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.

21 April (Part 1) - Crazy paving

Windsor Road Windsor RoadI live in a cul-de-sac which means hardly anybody passes by. The footpath outside my house doesn’t get used most days, not even by me, it should last for ever. Which is what a resident of Windsor Road thought about his quiet little backwater but Bexley council had other ideas. They came along and swapped the stones for asphalt as if it was the most worn out bit of paving in the borough - which it wasn’t.

One can only guess at the reason. It was an accounting fiddle over the last couple of days of the financial year? Someone with council connections lives there? The local crazy paving suppliers were running short of stock? No one knows.

Every property seems to have a dropped kerb but Bexley council still fails to acknowledge that vehicle rear wheels do not follow the same path as those at the front. None makes provision for that. The council was intransigent over alignment last year and are no better this. When renewing everything it costs no more to allow for geometry.
