14 May - Ignorance reigns

Ben Hopton on FacebookI have been trying to contact active local Reform UK members with some degree of success and will be meeting at least one this evening.

So far I have discovered that their Leader will be Sean Brackstone the newly elected Councillor for Northumberland Heath. One of the youngest Bexley Councillors. But not as young as Danny Hackett in 2014.

Mrs, Hopton is still obsessed by Bexley Reform and has suggested that Reformers have facial deformities. The comments used the word ugly. Mrs. H. is obviously totally ignorant of the fact that all photos posted to Facebook (and Social Media generally) are electronically compressed to reduce the load on their servers. The more detail in the photo, such as a sea of faces, the bigger the loss of defintion.

All photos on Bonkers are similarly compressed but maybe not as aggressively as those on Facebook.

To help out the deluded lass and maybe set her mind at rest that Bexley is not about to be governed by the zombies who may occupy her wildest dreams, an enlarged version of the photo with less compression may be seen below.

I think, but not absolutely sure, that Sean Brackstone is the young fellow standing next to former Conservative Parliamentary candidate Amandeep Singh Bhogal. In the turban obviously.

Good fellow is Amandeep, met him a few times way back.
