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.

27 January - Broken Bexley

Daily Telegraph 26 January 2026A reader sent in a bit of news about the two months of unnecessary disruption to the Harrow Manorway flyover. He noted a year ago that an expansion joint created a hazard to cyclists and reported it anonymously to Bexley Council via FixMyStreet (reference 7095327) on 6th February 2025.

So not only did the Council unnecessarily withdraw both cycle tracks from use and leave the cones and repair debris in the the road for almost two months, they left the reported hazard in place for ten months beforehand.

Bexley Council, ‘Listening to you, Working for you’. Oh, sorry. That fatuous slogan has gone hasn’t it?

It would appear that TfL has noticed the dozens of road closures in Bexley caused by the dreadful rate doubling Thames Water. Everywhere, especially Sidcup, is a mess. I noticed yet another closure on the Southbound carriageway outside Queen Mary’s Hospital yesterday evening.

TfL will have given the incompetents another excuse to raise their bills.

I have no street stopcock and TW has pointblank refused to talk to me about it. I am going to ask them how they propose to cut me off if I don’t pay.
