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.
16 June (Part 2) - Sell the parks, then sell the shops
Both
Murky Depths and The News Shopper are carrying reports to the effect that
Erith’s Shopping Centre is for sale with an asking price of £18 million. Not a new idea.
When Bexley Conservatives were advocating selling parks to pay for the upkeep of
those that remained, UKIP Councillors proposed
selling the Bexleyheath and Erith shopping centres instead.
They were told in no uncertain terms that the idea was a non-starter
as Bexley Council did not own either. This was a great big
fib as the Acting Chief Executive was forced to admit.
Nearly six years later Bexley’s finances have been mismanaged to the extent that
the parks have been sold and the shops are going too. And still the local Tories
tell you that they are good with money!
