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.
27 September (Part 2) - Don’t hold your breath
Eric Pickles
has spoken again and today’s headline writers are occupied with his latest wheeze.
He wants to put an end to gestapo wagons and CCTV surveillance of parking spaces.
In the past the Minister for Local Government has pontificated on all manner of
subjects from weekly dustbin collections to filming council meetings; and what
has he actually achieved? The bloggers’ desk. Councils must now provide a place
at council meetings for a man to rest his notebook.
In every other area of activity dishonest councils - is there any other sort? - are
free to stand behind the Secretary of State grinning while thumbing their noses.
If guidance worked we wouldn’t have gestapo wagons now because they are only
supposed to be used where it would be unsafe for the job to be done on foot.
Pass some legislation Eric, you know it makes sense.
