25. Letter to the Commissioner from
Neighbour 3 (constituency), received 25 January 2010
We live in the property directly next door to the
house of Nadine Dorries, the MP, and we are the only property
which has a front door next to hers. We live in a terraced row
of houses.
Her kitchen and our living room are next to each
other.
Mrs Dorries has no carpets and so not only do we
see her car pull up when she arrives and leaves, we can hear her.
We can hear the sound of the water running, the kettle
filling and the switch being switched on and off.
We can hear almost every word if she has her daughter
with her as the walls are so thin. We can also hear her walking
up and down the stairs.
When she does arrive at the house it is often very
late at night but because I watch television until quite late
I am usually still up. She often waves as she gets out of the
car. When she leaves it is usually very early, well before our
children leave for school.
Sometimes I see her arriving early in the morning
and then she leaves later in the day but she doesn't return.
It would be absolutely true for me to say that Nadine
Dorries is hardly ever here and I hardly ever see her. If I had
to put a number on it I would say I have seen her about twenty
times over the last year.
When she isn't going to be at the house for long
periods of time she lets us know so that we can keep an eye out.
She was away from the house from the beginning of
July until October right the way through but we did see her during
the day sometimes. She said she was coming to collect post and
work in the office which she has in the house.
She often brings her dog with her and sometimes her
daughter. When she comes back late at night she always gets out
of the car alone.
There are neighbours on the other side but they have
a house in France and are away most of the time. They have only
been here for about three weeks out of the last six months that
I can recall.
If the Telegraph
is right and they have sent you a statement then I hope they have
made that clear.
