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.
16 April - Expensive money for sale
Something that grabbed my attention on Hugh Neal’s Maggot Sandwich last weekend (third paragraph) was his observation that the number of empty shops on Bexleyheath Broadway had declined. He may be right, I’ll have to repeat the exercise of exactly a year ago as soon as I can although there will be no spare time in the immediate future - hence the quick and short blog for today.
What
I have noticed over the past year is the number of pawn and loan shops that appear to thrive in Bexleyheath.
Bright House, as Hugh has himself noted in the past, appears to prey on the poor with
attractive offers on domestic appliances and other essential household goods
accompanied by horrendous interest charges. A sort of retail Wonga. Maybe
Bexleyheath is not as prosperous as some politicians would have you believe.
