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.

18 August (Part 2) - Bexley Council : Worst in London

No discounts in BexleyIntrigued by the amount of money that people are asking for a day’s parking on their drive, £14 very close to Abbey Wood station, I researched parking charges more closely. I discovered that seven London Councils offer free residents’ parking permits for electric vehicles and most offer discounts. Some exceed 90% (Brent, Camden, Haringey and Islington). In Camden that amounts to £470 a year. It probably makes owning an EV there a ‘no brainer’.

Nine London Councils offer discounts on car park and street parking charges but only four offer EV drivers nothing at all.

Almost unnecessary to say which Council that would be, the highest taxing Tory borough in London apart from Croydon which Labour bankrupted.

The BexleyCo money pit has to be filled somehow.

Referring back Bexley’s inconsistently applied AW1 CPZ, I came across a commuter who was not aware of the upcoming restrictions and a flat dweller who believed she must buy a parking permit to use her landlord allocated space behind her flat. I hope no one else is making that mistake.
