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.

30 April (Part 1) - Idiots everywhere

Maybe it was some sort of idiocy to have embarked on a household job which has evolved into a partial rewire of the whole house. An interesting but costly project which has taken every spare moment for several months. I am currently held up - and for the third time! - by Evri’s failure to deliver something vital to the Belvedere branch of Toolstation from the company’s main warehouse.

Meanwhile Bexley Council has been pushing forward with its various plans to make our lives worse and more expensive. There will be more motorist fleecing via their unnecessary yellow box junction fraud, charging to visit the dump more often than they deem reasonable and concreting over every spare, and not so spare, space that they can find. Various local facilities will be concreted over; where will I get my building supplies from when both Pepper’s and Buildbase have gone?

Contaminated bin Bad parking Bad parking Bad parkingOn the mundane and possibly boring front Country Style are on yet another repeat of their refusal to replace a broken bin, encourage fly tippers to lift the unlocked lid and contaminate it. Then use that as an excuse not to empty it so it eventually overflows and reluctantly come and empty it anyway which they may as well have done in the first place. It’s only four weeks since the last such episode

Idiots.

The Elizabeth line commuter parking problem has not gone away and drivers who flout the parking rules have been getting tickets, once within five minutes of the online report, but road blocking does not incur any penalties.

I have several times had to drive on the footpath which probably does no harm but so does the bin lorry which probably weighs rather more than my car.

Bexley Council’s new CPZ plans appear to be designed to make the situation worse but with Craske in charge we should expect nothing else.
