31 January - Bexley is Bonkers tops search engine rankings
It
has taken fewer than four months for this site to become the first choice at both Google and
Yahoo for searches for ‘Bexley council’. Top that is apart from the council’s
own site which is almost certainly top because they use your money to buy that
position. Being placed directly beneath the council’s own site means
that everyone who Googles for Bexley council has the opportunity to see what a useless
bunch of incompetent petty dictators they are. The high ranking presumably explains the
steadily rising number of contacts being made. One thing that strikes me about the contacts,
sometimes consisting of no more than a handful of words of encouragement, but occasionally
including documents and photos, is the almost universal disdain for Councillor Craske, the so
called Cabinet Member for Transport, the post that rakes in more than £20k a year in expenses alone.
My labelling of him a little twerp seems to have gone down
particularly well although in the interest of fairness I must report that
someone objected on the grounds that I had failed to provide evidence that he
was little. That may well be true although I might claim it was a reference to
his intellect. But if that excuse is not accepted I shall have to refer to a publicity shot of all
the Conservative councillors standing in a group in which Craske’s presence is not immediately
obvious. However a pair of eyes peer over the shoulder of the second
shortest woman in the front row and they look as though they could belong to the face that never
tires of getting itself into the pages of the News Shopper.
