Documentary Nightmare Neighbour Next Door

COUNCIL HOUSE BRITAIN: PRIME-TIME DOCUMENTARY ON SOUTHWARK COUNCIL HOMES AIRS THIS WEEK


OSH SALISBURY (02 September, 2020) HOUSING
The six-part series starts on Thursday at 9pm
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know much about the above and haven't watched the TV program, but have seen some of the Twitter comments under the #councilhousebritain hashtag. 
It just so happens that yesterday [Thursday 3 Sept 2020] the tenant who lives above me had a early morning visitor to her flat, who visited again today with a man holding a tripod and expensive looking camera. 
The woman and man with big camera where hanging about outside and at one point the camera was pointed at the front door of the property I live in. Curious, I went downstairs, with my video on, to find out what was going on, the cameraman didnt say anything but the woman knew my name straight off, and said that tenant upstairs had contacted her. 

Ah I thought, and mentioned that I have recordings/evidence of tenant being verbally abusing to me, not long after I came out of hospital following having a heart attack, I also have audio recording of tenant out her window shouting and swearing at the neighbours next door, so I'll send her the recordings. The woman was pleasant enough.
Not long after I went back in, tenant above came down and she and the woman and cameraman went off somewhere - turns out it wasn't far - as i could hear the tenant, they moved further away though. 
I contacted the complaints handling people at Camden Council [longstanding and ongoing complaint] and informed them of the tenant and TV people and that I would be sending in further evidence to both the council and the TV people. 
I think this is just another attempt to intimidate and cause me distress. I have made another report to the Met police. This will be my third. 
update
The cameraman was hanging about outside the house again, minus the woman -  pointing his camera at my cycle and the front door, he was starting to creep me out and distress me so I went downstairs equipped with my video on, and panic alarm. I went out to him with my panic alarm - tenant above seems to like having an audience so I thought why not get the attention of half the street, passers by etc, maybe even the police will show up. 

Tenant was upstairs hiding and wouldn't come out and stand in front of the big camera, so I'm thinking whats the point of him being there, apparently its procedure - he did go eventually after a chat on the phone to someone he works with. He videoed me and I videoed him and I told him I don't have anything to loose, she does I don't care if the whole street hears me. 

The name is Avalon Factual, for channel 5 - they are currently making a factual documentary series about neighbour issues. The thing is I don't think the tenant is intelligent enough to come up with this herself and has had some prodding from others. 

update
the woman, cameraman and tenant [Petra Hind] just snuck out again, from flat upstairs - they snuck back in and then out - wtf is this seriously? if i see them again im going to do my panic alarm again. 

Sun 6 Sept 2020
A few photo's i took:

Monday 7 Sept 2020
I've checked my emails and I don't see anything from the assist producer - i thought maybe at least she'd have sent me an acknowledgement email, but nothing. 

The carry on y/d with the sneaking about, in and out, back and forth by the tenant in flat above me and the man and woman from Avalon, reminded me of the tragic Brenda Layland case HERE - Martin Brunt from sky news, then Sky had the nerve to offer condolenses to BL's family - i would have told them where to stick it. 

Tues 8 Sept 2020
The woman assist producer has emailed me, which i appreciate - i will email her back. 


Wed 9 Sept 2020


The last few days i've been experiencing pains around my heart, left lung area - I think its the stress of what the tenant above recently did re Avalon Factual and them hanging about outside etc.

I've also felt unwell inside and had sweats. I have been advised to seek medical help re see the GP sort of thing but will wait and she how I feel this evening.

I have an appointment to speak with Cardiologist at beginning of Nov 2020.

What Petra Hind [tenant in flat above me] did has caused me a lot of unnecessary stress and upset, all because she wants me evicted - regardless of how her actions impact of my already poor health and wel-being. Now I have to spend some more time and effort in dealing with the assist producer - when all i want to do is lay down and rest as the fatique had crept up on me again.

update
The skunk I can smell when I come out of the flat door: must be my 'holier than thou' upstairs neighbour, because it ain't me.

update
It is my understanding that if someone becomes stressed, distressed, is being  attacked in some way this ignites the fight or flight response, which entails the heart beating faster, to pump blood/oxygen around the body.

if the heart is damaged like in my case [but I don't know what the damage is as yet] this puts too much pressure on the already damaged heart - am on meds to keep heart and blood pressure lower, and meds to thin the blood.

"Hurry up and die" 

Tues 15 Sept 2020
Tenant upstairs has been slamming her flat door and main door harder than usual when going out and in - possibly to annoy me. The noise from the slamming of doors scared my cat, who ran off from where he was sleeping and has hidden under the bed.

Wednesday 23 Sept 2020
I received an email reply from the assistant producer of Avalon [see below]






I have also received via the post the allegations Petra Hind  in flat above me has made against me. 
The producer is Mona Hamed and the documentary is called The Nightmare Neighbour Next Door [series 8] 
*looks around* surely the nightmare neighbour isn't supposed to be me ????? 
More later .......
I'm trying hard to be very calm about this and not get upset but i'm starting to get stabbing pains again around the left side of my heart which has the artery that has the metal stent in. I also have some damage to the right side of my heart which didn't have any work done to it - im not sure what exactly the problem is until I speak with the Cardiologist Consultant from the RFH in first week of Nov 2020 - my first out-patient appointment since leaving hospital on 21 March 2020.  
I just thought I'd add the following links about the Jeremy Kyle show [ITV] being axed due to a guest killing himself. 

update
https://www.exerciseregister.org/    Petra Hind is apparently an Exercise Professional [see below] I can't see her name on the register HERE but I might be doing it wrong

update 29 Sept 2020
apparently the new membership is called the  The Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity [CIMSPA]  https://www.cimspa.co.uk/ . When I put her name in HERE  it didn't come up. 


update 24 Sept 2020
A reminder of the verbal abuse I received from PH inside the property at Falkland  Road, NW5. Camden Council is the landlord:
This is a recording I took of  of PH, who was downstairs, the date 27 March 2020 a week after I came out of hospital after suffering from a heart attack. 
1. https://youtu.be/WF2hZRDeBsY   27 March 2020 
2. https://youtu.be/76nfdbprjzk      29 April 2020 - PH had come down from her flat and kicked my flat door, which i didn't manage to record - she then went back into her flat and was shouting abuse and threats at me, which I managed to record. 

14 April 2021
Avalon Factual have started with me again via email and a letter through the post - i replied to the email, i reported Avalon to the police and I did this HERE with the letter. 
Avalon person has sent me another email which i have now opened [i didnt think i could at first as i felt sick]. Avalon obviously in my view, put TV ratings above everything else.

Ive even just heard her loud footsteps as she moved away from the window. it feels like im being gas-lighted. She does the pretend classes as well, where I can hear her speaking/shouting as if she's giving instructions - one can hear her from outside as well. 

update
i went back next door to lie down again as still felt very tired - it was very quiet - no noise out the back - and - tenant above moved from front room to bedroom and I could hear her talking - i had to turn on my radio and listen to some music as I was also trying to meditate - i still have a long way to go though with the meditation in blocking out external intrusive noises. These last 4/5 years Ive just been able to keep my head above water really, a master i'm not but i keep trying and will have to for as long as im still alive on this planet, I guess. 

I went into kitchen and no sooner had i done that and banging/scrapping noise from patio above - do i laugh or cry - ok i will laugh because ive done enough crying these last years to last an eternity. 

Wed 23 June 2021 ever since the letter from housing officer about the bookcase in communal hallway the tenant in flat C has been trying to provoke me [i believe]as  she has been slamming her flat door and the main door every time she goes out. It sounds loud to me and is annoying and distresses me and i am now seeing it as a continuation of her and vacant tenants harassment of me.  I am really struggling with not going out to her but what would happen I don't know. I have though shouted out today and asked her to stop slamming her door blah blah. 
I have warned the tenant that is she does it again I will again contact the police. 
I'm not bothering with the housing officers - they only make matter worse in my view: useless in helping me but a lot of help to the 2 tenants who want to cause me distress.

I think something was supposed to have happened last week [i didn't see it but was informed by the 'delightful' Sarah Rest despite not heard a thing from anyone about it other than SR] - that has no affect/effect upon me whatsoever, what could it be Avalon Factual?   Sarah Rest 


Monday 30 August 2021
These last 3 days and nights have been  peaceful here, hardly a peep from tenant upstairs I wondered at one point whether tenant was in but sometimes i could hear the water from toilet flush going down drain so figured she was. She can be very quiet when she wants to, like a mouse, i'd barely hear her or even her visitors. 
 I wonder what has caused this nearly 3 day of quietness and can only think that tenant intends to be very noisy in the coming days to make up for it as proved by the loud banging of door downstairs recently, just to let me know she is back.  Business as usual now. 

23 Sept 2021
The tenant upstairs started with the shouting and name calling again earlier on today. 
I hadn't long come back from the hospital when she came in and slammed the front door, I turned my radio up and she started stomping on her kitchen floor which is above my living room - she did this again and I turned the music down and could hear her shouting stuff, then she was shouting out her living room window which is above my living room as well. She wanted everyone to hear her. I managed to record some of what she said, such as im a leech, low-life [again] sort of thing.  I think from she says that she looks down her noise at me because I'm not working, that i'm unwell. Its upsets me when she does it then I have to try and make light of it otherwise, well i dont know. 
She has gone off out now slamming her flat door and the front door so hard the building shakes and my cat gets spooked.

19 Oct 2021
Flat C above went out around 11.20am and as I was expecting she slammed her flat door which is opposite mine. 
Yesterday I called the police as she had started with the name calling, stomping about and slaming the door and it was really stressing me out and I thought at one point that I would either hurt myself or hurt her. I haven't had much good sleep and have a cold, - I emailed the housing officer but I dont have any faith in her ability to deal with this situation in a fair manner, what with my experience of her already. 
I recorded some of it HERE

update
flat C came in around 12.05pm and slammed her door very loudly.
How it works is that its okay for her to react in a way that I don't like and find distressing but if I react in a way she doesnt like, I get called all sorts etc and because Im the scum lowlife nutter who doesnt work I have no or little protection  against disability  discrimination by camden council tenants or by the landlords housing officers, no reasonable adjustments made, not even acknowledment of conditions I have. 

update 
its 2.30pm and flat C has gone out again and slammed her door and the front door again. Seems that this is going to keep up for some time.

2 July 2020: Masked, Muddled Mauraders

During the Covid 19 lock down the tenant below me had been living somewhere else and only come back to pick up post, mow the lawn that sort of thing. I had hoped that she had stopped with the false reporting of a leak [from my bathroom] going into her kitchen to the landlord Camden councils housing repairs department - and people in housing repairs and the housing estate office, going along with the scam.

As mentioned in other posts I had a heart attack on Monday 16  March 2020 - the week before the lock-down - i was in hospital for 5 days [16-21 march 2020]. When I came back I let the 2 tenants here know where I had been. I let the housing office know via email what had happened. No reply from any of them.

3 weeks ago the tenant below and the housing repairs team started again with the trying to get into my flat about a leak - a note was left downstairs in communal hallway for me. I ignored it.

3 weeks go by and on Tuesday gone [30 June 2020] a note with the name Jim Williams is left outside my flat door - urgent it says blah blah blah - again its about the fake leak. I ignored it.

Thursday 2 July 2020 around 9.15am or so - someone knocks on my flat door - long story short its 6 blokes from Camden Councils housing department - repairs and estate officer and they are wanting to get into my flat - let me see the leak then and I will let a plumber in to fix the problem, sort of thing.

Tenant in flat below is in but she won't let me in - to see this leak and the council people are giving me a load of bs about the water gushing down and all the bs i've heard before. I wouldn't let them in but went out to them and I told them a few things - if they want access they can break the door down or send me a court summons.

It just so happens to be rubbish collection day as you can see from the photo below of the 6 strong mob from the councils housing department.

They didn't know what to do - so they, or the housing officer phoned 999 - the emergency services - fire and the police. More photo's to follow.

First a fire engine turns up and a few firemen come over and I set them straight on a few things and they go off and hang about outside.


As this didn't work in getting me or the firemen to get them into my flat, the police where phoned - they turned up and I let them know a few things and whats really been going on and how I believe the people in the council and the tenant are lying and its some sort of scam/fraud and harassment of me, sort of thing - that there isnt a leak and it certainly isn't an emergency.

Low and behold, a copper tells me , after checking the tenants flat, that he believes me - blimey I was expecting the worse I really was - to be arrested at least, but to be believed I was relived and over whelmed. The police left and the only people left lurking about outside where the 6 strong mob from the housing department.

Did they say sorry to me, did anyone say sorry to me - no of course not.

Have they been arrested, has anyone involved in it been arrested, of course that would be too much for the police to do. I guess for now I have to make do with the copper believing me and not jumping to the tune of the 'crooks' in Camden Council. I have it on video of the copper saying he believed me and other stuff.

I am thankful to these Camden based Met coppers for being fair and reasonable.

People from Camden Council housing department wasted the time of our emergency services by phoning them up and misleading them - all to try and get into my flat over a fake leak the tenant in the flat below me keeps reporting.

Tenant didn't look very happy when she was called back to the flat a few times. I guess the scam wasn't going to plan and maybe she thought she would get into big trouble - but of course she didn't and probably won't get into any trouble not with people in the council going along with her/it.

I was very distressed and upset by what happened and I had to try my hardest to keep calm, not freak out or anything - i held my own I think, rather better than they maybe though I would be able to.  They couldn't in my view care less if I had another heart attack and died - brought on by their behaviour towards me.


Monday 6 July 2020
I've  not long finished filling it and submitted a report to the Met Police via their website. I was surprised to quickly receive a phone call arranging a time later on for police to come see me. Part of the complaint is about Camden Council.


Tuesday 7 July 2020
Police woman phoned me instead. I informed her about some of what has been going on.

She/they won't be doing anything other than me having been sent a CAD  number and I was informed that  every time something happens I have to keep reporting it to them.

I would have to report it around 10 tens before they did anything,  they don't even issue harassment warnings anymore apparently. I guess they won't be being 'dealt with by the courts' like I was a number of years ago for a lot less [imo] - well not via the police anyway.

But that being said I am thankful for the fair Copper for saying he believed me re there not being a leak - I recorded it so hopefully it will be of help to me.

Transcript of some of what police officer said to me HERE

Camden Council  Anti Fraud and Corruption Strategy HERE
last updated Aug 2019

Sun 19 July 2020
The first part of video recording of Thursday 2 July 2020 when 6 men from Camden councils housing department tried to get into my flat - illegally in my view.

I went out of my flat, locked my door and went downstairs to the communal hallway and was having a chat them them. I admit I got a bit annoyed at first as I was so fed up with their  and the  tenants behaviour and no one taking any notice of what I was saying.
https://youtu.be/noU9ANr1aVE


Wed 22 July 2020
This is when the police where leaving the property [2 July 2020] after we had a chat and it was established that there was no leak and for some reason the tenant below left the property when the police left. The 6 council blokes hung around outside for a bit after the fire and police people had gone.

Not so much as a sorry to me from any of them for having been caught out in a 'mis-understanding' by the police, after causing me repeated distress, upset, etc etc even when I had a heart attack.




Monday 27 July 2020
On Camden Councils website HERE, 'Complaints - How do  I report a fraud?'
There are 2 documents:

Thursday 17 Sept 2020


Wednes 22 Sept 2021
Looking through the councils website to do with another matter I came across a report HERE  given to the councils Housing Scrutiny Committee of Thursday 7 Nov 2019, agenda item 10 The New Landlord Service . Apparently they piloted the service in Kentish Town earlier in the year. 

Mary McGowan, Director of Housing Management, took the meeting through the report highlighting that the paper provided an update to the implementation of the new Landlord Service." 

As usual there is already lots of praise for how well they claim the new service is doing across the borough. "The new Landlord Service was now in place boroughwide, and already the way the new service was operating had been positively received. The service was seeking to continuously improve and share knowledge amongst the team, as well as assessing the way it was performing." 

2.9 Key principles that underline the new landlord service include:

 One single trusted point of contact for residents 
 Reduced “hand offs”. Staff pull in support rather than referring on. 
 An understanding of the wider context of people’s lives as well as the immediate issue that the resident presents with 
 An approach that tackles root causes as well as surface issues to help prevent further issues developing and to help residents to grow in resilience 
 A service that’s tailored around a resident’s individual needs 
 Responding early with an emphasis on prevention 
 A shift away from an enforcement-based service towards a more restorative approach whilst responding quickly when this is necessary to prevent harm or nuisance 
 The rights skills, knowledge and experience in teams to meet residents needs 
 A focus on the value work; which is work that helps us achieve our purpose 
 Staff are encouraged to question the way we do things and suggest alternatives to better meet resident’s needs. Reflective practice is encouraged and supported. 
 All staff have a role in identifying and flagging up the things that stop them providing a good service and in contributing to addressing these.

Need I read on for anymore 'fiction' writing. None of the above point seemed to have applied when it came to me in regards to how I have been treated by people in housing repairs and the housing estate office. 

No consideration towards me who they knew has a long term mental health condition as well as long term and additional physical conditions. They weren't interested in my wel-being, in what I had to say
, in how their and the 2 tenants behaviour was impacting on me. 

They may well think that my case is a one-off, but i reckon it isn't and even if it was, why was I treated me like I had no value at all - thats how it felt and if it wasn't for the decent copper helping me out so to speak, the best he could given who he was dealing with [camden council] I don't know what would have happened. I don't know how I would have gone on. 

It still upsets me at times, like now writing more stuff about it. Just because they say something is so, or something is this that and other doesn't make it so.
