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.
7 March (Part 2) - TfL. Making roads that little bit more dangerous. It’s what they do.
It
must have been five or six years ago that I was walking up New Road in Abbey
Wood when a B11 bus pulled into the middle of the road to pass a parked car and
another one hit it head on. If I had to guess, the car driver was going too
fast and he saw the bus to late. It’s only in recent years that I learned to
always carry a camera which is probably why I can’t find any photos of the incident.
One would hope the car driver learned from his experience but it would seem that
Transport for London has not. Their new bus stop in New Road, only a matter of
yards from the scene of the earlier incident, pushes all vehicles towards the
middle of the road close to a bend.
Overtaking a stationary bus has become a much more dangerous manoeuvre. Well done
TfL. What a bunch of clowns. The bus stop ‘flag’ isn’t even very near to the
road markings. The road marking is new by the way so it provides one more
opportunity for Alex Sawyer to impose a fine.
