The temperature was 37C (98.6F) at computer trolley top level where I work inside my living room today at 1220 BST (GMT+1). The central heating pipes under the floor are nice and hot making the carpet under my feet hot. The temperature inside in the living room last night never went below 35C for this reason. When the heat starts rising in the morning so does the inside temperature. It doesn't fall back very much.

Torture harassment by those using the surveillance technology as a weapon 24/7 was stepped up to exploit this excessive heat with their continuous abuse carried out last night and today trying to take advantage of this additional factor contributing to their debility and incapacity objective from the surreptitious medication and chronic sleep deprivation induced from external sources.

It is currently 36C at 1745 BST (GMT+1) in my living room because there has been some cloud cover this afernoon outside. The heat from the central heating left on during the summer without its being able to be turned off is a major contributing factor to antisocial behaviour overall along with this standard set by those carrying out the surveillance technology abuse against me.

I've been addressing this anti social behaviour and the harassment today based upon hard evidence although every effort is made to debilitate and incapacitate me as much as possible along with the direct harasmsent to stop me from communicating the truth about what is going on.

According to the BBC weather web site for Notting Hill in London at 1500 GMT (1600 BST) the temperature was 30C; the relative humdity was 38; and the barometer was 1013 mB and falling. The high expected today is 32C. According to this my living room where I work is 6C above the outside temperature this afternoon due to the fact that the central heating is on. So far I'm lucky that the outside temperature is not worse. A break is forecast starting tomorrow with thunderstorms and slightly lower temperatures for the rest of the week. The barometer is falling today while the humidity and temprature are rising.

Those using the surveillance technology are intent upon doing as much damage as possible by exploiting the heat wave and the fact that the central heating is on. This effort is continuous and heard by me since they make this a part of the harassment/torture activity to induce a fear of violence while attempting to cause personal injury. Naturally, they attack me as viciously as possible for communicating this informtion while I am doing so. They use the surveillance technology to fabricate allegations.

By failing to repair the central heating for years so that it can be turned off during the summer, tenant management has carried out mass punishment against thousands of people. See yesterday's Web Journal entry for an expansion on this theme of overall harassment. The question arises as to whether those in charge at the top of the heap and those favoured by this group have been able to obtain a reapir of their central heating valves which will enable them to operate properly in their homes?

The way this mechanism works is that a valve in each flat can be turned on or off by reversing the flow of water which is done centrally. This existing system is set up to function this way. However, the valves are so old that they no longer function and turn on or off when the water flow direction is reversed. This valve in my flat has not been functioning for many years.

An alternative to this system is one where the water itself is changed at the boiler. This particular boiler does not have this facility because it has this one now in use which does not function. A decision has had to be made about whether the boiler should be replaced or the valves in each individual flat replaced. Tenant management has opted to do the latter for the 900 or so units in the Lancaster West Estate during the three months from mid-June to mid-September 2006. Even then there has been something written about "stage 3' which will occur in 2007.

I want to know all the reasons for making the decision to change the valves in each flat during the three months of this summer instead of replacing the boiler and have it all done centrally and quickly for now and the future without the problem of the valves creating a fault once again. Why was this decision made? On what basis was it made? It strikes me as the wrong decision to make that causes far more work and continues the risk to the tenants and residents of the Lancaster West Estate.

Why wasn't the boiler changed which could be done quickly. I've seen a boiler changed in a small building of some 23 flats in one day. Surely this boiler could be changed in a matter of a couple days. Then all the changes from between winter and summer could be centrally controlled and executed, and any problems with the system could be repaired at the boiler.

Now all of this will have to be done once again at some point in the future when these valves start failing. There is nothing to ensure that these valves will last any length of time, and we are living in an environment where the overall temperature will be rising with more and hotter heat waves in the future. The replacement valves could fail next year for one reason or another.

I have some very serious questions I want tenant management to answer as to why it has elected to make this repair decision for each individual flat instead of changing the boiler. The decision to change each flat's valve creates havoc over an extended period of time, does not ensure that it will be done for all, further subjects people to this hot living environment at their own expense since everyone pays for heat and hot water separately and carries on with the punishment which was started with the failure to repair in the first place years ago.

Some eight or nine years ago it was necessary to refurbish the boiler. At that time there were two alternatives 1) a short term less expensive refurbishment with a life of two or three years duration; and (2) a longer term refurbishment for more years of restored life to the boiler. The difference between the two was the cost. The decision made was to opt for the short term, least costly refurbishment although the longer term refurbishment made more sense according to the person who described this to me.

Evidently, the boiler appears to be aged itself and had to be refurbished at this point almost a decade ago. It does not make sense to me if the boiler is old not to replace it to solve the problems which might arise with respect to the boiler as well as solve the current central heating faillure to turn off properly. It appears that tenant management is opting for the least costly alternatively while leaving an older boiler in place that is subject to future problems.

The central government has given the TMO some 40 million GBP to improve its housing. Where is this money going? Why isn't it being used to replace the boiler and solve all the problems present and future? This central hearing problem was known three years ago during the Audit Commission Housing Inspectorate's first inspection when I reported the problem to the Leader of the Council and the TMO Chief Executive in the first week of August 2003 at that time during that devastating heat wave. This is when the TMO was awarded two stars as a result of that inspection which entitled it to the 40 million GBP in two payments.

At that time there was a project underway which was just starting costing over one million GBP to construct 38 business units in Barandon Road of the Lancaster West Estate. All these funds and the time and energy necessary to carry out this project took priority over solving the central heating problem in 2003. Instead, it has been delayed for three years and three summers later while funds were expended on business unit construction, and the money from the central government evidently went somewhere else. The result is that thousands of lives have been put at risk during these four summers.

Now it appears that tenant management has made the cheap decision once again which could be problematic in the future just as it disregarded the thousands of tenants in the Lancaster West Estate to delay solving the problem with respect to solving the central hearing problem.

What happens if a new boiler is needed in the near future?

What about fuel efficiency as its costs soar which must be paid by tenants in the future?

What happens if these hundreds of valves have failures?

Where did the money go which should have been allocated to solving this problem back in 2003?

Why were business units constructed at a cost over one million GBP when the central heating failed system was ignored impacting thousands of people by putting health and safety at risk?

Why will there be an disruption to all the people in the Lancaster West Estate throughout the three months of this summer when a boiler could have been installed at one go to solve the current and potential problems before the summer?

Are the tenants and residents of the Lancaster West Estate being given short shrift out of deliberate disregard and denial of essential services necessary for health and safety?

Who is actually making these decisions out of the three tenant management organisations and the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea?

The Kensington & Chelsea Tenant Management Organisation (TMO)

The Lancaster West Estate Management Board (EMB)

The Lancaster West Tenants and Residents Association (TRA)

The Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea

This was the temperature reading of 36C at 2300 tonight. There was never a drop in the evening from this level due to the hot central heating pipes in the floor.
