He's not a GP doctor that's for sure, but one with an unbelievably large amount of time on his hands given that he also has a young daughter.
Here at Chislehurst Village News we have never been on the receiving end of a Freedom of Information request, and hopefully never will be. The making of such requests seem to be the daily diet of retired men with far too much time on their hands, not young fathers with children shortly about to start school.
A reader tips us off about the most extraordinary efforts Dr Creighton has been going to earlier this year to extract some information from Chislehurst C of E Primary School as to the number of applications, places offered and places taken up per year, broken down by the faith of the parents.
There then follows a year's worth of correspondence which is, in our view, a textbook example of why the Freedom of Information Act should be repealed!
It would be interesting to know just how much time is taken up by public bodies having to respond to such vexatious requests.
In the meantime, there must be someone who knows Dr Sean Creighton and / or which school his child got into. Did he get to the closet [sic] school to where he lives? (Given that he has written to at least 10 faith schools in the Borough he must move around an awful lot!) Has he worked out yet that Roman Catholicism and Church of England are denominations, not faiths? (Christianity is faith, but that was not what he was asking.)
You can read Dr Creighton's rants here whilst thanking God that you don't have to deal with this man! Sit down with a cup of tea and 20 minutes to spare.
