History of the Complaint to the Worshipful Company of Skinners
The complaint submitted to the Worshipful Company of Skinners of which the Author has been a Liveryman since 1972 preceded by a period as a Freeman, and before that as an Apprentice is simply a cut down version of that submitted to the Institution of Civil Engineers.
The complaint was received by the Clerk to the Company Andrew Kennett CB CBE who forwarded it to the Author on 19th August 2023, and commented in the following terms:
I am forwarding this unusual correspondence simply to make you aware of it. I and the Court of Skinners’ Company have absolutely no interest in this matter whatsoever and wish you every success in dealing with what is an entirely private and/or professional matter that has nothing to do with your membership of Skinners’ Company
On responding to the Clerk, the Author received a last comment from him as follows:
I most certainly have ignored it and have no intention of gracing it with a reply !
The Author comments that the Institution of Civil Engineers could well have reviewed the original complaint and come to the same conclusion as the Clerk. They did not.
