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.

7 April - Are you going to vote for liars?

Yesterday I was persuaded to attend the first day of 2022 cricket at Lords; on a freebie ticket obviously, I am not totally mad, but I think it will be quite some while before I thaw out. While sheltering in the Members’ Pavilion after 4 p.m. Bexley Tories put out a lying Tweet. A theme they have used before, that car parking is cheap in Bexley.

I Googled for the nearest car park to Greenwich Town Centre and found Burney Street which sits between the northern entrance to the Park and the Cutty Sark which makes it the closest to the central shopping area.

Below is what I found…

Tory lie Greenwich Parking charges Greenwich Parking charges

Greenwich charges a small fraction of what Greenwich judges to be reasonable. £3·60 for ten hours instead of £4·70 for four hours. If those hours are in the evening it is far worse. Bexley charges, Greenwich doesn’t.

Lying about car parking charges is an old theme by Bexley Conservatives; they have been doing it on an off for the past ten years. In 2011 it prompted a comparison which may be seen here.

For the record most annual season tickets in Bexley are closer to £2,000 than £1,135 and even the £4·70 is not entirely true. The cash fee is £4·90 and there is a Ringo “Convenience charge” too. Do Bexley Tories lie? At every opportunity.
