Not the best of holiday weekends for me. One family member mugged on her own
doorstep and another with a written off car, but fortunately no life changing
injuries, after being hit by an idiot coming round a blind bend at
speed on the wrong side of the road claiming he had lost his steering! All three emergency services in attendance.
Not
so exciting on the Bexley front. I always assume that most blog readers don’t
confine their browsing to Bonkers and will therefore be well aware of everything even
vaguely Bexley related, but for those who missed it, someone with too much time
on their hands played silly devils with Google’s auto-complete
feature. They typed in the names of all the London boroughs and put on record what Google
suggested. Unsurprisingly, Google responded ’Bonkers’ to Bexley.
Unsurprising because for many months past if you’ve put the single word Bonkers
into Google, Bexley-is-Bonkers shows up on the first page. After a handful of
references to a song (?) by someone called Dizzee Rascal and the dictionary
definition of the word, there on page 1 for all the world to see is the link to Bexley
council’s shameful exploits. Well done Teresa, your ill judged decision to ask
the police to exceed their authority - which they willingly did - appears to
have backfired rather spectacularly. And thanks are also due to councillor Peter Craske for
his invaluable contribution to the trashing of the London Borough of Bexley’s reputation worldwide.
There will be a council committee meeting tomorrow evening
which I shall attend so this will serve as notice that
Teresa O’Neill has less than 36 hours left in which to rig it, as a rather too voluble councillor
admitted she always does.
