This Act is used by local authorities to secure a charge on the land of persons who it is acting against unfavourably. It is the mechanism by which councils seek to obtain land at an undervalue for persons in their district who they favour - in denial of Articles 8, 14 and 17 - knowing full well that we (the UK) have no Article 13 in our domestic Human Rights Act 1998. Not having Article 13 effectively denies any person in England and Wales an effective remedy - where the European Court of Human Rights is also non-accountable for its decision making.

Look then to the Schedule 4 where you will find the all important wording that explains why it is so important to have policing of corrupt councils, in this case Wealden District Council, but you will find that the tactics that Wealden apply are fostered by the associations that most councils belong to - hence are widespread practices used for the procurement of land to order. And that is of course illegal, so a matter for the Sussex Police, or it would be, but the Sussex Police appear to be in on it with other MAPPA agencies.

On reading this Act and cross referencing it with the applicable Regulations you will realise that bankruptcy is an important part of the process of by which councils seek to obtain land to order for third parties. Wealden DC attempted to bankrupt Mr Nelson Kruschandl, a case that is extremely interesting as a case study to any student setting out to tackle corruption - by way of organised crime.

APPEAL COSTS

The first tactic, also endorsed by the Secretary of State in awarding costs, is to apply for costs at any appeal hearing. An Englishman's home is not then his castle, where simply by testing the water as to planning consent, he or she is liable to fall foul of a costs order leading to a Land Charge, leading to confiscation of land.

What happens is that councils, in this case Wealden, seek to obtain costs at appeal. They frustrate land owners with the intention that such frustration will cause the target or victim to seek to appeal and then at that appeal they do their utmost to obtain a Costs Order - with the intention of using that costs order to Bankrupt their victim.

What is a Local Land Charge - A Local Land Charge is a restriction or prohibition imposed on a particular piece of land either to secure the payment of a sum of money, or to limit the use of the land. This charge is binding on successive owners and occupiers of the land. The object of the search is to uncover any restrictions or legal obligations against the site. This is to ensure that purchasers of land are not caught unawares by obligations enforceable against successive owners or occupiers of the land by local authorities under the terms of the various statutes.

The Councils have a statutory duty under the Local Land Charges Act 1975 to maintain an accurate and up-to-date register of Local Land Charges affecting land and property in the Wealden District. Details of any Charges that are registered to land and property are, or should be, listed in each Council's Local Land Charges Register.

HOUSE TRAINING COUNCILS - Making councils obey the law of the land is incredibly difficult where institutionalized discrimination is rife and there are too many vested interests for them to be able to do the right thing. We need then to look at how we train animals not to foul our houses, for guidance on how to treat officers and members that are well versed in controlling development to suit their pockets, rather than the pocket of all those young families that cannot afford to live. We will not even mention the Climate Change Act 2008, opps! Oh well, now that we have mentioned it, we wonder where all the zero carbon houses are in Herstmonceux or any other geographical location in the Wealden district? The answer is that there are no such developments, because Wealden are too busy greasing developer's palms rather than meeting the United Nations targets for climate control. This means that sustainable development is missing in East Sussex all the while the present Conservative administration are in power. Does that mean that the Conservative Party are global warmers. It looks that way. If so, Conservative party members are partly responsible for the melting ice caps and disappearance of our coral reefs.

POTTY TRAINING

In the case of Mr Kruschandl, (at first like most targets) innocent in these matters, he was forced to remove washing and toilet facilities. Wealden went down this route because Mr Kruschandl avoided costs in several appeals to the Secretary of State. So frustrated were the officers of Wealden District Council by his good fortune that they fell foul of their own strategy to wear the target down, so petitioned the Court for removal of his potty.

It cannot be just the officers, for without the approval of the various Committees and the Cabinet, the officers would be unable to use their powers to seek to defraud anyone. Hence, it is the Members of any council who are ultimately the controlling minds - or at least that is the way it should be in a democracy.

DOUBLE EDGED SWORD

The law works both ways. If you ask for and obtain any Order that is illegal, it may be challenged in the High Court and this is what the appellant did, appearing in front of Dame Butler-Sloss, a senior judge who ordered toilet removal but then knowing the Health & Safety Regulations 1992 would come back to bite in any appeal to the Supreme Court, then suggested that the toilets could be re-installed after compliance with the Order of Mrs Justice Steele. This was a clever move on the part of Dame Elizabeth, but the justice system cannot escape the consequences of the High Court making an order that the Courts had no power to make - save for conspiring with Wealden to pervert the course of justice. Any deviation from what is just and right is a perversion.

(b) one of them (whether or not protected by a priority notice) is subject to or dependent on the other; and

(c) the latter is protected by a priority notice,

the subsequent or dependent charge, instrument or matter shall be deemed to have been created, entered into or made, or to have arisen, after the registration of the other.

(5) Where a purchaser has obtained a certificate under section 10 above, any entry which is made in the register after the date of the certificate and before the completion of the purchase, and is not made pursuant to a priority notice entered on the register on or before the date of the certificate, shall not affect the purchaser if the purchase is completed before the expiration of the relevant number of days after the date of the certificate.

(6) The relevant number of days is—

(a) for the purposes of subsections (1) and (5) above, fifteen;

(b) for the purposes of subsection (3) above, thirty. or such other number as may be prescribed; but in reckoning the relevant number of days for any of the purposes of this section any days when the registry is not open to the public shall be excluded.

(2) The registration as a land charge of a puisne mortgage or charge shall not operate to prevent that mortgage or charge being overreached in favour of a prior mortgagee or a person deriving title under him where, by reason of a sale or foreclosure, or otherwise, the right of the puisne mortgagee or subsequent chargee to redeem is barred.
14Exclusion of matters affecting registered land or created by instruments necessitating registration of land

(1) This Act shall not apply to instruments or matters required to be registered or re-registered on or after 1st January 1926, if and so far as they affect registered land, and can be protected under the Land Registration Act 1925 by lodging or registering a creditor's notice, restriction, caution, inhibition or other notice.

(2) Nothing in this Act imposes on the registrar any obligation to ascertain whether or not an instrument or matter affects registered land.

(3) Where an instrument executed on or after 27th July 1971 conveys, grants or assigns an estate in land and creates a land charge affecting that estate, this Act shall not apply to the land charge, so far as it affects that estate, if under section 123 of the Land Registration Act 1925 (effect of that Act in areas where registration is compulsory) the instrument will, unless the necessary application for registration under that Act is made within the time allowed by or under that section, become void so far as respects the conveyance, grant or assignment of that estate.


15 Application to the Crown

(b) for providing for the mode of registration of a land charge (and in the case of a puisne mortgage, general equitable charge, estate contract, restrictive covenant or equitable easement by reference to the instrument imposing or creating the charge, interest or restriction, or an extract from that instrument) and for the cancellation without an order of court of the registration of a land charge, on its cesser, or with the consent of the person entitled to it, or on sufficient evidence being furnished that the land charge has been overreached under the provisions of any Act or otherwise ;

(j) for requiring the registrar to take steps in relation to any instrument or matter in respect of which compensation has been claimed under section 25 of the Law of Property Act 1969 which would be likely to bring that instrument or matter to the notice of any person who subsequently makes a search of the registers kept under section 1 of this Act or requires such a search to be made in relation to the estate or interest affected by the instrument or matter ; and

(k) for authorising the use of the index kept under this Act in any manner which will serve that purpose, notwithstanding that its use in that manner is not otherwise authorised by or by virtue of this Act.

17 Interpretation


Schedule 4 The Land Charges Act 1925, As Amended
Part VI Local Land Charges

15(1) Any charge (hereinafter called "a local land charge") acquired either before or after the commencement of this Act by the council of any administrative county, London borough, or urban or rural district, or by the corporation of any municipal borough, or by any other local authority under the Public Health Acts 1936 and 1937, the Highways Act 1959 or the Public Health Act 1961 or under any similar statute (public, general or local or private) passed or hereafter to be passed, which takes effect by virtue of the statute, shall be registered in the prescribed manner by the proper officer of the local authority, and shall (except as hereinafter mentioned in regard to charges created or arising before the commencement of this Act) be void as against a purchaser for money or money's worth of a legal estate in the land affected thereby, unless registered in the appropriate register before the completion of the purchase. For the purposes of this section any sum which is recoverable by a local authority under any of the Acts aforesaid from successive owners or occupiers of the property in respect of which the sum is recoverable shall, whether such sum is expressed to be a charge on the property or not, be deemed to be a charge.

(1A) The expenses incurred by the person entitled to a charge registrable under subsection (1) above in causing the charge to be registered in the appropriate register shall be deemed to form part of the charge, and shall be recoverable by him accordingly on the day for payment of any part of the charge next after such expenses are incurred.

(2) Except as expressly provided by this section, the provisions of the Land Charges Act 1972 relating to a land charge of Class B shall apply to a local land charge.

(3) As regards a local land charge, the registration by the proper officer shall (without prejudice to the right of the registrar also to register the charge if and when the prescribed application and information is made and furnished to him) take the place of registration by the registrar, and, in reference thereto, the proper officer of the local authority shall have all the powers and be subject to the same obligations as the registrar has or is subject to in regard to a land charge under the Land Charges Act 1972.

(4) Where a local authority has expended money for any purpose which, when the work is completed and any requisite resolution is passed or order is made, will confer a charge upon land, the proper officer of the local authority may in the meantime register a local land charge in his register against the land generally, without specifying the amount, but the registration of any such general charge shall be cancelled within the prescribed time not being less than one year after the charge is ascertained and allotted, and thereupon the specific local land charges shall, unless previously discharged, be registered as of the date on which the general charge was registered.

(5) Nothing in this section operates to impose any obligation to register any local land charge created or arising before the commencement of this Act except after the expiration of one year from such commencement or to discharge a purchaser from liability in respect of any local land charge which is not for the time being required to be registered.

(7) The foregoing provisions of this section shall apply to—

(b) any prohibition of or restriction on the user or mode of user of land or buildings imposed by a local authority after the commencement of this Act by order, instrument, or resolution, or enforceable by a local authority under any covenant or agreement made with them after the commencement of this Act or by virtue of any conditions attached to a consent, approval, or licence granted by a local authority after that date, being a prohibition or restriction binding on successive owners of the land or buildings, and not being—

(i) a prohibition or restriction operating over the whole of the district of the authority or over the whole of any contributory place thereof ; or

(iii) a prohibition or restriction imposed by a covenant or agreement made between a lessor and lessee, as if the resolution, authority, prohibition or restriction were a local land charge ; and the same shall be registered by the proper officer as a local land charge accordingly.

(7A) Where any matter is registrable both in a register kept under this Act and in one or more of the registers kept under the Land Charges Act 1972, it shall be sufficient if it is registered in one register, and if it is so registered the person entitled to the benefit of it shall not be prejudicially affected by the provisions of this Act or that Act applying to any other register.

(7B) The registration of a local land charge may be vacated pursuant to an order of the court.

(8) This section applies to local land charges affecting registered as well as unregistered land.

Part VII Searches

16 Any person may search in any register or index kept in pursuance of this Act on paying the prescribed fee.

Part VIII General

19 The Lord Chancellor may, with the concurrence of the Treasury as to fees, make such general rules as may be required for carrying this Act into effect, and in particular—

(a) for prescribing the mode of registration of a charge, whether by reference to the estate owner or to the land affected or otherwise ;

(b) for prescribing the proper officer to act as local registrar, and making provision as to official certificates of search to be given by him in reference to subsisting entries in his register;

(c) for determining the effect of an official certificate of search in regard to the protection of a purchaser, or a solicitor, trustee or other person in a fiduciary position, and for prescribing the fees to be paid for any such certificate or for a search ;

(d) for adapting the provisions of section 11 of the Land Charges Act 1972 to local land charges ;

(e) for providing for the cancellation without an order of the court of the registration of a local land charge, on the cesser thereof, or with the consent of the person entitled thereto ;

NCSC ROYAL OPENING - Her Majesty The Queen opened the NCSC on the 17th of February 2017. There are several agencies in the UK that are supposed to tackle fraud, cyber crime, drugs, sex trafficking and money laundering, but when you ask any one of them to take a look at corruption in Wealden-land, they don't appear too anxious to open a case file. It's more a case of pass the buck .... and keep passing it ... until the complainant fades away. Sorry to have to report this to you Your Majesty, but it is the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth - so help me God.

FOR GAIN AND LOSS SEE THE FRAUD ACT 2006

A "gain" or a "loss" is defined to consist only of a gain or a loss in money or property (including intangible property), but could be temporary or permanent. A "gain" could be construed as gaining by keeping their existing possessions, not just by obtaining new ones, and loss including loss of expected acquisitions, as well as losses of already-held property - such as use - as opposed to non-use.

Hence, the refusal of a reasonable use becomes the initial mechanism whereby corrupt councils seek to devalue a property that they are attempting to acquire for a favoured neighbour or property developer.

Fraud is any statement or action that deceives another person, and in so doing causes a loss to the victim. Fraud, is also the failure to do something that is required in a position of authority - such as failing to seek advice from the County Archaeologist and English Heritage in accordance with Government Circulars. In this case it is alleged that Wealden only put forward one side of an argument, and that they failed to seek the proper assurances from the experts, as per Government guidance. This is of course a crucial omission on the part of those officers involved in the preparations of: 1. An enforcement report to the Members 2. Prior to service of an Enforcement Notice, and 3. An appeal where an Inspector will be making a decision and needs accurate facts on the table in order to make a decision that is safe. If the facts upon which a decision is based are incorrect (false or have been crafted) then the decision reached is ultra vires (invalid).

Consider then paragraph 17 of the Decision Letter from R P Dannreuther in 1987. In this paragraph the Inspector says that: "the foundation of a previous building do not merit special attention." This is a crucial error on the part of Dannreuther, because he has been persuaded that the building he is looking at is not the original generating building, but a building of "corrugated metal construction" built over foundations from another building that has no archaeological merit. This would never have happened if Wealden had done their duty and consulted the experts. Whether or not this was deliberate is irrelevant, as officers of the Court they were obliged to follow the correct procedure. Not to do so is both improprietous and maladministration - but more importantly, deprived the appellant of his right to a fair hearing under Article 6 - thus is also a human rights violation - that travels back in time if a Council fail to correct any decision or data entry that is erroneous and carries forward that which is now a violation under the Human Rights Act 1998.

Consider now paragraph 20, where Inspector Dannreuther says: The building itself, because of its materials and construction is an unattractive feature in the rural scene." Here again, the Inspector has erred in fact, because he has incorrectly been advised by George Morham White and Thomas William Hoy that the corrugated metal is the construction method. Whereas, the building is of timber construction (like many other barn conversions) and was merely sheathed in corrugated metal during WWII hostilities as a fire precaution. That metal covering has now gone.

FRAUD CONCEALMENT - One way of hiding a fraud, is to do nothing that might reveal that fraud, such as to compile a list of local building of interest, when one knows that they have obtained a decision by what is now defined as a statutory fraud. Perpetuating known incorrect decisions to cause a person loss, brings the offence from 1986 into frame for prosecution in 2014.
