See these twitter threads from someone's twitter account for Paul Elliott's history in his involvement of the asset stripped girls school of St Elphins whose land has been redeveloped and sold since.
Initially, ownership involving Paul Elliott and others had apparently been under the guise of saving the school however 9 months later it was abruptly shut down without warning during student exams. The ownership had "illegally dismissed" school staff as found by a subsequent employment tribunal due to this lack of notice.

Paul Elliott ownership “BROKE THE LAW” as found by an St Elphins employment tribunal
Tax payers picked up the tribunal compensation cost
School shut without warning during key exams which threatened to “make boarding students homeless” of all ages.

Additionally an email was sent from someone to this twitter account recording a personal account of what happened whist the person had been working there as a teacher. This is a truly damning account that appears consistent with all media reports although more detailed from the perspective of someone on the ground at the time.

Paul Elliott ownership apparent disregard of law at St Elphins:
- Construction works began without planning permission + an unauthorised felling of a protected tree
- Likely that house construction was the plan from the off at St ElphinsArticle Referenced:
http://stelphins.co.uk/press22.htmlPossible Conclusion:What would appear apparently clear from all of these reports is that the current Charlton ownership has enormous parallels with what occurred at St Elphin's. The "owners" reportedly appear to have no regard for legal protections surrounding land development and are reportedly utterly ruthless in their pursuit of whatever it is they desire. How fans can act to halt this is of course the big question at Charlton.

Jim can then report back how the cruel Charlton fans have treated this visionary mate of his and how little difference a few more high rise blocks in SE London will make.
