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.

1 December - Bexley Council fails again - and again!

Cabinot
Webcast failureThe only blog that is always planned in advance is the one scheduled for the first day of the month. Today it was supposed to be a report on last Thursday’s Cabinet meeting.

I was not able to go in person because I had another engagement and in the event didn’t go to either or even listen on line; that is because a nasty sneezing cold came out of nowhere and hit me for six. It is a bit better now but not a lot.

Nevermind, there is always the webcast, except that over the past few months they have become very unreliable. The cameras focus on the wrong person and sometimes there is a total failure to broadcast anything - which is what happened last week.

Not much of a public meeting and a perfect opportunity to hide bad news.


Idiocy
Broken binThis is my nearest big paper bin. A week ago it was marked ‘Contaminated’ because someone had dumped plastic bottles in it. A shame because it was well filled with thick cardboard and paper. A week later it is definitely very contaminated and I haven’t any idea who does it, but I do know how it gets to be contaminated.

The lid has been broken since before CountryStyle took over the recycling contract.

It is just a case of a twisted hinge and probably repairable by anyone prepared to apply a bit of force to it.

But no, Bexley Council would rather have a contaminated bin and pay for it to be incinerated than apply a bit of common sense.
