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.

4 February (Part 1) - Another Party Pooper

Bexley Council has been accused of many things over the years but I only recall it being accused of fraud on one previous occasion. That was when the parking department was found to have two contracts with the enforcement company. One for public consumption and another for internal use only.

Bonkers has never published the Council’s own report on the matter but its Internal Auditor was (gross understatement) not at all happy about it and the official auditor recommended that I take Bexley Council to Court over it at my expense. It was what made me think that part of the Auditor’s job is to protect their own contract and turn as much as possible into “Good News”.

Fraud?@tonyofsidcup has only 35 Twitter followers and is blocked or ignored by every Bexley Councillor apart from Sue Gower (Conservative, Bexleyheath) and one can understand why. The same reason as access to Bonkers was (is?) banned in libraries and Council offices.

‘Tony’ has been leading an almost one man campaign on the strange circumstances which led up to the so called Volunteer Event held in Danson Park last August.

He summed up the situation neatly on 9th January 2022. No public tender, no legal authority to place a contract until four days before the event, a contract actually drawn up before that and an allegation of collusion at senior officer level with a favoured business.

All of which looks to be true.

Almost needless to say Bexley Council has neither acknowledged nor answered these serious allegations.

Depending on how one defines ‘favoured business’ everything Tony reported four weeks ago is a fact confirmed by FOI and the music event organised by the same favoured person was dramatically cancelled by Bexley Council maybe after recognising the danger they were in.
