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.

13 February (Part 1) - Screwed over by the Left

Daily TelegraphBefore the 1983 General Election I won the office sweepstake with the nearest forecast of Mrs. Thatcher’s majority and went on to repeat the trick in 1987 when I was widely regarded as mad to bet that she would win with a a three digit majority. it turned out to be 102.

Since then my political predictions have been less than perfect but in 2024 I stuck my neck out by saying that if Starmer was elected he would be brought down by the left wing of his party in only eighteen months.

I was almost right. In nineteen months he has become a dead man walking by being so incompetent and apparently corrupt that he has had to appease his left wing in order to limp on for a few months.

Imagine an old Trotskyist brought down by colleagues so much further to the left. Off the scale levels of stupidity.

Rayner and Miliband pulling the strings; God help us!

Yesterday I bumped into an old acquaintance on a train and the conversation strayed into politics.

“I am 68 and I have been working for 51 years, never a day out of work and as I approach retirement I find this country is utterly fucked.” A young fellow, black, not that that matters, joined in and said we had been lucky. His life was on hold due to the cost of living crisis. He cannot buy a house or even have a holiday because Labour has screwed him over.

And now it is sure to get worse. In just the last day or two we have seen votes for 16 year olds brought forward to repay the left and the Minister for Women is proud to announce that she will ignore the Supreme Court’s ruling on women only spaces.

I do believe they are certifiably mad.
