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.
Wilton and Gayton Roads jammed

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?
