Talk:Matthew Gordon-Banks

message: * Keep Lib-Dem suspension + twitter "rant" - this is material to a public figure. Weak remove drunk driving - all I see is one source for this (I tried searching for more), and it doesn't seem connected to his public persona. If this were better sourced I'd change my mind.Icewhiz (talk) 12:42, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

message: "We" are going to provide Wikipedia GHQ with some email original paperwork as the manner Mr Gordon Banks has been treated is dreadful. Even the most simple truthful thing has been deleted and we have highlighted in the past two writers keen to defame him who miraculously no longer edit under their original names.Bulldog4 (talk) 22:20, 24 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proof 

message: I would like to thank those Editors who have recently edited the page Matthew Gordon Banks. Mr Gordon-Banks would like to apologise to Moist Towlett and will try, if the system will allow this IP to revove remarks in the Talk Section. This IP promises NOT to seek to change at any time the contect of the biog, but will seek to draw to the attention of Editors material that might or should be included. This is intended to work WITH Wiki Editors. When the subject is access, it is usually because people are interested in what he says on International Relations. Thus it is a rather incomplete Biog. Here is our first suggestion:
This is in fact an alteration suggested. In the 2010 section regarding Oliver Letwin suggest delete "no charges were brought" and replace it with - directly from the Daily Telegraph Article quoted which is very accurate, (on 24th Dec 2011) "the CPS and Metropolitan Police issued a statement stating no crime had been committed" - (In fact it was Dr Sir Oliver Letwin who was cautioned by the information Commissioner)
It is in the newspaper article. Bringing no charges is rather different from the statement issued and subsequently reported by the Daily Telegraph.
We hope an editor might be good enough to look at your DT source article and agree this suggestion is fairer. Thank you.2A00:23C1:6C0C:A401:4883:4AA5:5319:84AD (talk) 17:30, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Accuracy, Apology and Promise 

message: To those editors who mention the Oxford Mail, two points.
1. The Daily Express and Daily Mail copied and embellished an article from a young Oxford Mail reporter. When questioned and investigated they realised it was not true and removed the articles from the internet. 
2. It is the Courts in Oxford that have summoned the young reporter to Court in October relating to Contempt of Court. At NO stage has Mr Gordon-Banks or his representatives sought to pursue the young reporter. A2A00:23C1:6C0C:A401:46F:4B2D:1911:C344 (talk) 02:40, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  This Alleged Drink Drive Biz 

message: Regarding the recent edits concerning "my" surname.
May "I" make it clear my surname is Gordon Banks. This appears in my Passport. I was known simply as Matthew Banks as an MP which over20 years ago!  
As to Public Life - I left Public life not in 2016 but when resigning as a Councillor in Cotswold District (where I was the Chairman of the Overview and Scrutiny Committee) in November 2004; some 14 years ago. Being a Member of, any, political Party until 2016 does not in my view constitute being in Public Life.
Finally, whilst The Daily Mail Group and an Oxford paper wrote some things about my driving licence being revoked the articles are substantially inaccurate. This very week commencing 2nd July 2018, both newspapers refuse to cover the current complaints being dealt with by Thames Valley Police Professional Standards of Perjury by two police officers last year, which is easily proven, two cases of gross misconduct where I was forcibly removed against medical advice from my sick bed at home, the alteration to cover the police of my NHS medical records by an NHS nurse, and the defamatory untrue statements of a male nurse from Mountain Health contracted to the TV Police. I am not seeking the sacking of any police officers and certainly not having them jailed for Perjury but I am trying to highlight in the press the above to balance what people write.
I have long since promised not to attempt to alter what little there now is in my entry. All my work overseas for the Ministry of Defence has been removed - thus all that would be of interest to International Relations practitioners. The Alleged anti-Semite remark made when I was suffering very badly from PTSD in my view takes a disproportionate amount of space. At the time I was seeking to draw attention to Tim Farron MP taking money for his Leadership bid from several donors, whom at that time, were under investigation for bribery by the SFO. The only reason they were not charged was because rolls Royce paid a £600m fine.92.38.138.111 (talk) 09:59, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

message: The items to which you refer AND the history has been removed. 
Your remarks about my comments regarding Philip Cross are most unfair. Mr Cross has edited Wiki accounts throughout the day most days for several years!! He has been banned from Editing on Wikipedia (if that is not proof enough of my telling the truth I do not know what is) and Social media is full of the names, including mine, whose Wiki pages he has altered. He is also liked to journalists and one in particular at The Times. One wonders whether you are in anyway connected with this group given your remarks about my truthful comments. Things like frivolous. People take photo's of my movements and my driver everywhere we go.
The sexual remarks were placed on the internet on 25th October, and within a few days an ISP had put them on the Wiki page. I too am very surprised the history of that action has been removed but there is police involvement. I have not made that point up. It has also this week affected my daughter's teaching career. In my case it happens because some powerful people do not like my attempts to improve dialogue between London and Moscow. I was also accused of having links to Russian intelligence which is nonsense. I only meet diplomats. You will find the article I refer to if you google my name. My dates are correct and we are in contact with the 21 yr olds parents. 62.128.217.99 (talk) 19:56, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for adding clarity. As this is a complex issue I think you should resolve this by going through the official Wiki dispute resolution process, they will allow you to reach a fair and timely consensus regarding your concerns.95.144.83.166 (talk) 11:21, 1 December 2018 (UTC)

message: Once again, Mr Gordon-Banks was NOT charged with Failure to Stop". Editors are not reading source 10 news item carefully enough. Here is the key phrase from
a Prosecutor not using words carefully (deliberately) "Mr Ryman told the court an officer found Gordon-Banks 'stumbling' along the road 'so intoxicated he had to steady himself against a garden wall". Mr GB is disabled. He had actually walked nowhere. The garden wall was his own garden wall. So why do Editor's insist on adding this Failure to Stop unless it is vexatious? 62.128.217.97 (talk) 13:37, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Recent Edits _"Failure to Stop" 

message: In the over-editing and vandalism on this biography an (any) experienced editor has not replaced wording in the Parliamentary Career Section which is probably the most important item removed. Please may I suggest wording be added along the following lines, please:
"1996-7 PPS at the Department of the Environment to Minister's of State, David Curry and Robert Jones". 1. source can remain item 4 2. Strongly suggest placing in "Dept of Environment" as most readers will not know whom Curry and Jones (now dead) were, or which Department they/he served in. Gordon Banks's responsibilities were "Local Government, Housing and Planning" (also covered in the item 4 press release used as evidence which came from the Local Government Association) I hope this is helpful.

thread_title:  1996-7 Parliamentary Private Secretary @ Dept of the Environment 

message: (Removed a long time ago by someone) In the early stages of this biography it should be added by any experienced Editor that Banks made "the only Conservative gain in England" (in the 1992 election - which was a spectacular local win against the trend of Conservatives losing a huge number of seats. Proof can be found with an easy Google of BBC election results to quote BBC. (The Conservatives also one one seat in Scotland, Aberdeen South and one in Wales, Brecon and Radnor)  92.29.194.218 (talk) 17:58, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

message: I would like to thank Editors whom prevent a further and very nasty alteration to my Wiki bio on 1st June. Between June and 16 June, I have suffered frequent and nasty intrusions into my private life. I do not know whom the now blocked perpetrator was but I am certain what they had to add was both defamatory and untrue. In the last 14 days I have been subjected to huge pressure under social media. 
My Wiki page has been filleted of most of the useful information outsiders might require. Phillip Cross and Moist Towlett who have been banned have alter the balance in favor of bad news rather than my career. This latest example Wiki editors have fast blocked is clearly untrue but as he is blocked I cannot msee the exact allegation - which I expect is something sexual. It is tiresome that Not a Single Peice of evidence has ever been produced. Thank you for blocking these rogue editors.  MGB2A00:23A8:983:6D01:7909:63A8:F375:7FCF (talk) 01:47, 16 June 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Matthew Gordon-Banks 

message: Although recently US Editors with no axe to grind have made better shape of MY biography, we now have an edit from JKAHARPER whose names is familiar as are 2-3 others who work for the UK State in besmirching the names of those who take alternative views to UK Govt policy.
Mr Harper has added in what he regards as the same articles re drink driving when a consensus had been agreed - not as he alleges by sock-puppets or friends of mine - but by editors I believe based in the US. 
1. The concensus is broken by JKAHarper.
2. He makes a hash of the changes and does not get the sex correct of an alleged victim, who turned out to be a fraudster in her insurance claim.
3. He places a heading of Expulsion from the Liberal Democrat Party - there cannot be any evidence for this as I resigned. 
In Jan 2021 when matters come to Court it will be seen that my Insurance company wrote as long ago as 2017 that I could not have been the driver of the car in question for the detailed reasons my insurer sets out. 
These changes are done by State backed employees. I ask that the recent changes be undone and I consider it libellous on the part of JKAHarper to suggest I have anything to do with American editors I have never even heard of.2A00:23A8:983:6D01:40F8:7679:FA3D:A237 (talk) 22:49, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
