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.
5 September - Site maintenance
I have been using the quiet period created by Bexley councillors having
almost shut up shop to do some maintenance on the site. There were too many
links to pages at Bexley council that have been broken because the pages there
were removed and the list of links to other local sites required an overhaul. As part of
that they have been brought together under a single menu instead of being spread
across several. Now it is done I’m not sure it is all to the good and may
need further adjustments. While checking the links I noticed that The Bexley
Chronicle series of newspapers has restored its archive of old issues for which
I am very grateful. Thanks Bob. Check them out via the new Links menu above.
Following a comment from a reader who asked why some text is in red I should
perhaps issue a reminder that it indicates a link to another relevant part of
the site. Hover the mouse pointer over it for an explanation of where the link
will take you. Most often they will be to older blogs on the same subject but
sometimes more detail on the current one.
