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 September - You wait ages for a joke on Bonkers and three come along together
There is probably not enough humour on Bonkers, joke councillors in abundance but little to tickle the ribs. Until now perhaps.
Bexley
council is sponsoring
The Bexley Business Awards
and just look who has the gall to be offering their advice. None other than three failed Bexley business people.
On the left you see Ian Payne, manager of Bexley’s Business Improvement District (BID) and the man who masterminded
a 7% drop in trade
in the town centre. By his side are cabinet members Linda ‘Biffa’
Bailey and the ubiquitous Teresa O’Neill chasing another photo opportunity.
The BID is still showing up on the Companies House website as
not having filed its accounts.
Bailey and O’Neill are Directors of the wholly Bexley council owned Thames Innovation
Centre - a centre of mismanagement that would have gone bust years ago if not
supported by the council tax payer. Despite being given more advantageous business
terms in the form of contracts, interest free loans and goods delivered through the
back door, it has lost money every year since it opened. More last year than the year
before. Yes, this threesome are the perfect people to recognise successful local businessmen.

Ian Payne doubles up as Deputy Mayor of Bromley. He is a salaried employee of Bexley council.
