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.
4 March (Part 3) - Council Tax frozen
At this evening’s Cabinet Meeting council leader Teresa O’Neill
announced that Bexley’s Council Tax for 2013/14 will be frozen at this year’s
levels. This will be the third successive year the tax rate has not gone up - except for
those whose benefit has been withdrawn who will pay 5% instead of nothing. The
leader untruthfully claimed that this was the fourth year of the freeze but
while that may have been their intention in 2010/11 it didn’t actually happen.
Three years is a decent enough achievement, but Teresa O’Neill can never resist
a good lie.
The full report on the meeting may appear tomorrow if the time can be squeezed
out of a tight schedule. It would have been deadly dull but fortunately
councillor Munir Malik brightened things up towards the end.
