Islington Survivors Failed by Islington Council SPS and DAC Beachcroft Solicitors Part 3

It cannot be denied that DAC Beachcroft Solicitors are responsible for the delay in payouts. However, it is unfair for the Islington Council Support Payment Scheme team (SPS) to shirk responsibility for the pace of DAC Beachcroft Solicitors’ work, as Islington Council presumably hired and is paying them. The Islington Council SPS team should demand regular updates to be given to the Islington Survivors’ victims. The Islington Council SPS team’s inability to address the lackadaisical approach of DAC Beachcroft Solicitors demonstrates either incompetence or a callous disregard for the Islington Survivors who are consistently being harmed and denigrated.
Victims of Islington Survivors predict that the Islington Council SPS team may use a lack of resources to avoid holding DAC Beachcroft Solicitors accountable for providing better service. On July 14th, 2023, an email was sent to Jeremy Corbyn MP and the Leader of the Islington Council, Councillor Kaya Comer-Schwartz, by an Islington Survivors victim, expressing the concerns and grievances of the Islington Survivors. The email requested that pressure be put on the Islington Council SPS team and DAC Beachcroft Solicitors to take responsibility for exacerbating the suffering of these victims. The Islington Council leader, Councillor Kaya Comer-Schwartz, responded to the issue and promised to investigate it. However, the problem persists, and the Islington Survivors who applied have not seen any improvement in their situation. A few days later, an email from Jeremy Corbyn’s office confirmed that Councillor Kaya Comer-Schwartz was handling the matter. Based on the poor track record of Linzi Roberts-Egan, Islington Council’s former Chief Executive, it is unlikely that any action will be taken to improve the situation. The Islington Survivors Support Scheme payouts have been delayed for an extended period without any explanation, causing distress and frustration among recipients. Elected local councillors like Kaya Comer-Schwartz are responsible for making decisions that affect their community. While they may not have as much political power as national figures, they are often more accessible to the residents they serve. Despite their limitations, councillors like Comer-Schwartz are understanding of their constituents’ struggles and willing to help when possible. In a June 2022 article published in the Islington Tribune, titled “Abuse Survivors ‘Left Out’ of Support Payments,” Islington Council Leader Kaya Comer-Schwartz, expressed remorse for the council’s past failure to protect vulnerable children in its children’s homes, calling it the darkest chapter in the council’s history. Islington Survivors are actively trying to gather additional evidence to support their complaint. This may help Jeremy Corbyn better understand the strength of the Islington Survivors’ position and enable him to advocate on their behalf more effectively. The Home Office must respond to the MP’s query. However, the Home Office may inform Jeremy Corbyn that all legal options have been exhausted and no further action can be taken. Islington Survivors must support Mr Corbyn by providing him with as much data as possible to help him fight for the Islington Survivors’ cause. Islington Survivors have faced repeated stonewalling in their quest for justice from the Islington Council SPS team who have consistently and relentlessly delayed and obstructed their efforts. Islington Survivors’ have nevertheless identified and steadfastly pointed out the shortcomings of the Islington Survivors Support Payment Scheme. Councillor Kaya Comer-Schwartz, the leader of Islington Council promised to address the issue with the Islington Council SPS team. On Thursday 20th, July 2023, the Islington Survivors victim attempted again to reach out to Jeremy Corbyn directly to communicate the urgent need for justice to be delivered to his constituents. The Islington Survivors interested party asked Jeremy Corbyn to consider the fact that up until now, she had interacted with a caseworker or other office staff when dealing with Jeremy Corbyn and not directly with him. The Islington Survivors victim further requested that Jeremy Corbyn pursue a potential legal action and judicial review against DAC Beachcroft Legal Services with the Home Office regarding the prolonged wait for Islington Survivors Support Scheme payouts for violating human rights. It is rare for the Home Secretary to get involved in a case unless it is prompted by an MP or if the case has received extensive media coverage due to its high-profile nature. However, if payouts are significantly and consistently delayed, Jeremy Corbyn may push for a resolution. Ideally, Islington Survivors ought to have legal representation. However, this may prove pointless as the legal community is inextricably united. To be continued…

Islington Survivors Failed by Islington Council SPS and DAC Beachcroft Solicitors Part 4

Image
An Islington Survivors victim has called on Jeremy Corbyn to explore the possibility of legal action against DAC Beachcroft Legal Services for violating human rights. Despite public criticism, DAC Beachcroft Legal Services seem unperturbed. The public speculates that DAC Beachcroft Legal Services believe they are above the law and immune to negative public opinion due to their position in the legal field. On Monday, July 24th, 2023, the same Islington Survivors victim, who had originally submitted her application in February of that same year, reported that DAC Beachcroft Legal Services, after a six-month wait, had finally accepted her application. Despite this positive outcome, the victim alleges that hers is an isolated incident. The victim observed that Local officials and projects must be scrutinized in-depth and held accountable. Democracy means giving power to the people, and local government must be reformed to reflect this principle. This, however, seems unlikely due to the co...

Private Compensation Claim Part 2 a Humiliating Process

Image
The process of making a private compensation claim should aim to reduce the impact of past traumas on the victims, prevent future harm, and seek justice. It appears that instead of helping, the situation is making things worse and putting the mental health of Islington Survivors at risk. These victims, who are already struggling with depression and other issues, are being forced to go through a trial-like experience once again, causing further damage. Regardless of their tactfulness, the Civil Litigation Solicitors Law Firm's approach is extremely traumatic and ultimately pointless. Civil litigation solicitors often fail to inform victims about the statute of limitations, leading them to have false hope and unrealistic expectations. The alleged victims experience and revisit trauma all over again, as they are faced with the prospect of their claim being rejected. This is in addition to the state of limbo a victim finds themselves in as they wait to hear about the outcome ...
