The unusual site banners are to bring attention to the fact that Labour activists in Bexley are manipulating Facebook Groups with fictional posters. They deny it, threaten police action for ‘harassing’ a fictitious character and then demonstrate their willingness to impersonate by creating a false Administrator account in my name. The banner on display is chosen randomly from a selection of three, with a fourth bearing the familiar Bexley Council is Bonkers logo.
3 August (Part 1) - Ombudsman criticises Bexley council over parking fine
In condemning Bexley council for its inflexible attitude to enforcing parking fines the Local Government Ombudsman recommended that Bexley council “undertakes a review of its automated PCN recovery procedure, ensuring that correspondence is considered even if received outside the statutory notification period to ensure it considers its discretion based on the individual circumstances of each case”. A Bexley council spokesman with the supreme arrogance one has come to expect from it said that “changes to procedures would have to be balanced against efficiency and cost”. Yet another example of Bexley council deciding that the rulings of Adjudicators, Ombudsmen and Judges don’t apply to them.
