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.

20 July (Part 1) - The Abbey Road crash

Abbey Road crashI showed the crash photos to the former EU Vehicle Safety Committee Chairman and asked his opinion on the 100 m.p.h. impact claim. In 1997 he correctly estimated from photographs the Princess Diana crash speed as a little over 60 m.p.h. when the newspapers were suggesting twice as fast.

His response… “hitting a brick wall at 100 m.p.h. will always result in mincemeat.” Both occupants got away with it quite lightly. They were doing more than 30 m.p.h. but nowhere near 100.

There are no obvious skid marks on the road, only some paint marks which indicate the car’s likely trajectory.

The Abbey Road accident page has been updated.

I thought the newspaper report of an end of terrace house being worth £500,000 just as unbelievable as the speed estimate. My own on the same development is in estate agent’s terms better than that and I had no idea it was worth that much. Rachel bloody Reeves will be rubbing her sticky paws with glee.
