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.
29 September (Part 1) - They have spent your money but what has been achieved?
Just
asking for a friend, you understand, but I cannot see any benefit from the recently completed Welling Corner road works
and readers have been asking. Maybe another reader knows the answer.
The old photo taken from Google Street View shows pedestrians protected by
railings when attempting to cross Bellegrove road. Those taken yesterday show a free for
all and a young lad streaking straight across. It is too tempting to do so and
those concentrating on looking to their left can all too easily trip down an unexpected kerb.
It would appear to be the new norm, a hundred yards or so further east the same
arrangements have been in place for a couple of years. Council leader
Teresa
O’Neill is keen on reducing street clutter but she should perhaps remember
that not all of us would survive a collision with a bus.
I found one of Teresa O’Neill’s statements about the new approach to road safety
to be rather worrying. She said “the road surface has been
re-laid to remove the distinction between the roadway
and the footway and kerbs have been lowered to encourage people to wander across
the street”. Whatever happened to the “Look right, look left and right again”
that was drummed into me at school?
