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.
Here we go again, another 40 Acts of Parliament on the Statute Book to drive
us ever closer to being a police state. Whether you agree with them or not - I
am a fence sitter on the smoking ban for example (†) - every new law gives
the state more control over our lives.
According to press reports, Labour averages about 40 new Acts every year while
the almost as bad Conservatives usually hit the 30 mark. If you go back to the
1950s the figure was only just reaching double figures each year.
† I have to be careful what I say
about this one in case someone remembers what I was advocating in a very smoky office circa 1990.
Exactly what is proposed now. I am a little less dogmatic now but maybe not a lot.
