9 August - What Mr. Belvedere asked Mr. Rochester
The north
of the borough has become a bit of a tip, maybe it is just Belvedere and Abbey Wood which are as far as you can get from
the two part time recycling centres. Streetlife
is full of adverse comment.
Bexley’s food waste bins which are too frequently opened by foxes are also being blamed for
a plague of bluebottles. I had noticed them too but I have no need of a food bin
so I don’t know where they are coming from.
Informal observation of Bexley’s rubbish problem suggests that the Conservative
claim that the situation is not getting worse is ludicrous.
At April’s Council meeting
Councillor Daniel Francis tried to get Cabinet Member Don
Massey to offer an opinion on the state of Belvedere.
Don Massey dodged the issue by referring only to Bexley and he probably used the
name literally meaning the village where he lived until
buzzing off to Rochester.
New machinery is not going to help remove black sacks is it? What will it do, pressure wash the gutters?
