Many have speculated about the role of Common Purpose in Rotherham. Shaun Wright has even denied knowing anything of them, denials will look rather hollow in the light of this information:

Those of us who believe Common Purpose to be a most dangerous and subversive organisation will not be surprised by the PCC’s denial. (Nor would I be surprised if someone called me a ‘crazy conspiracy theorist’ lol.)
Common Purpose is deeply embedded in the government, local government and public sector, including the Police, NHS, Education, Social Services, Information Commissioners Office, Audit Office, Treasury, Cabinet Office and GCHQ to name but a few. Not forgetting of course, the business, charity, not-for-profit and think-tank sectors.
As to Common Purpose in Rotherham, here’s some older graduates. Maybe some of the names are familiar? (Type in Rotherham in the location box.)

Following on from the link, the very first name on the list is Julie Adamson. I don’t know her and I’m sure she’s very nice but she is Common Purpose and here she is, right at the heart of RMBC in June this year:

Whether you believe that Common Purpose has a ‘devious master plan’ or not, I worry that it is the modern day Old Boys (and Girls) Network. OBN’s rarely put the needs of the job above the needs of their members. I’d like to see them declare Common Purpose links (just like Mr Cameron has had to) so we can ask the questions when consultancies are brought in.
If Common Purpose has to be declared, then Shaun Wright and his ilk can’t say ‘dunno guv, news to me’.

There is a Matt Gladstone currently employed as an Executive Director by Barnsley MBC and a Sioned Mair-Richards is a councillor in Sheffield. Are they the same people?

Interesting comments by Ms Mair-Richards on her linkedin page (her words remember) about her role with RMBC:
“Scrutiny & Member Development Officer
Rotherham MBC
2002 – 2011 (9 years)
Support members to achieve their potential to become the best councillors possible”
…Sorry madam, guess that was 9 years wasted then cos it doesn’t seem you did a very good job at that!
Possibly too much “gin drinking”? (Again her words not mine.)

There has been a common thread in several posts on this forum alluding to Common Purpose and its pervasive influence in most state organisations (as listed by Warren Vale).
Shaun Wright can confirm or deny the following:
Common Purpose (CP) is a Charity, based in Great Britain, which creates ‘Future Leaders’ of society. CP selects individuals and ‘trains’ them to learn how society works, who ‘pulls the levers of power’ and how CP ‘graduates’ can use this knowledge to lead ‘Outside Authority’.
But evidence shows that Common Purpose is rather more than a Charity ‘empowering’ people and communities’. In fact, CP is an elitest pro-EU political organisation helping to replace democracy in UK, and worldwide, with CP chosen ‘elite’ leaders. In truth, their hidden networks and political objectives are undermining and destroying our democratic society and are threatening ‘free will’ in adults, teenagers and children. Their work is funded by public money and big business, including international banks.
The term ‘GRADUATE’ is used deliberately so as to prevent disclosure of involvement with Common Purpose. As ‘MEMBERS’ of CP, which is more appropriate, individuals in the public sector would have to declare their interests. So strong is the Common Purpose bond, that some individuals will lie to hide information and documents considered ‘dangerous’ to the CP cause. People challenging CP colleagues have been victimised and forced out of their positions.
Mrs Julia Middleton, the Chief Executive of Common Purpose, praises the work of German bankers. Deutsche Bank is, of course, a major power behind Common Purpose. Mrs Middleton, earning circa £80,000 p.a. from her charity, is also very happy to promote the term ‘USEFUL IDIOTS’ in her book ‘Beyond Authority’. Are we the General Public the USEFUL IDIOTS, or are the Elitest Common Purpose Graduates? You must decide.
We should remember that…Evil flourishes where good men do nothing.

Always worth repeating this quote from Middleton:
‘You start with clear and defined objectives … Then you establish what the obstacles are … they are usually people. So you have to establish what motivates them, and then decide if you can win them over by the power of the idea …Sometimes, if it gets messy, you might have to run over them, undermine them, go around them or discredit them. As a last resort, you consider bullying them, or buying them off.’
