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.
7 September (Part 2) - Confusion and delusion
As
noted yesterday, the comments on the News Shopper website about Bexley council claiming to be considering the
new rules on transparency and openness
displayed universal condemnation of Bexley council. I found that encouraging, my motto has always been keep plugging
away and eventually the message will get through. However one of the comments on
the Shopper’s website said that Olly Cromwell had already been banned from council meetings yet
again. I suspect this originated from a misreading of the extract from
Will Tuckley’s letter published yesterday.
Olly thinks so too and confirms it is not so, he is currently free to attend any council
meeting, there is no ban and a judge has said a ban would be an offence against his democratic rights.
One of Tuckley’s reasons for the ban is councillor Melvin Seymour’s lie about his
letter box being under threat. A lie now totally discredited in court. Tuckley
wrote three pages about Olly’s alleged misbehaviour in the council chamber but
he did nothing that would offend any of Eric Pickles’, the Communities
Secretary, new rules. So Tuckley will be hard pressed to stop Olly attending
more meetings and if he did you can be pretty sure there would be a big splash in the
newspapers. Surely the quarter million pound chief executive won’t be intent on dragging
Bexley council’s reputation any lower than it is already? But I won’t be betting on it.
