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.
27 January (Part 3) - Please drop the fags
About five years ago I went to the Imperial War Museum in Lambeth to look at
their Holocaust exhibition; whether it is permanent or not I do not know but I do remember that
I was unable to stay there as long as I could have done because it was far too upsetting.
On this Holocaust Memorial Day I wondered if there was anything I had on record to mark the occasion,
but sadly not but I do remember a lady I used to see regularly when living in Hampshire who had a number tattoed on her upper arm.
No real connection except for the period of history in question but I will answer the sceptic who didn’t think that the RAF
dropped cigarettes as well as bombs during the 1939-1945 war.
Made in London when it was an industrialised city.
These images are no longer regarded as SECRET, they may be inspected at the National Archives; not during lockdown
of course. War didn’t stop us going about our business but unfortunately a virus does.
For the record, the drop was made by 161 squadron and not my father’s 138 but they shared responsibilities at the same airfield.
