Faint Praise For WPCC Trustee
The following appears on the front page of PutneySW15;"Appointed Conservator - Ministry of DefenceIn May 2020, the first three-year term of the Conservator appointed by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) came to an end. The Chairman and Chief Executive requested the MoD re-appoint him for a further three-year term. The current Secretary of State, while recognising that the current MoD-Appointed Conservator had acquitted himself well, has chosen not to re-appoint him for the full three-year term." It is unheard of for a Whitehall trustee not to be reappointed at the end of his term, but the MoD Conservator, Mike Rappolt has been let go. Rappolt was appointed by Michael Fallon in breach of Cabinet Office rules in place at the time. Rappolt was reported to the Charity Commission for his bias in the WPCC's 2018 election when he acted as the Returning Officer. He, Lee and the then Chair backed the Gang of Five in their campaign to be elected. Rappolt wasn't neutral, he openly endorsed candidates who backed Lee's vision for the commons.
