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.
12 September - Prophetic words
It must have been on this day 15 years ago that my then local Councillor and
Vice-Chairman of the Transport
Sub-Committee told me that road planning in Bexley was “Absolutely
Bonkers”. I must confess that memories are fading but I think he told me later
that he was specifically referring to
the
narrowing of Florence Road and not of Abbey Road as I assumed at the time.
He later said that those changes were the result of decisions made by the
outgoing Labour administration.
(More about Florence Road here.)
Whatever the truth of the matter I came home and registered the Bonkers internet domain name.
The website was very popular in its early days and was hitting 50,000 unique
visitors a month at one stage but
I am no longer sure what good it does now that
a thoroughly dishonest Bexley Council
has cleaned up its act. Despite that the domain renewal fee was paid today to keep
things going for another three years. I want it to be still
around when Two Tier Keir gets his just desserts. Three years should be plenty
long enough.

Since the opening of the Elizabeth line the Councillor’s words are amply justified twice a day when the artificially narrowed Florence Road brings the area to a standstill and there is no one on Bexley Council bright enough to recognise what needs to be done. Perhaps the new Councillor for Belvedere will look into it?
