Poor Communication

Posted on January 06, 2010 by Unknown


From the Ed:



Some of you may be interested to know that I wrote to Jack Straw back in November about Ben.  One of his minions fobbed me off with a letter saying that as I am not a Blackburn constituent I should write to my own MP or to the House of Commons.  I was a bit puzzled by this, having sent my letter to the London address in the first place, so I contacted Lord Ramsbotham, who made a comment on the Guardian article about Ben’s continued incarceration being “unnecessary and expensive”. On his instigation, I wrote again to our Jack.  That was over a month ago. Still no response – not even an acknowledgement.  I don’t think we can blame the postal strike, Xmas, or the snow for this lack of communication.  I am now going to try e-mailing him, although the address I was given is not very encouraging: general.queries@justice.gsi.gov.uk
