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.
1 October (Part 1) - How was that one slipped by us?
They
say these things can spring up overnight and apparently its true.
Hugh Neal reports on his Erith blog that a 500kW wind turbine appeared at the end
of his garden - almost - last Friday. No one seems to have seen it coming. No
reports in the News Shopper and none in the Bexley Times either. Obviously I am
not keeping a close enough eye on the Planning Committee agenda. 500 kWatts
should power quite a good number of flaming torches.
Yesterday’s Sunday Telegraph reported that last week more than 50% of our electricity
came from coal fired power stations and only 1·3% from wind but in six months
time coal fired plant able to deliver 20% of our needs is to be closed under an EU
directive. Perhaps every back garden needs a wind turbine. Perhaps the country needs
a politician with a brain.
