24 November (Part 2) - Ken rattles Bexley council
Every now and again I get the impression that Bexley council is worried
that their antics are being subjected to too much public scrutiny. Yesterday’s
News Shopper gave its front page to Ken Livingstone’s visit on Monday when
traders told him exactly what they thought of Bexley Conservatives setting out
to ruin their businesses with ever higher parking charges and monthly fees for
putting a flower pot outside their doors. A phone call from a friend on the
inside said Bexley council is not sure where to hide and 46 views of this page
yesterday from the House of Commons suggests they can’t.
One thing Bexley Conservatives did do yesterday was hand out
anti-Ken leaflets
to commuters as they got off their trains. A kind lady took a picture of them on
her mobile phone. Click the image for a better view.
Even though the ‘Facts’ may be true the same sort of list could be compiled
against Bexley Conservatives. I think I’ll make a start by making a table of
parking charges to see if councillor Craske’s claim that Bexley is cheapest is a
great big lie or not.
