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.
28 February (Part 1) - Bexley council. Uniquely secretive and dishonest
“Councils. They are all the same.” I hear that quite often but is it really true? I suspect wanton waste and incompetence is quite widespread. Persecuting motorists may be universal but you have to go a long way to find another council as secretive and criminally inclined as Teresa O’Neill’s Bexley.
Bexley and Carmarthen
councils appear to be alone in having residents touting cameras
arrested but the Welsh authority has recently relented and announced it intends to
webcast meetings. None, other than Bexley, is on record as making false statements to the police
hoping to give residents criminal records for “criticising councillors” or to prevent shop keepers from
reminding customers about parking restrictions outside their premises.
Perhaps Bexley council would welcome some guidance on how democracy is supposed
to work and if it does it could learn from a near neighbour. Bexley has more councillors
hiding their contact details from the public than the rest of London
put together but in Medway their magazine lists every councillor’s home address and
in most cases their email and telephone details too. Maybe there are no crooks
on Medway council who need protection.
In Bexley they don’t even let you see what rules the council claims to operate
under let alone members’ home phone numbers. Just look what you get instead of
the Constitution if you search their website.
Why is the old one withdrawn before a revision is available to the public?

announces its public meetings in their residents’ magazine too.
