16 October (Part 2) - The lies never cease

TweetThis is today’s product of Bexley Conservatives’ notoriously untruthful Twitter account. They claim that Labour Councillors said that Lesnes Abbey park was second rate.

What is the truth of the matter?

In 2010 Labour complained in an election address that Bexley’s Conservative Council had allowed the once “proud landmark” of Lesnes Abbey to to be blighted by rubbish and dog mess. The Tories said nothing about it in their own leaflets that year.

Labour followed up in 2014 by saying they would fight to improve the amenities at Lesnes Abbey. The Conservatives made no further comment in any leaflet delivered to me.

Bexley Conservatives must have decided for themselves that Lesnes Abbey park had been neglected because they persuaded The Heritage Lottery Fund to stump up £3·2 million I think it was, to restore it.

Please tell me, who is being economical with the truth again?

You always know when a Bexley Conservative Tweet is a not really true, they put a block on anyone replying. Just as well I was persuaded to keep this blog going!
