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 March (Part 2) - No more Trust
The Bexley Times reports that the Trust that managed Hall Place held its final meeting last night before Bexley Council takes back control.
The
bit that caught my eye was the claim that the Trust has operated the site
effectively and in a solvent fashion which might well be true but Bexley Council doesn’t think so.
There was
scathing criticism at the Places Scrutiny Committee
last December. The Trust “had not done a very good job” and the Council had to write off their £2·5 million loan to the Trust.
Exactly why it had to be written off escapes me, the last accounts
filed by the Trust at Companies House show a seven figure balance sheet.
Maybe the Trust was badly run, one of its Directors was Colin Campbell, Deputy
Leader of Bexley Council until he stood down at the May 2014 election.
Mr. Campbell is a local business man of some note about whom
many stories surfaced while he was a Councillor in Bexley. I have no idea
where Bexley's £2·5 million went.
