1 January - Children of the Damned

Let’s trawl through the mainly anonymous messages that have recently arrived via the Contact form.

A handful of readers (well at least one!) are unimpressed with the Leader of Bexley Council becoming a Baroness.


Will 5 jobs Tess announce she’s resigning in the New Year message to Bexley? Would be a great gift to the people of her Kingdom. Maybe she could add bin collector to all her other jobs. She’s paid over £300 a day now, plus Councillor, Council Leader.


And a week or so earlier from a different name but in reality the same source֙…


Bexley making residents poorer. Now she’s got another job, Tessa O’Neil must be quids in. She knows how to milk the system while all the time the people of Bexley suffer.
Have you noticed each time she gets a new role services get worse? Now she makes £300 a day brown nosing in parliament. 5 Jobs Tess has to go.


Tess and BoJoI can’t get too worked up about that myself. You have a thoroughly dishonest Prime Minister lavishing riches on the Leader of a thoroughly dishonest Council. What does one expect?

Did I mention the message that simply said “Did you know that Louie French has his own YouTube channel? Can’t remember. https://www.youtube.com/@louiefrenchmp. Gareth Bacon has one too. https://www.youtube.com/@GarethBaconMP.

There have been the usual complaints about Bexley Council not providing Social Housing and about Thames Water disrupting the borough and Sidcup in particular.

Finally and perhaps intriguingly another old resident of Hoblands surfaced a few days ago. Hoblands was a children’s home run by Bexley Council and notorious for the allegations of child abuse made by several of its inmates. It was first mentioned here in 2013 when Bexley Council was busy covering up its involvement - or perhaps their lack of involvement - in the death of Rhys Lawrie and again in 2021. The Minor Attracted Person, or pervert to you and me, who ran Hoblands was jailed for ten years after being accused of 41 offences against children.

Bexley Council failed to learn. In 2011 they dismissed an employee of the Thames Innovation Centre (now The Engine House) who whistle blew on its manager for various acts of naughtiness. He later pleaded guilty at Woolwich Council Court to ten charges of paedophilia. The Cabinet Member who failed to sack him following serious complaints has thankfully long since left Bexley Council but the woman who appointed him is now a Baroness.
