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.
12 December (Part 1) - The borough divide
Wilton Road in Abbey Wood is the only, albeit minor, shopping centre which
spans both Bexley and Greenwich boroughs. A month ago
both Councils offered, through the Traders’ Association,
to put up Christmas decorations to a maximum expenditure of £900. The Association chose the simple option of a
few lights and for the past week the Greenwich side of the road has been adorned
by three clusters. Nothing spectacular but no doubt the labour costs are high and it is only a little road.
Nothing at all on the Bexley side so I waited a week in case it was just a minor
hiccup. Still nothing as I passed by in the rain last night so immediately below
is the not very good phone photo. Beneath it is a reminder of what 2019 looked
like. In 2020 there were no lights, Covid related obviously. Everything stops for Covid.
