civil partnerships as an abomination along with, I guess, the public stoning of women who dare to speak in public and the death sentence for those who wear buttons and fabrics of mixed fibres.<BR/><BR/>Cllr Simon Tesler is a fully paid up member of the Monster Raving Loony Party.observer's friendnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-808182390206566006.post-39159418475249402492007-07-10T19:32:00.000+01:002007-07-10T19:32:00.000+01:00Sorry, I forgot to say it was in the Jewish Tribune, April 19th 2007 - before the consultation was completed - the article is titled 'Building extension victory for N16.Jane Holgatehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05733208887797369071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-808182390206566006.post-8092960472085506152007-07-10T19:23:00.000+01:002007-07-10T19:23:00.000+01:00Hi Quink<BR/>This was Councillor Simon Tesler<BR/>janeJane Holgatehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05733208887797369071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-808182390206566006.post-22678055241831491102007-07-10T15:47:00.000+01:002007-07-10T15:47:00.000+01:00Which councillor was quoted in the press, and where?Quinkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07637695560474948613noreply@blogger.com
