• Folks, from someone who lives in the area, a word of caution about Lesniak. The guy is a nasty, nasty, individual with serious anger management issues. I could tell stories but they aren't for a public forum. The anti-CS9 thing now appears to be a personal crusade for him now so he is now funding a website, his PR person and various other activities to attack the scheme.

    He appears to be buddies with several local Conservatives who can spot some political opportunism when it presents itself by opposing CS9.

    One possible saving grace is the guy is such a dick that I hope he can't gather much of a bigger support base as few people can stand him or recognise that he is toxic.

    He has already had a whine about "personal attacks" and written a letter to the mayor, TfL, the Charities Commission, maybe the UN as well complaining about the LCC. He would just love anything that makes him appear as a victim against those evil cyclists. http://redesigncs9.com/hate-crime-verbal-abuse-anti-social-behaviour-trolling-spitting-the-perils-of-opposing-cs9-in-its-current-form/

    Generally speaking I think it would be best to ignore him, but one positive thing would be to support a local cafe http://shafran.co.uk @shafrandeli who, surprise, surprise, understands that you can attract customers by being nice, so they are offering 25% off for people coming by bike (plus 0.25p for a reusable cup).

    That is why Lesniak is such an idiot. If he was positive towards the scheme and people cycling, he would get much more business. As it is, I know many people who won't darken the door of his place, ever.

  • I have heard that he was a frothing wreck at the area forum during the consultation.
    He did himself no favours.
