3 November - Golf Pods bad. Go Ape good
I generally try to file BiB emails at least once a month but sometimes the chore gets deferred. I have no recollection of commenting on this one from six weeks ago.
Will you be doing a piece on the anti Go Ape gaggle that cited many claims
around wild life disturbances, clay soil compaction and youths from out of area
cutting cats heads off compared to 21,000 people trampling the park to see a few tonnes of explosives launched in the air along with hundreds of tonnes of
machinery for the fair.
Certain Councillors appear to have no issues with the display but take issue with Go Ape.
The Go Ape protests seem to be very weird to me and that is not just because
their leaders showed themselves to be very unpleasant people. Councillors have
been rather divided. Reform UK activists who
successfully put paid to the
ludicrous Golf Pod idea were against Go Ape too but
their offer
to assist the gaggle people was rebuffed. If there was one, an official
Reform Bexley policy was not revealed.
Incidentally, Councillor Barry Saunders’ (Conservative, Falconwood & Welling)
comment about
feral youths decapitating cats was not something he made up for effect.
Whilst I will never be able to find it again, I recall a report of such activities
appearing on a local news site.
Whatever the case, the Ape Gaggle didn’t want anything to do with Reform. Their
loss. Their
GoFundMe for the gullible has stalled at little more than half the target
required for the threatened Judicial Review.
A more recent message offers thanks for the IP address report to be found at the
foot of every BiB page. Apparently it helped solve the reader’s technical
problem, I am not sure how. Perhaps this is the time to repeat that IP addresses
are not collected and only the reader sees his own address. It takes just one
short line of code.
