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.
25 November - The Lewisham Conundrum
On a day that I and no doubt many other travellers were inconvenienced by yet
another signal failure at Lewisham it is perhaps appropriate to bring you
The Lewisham & Bexleyheath Community Rail Partnership’s ideas for improving
rail services in this part of South East London.
It is brim full of interesting proposals although where “significant decline [in
passenger numbers] at Charlton, Woolwich Dockyard, Plumstead and Abbey Wood on
the Greenwich line” came from I do not know. (Murky
Depths figures.) Abbey Wood always looks more popular than ever to me and the report
is not looking only at the Crossrail future but now. Also as usual Bexleyheath line passengers are keen to
deprive Abbey Wood of its Waterloo via Lewisham service. Abbey Wood lost Victoria services some years ago when Bexleyheath passengers
retained theirs and now they want to remove Charing Cross Services too.
