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.
30 January - Forget Old Farm, Bexley Council has closed Lesnes Abbey park
Lesnes Abbey Park is a mess.
Bexley Council has been working on it, churned it up and left mud everywhere, park paths and adjacent roads. Now they have closed the area around the ruins.
How they justify the words ‘on time’ I do not know. Their own publicity brochure clearly states
that the Visitor Centre will open no later than December 2015 with ‘site wide’ improvements by that time.
There has of course been some rain but nothing exceptional, I haven’t used an umbrella this
year although I have carried one.
The paths have become treacherous but there was no attempt to clear the mud
until last Thursday when a man with a shovel had a go at it. It was an
impossible task and he gave up. The path cleaning machine he had with him was
useful only as a mobile bucket.
If Crossrail had failed to clear their mud off the roads, Abbey Wood station
would have become inaccessible long ago. The difference in project management
skills is obvious for all to see.
