There is a very fine line between public censorship and the need to counter the threat of terrorism - whilst I will support fighting terrorism anyway this County can , the Govt.of the day should not use terrorism as an excuse to censor a number of other means of communication etc.

Good on them!! although I'm sure the bailiffs will return & if they do hopefully the people who prevented them from evicting mr Tom Crawford today can turn up in even more numbers & do the same again?

Since October 2010, Bradford & Bingley have been managed as part of UKAR (UK Asset Resolution Limited), a holding company established by the government to manage the publicly owned mortgages of Bradford & Bingley and Mortgage Express, together with NRAM plc.

 

So whilst your mortgage remains with Bradford & Bingley or Mortgage Express, we are now part of UKAR. Together we are working to develop an even better understanding of the needs of mortgage customers, so we can apply this specialist knowledge to help you make the most of your financial situation.

 

UK Asset Resolution Limited (UKAR) is the holding company established to bring together the government-owned businesses of Bradford & Bingley plc (B&B) and NRAM plc.

 

Together, the combined organisation supports around 467,000 customers with £61.2 billion of loans, with some 2,150 colleagues based at its main sites in West Yorkshire and the North East.

UK Financial Investments Limited (UKFI) manages HM Treasury’s 100% shareholding in UKAR Limited.

 

On 8 October 2013 UKAR Corporate Services Limited (UKARcs), a subsidiary business of UKAR, became responsible for the administration of the Government's Help to Buy Mortgage Guarantee Scheme on behalf of HM Treasury.

 

UK Asset Resolution (UKAR), the holding company for Bradford & Bingley plc (B&B) and NRAM plc (NRAM), has appointed Credit Suisse to commence a marketing process for a potential sale of a portfolio of performing residential mortgages from the legacy books of B&B, NRAM and Mortgage Express.

 

The completion of any sale will not affect the terms and conditions of the mortgages sold, and the continued fair treatment of customers will be a key consideration for UKAR in assessing the merits of a sale.

 

The proposed sale is in line with UKAR's strategy and is part of the orderly wind-down of the closed mortgage books of both B&B and NRAM. UKAR will only complete the transaction if the sale price achieved represents value to the taxpayer.

 

UKAR was established on 1 October 2010 to facilitate the orderly management of the closed mortgage books of both Bradford & Bingley and NRAM to maximise value for taxpayers. The Executive team of UKAR manages both organisations focusing on this common objective, while ensuring that both companies continue to treat customers fairly, deliver consistently high levels of service and support those customers facing financial difficulty.



 

Don't believe them. They will give you a mortgage with one hand and take your house with the other. As somebody has commented in the Nottingham Post, UKAR is a state owned company, we are all in this together.

Police End Illegal Occupation of Bodenham Manor, Herefordshire

 

West Mercia Police officers have entered the site of Bodenham Manor in Herefordshire this morning to deal with people who, it is believed, have illegally occupied the property since Saturday afternoon (16 August).

 

A man in his 50s was arrested for burglary after a caravan was broken into on the site over the weekend.

 

A man his 40s was arrested on suspicion of the offence of squatting in a residential building* and seven further people were summonsed to appear at Hereford Magistrates’ Court to be dealt with for the same offence.

 

Three people who were in the grounds of the manor, but not in the manor itself, were directed to leave under criminal justice and public order legislation served notices to leave the site, which they did.

 

Superintendent Sue Thomas, policing commander for Herefordshire, said: “Since this group of people moved into Bodenham Manor on Saturday, officers have maintained a small presence there while we assessed their legal status and whether any criminal offences had occurred.

 

“Throughout, we have liaised with both them and the owner of the property. He is a private owner who bought the manor this year and has been attempting to renovate the building while living on site in a caravan, which was broken into this weekend.

 

“The last week has been very distressing for him because he has felt intimidated by those on the site and unable to enter his legally held property. It is not acceptable that a group of people can take over someone’s home and claim it for themselves.

 

“The operation was generally peaceful and the majority of people we dealt with were co-operative and we thank them for that. We are satisfied we have cleared the site and it can now be returned to its lawful owner.â€

 

*Section 144 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (LAPOA) sets out, with effect from 1 September 2012, a specific offence of squatting in a residential building.

 

Issued: Thursday 21 August 2014

Just been watching the UK Column live programme. Guy Taylor has been arrested and police have raided both of his properties at Bodenham Manor and Peartree Farm, Carey. Appears there was a heavy presence to carry out the operation and comment has been made about the use of the police helicopter regularly over the last few days at no doubt great cost to the tax payer. No coverage in the Hereford Times as usual even though the incident is on their doorstep. Will post the link to UK Column interview when it is archived.

 

Guy is pleased he has been arrested as he can now get a trial with jury to expose the goings on within our society.

Anecdotal reports on Twitter that 70-100 Police were involved today ... No reports of trouble. Presumably because of the numbers of Police involved.

 

I find Guy Taylor very hard to watch on tv because he just rattles on about corrupt this and corrupt that. The whole lot is portrayed by him as a conspiracy ...

 

I don't know what claim he has on that property and I don't know who this 'owner' is that apparently 'bought' Bodenham Manor. Who did he buy it off? 

 

Anyone got the potted version of the timeline of the recent history of this disputed property?

Just been put on Hereford Times. Linda Taylor interviewed on UK Column today.

 

I haven't had time to listen to all that interview but Linda Taylor says her husband was not trespassing as it was his property.

 

The property was repossessed in April and sold at auction to a new owner. So he is viewed by the new owner, and the system, to be be a trespasser. Guy Taylor knows this at the moment but has gone back in as he disputes the repossession made on the back of what he claims are fraudulent documents.

 

There is no other way to progress this other than going through the proper legal process regarding this alleged 'dodgy' loan and alleged forged signature. 

 

There is no mileage whatsoever in bursting back into Bodenham Manor and squatting. Because that will lead to something like today.

 

Some people have suggested that the Police have gone beyond their powers by getting involved as they did but this new 2012 Squatting Legislation gives them a specific power of arrest for what they did. So they went in and exercised their powers.

 

Guy is pleased he has been arrested as he can now get a trial with jury to expose the goings on within our society.

 

I have looked at the new squatting legislation and it's a summary offence only (max. 6 months jail) and can only be heard at Magistrates Court. However if there was damage caused/electricity abstracted or if a burglary is alleged then there is scope for the defendant to elect a Crown Court job. Depends very much on what he's charged with as to whether he could elect a jury trial.

This 'incident' today has caused me to look at the internet ... Guy Taylor's run in with British Gas is discussed here It seems he was taken to Court over a disputed electric bill. He was being charged the wrong tariff for energy ... At what stage that should have been picked up is something that I'm overly interested in but there seems to be a suggestion that he was owed a refund over the tariff ... Obviously gloated over on the thread as some sort of win ... I don't like the tone of the celebration .... And I would not class the Utility Company as 'fraudulent' for charging an incorrect tariff ... These things happen ... British Gas have lots of customers' ... Mistakes happen ...

'NOT' was the word missing there ... dunno what happened there and this 30 minute correction time frame needs addressing ... Colin?

Fraud - deceit, trickery, sharp practice, or breach of confidence, perpetrated for profit or to gain some unfair or dishonest advantage.

 

 
Oliver Wotherspoon, from Bolton, spends £150 a month on energy bills
But he returned from holiday to find he had been charged 100 times more
British Gas had taken £16,670.57 directly from his savings account
The energy giant said error was due to 'incorrect meter reading' 
But it took Mr Wotherspoon 11 days - and a lawyer - to get his money back

I've not investigated the link but I would suggest that sort of error is incompetence ... But I share your concerns over the Utillity people ...

The Electricity Utilities are referrred to in this early case in 2011 against Guy Taylor in Hereford Magistrates Court which is part of the ongoing saga at Bodenham Manor. I paid for a search at Land Registry yesterday and the result is that Bodenham Manor was sold.

 

Proprietorship Register

This register specifies the class of title and identifies the owner. It contains any entries that affect the right of disposal.
 
Title absolute
1 (02.07.2014) PROPRIETOR: JAMES DAVID DAVIES of Fiddington Farm, Fiddington, Tewkesbury GL20 7BJ.
2 (02.07.2014) The price stated to have been paid on 13 June 2014 was £305,000.
 
So Mr Davies appears to have brought the Manor in good faith, unless he has been hood-winked into assisting the removal of the property from Guy Taylor illegally. No doubt a reputable solicitor was used in the "sale". It will interesting to see how Guy goes about investigating this and he will do.

This is probably the best topic ever and people you should look at this very closely not only did they steal the property but stole cars and sold them again illegal this is a sad reflection of the way are society is going private courts are now used fact the average man in the street is not aware of what is happening because you are all sat in your armchair looking at the tv and reading your newspapers thinking well it has nothing to do with me well you are wrong wake up that home of yours when you are sat in your armchair can be taken away from you at anytime why Guy has been targeted is because he has spoken out about the corruption in our society and has touched on some fine nerves guy supported a man in Nottingham who worked all his life and suffered ill health the mortgage lender changed his mortgage without telling him a number of years ago the judge sided with the mortgage company you still sat in your armchairs still think you are okay if you have been watching the news and reading your paper you will note that the tories and labour are changing our constitution to bring it in line with the EU when that happens look up you are about to get the suprise of your life all your legal rights will be taken away think i am joking think again go on the internet youtube and listen to the UK Column an independant news company that gives you the news you will not see in the mainstream mediawake up Hereford people.
