Mr. Cordell was polite and courteous towards the panel. He told the panel that
he did not accept that he has a mental illness or any need for medication. He
said he experienced anxiety and distress at his accommodation. He
indicated that the 48 allegations between the: 06/07/2016 and 02/10/2018 set
out in the medical report from an Enfield Council Report regarding concerns
and breaches of his tenancy agreement
were all fabricated. He did not accept that he was in any way at fault. He
repeated on several occasions that his neighbours had submitted a litany of
complaints to council officials about him in order to undermine his occupation
of the premises. He said that he has been stopped from organising festivals
and had set up a website to air his frustrations about his perception of the
injustice of his treatment. He told the panel that he would remain as a
voluntary patient.
