Ben Houchens crown slipping

Bluestreak · **Posted:** Sun Mar 30, 2025 11:16 am

Apart from the reports of dodgy dealing with his mates he has now dismissed out of hand the modernisation of the buses franchises like everyone else is doing and is stopping public questions being made at meetings. He seems to been in the bunker for the remainder of his term doing nothing but spending the government capital funding he receives on what best suits his agenda.

Oh plus the electric arc furnace not going ahead, Teeside park train station ( sheer bollocks) and Teeside Airport train station etc etc

Why…is Starmer lining up a Labour stooge to replace the only non Labour Mayor….wouldn’t surprise as all the prevelection Labour MP’s in Tees Valley ignored him.
Dodgy rumour season start today with the clocks going forward.…?

Es elected for 4 or 5 years so he has a free hand. As for clocks going forward the train I cought this morning was on time but the automated voice said you can claim compensation as it's 60 minutes late. It raised a laugh!

Nobody has mentioned the £16.4 million to regenerate Church Street (again) and the surrounding area, there is going to be a public consultation.

I think I remembered getting banned for talking about his mates dodgy dealings albeit they are widely available in Private Eye, sons running about in Bentleys and the Plant Hire Co owned by one of their sons who had the contract at BS and the main company made £50 million profit in 1 year., not allegedly but true.

That's part of the £25 m that gets renounced every 6 months going back to 2021. The shopping center element is hardly talked about now. Utter bollocks it all is.

What the fooook are you drinking or what crazy jungle drugs are you on.

You have once again shot yourself in the foot. You told us all on the " NASA LOCKED THREAD " posts just last week that you had NEVER BEEN BANNED from a message board site this once again proves in your own words what a total foooking liar and idiot you really are. I feel yet another set of rolls coming on :laughing-rolling:

Do you know what's even funnier it was in your reply to Derwent saying " Derwent I have never been banned from any political site " you total foooking crank. It that time yet again. :laughing-rolling:

In response to the thread title-

Hope it slips and chokes him.

May as well make hIm King of Cleveland (borer)
As he's done fuck for our town - another charlatan who's more than greased the sweaty palms of the few. The whole Tees works debacle was criminal- yet swept under a borer size rug :angry-screaming:

Anyone (including myself) who is (just) old enough to remember the names T. Dan Smith and John Poulson knows how dodgy local politicians can be.

And so do the bunch of (mostly) lefty journalists on a website called North East Bylines.

If you're bored, then go to their website and search for Ben Houchen - it's fair to say they aren't his greatest admirers.

The results of such a search query are displayed in newest to oldest order, so for the full story you are best going to the last page displayed on screen - which is page 10 on my computer, and that's showing THIRTY per page...! (NOTE: Not all of the articles are directly about Houchen, but his name is mentioned in all of them.)

Here's a link that'll do the search for you: https://northeastbylines.co.uk/?s=Ben+Houchen

LEGAL DISCLAIMER: I am in no way suggesting that the fine, outstandingly honest gentleman Mr Houchen is bent in any way.

You said I had been banned from 2 political sites,I said I have never been banned from a political site Leggie. The Bunker is a footy message board not a political site although it appears that way some times. I suppose you class Facebook as a political site as well, btw I have been banned from a couple of FB pages.TBH I don’t think you even know what a political site is if you class The Bunker as one, just shows your lack of knowledge once again, anyway stick to the topic Leggie and put your toys away, obviously you couldn’t wait to try and dig me up again, failed miserably, you need to try harder next time.

Reason I want to know is, I'm going to tender for the job, next time it comes up.
Now I've never laid a road or completed any large construction projects at scale- but I promise to buy a new Wheelbarrow in which they can leave all the cash, to make it easier for me to take it to the bank!

The only sites I have been banned from are The Bunker and Facebook, 2 of both non political websites, in fact if you look back I mentioned in another topic I got banned from a non political FB Page a couple of weeks ago. Whilst the NASA thread is locked you can still view it but not comment on it. You can copy and paste anything you want from it or is that neyond your capabilities Leggie ? You carry on with your rants about me which no one else is apparently interested in Derwent will be locking down this thread next. Whilst I was reading your post last night I must admit had a good chuckle at it, better than your craic.

Let’s stick to the topic, it’s about Ben Houchen not me Leggie.

There was an inquiry,
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cek7ne5zr05o
Comments included,
‘ More broadly, the review found a culture of excessive confidentiality and a lack of transparency at the development corporation’ Why was that, what had they to hide ?

‘ In one case the panel looked at how private property developers have ended up owning 90% of the site.
The report says they put no money into the scheme, but they have made money on the back of public sector investment of more than £560m’

A very good get rich quick scheme, why was it allowed, why weren’t the local authorities allowed to buy it, £500 million would have went a long way to improve schools and hospitals in the area.

Over to you Jamie.

Dear me Leggie, when was a footy message board a political site Leggie, we discuss politics but it’s not a political site, dear me it’s like pulling teeth, you obviously on the tinnies again.[/quote]

DEAR ME JAMIE I never said the bunker is a political forum did I

I merely pointed out that you had said on the NASA thread " I remember getting banned from a political site for calling names etc " banghead

[/quote]

The only sites I have been banned from are The Bunker and Facebook, 2 of both non political websites, in fact if you look back I mentioned in another topic I got banned from a non political FB Page a couple of weeks ago. Whilst the NASA thread is locked you can still view it but not comment on it. You can copy and paste anything you want from it or is that neyond your capabilities Leggie ? You carry on with your rants about me which no one else is apparently interested in Derwent will be locking down this thread next. Whilst I was reading your post last night I must admit had a good chuckle at it, better than your craic.

Let’s stick to the topic, it’s about Ben Houchen not me Leggie.[/quote]

Good idea Jamie…aye let’s stick to the topic…why’s he still in office.
You have been on his back since he got elected, always wondered why you were obsessed since day one with your howling at the moon….you’re either a party stooge or he came in your house on Xmas day and pissed on the kids presents…..the Xmas one is an unlikely scenario…..do the maths.

What the fooook are you drinking or what crazy jungle drugs are you on.

You have once again shot yourself in the foot. You told us all on the " NASA LOCKED THREAD " posts just last week that you had NEVER BEEN BANNED from a message board site this once again proves in your own words what a total foooking liar and idiot you really are. I feel yet another set of rolls coming on :laughing-rolling:

Do you know what's even funnier it was in your reply to Derwent saying " Derwent I have never been banned from any political site " you total foooking crank. It that time yet again. :laughing-rolling:

I said I have never been banned from a political sight Leggie, you said I had been banned from 2 political sites.The Bunker is a footy message board not a political site, tbh I don’t think you even know what a political site is if you class The Bunker as one, anyway stick to the topic.[/quote]

I am on his back because there are many well publicised articles about the goings on at the at Redcar site. Are you pleased 2 persons were more or less gifted the site and walked away with hundreds of millions of pounds Snowy or will be your usual reply I don’t give a flying f*** !
Whilst on the subject what’s Houchen ever done for Hartlepool, oh he was involved on a railway bridge where we have little or no train service.

All these mayors do is top slice govt monies which would have been spent by the govt or councils. They are supposed to do strategic planning for the areas but I see little of that from him.

Houchen got away with it because the enquiry was biased and set up by Michael Gove. He's as dodgy as the Liverpool councillors.

Not sure who this question is directed at but i understand its 4 years as a democratically elected representative. I am sure the Labour party are trying to dig up some crap on him to have him removed for some irregularities but hes here until 2028 at least. The Labour guy was dull old duffer and no doubt will be looking for someone more dynamic like Tony Blair mark 2.

Too right Mr 27.

It beggars belief that Houchen and his chums still have their fingers in our wallets.

Weird this…went to see Lindisfarne last night which featured the track ‘All Fall Down’ which was allegedly about the redevelopment on Tyneside in the 60’s and basically slagging it off.
