Along with other readers I am disap...Thank you HG,<br /><br />Along with other readers I am disappointed with the facebook message that was read out by the BBC. I am used to nasty comments being made about me, but the comments about HG were unjust, hurtful and racist.<br /><br />I have commented on the facebook message above. Whilst Mr Wallace may have overall responsibility for Radio Jersey he would not have had a hand in broadcasting the message.<br /><br />Before the facebook message was broadcast, its contents should have checked, apart from being racist it was inaccurate. Had the BBC read my letter they would have seen on the first page I had written, she was arrested from her home whilst still in her night attire." <br /><br />Therefore it was wrong of the BBC to state that she was not local and lived rough.<br /><br />To be fair to Radio Jersey, although I circulated my letter to a number of the media, to the best of my knowledge it is the only one to date who has acknowledge receipt of the letter and covered the matter.<br /><br />I thought the report it presented after the 7am news was fair and when I was interviewed after the 8am news, it was rightly challenging and I was able to put a strong case as to why the Steel Report should be shredded.<br /><br />It is a pity that the facebook message was broadcast and I hope that the BBC will take the appropriate action to remedy the matter.<br /><br />Bob Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01834363721495974167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-64321367036873041032015-11-12T09:54:10.001+00:002015-11-12T09:54:10.001+00:00Bob, will you publish this?

I have been reading the comments over the last day and have been comforted by them.<br /><br />Thank you and all commentors for kind and supportive words and thank you Bob for your work here.<br /><br />It is devastating, damaging and disruptive to my life that this inexcusable behaviour by the JEP and BBC Jersey are continuing to act like this, all I can do is try to go on living, although any of you reading my daily blog 'Life after the Diocese' will see that this matter is causing me a lot of distress and harm.<br /><br />Also on the Anything and Everything Blog, you can view my letter to BBC Jersey that was sent yesterday.<br /><br />I have a lot of other things to do in my life at the moment, but I will be following up the BBC Jersey matter.<br />Thank you all for your support.<br /><br />By the way, I don't normally buy the JEP or listen to BBC Jersey and I have a feeling that a number of Bob's blog readers don't either, but nonetheless, I am still being affected by the continued bias and misleading broadcasts and articles to do with my case.<br />HGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-54848297359762164032015-11-12T07:09:37.019+00:002015-11-12T07:09:37.019+00:00Bob.

Given the small percentage of the population who regularly attend Services do we need so many churches and Rectors. Not only do Rate payers have to pay for upkeep of the churches but they also pay for the upkeep of the Rectories. What are they getting in return and what can one do about it, not a lot is the answer.<br /><br />It was my proposition which led to the Carswell Review into the role of the unelected members but PPC lodged an amendment which removed the role of the Dean and Governor from the Review.<br /><br />The Dean is paid a salary along with a free house but in addition receives a further £26k for his role in the States. That represents half the salary of a full time States Member who does not get free accommodation <br /><br />It would be interesting to know how much the Church of England really costs the tax payer and are we getting value for our money?<br /><br />The Church in Jersey has been keeping its head down in relation to the refugee situation, perhaps they are concerned that some refugees might be accommodated in the spare rooms in their large Rectories.

The purpose of a embargo is to allow editors to consider what they want to do with the information.<br /><br />The letter will take a certain amount of space so if the editor wants to print it in full, they may not have had sufficient space for today's edition, so it might be a bit early to condemn the JEP today.<br /><br />I share your views re the BBC as do other readers..

Has the BBC learnt nothing in the last few years concerning attacks on victims? It is beyond the pail that they thought it would be appropriate to read that comment out and I hope HG gets an apology for it. After all that poor girl has been through she now has to contend with brutal attacks on the radio. HG you really must make a complaint against those heartless amateurs who thought it was acceptable to read out such a horrible comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-5067798181579858382015-11-11T17:46:04.295+00:002015-11-11T17:46:04.295+00:00Excellent letter Bob covers all bases let us hope ...Excellent letter Bob covers all bases let us hope the JEP give it the space it deserves. <br /><br />I hope with conviction, that the people of Jersey wake up and insist that the States ( like Ireland and the whole USA ) remove the church from Government benches.<br /><br />It is also about time rate payers, work together at parish assemblies to stop having money taken from parish budgets to fund vicars, upkeep of churches and people like Dean Bob Key with all residential bills covered. <br /><br />As the Queen is head of the CoE, if she be so keen for it's ongoing up of her church - then let her and other royalty put in substantial funds, they can afford it.<br /><br />No problem with the religious or indeed religions that is completely the peoples choice, but they should fund their own beliefs and churches themselves and certainly not be expecting the public or other congregrations of competing religions or the non religious to fund their own party. <br /><br />Why are the Bishops and Deans sitting in Government, what good do they do in this world and where is the proof ? <br /><br />Looking at the treatment of HG and the even bigger picture of 800,000 Syrian and other immigrants crossing the sea to Greece and Italy has anyone seen the Church getting deeply involved with any type of substantial help for the destitute Men, women and children immigrants ?<br /><br />Boatyboy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-2129408917344105002015-11-11T17:28:06.485+00:002015-11-11T17:28:06.485+00:00Bob.

Your letter to the Archbishop was nowhere to be seen on the front page at least. It might be on anther page so if any of your readers do buy the rag could they let us know if Bob's letter is in tonight's edition?<br /><br />Philip Bailhache's letter was on its front page so that would mean yours should be also in order to give equal weight to both sides of the argument. Or does the establishments side of the story deserve more weight to that of your and the poor victim HG.<br /><br />I did hear the attack on HG this morning on radio Jersey and thought it was in very poor taste that the BBC saw fit to read it out considering HG is a victim of abuse and had no right of reply. It was not only racist and abusive it was inaccurate. The fake Facebook profile claimed HG was sleeping rough in Jersey when anybody who has followed this story even slightly knows the police went round to the place she was living to arrest her and throw her off the island. It was only then that HG was sleeping rough when she was deported to the UK.<br /><br />I hope HG makes a complaint to the BBC because they need to learn that attacking - and lying about - abuse victims is something that used to happen pre-Savile and the world is supposed to have moved forward since then.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-17686681864436501612015-11-11T16:57:01.734+00:002015-11-11T16:57:01.734+00:00it was very convenient for Baillache to have a fro...it was very convenient for Baillache to have a front page spread showing his "caring "side standing up for Jersey when several damming revelations had been coming out in the COI.<br /> Holland not being removed and then making Bob Le Broq a scapegoat.<br /> Chair of Govenors at Vic College,when allegations of abuse were being dismissed<br /> wanting Operation Rectangle closed down and that's just for starters.<br />The Jersey Media Machine swings into action.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-26369794011968836832015-11-11T16:08:30.623+00:002015-11-11T16:08:30.623+00:00Thanks Polo, spot on and nothing to add.Thanks Polo, spot on and nothing to add.Bob Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01834363721495974167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-10899283459145556402015-11-11T15:59:23.475+00:002015-11-11T15:59:23.475+00:00Re the comment at 1237.

I was surprised that that BBC read the message because it was a blatant attack on HG. Any cost was down to the Dean as she was fully employed in Jersey until at the behest of the Dean she was arrested and whilst at the Police Station the tax payer had to pay for 5 visits for the doctor whilst she was held in custody The tax payer also had to pay for the 14 days she was held at La Moye and the plane fare when she was deported from Jersey.<br /><br />Sadly the message also showed that there is still a racist element in JerseyBob Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01834363721495974167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4596634218626697583.post-65671783110080117672015-11-11T14:57:33.396+00:002015-11-11T14:57:33.396+00:00Nothing to cover up.
