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.
I may not always agree with them politically but I’m finding that
Labour councillors representing Lesnes Abbey ward has one big advantage for me; they
actually answer questions whereas my previous councillor, Conservative John
Davey ignored me so successfully that I was driven to creating this
website. The man has a lot to answer for.
Davey eventually realised that too many people shared my
opinion of him and fled to Crayford allowing new brooms into the north west corner of the borough
and until I annoy them once too often, they aren’t running if I head in their direction.
I
aimed a quick and somewhat casual question at our youngest and possibly most enthusiastic councillor,
Danny Hackett. Had he seen the rather poor attempt at repairing the gate next to the derelict old Threshers
off-licence next door to the separate Harrow Inn site for which planning
permission for flats may one day be granted?
Danny was on the ball and knew all about that, he said the premises had been used for drug related
activities and he and his colleagues had leaned on the owners to repair the
gate. I’m not sure that cheap flooring panels would be my material of choice but
at least Danny and Co. didn’t need an election date to be approaching to get something
done, unlike the Conservative who ignored the similar problem next door for years until an election beckoned.
