The lack of democracy in inner cities UK that has been spreading under the Blairing regime now fronted by Gordon Brown, is causing local people to lose out to the touts of Big Business who control the so-called local councils. This became again evident in the behaviour of the formal full Council of the ‘Tower Hamlets’ borough council earlier this month. The Council failed to pass the motion against Crossrail hole/s attacks on the East End in whose name the controlling bureaucracy on that Council does make its career and enrich itself. The community continues to lose out. Another commentary and a different picture on the Khoodeelaar! demonstration against Crossrail hole/s-inviter Tower Hamlets Council, Tuesday 11 September 2007
Khoodeelaar! update on the CRASS figures for Crossrail – we expose the latest lies on costs that the peddlers of CrossRail are perpetrating – here soon
Khoodeelaar! review of the evening’s ‘main’ TV news bulletins concerning the Conservative party’s announcement of their official candidate for mayor of London -1
London Thursday 27 September 2007
In the two interviews/footage that have been broadcast on the ‘London Tonight’ sot at 1730 GMT ITV1 and on Channel 4 news at 1900 GMT, carrying info about Boris Johnson and his ‘pans’ for London, there have been mentions of the Boris Pan to scrap the Ken Bendy Buses and the expression of concerns that crime is thwarting life for ordinary people in London. There has been NO mention of CrossRail. And emphatically, no endorsement of Crossrail. It is understood that Johnson DID make a superficial reference to Crossrail. But that can only be to do with his Party line being imposed on him. We say that Johnson must break free fro the shackles of the Crossrail zealots in his Party and speak out about the real transport issues affecting London

More here shortly. CRASSrail hole plot-backer Livingstone betrays his ‘chums’ in the City of London - 1
The overblown promotional image of Crassrail hole plot-backer Ken Livingstone being ‘lauded’ by Gordon Brown has now been included in the 24 that have followed as part of the propaganda [=lying] package that Livingstone is promoting of himself as a Gordon Brown ally. This is al to do with Brown’s promotion for the Blaired regime to retain power after what may yet become a snap general election and Livingstone’s dire desperate need to get re-elected to destroy the remaining social and environmental fabrics of London at the scheduled May 2008 election for mayor of London. Livingstone has been taking up CRASSrail, even though he has had to stage an about turn in the attitude towards his recent Big Business colluders, the City of London interests. Contrary to Livingstone’s display of confidence [he has been talking up the issue of Crossrail funding and support by Gordon Brown now for the three months since Brown got into 10 Downing Street] and faked chumminess with Transport ministers, all is not well with the CURSED rail scheme and Livingstone would restrain himself from deranged bragging.. But he is an extremely fragile and insecure egotist who will not be modest so long as he can brag on at the expense of the public and can abuse the money that belongs to the people of London View a pro-Crossrail hole plot-backer , Degeneration web site publicising Livingstone’s boastful statements at the Blaired party Jamboree in Bournemouth on Wednesday 26 September 2007 that he was getting new powers from Gordon brown to compel the City of London to make financial contribution to the construction of CRASSrail. Livingstone also boasted that Ruth Kelly had come to within 2 percent of completing the funding package for the CRASSrail onslaught._[To be continued]
Khoodeelaar! tells ‘London mayor’ [Tory Party] candidate Boris Johnson how he can beat CROSSRAIL hole plotter Ken Livingstone
The Khoodeelaar! organiser Muhammad Haque posted one of the very first responses to the announcement this morning [Thursday 27 September 2007] that Boris Johnson was going to be the UK Conservative party’s candidate for the mayor of London at the election scheduled for May 2008:
From the web site of the London Daily Telegraph
” Your headline question “How can Boris Johnson win the London mayoral election?” can be answered by telling Boris Johnson again that he has got to stand up for democracy, for accountability in locally elected public bodies and he has to show that he is morally above the level of Ken Livingstone.
As far as the ‘big issues’ affecting London go, Boris Johnson has got to show, credibly and honestly and pragmatically that he knows the difference between a slogan and real action.
Let Boris say that he will back our call to scrap the flawed Crossrail scheme and intelligently opt for the use of the available public resource to finding a humane and environmentally sound and optimum solution to the transport needs of London.
That Boris is better than Livingstone in recognising London as the city of so many different rich nesses of backgrounds, languages and cultures and that he will serve the people as our civilised champion for a more tolerant and better accountable and democratic London.

The ‘East London Idiotiser’ [print edition, weekly, Thursday 27 September 2007] has taken almost 19 months before realising that it had at least one picture of the Khoodeelaar! Demonstration held outside the Tower Hamlets Council [on Wednesday 1 March 2006].
We expose the idiocies of the ‘local’ paper that has once again misjudged editorially and has given far more space to spurious, Idiotising items and plugs than to the serious the battle to defend the East End of London against Big Business and City of London interests . We show that the Idiotiser is continuing to publish falsehoods for Crossrail and suppressing the facts of what it knows about the string campaign going on against the Crossrail hole plan and also against the local, Tower Hamlets Council’s role in inviting the CrossRail hole problems against the East End of London.

Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole Bill campaign constitutional, legislative, legal and economic analysis on the Times website
The Khoodeelaar! Campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill has been the main source of the key analysis of the flawed Bill, known as the ‘Crossrail Bill’ currently in the UK House of Commons. The Khoodeelaar! Analysis has been, from the beginning of our campaign against Crossrail in January 2004, that the scheme is not economically sound. But the flaws are not confined just to the uneconomic character of the messed up project. As the Times has begun to recognise lately, it is at the centre of a funding row that in fact shows deeper flaws. Today [Thursday 27 September 2007] the Times has allowed as many as three writers to put together a single piece about the latest impasse over CRASSrail. What the Times has as yet not said, the Khoodeelaar! Organiser MUHAMMAD HAQUE has set out and the Times online has published the Khoodeelaar! analysis that is utterly central to understanding why this Crossrail scheme should be scrapped and a proper alternative project devised. View the latest Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole Bill campaign constitutional, legislative, legal and economic and social analysis exposing the defects and flaws of the Crossrail hole Bill, on the Times website [published on Thursday 27 September 2007]
Bournemouth banalities Wednesday 26 September 2007 - BBC lies with Ken Livingstone for CRASSrail hole plot

Action archive against Tower Hamlets Council’s Crossrail hole plot against the Brick Lane Whitechapel and Stepney London E1 Area: When ‘local MP’ George Galloway spoke out against the pretext of Crossrail station at Whitechapel
Khoodeelaar! put the spotlight of inquiry on the colluding Councillors on Tower Hamlets Council [14 February 2006]
Question from Muhammad Haque, Khoodeelaar! - The Brick Lane, Whitechapel and Stepney London E1 Area campaign against Crossrail hole Bill 2007 to the ‘full council’ of Tower Hamlets held on Tuesday 11 September 2007–
The following question was sent to Tower Hamlets Council as a DRAFT. Khoodeelaar! NEVER received a specific answer to this from the Tower Hamlets Council employee/s concerned who had requested the draft version to be sent to them._The draft question did contain the key evidential and factual components of the main demand from the community that the Tower Hamlets Council conducted itself in accordance with the known, the real, the reasonable, the legitimate and the duly expressed and the duly represented [by the Khoodeelaar! campaign and our supporters] requirements of the community vis a vis the CrossRail scheme promoters’ interests._The formally put ‘answer’ to the question, as included in the agenda package for the Council ‘full meeting’ on Tuesday 11 September 2007 did NOT answer ANY of the components of the question._The admission by the Tower Hamlets Council’s bureaucracy that it was CROSSRAIL that ultimately dictated the location of the Holes and other attacks on the community in the Borough of Tower Hamlets [in the context of the Khoodeelaar! question and the accompanying evidence of the campaign and the relevant representations, advice, questions and demands as put to and made available to the Tower Hamlets Council between 31 January 2004 and 11 September 2007] gave the game away._The Tower Hamlets Council exhibited and confirmed in that admission that the Council had been LYING to the community over the previous years in relation to the question of its [Tower Hamlets Council’s] pro-Crossrail hole-role as against the rights, demands and representations of the community in the East End of London._The Khoodeelaar! campaign has been INITIATING and pioneering – a number of new and sustained legal and constitutional and analytical ways and tools in the defence of the community against the stooge role-paying ‘local’ Tower Hamlets Council. We have noticed that the language, the analysis and some of the analogies and criteria [we have been devising and or updating] have already been followed [and are being followed] with some modifications by some other groups in the East End. [We shall examine some relevant ones in due course]_We have been reporting on the events that took pace on 11 September 2007 in relation to CrossRail hole role of the Tower Hamlets Council. We held a demonstration outside the Council building shortly before the ‘full council’ met and we had the following question formally presented to the formal session of the ‘full council’ and we observed the forma motion against CrossRail hole being moved at the ‘full council’ meeting by the Opposition group of councillors [RESPECT]. Those who spoke in support of the motion included the formal mover Fozol Miah and the Respect Group leader Abjol Miah and the Respect group councillor Lutfa Begum._In the course of the next parts, we shall deal with the full texts of the formal a reply to our Question and also examine the ‘political’ conduct, behaviour, tactic and tendencies of the other two ‘opposition’ groups, the ‘Conservatives’ and the ‘Lib Dems’ who united to undermine and or to mock the RESPECT groups’ motion against the Crossrail hole role being played by the controlling Blairist clique on the Council._A version of the Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole Bill Question to Tower Hamlets Council ‘full meeting’ Tuesday 11 September 2007_Given that the meeting held against the CrossRail hole bill and the plan and scheme included in the current ‘CrossRail Bill’ [in the HOUSE OF COMMONS] at the Brady centre in the Hanbury street London E1 on Sunday 22 January 2006 clearly and without dissent or departure or alteration agreed with and approved or and passed the motion put to it by Mr Muhammad Haque, the Khoodeelaar! campaign organiser, given that the contents of the motion as put and passed were conveyed in exact and express and clear form to Christine Gilbert the then holder of the post of chief executive in the council on Wednesday 25 January 2006 and given that the main thrust and the main demand by and from the community to the Tower Hamlets Council as expressed, seen, represented and denoted and connoted in that motion was that the same council should pass an unequivocal motion saying and meaning no to the CrossRail hole bill and given that the same meeting was also attended by a number of tower hamlets borough councillors including at least two who sat on the same council in the name of the area affected by the CrossRail hole directly, namely the brick lane part of the east end of London and given that all the references to the ‘CrossRail bill’ published by the same council since 22 January 2006 have been to the effect that the council was ‘mitigating the effects’ of the CrossRail hole to the local community and given that the Khoodeelaar! campaign against CrossRail hole attacks has written and published daily critical examinations of all the relevant assertions and postures of the same Tower Hamlets Council since 22 January 2006, why has the Tower Hamlets Council not passed the motion that the community demanded be passed and the motion that the community wants the council to pass? what specific evidential, constitutional, legal and lawful record/s is/are there – whether kept in one unit in the lb Tower Hamlets Council or in more than one or whether in the ‘town hall’ or elsewhere – and as created by or under the auspices of the entity of the lb Tower Hamlets Council to truthfully, independently verifiably deal with each of the 800 separate questions that Khoodeelaar! has put to the Tower Hamlets Council about the matter since 31 January 2004?

The FT admits it at last!!: The City of London IS trying to rob the UK public to enable Big Business to pocket £Billions under covers of constructing Crossrail, as Khoodeelaar! has been saying now for almost 4 years!
What ‘activists’ is Michael Snyder ‘thinking’ of when he writes in the FT outfit, published at 1930 Hrs GMT today [Sunday 23 September 2007], ‘urging’ or rather lecturing the ‘activists’ to act a stouts for the City of London to the rest of the population?View the latest sample of the FT [‘Financial Times’] affording yet another platform to the Crossrail hole plotter from the City of Lon don Michael Snyder to perpetrate YET another LIE for CRASSrail. Snyder is disingenuous and dishonest. He has said this before – that whenever he talks to the US banks chiefs, they ask [‘unprompted’ says the snide one] when will Crossrail be built in London! The answer must be: why doesn’t Snide Michael tell them that there is no demand in the London public for CRASSrail. That there is no economic justification for putting £Billions of public money into constructing a transport line that does Not address the optimum transport needs. Why doesn’t Snide Snyder say that in London the existing public infrastructure is in bad need of maintenance and refurbishment and repair which if carried out would more than meet the actual transport capacity needs as well as providing for the needs of any peripheral, banking chiefs’ [’public’] transport needs that the CrossRail pluggers say Crossrail will provide… [To be continued]
COMING here shortly the following original comments and items, concentrating on the deliberate creation of poverty and Degeneration in the UK inner cities under the Gordon Brown-fronted administration. We show why ‘Undone mayor’ Ken Livingstone has been a courier of social calamities being stoked up and piled up in inner city London and why the corruption that has been allowed to take hold on the Tower Hamlets Council is destroying the crucial fabrics of the community in the East End. We expose the litany of lies that the Blaired clique has been telling against ordinary people in the East End. We link al those together and show that the Crossrail hole attacks on the East End are part and parcel of the plan to physically destroy the East End…. We show how it is not possible to ‘benefit’ people who are the very targets of the destruction… And how they never intended to benefit the people they are embarked on to dislocate, destabilise and destroy…. The three words that Khoodeelaar! Has used from the word go: since 31 January 2004….
Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole Bill, No to Crossrail hole-inviter Tower Hamlets Council
The KHOODEELAAR! Campaign has been advocating the defence of the East End community on top of opposing the CrossRail hole attacks. The implications and the reaches of our campaign will be set out and updated starting on Monday 24 September 2007. We shall set out the context of the Gordon Brown speech scheduled to be delivered at Bournemouth that is being widely touted to include de facto endorsement of the attacks by CrossRail against the East End of London._More shortly
Continuing the reports on the Khoodeelaar! Actions on Tuesday 11 September 2007 against Tower Hamlets Council’s CrossRail hole/s-inviting role. We have already published on the internet our exclusive and comprehensive series of reports covering the relevant aspects of the activities, starting on 12 September 2007. The Khoodeelaar! No to CrossRail hole actions on Tuesday 11 September 2007 included our latest demonstration outside the Tower Hamlets Council. We also had a formal question on the Council’s ‘full council’ meeting agenda of business on that day. The reports of that question have been already published. Other aspects of that encounter in the ‘Tower Hamlets Council chamber’ [in the ‘Mulberry Place’, near the Blackwall tunnel, in London E14] will be published shortly.
We also observed on Tuesday 11 September 2007 the behaviour of the controlling clique on the Council being aided by the ‘Opposition’ grouplets Lib Dems [6 councillors] and the Tories [7 councillors] in backing the Crossrail plan against the Community. What one opposition councillor [Lib Dems, group ‘leader’] backing CrossRail did say about the ‘disabled’, we shall deal with in context separately. Then we observed the behaviour of the three ‘councillors’ ‘for’ ‘Bethnal Green South’ ward stay silent when the ‘RESPECT” group’s [11 councillors] motion against CrossRail hole attacks was being formally ‘debated’._[To be continued]
What has the ‘deputy’ leader on Tower Hamlets Crossrail-hole-plot-backing Council been telling the people who are the targets of one of the Crossrail holes?
The people we are here referring to are the ones who live in the Castlemain Street, Lomas Street, Trahorn Close and Wodeham gardens, to the east of the Vallance Road and to the north of Durward Street [off Brady Street, which is off Whitechapel Road]. What has his co-councillor for the same [Tower Hamlets Council] Ward, ‘Bethnal Green South’ been saying and doing about the Crossrail hole attacks planned against ‘his ward constituents’? Which ones of them decided to leave the Council chamber [in Mulberry Pace’ on Tuesday 11 September 2007 just when I was about to put my formal Question to the ‘full Council’ about why the controlling clique had failed and refused to pass the No to CrossRail hole Motion that the community had demanded it pass? – And other reports, Here, shortly
Muhammad Haque commentary on the ‘war’ on George Galloway, the MP for Bethnal Green and Bow -1
This edition includes an Exclusive report on the latest row between George Galloway and his ‘RESPECT’ ‘party’ colleagues that took place on Saturday 22 September 2007
1150 Hrs GMT London Sunday 23 September 2007
Last Friday’s edition of the BBC2 programme ‘NEWSNIGHT’ promoted the voters-rejected candidate Oona King as if she had just come back from climbing Mount Everest! As had the Andrew Neill-fronted ‘THIS WEEK’ slot the previous night shown on BBC1. There is such an acceptance of this token of ‘multiple ethnicities and affiliations’ being flaunted on all the mainstream media channels that the ordinary people face a serious risk of being almost told that defeat at an election in Britain no longer means that. That backing the violent occupation of Iraq is an achievement that is worthy of being recognised by the token being given the promotion that Oona King has been being given._The mainstream news outlets and their agenda-setters have yet to digest the particular row that occurred yesterday [Saturday 22 September 2007] between George Galloway the current MP for Bethnal Green and Bow and some members of the ‘Respect’ organisation._I did not observe the event._But I understand that George Galloway either threatened or is about to make public the threat to leave the organisation. Or to split off from them._The question is: will NEWSNIGHT then interview Oona King again about that?_The answer is: they probably will. If not immediately but on a date not long after. And if it will not be NEWSNIGHT, Oona will be offered the choice of any of the other dozens of media platforms in the mainstream._She does not have to show evidence of independent ETHICAL intelligence or integrity or dignity. All she has to do is to remain in the popular imagination fed by constant media and subliminal brainwashing as the Blair Babe who ‘lost’ to George Galloway! The truth is that she was rejected by the constituency because she was no good at telling the truth on the key issues that mattered to the constituency._There may yet be a series of books in what she was ousted about. Those books, yet to be published, may outsell anything Oona has been propped up to do with her post facto ‘diaries’._Oona can be any prime minister’s ‘babe’ in pursuit of her career at being ‘in the limelight’ on the reflected assumption that she was ‘an MP’ which in truth followed from her being foisted in 1997 upon the constituency as a result of a series of previous internal crimes and corruption within what became the Blaired party in Tower Hamlets!_So what was the big row between Galloway and his ‘Respect’ organisation colleagues about?_It was about Galloway’s criticisms of certain of their members. But they did not say that. Not in so many words. What they did instead was to say things about Galloway that they had not said for at least 20 months._Things that the Khoodeelaar! Campaign has been referring to._Things like what do THEY do to show that they have been in solidarity with the community?_Who created the mess over the theft and loss of UK Bangladeshis’ money stolen via ‘First Solution’?_Who gave credibility to the Blaired Party operatives that had infiltrated ‘RESPECT’ and even became candidates in some places as ‘RESPECT’ ones at the last local Council elections?_Who would have voted for THEIR candidate in Shadwell had THEY succeeded?_Who are THEY? They are the very ones that have not been giving any publicity to any stance – if they have any stance- to some of the most urgent issues and causes in the local community in Tower Hamlets. THEY are the ones who have given misleading accounts of what is happening in the local community to George Galloway. They say that they are not happy with the Galloway appearance on the Channel 4 Big Brother show in January 2006. But they are rewriting history. They did not acknowledge the work that Khoodeelaar! Has done to RESTORE all their credibility because none of them had the moral courage to come out and make public one single thing that they could say about that. The only thing they did say – and long after the Blairing propaganda onslaught had died down, was so muted and so inconsequential that it does not warrant repetition. Khoodeelaar! Has made clear all along that as the local MP for the Bethnal Green and Bow area, Galloway deserved to be given the information about what the community needed and wanted. We have given more than 300 communications intending them to be drawn to Galloway’s attention. We have not seen those acknowledged. Who hid them? Who suppressed those? What did the ‘RESPECT’ ‘party’ organisation do with those?_Who was it that decided to shore up some of the most discredited and corrupt individuals associated with the Blair outfits in Tower Hamlets and give those positive platforms and space via the ‘RESPECT’ organisation?_Who decided to not oppose CrossRail?_Who told Galloway to stop talking against Crossrail?_Galloway gave his own presentation or representation of his petition formally before the ‘select committee’ in June 2006. Where were the ‘RESPECT’ organisation then?_Galloway was accompanied by only one member of his staff [who might or might not be one of the RESPECT central organisation then]._ALL the others present in the Committee room were Khoodeelaar! Campaigners against Crossrail or other petitioners against Crossrail and a local councillor [for part of the time]._Why have none of the ‘central’ ‘RESPECT’ members [other than the named councillors whom we have named already] been present at the Khoodeelaar! Demonstrators against Crossrail since April 2006?_Why have they not mentioned the campaign against Crossrail in any of the 200 or so particular ‘letters’ that they sent to the ‘local’ East London Idiotiser?_The only ones that have ever been present have had to be repeatedly invited to attend._So when Galloway made dozens of statements against Crossrail during the months of February, March and April 2006 [up to at least 9 April 2006], did he do so in the knowledge that the ‘RESPECT” ‘party’ members who are now poised to give Oona King the pleasure of being given some ‘real facts’ to celebrate about helping to sink Galloway, were not in agreement with him on that?_Did they therefore pretend to be against CrossRail when all the while they were in agreement with Ken Livingstone and wanted the £Billions to be made available to Big Business?_They have NOT followed as supporters ANY local campaigns organised and maintained by ordinary members of the community against the Blairing corrupt Tower Hamlets council._Is that because they think that they know better than the local community?_There are MORE things that THEY have in common wit the BLAIRED Party clique now in control of Tower Hamlets Council and of the party positions beyond than would appear from some of the slogans._THAT is why the ‘RESPECT’ organisation will not survive any dramatic split that may yet take place between George Galloway whilst he is still an MP and the rest of the outfit that he helped to create and publicise._[To be continued]
Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail has been studying the widest possible range of Crassness associated with the pluggers of CrossRail now for almost 4 years. It is the evidence of the facts of the Crassness that we have called the project CRASS. We have also called it flawed. Fundamentally flawed. As we are pointing out round the clock, the crassness does not abate. The nearer they come to clinching a deal for Big Busies to loot the UK public of £Billions the crasser hey get. And so we share this latest find with all our visitors and observers.
View one sample of CRASSrail pluggers’ idiocy we captured at exactly 0140 Hrs GMT today,. Sunday 23 September 2007_At the ‘full Council’ meeting of the East End of London borough of Tower Hamlets held on Tuesday 11 September 2007, the Khoodeelaar! movement extracted an astonishing confession by the controlling clique on the Council. The confession was that it, the Council, had been subservient ton the un-named forces that were promoting the CRASSrail hole attacks against the East End of London. The confession was couched in language that only the core of the secret CrossRail hole-plotters could devise. It gave paramount place to ‘CrossRail’._It did not refer to any right of the local people that have been targeted for attacks by CrossRail.
It said as follows_“ Ultimately, Council must respect Crossrail’s overarching duty to have regard to the paramount importance of the health and safety of Crossrail passengers and workers which will dictate the location of such shafts.” View here the first report as published on Indymedia UK by AADHIKAROnline in the early hours of Wednesday 12 September 2007 about that disgraceful betrayal of the East End by Tower Hamlets Council controlling clique of Big Business Blairists that is colluding with Crossrail hole attacks on the East End_The word ‘overreaching’ should be substituted with ‘overarching’ when reading the post on Indymedia by-lined to Muhammad Haque and dated 12 September 2007_[To be continued]
The Khoodeelaar! Campaign in defence of the East End of London and against the Crossrail hole attacks on the area has not been confined to just talking about the specific roles played by the formally identified promoters of the Crossrail hole Bill [the ‘hybrid’ ‘Crossrail Bill’ in the UK House of Commons]. It has entailed the studying and the monitoring of the widest possible range of behaviour and decision-making by the controlling clique on the ‘locally elected’ Tower Hamlets Council. Only by doing this as the Khoodeelaar! Movement established the evidence of the wide spread of corruption, and betrayal of the local community that has been being carried out by the controlling clique on the Council. That Council’s collusion with the CrossRail hole attacks plan is in keeping with the Council’s collusion with all the external agencies and interests that are orchestrated against the ordinary people in the East End. These ordinary people are not being represented effectively by the controlling clique. The controlling clique is letting the people of the East End down. Making way for Big Business and their colluders View the Muhammad Haque comment as published on the personnel today website about the dishonesty of the controlling clique on Tower Hamlets Council

No to East London Council role in Crossrail hole [the ‘Crossrail Bill’ now in the UK House of Commons]: Demonstration organised by the KHOODEELAAR campaign against CrossRail was held against Tower Hamlets Council on Tuesday 11 September 2007.

Muhammad Haque daily economic commentary_1210 Hrs GMT London Saturday 22 September 2007
CROSSRAIL London is a spin-rail project. It is not a transport plan. It is a propaganda plan being abused and misused by self-seekers to hold it up as a tool to deceive people at elections, London mayor election. It must be scrapped and a real transport plan put in its place. London deserves BETTER than a crassly conceived mess of a package that is deadlocked because it lacks merit… Crossrail is not the name of a picnic to be indulged in.. Transport needs of London and the transport needs of the other UK regions should be addressed with maturity, honesty and practicality. CrossRail is none of these things and needs replacing. NOW!.
Crossrail Deadlock is not going to be over only because the Blaired party jamboree next week will be presented with a Livingstone-confected ‘triumph’ ‘package’. There is more incompatibility, more unaffordability in the ‘Crossrail Bi’ than mere question of how much Big Business is being asked to put into its contraption. The Crossrail conundrum will last forever. The only way to end it is to scrap the plan as it is and to start afresh. And the ‘freshness’ will only be substantiated if the transport needs of London and the transport needs of the rest of the UK are included in the thinking behind the next transport plan/s at in an integrated way and the economy of each of the regions is considered on the evidence of present performance and the future prospects. This has got to be done rationally, honestly and realistically. And by including the possibility of a much worse and much more serious collapse of capitalistic contraptions than has been witnessed in the collapse of the ‘Northern Rock’ and before that the ‘mortgages-linked financial unravelling of the USA capitalistic market contraptions. The existing London transport infrastructure is in need of serious and comprehensive overhaul. Mature, intelligent and honestly devised and implemented overhaul. As opposed to spin and propaganda-generating overhaul. This is also an opportunity to make it environmentally sound and sustainable. That is more important than the slogan-linked, flag-waving, mayoral-election-linked or a ‘snap-election-linked’ capacity of a stunt rail. Crossrail has become a Stunt-rail, a spin-rail project. Scrap it, make the project real by drafting a real plan by scrapping the current Bill and plan - [To be continued]_Khoodeelaar!

The London Financial Times is a lying paper too. Notwithstanding the image it is lent by the BBC peddling the British press to the rest of the world, the UK financial daily, sometimes also referred to as the pink paper is as ignorant and as dishonest as the Guardian. Today the Financial Times says that CrossRail is a £10 billion project. And the Guardian’s ever-unreliable ‘journalism’ ‘reports’, also today [Friday 21 September 2007] that Crossrail is a £16 Billion project! This is the real gap. The real funding gap. The gap of integrity. The gap of absence of any accuracy. And so it has been,. Throughout the past five years of feverish lobbying for CRASSrail, these over-hyped ‘quality British’ newspapers have perpetrated lies after packs of lies in peddling the Big Business CrossRail project. And they are doing it even on the day when they are allegedly reporting what the current UK transport minister, Ruth Kelly, said at a pro-CRASSrail private meeting on Thursday [20 September 2007] she wanted [Big] Business to do about funding the CRASSrail plot…. And all the peddlers give yet another mention to Michael SNIDE Snyder from the strange policy outfit at the City of London Corruption [oops! ‘Corporation’]. Even the snide one is alleged to have been traumatised[!!!!!!] by the alleged absence of a figure that Ruth Kelly said Big Business should put into the construction of the CRASSrail! That allusion to Snyder’s ‘distress’ is a fakery. The Snide one has been one of the Crossrail’s most noisy trumpeters. Along with Jo ‘Boringness’ Valentine of “London Farts [!!!] . Between the two of them they have grabbed the maximum space whenever the ‘London needs Crossrail’ slogan has been mouthed, repeated and retailed in the ‘mainstream’ media generally and the EVENING STANDARD, the unprincipled, unethical, corrupting ‘local paper’ in the name of London. in particular. These two [Snyder and Valentine] have peddled the highest number of CRASSrail lies as a pair only after the chief tout for CRASSrail, ‘Undone mayor’ Ken Livingstone. They have confected, they have lied, they have fabricated the figures and they have said that the cost was now around £10 Billion…_So it is another item of evidence of their dishonesty and immorality to note that BOTH Jo Valentine and Michael Snyder are reported today [Friday 21 September 2007] to be uncertain about the sum that Gordon Brown is demanding the Big Business put into the CRASSrail! How very incredible! Only yesterday, the CRASSrail pack let loose by Big Business to soften the public so the big loot could be staged at the expense of the UK public was braying that there was no problem at al. In fact, the fanatical EVENING STANDARD a few days ago reported the chief Crossrail hole plotter Ken Livingstone as saying that all was wonderful at the then latest meeting he had with Ruth Kelly et al about Crossrail!_In less than a week after that boast, the touts are sounding stinkingly sour! Why? Because they do not want to put the their money where their greedy plans are!_This will be their pattern throughout the remainder of the mess that is Crossrail_They will say and do exactly the same about destabilising, socially excusing, devastating and environmentally ruining and then taking over vital parts of the East End of London under cover of Crossrail._[To be continued]
KHOODEELAAR! Told you so! [2]_The BBC has been caught lying again. And even the Daily Mail is at it. Again! Never had the Daily Mail been able to admit to media lies like it does so freely on its front page today [Friday 21 September 2007] “Blue Peter editor sacked and TV bosses forced to say sorry again. NEW LIES FIASCO SHAMES THE BBC’ in a piece by-lined to the Daily Mail’s ‘TV correspondent’ [Paul Revoir’] – What a double, treble, terrible media whammy! They all tell lies. By fakery. Fabrication. Distortion. By invention. By fantasy and by suppression. Just as they had been utterly lying FOR Big Business Crossrail, until just a few weeks ago. They only relented a bit when they saw that Gordon Brown could not afford to let Livingstone deliver his election propaganda stunt to suit Big business… But even so, they are prevaricating. As does the Guardian outlet today. We shall discuss the Guardian’s lying tactics in a later edition during Friday 21 September 2007_On to other UK titles [news publications] and their tactics of lies and lying for Crossrail._This morning, some of the UK’s most fanatical perpetrators of the Crossrail plot propaganda – who have never admitted the plot to be one devised to enable Big Business to rob and loot the public purse, have been slowly but surely admitting that it has been. Their admission is not spontaneous. Bit forced. Forced by the financial crisis that Big Business keeps causing by greed._As we have been saying for 44 months, CrossRail is a Big Business, and a City of London project. It is NOT a public transport system like any ordinary ones. It is about linking Big Business points together. And on the way, as a justifier for looting the public purse, they have added some decorations so that they can make their looting plan look plausible as another ‘public transport’ project. This is why even Rod Eddington [who HAD to admit the evidence and give up his affiliations with Big Business doing his ’study’ on the UK Transport after being commissioned by then UK Finance Minister Gordon Brown to do so, did NOT endorse Crossrail._Eddington could NOT endorse Crossrail. The evidence did not warrant it. That is why the Crossrail hole plot-backing Guardian condemned Eddington on the day that his report was due to be published. That is why the Crossrail hole-plot-backer BBC liar [operating via ‘BBC London’ and posing as the ‘transport’ reporter] Andrew Whine Stone Lie said on the day of the publication of the Eddington report that Eddington HAD endorsed Crassrail. This was a crafty conniving lie. This was based on a leading question that Andrew Whine Stone Lie put to Eddington at the launch press conference and it has NOT been repeated since. [More on Andrew Whine Stone Lie’s suppression of the truth and his internal battles within the BBC to deny the existence of the Khoodeelaar!

CITY CHALLENGED TO BRIDGE FUNDING GAP FOR CROSSRAIL
Transport secretary Ruth Kelly said on Thursday that ministers expect to see “very substantial contributions” from City businesses towards the cost of building Crossrail, which would link Canary Wharf and Heathrow._Speaking in an interview with the Evening Standard, Kelly said: “We are expecting some clear beneficiaries of the project to contribute. I want the private sector to turn its words into real contributions.”_The City’s policy and resources committee chairman, Michael Snyder, said that it would prove difficult to solve the problem without knowing how much extra funding was required, adding, however, that:_“Even on this impossibly tight time scale, we will do all we can.”

For as long, Ken Livingstone has claimed that Crossrail was perfect. In that tie, Khoodeelaar! has showed the key faults in the project in the context of the Lon don transport needs. One such has been the comparative economic role of Crossrail in relation to the existing transport infrastructure. We have said that the existing infrastructure deserves priority treatment when the use of public money was involved. We said that the existing underground and allied railway networks that needed maintenance and improvement would far better address the transport needs than any Crossrail line would. For years, we have been met with silence from the Crossrail pluggers. We have shown also that the Heathrow-link of CrossRail has been a serious piece of contradiction and we have detailed the extent of that contradiction. Nobody else has said that…Now, only days before the Lyingstill Livingstone is set to stage another of his lying publicity freak shows [just as he was party to doing from Singapore when the corruptly procured Olympics 2012 bid was ‘successfully’ promoted by Livingstone featuring himself as the main achiever….] at the Blaired Party jamboree 2007 [that is what it has been for years now, the event that had almost merited being called the ‘Labour Party annual conference. Centuries ago!!!!!], there are signs that even within the Big Business ‘sector’ serious doubts have existed about Livingstone’s grasp of the issues and his failure to tell the truth about his failing grip on things
The Muhammad Haque daily economic and ethical commentary_1155 Hrs GMT London Thursday 20 September 2007_What is wrong with Susan Kramer? In addition to her being immersed in a state of liberal confusion about society and where things need to be changed, that is? Susan Kramer became additionally confused when she was in the proximity of the spin of the liar of London. Hence her inability to see all of London . She mistakes London and substitutes the package of lies spun by Livingstone as London. She hears no reason. She finds no reason. She cannot appreciate any reason if it comes from any source other than the Lyingstill Livingstone. Hence her failure to see that Crossrail is CRASS. That it is Not the answer to the pressing transport problems of London. And the other thing that is wrong with Susan Kramer is that contradictory to her pretensions, she is ignorant about macro economics. She has effectively bought the liar’s slogan that London funds the rest of the UK economy! That gigantic lie will cost the people unless Gordon Brown exposes it for the mega ‘Londonist’ lie that it is. There is a word. Londonist. It is intended in my use here to be a negative term to denote those who lie and exaggerate the importance of London at the expose of people in other parts of the UK. Gordon Brown is now preparing his keynote party speech package. And I would suggest that he comprehensively repudiates those who say that London finance is keeping the rest of the UK. And the same goes for Alistair Darling. And a footnote. Darling has the duty to renounce his Crossrail Bill and to say that he got that wrong.

Muhammad Haque daily world linguistic commentary_1625 Hrs GMT London Tuesday 18 September 2007
When I said ‘Get Cross with Crossrail’ at the end of one of the very first meetings of the movement that soon afterwards became known as Khoodeelaar! even I didn’t think that my phraseology would get such wider currency. As has happened quite a few times in the past 18 months with external publishers and commentators appearing with their views on the project under the headline ‘Cross with CrossRail’. This has happened once again, today [Tuesday 18 September 2007]. My first campaign poem was published on the internet on 31 January 2004 under the heading, “Getting Cross with Crossrail’.It has taken almost 4 years for the ‘mainstream’ ‘transport economics’ commentators to catch up! But to find that the Manchester Evening News, the Mancunian mainstay of the Crossrail-hole-plot-backing Guardian is the one that has used my phrase albeit with a question mark, completes the journey as far as the linguistic puzzle that had persisted up to now as proffered by the pluggers of the flawed project. My commentary today deals in this part with the general trend noticeable now among the pluggers of confessing that the Crossrail scheme is CRASS. After all…._[To be continued]

Khoodeelaar! On the Record warning Gordon Brown against the Crossrail hole scheme waste of public money and of resources.
Gordon Brown is being misled by Ken Livingstone into making a serious financial error. Today the Murdoch-owned London Sunday Times announces the ‘news’ that Gordon Brown is set to give the CRASSrail the go-ahead. What this means is that Brown is committing huge sums of money from the public purse to back the Big Business Crossrail hole plot._This is a plot that has been touted for Big Business by the ‘Undone mayor’ Ken Lyingstill Livingstone. We have repeatedly warned Brown against Crossrail hole commitment. The decision Brown has evidently taken to back CrossRail is not economically sustainable. It is a political decision which will come back to haunt Gordon Brown. Ken Livingstone may not be even mayor to be haunted by it. The present CrossRail scheme will lumber passengers and the public with debts and liabilities that are not justified. Livingstone is making an increasingly desperate bid to use Gordon Brown’s apparent agreement to make this huge sum of public money available for the present CRASSrail hole line as his [Livingstone] next election propaganda to get elected [for the third time in a row since the wasteful post of mayor for London was created by Blair] to claim that he did this ‘for transport in London’. This claim by Livingstone has been a lie and is a lie._As even the Sunday Times and the Times have now acknowledged. Albeit belatedly. Crossrail is flawed seriously in a way that will not deliver the transport ‘solutions’ that its touts have been promising. It will also take vital public money away from being put into improving the far bigger and the existing London underground and related railway network._Khoodeelaar! has been saying this for 44 months now. What we have been saying has only just now begun to be acknowledged._In bits._The start has been made belated in the Times newspaper group. We recognise this late acknowledgement and recognition. And we are now going to publish a the other flaws of CrossRail that the Times newspaper group has not yet acknowledged. Or seen. Or noticed. We shall also at the same time, detail the attacks that we have been focussing on for the past 44 months as far as the CrossRail Holes in the East End of London have been concerned._And in this series, we shall be updating our comments, our analyses and our findings of the past 44 months.

The fanatically misleading London evening paper the EVENING [no standards of ethics or morality ]STANDARD has been lying for years for Crossrail. The number of Crossrail-peddling lying plugs the EVENING STANDARD has pushed, can be compared only with the matching lies uttered by the Crossrail hole plotter tout Ken Livingstone. So, as we pointed out yesterday, Lyngstill’s promotion of CRASS rail has not been received with welcome in the mainstream media._Indeed, there has been no report, as far as we could find, recording the boasts made by Lyingstill Livingstone and sneaked out via the BBC by Andrew Whine-Stone-Liar m of Livingstone’s boastful, conspiratorially packaged and delivered claims, made at the perennially embarrassing waster of London people’s money the Greater London Assembly earlier this week. What has happened, as we accurately observed ion Thursday [13 September 2007] is that the truth of the CRASS Rail’s fundamental flaws had hit even Gordon Brown’s camp. Notwithstanding Brown’s apparent readiness to accept the embrace by the snaring Ken Livingstone, there has been real pressure from the ongoing financial ‘market’ collapse and so there is serious hesitation in the formally installed office of the Finance Minister of UK, Alistair Darling._[More about HIS role in this CRASSrail, at another time, here]_Just as the Times today confessed that Crossrail is not quite the solution to the transport needs of London that the CRASSrail pluggers have been peddling it to be_As if that were not bad enough for the liar and the corrupter of London, the forever Crossrail-promoting EVENING STANDARD has devoted its main first editions Editorial to a retreat on the CRASSrail hole plot. They say, amongst other things, that ”even as hopes are raised for Crossrail, it has been intimated that this would be at the expense of further support for the modernization of the Tube network. This is absurd: both are necessary”._Then the idiotic EVENING STANDARD goes on to repeat some of the familiar lies for CrossRail that it had published over the previous years._The idiots who have been confecting most of the CRASSrail – plugging pieces as carried THE EVENING STANDARD are ignorant of the fact that people in the East End can see the idiocy. This is why there were more people taking active part in the latest Khoodeelaar! Demonstration against the CRASSrail hole-inviting Tower Hamlets Council on Tuesday [11 September 2007] than would have been the case if any of the demonstrating residents and tenants in or at the properties and streets affected by the CRASSrail hole plot thought that the line was needed by the people in the East End.
[To be continued]_One of the original findings of the exclusive investigation into the conduct – or, more accurately, the Misconduct of the controlling clique on Tower Hamlets Council has been the fact that it is a very low calibre outfit. That the Council is not being ‘led’ by intelligence. In the sense of the word ‘intelligence’ meaning the high standard of ability of thought and consideration. What we have been encountering in the behaviour – misbehaviour – of the clique is that it is devoid also of that level of common sense which ought to be there if the powers available to a locally ‘elected’ council are to be exercised to the good of the local people. What we have uncovered and exposed over the Crossrail hole-inviting role of that clique is crassness, a stupidity that would not be tolerated if there were accountability, if there were scrutiny. As there is neither scrutiny nor accountability, the corrupt clique is getting away with the letting down of the people in the Borough. No, letting down is not the word,. Betrayal is a more appropriate word. But even that one is not enough. The corrupt clique that has been in control f the Tower Hamlets Council is likely to be found on an independent examination of the evidence of its misconduct, to have been part of an external attack operation against the East End. As we have been calling them a tout Council, the evidence of their misconduct will vindicate that tag and that analysis._[To be continued]_What is more, the persistent absence of a thinking and moray sound and combined ‘opposition’ is not helping the cause of the people in the Borough. [To be continued]_Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole plot-inviting Tower Hamlets Council – AADHIKAR online is continuing the reports on the admission by the Council that it had been LYING all along about the role it had been paying to bring into the East End the Crossrail hole attacks._AADHIKARonline has already published the quotation from the Crossrail hole-inviting clique on Tower Hamlets Council saying that “Ultimately, the Council must respect Crossrail’s overarching duty to have regard to the paramount importance of the health and safety of Crossrail passengers and workers which will dictate the location of such shafts”_CRASSRAIL exposed again!_Even as the increasingly economically misdirected agenda of the one-time ‘prudent’ Gordon Brown slides down to reach the abyss of embarrassment by Gordon Brown’s embrace of the sinister ploys of the ego-centric Ken Livingstone who has been the main tout for Big Business Crossrail hole plot, the pitfalls and the wastefulness of CrossRail are being acknowledged by some of the most unlikely of quarters and sources - including, in a bizarrely twisted way, by some within Livingstone’s own empire for abuse of transport in the name of the people of London , Transport for London!. The Khoodeelaar! Movement has been monitoring and auditing these events. So that there is no claim after the disaster hits everyone, that ‘we were not warned’. So here is another timely and exclusive contribution by the Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole plot campaign._Even The London Times [owned by Rupert Murdoch] has been confronted with irresistible evidence, which they have to recognise, confirming what Khoodeelaar! Analyses of Crossrail have consistently shown. In the latest report published by the Times today [Friday 14 September 2007] they have outlined some of the very things that the Khoodeelaar! Campaign against the Crossrail hole project has found in the very detailed analysis of the other studies on the subject, including the ‘Eddington Transport study - the case for action’. In a comment to the Times web site, Khoodeelaar! No to CrossRail hole Bill campaign organiser Muhammad Haque has said this morning that the Time’s “identification of the problems that Crossrail will cause represents a broader view of the problems than the promoters of the current plan will claim. It is time to go back to the drawing boards and come up with the plan that will be economically and environmentally sustainable. A great deal of public money has already been wasted in the bureaucracy of the Crossrail Company. They have not produced the optimum solution to the transport needs of London. The reason why they have not done so includes the sabotage of the parliamentary scrutiny of the Crossrail Bill. In terms of the devastating effects the Crossrail hole plan will cause to the East End of London, the social deficits will far outweigh any promised economic benefits for these parts. With the world of finance behaving in the unpredictable way that it is bound to do, the promoters’ big claim for Crossrail being vital to make London a world class financial centre will most likely be another wasteful and diversionary exaggeration. Scrap the Crossrail Bill now. Use sustainable economic solution to the transport needs of London.”View the Times piece HERE:”£16bn Crossrail go-ahead threatens to shunt Tube upgrade into sidings”

From the previous editions of AADHIKARonline_Ken Crossrail hole plot-backer Livingstone has boasted that he has got Gordon Brown to give in. Lyingstill has been letting on that Brown has no alternative but to commit public funds to the ‘building’ of CRASSrail. Lyingstill has been boasting of his alleged victory in getting Ruth Kelly, the present holder of the post of Secretary of State [Transport Minster] ‘for’ Transport in the Gordon Brown administration. So, with both Gordon Brown and Ruth Kelly already Konned by Ken the CrossRail hole plotter into ‘recognising the vital importance of Crossrail’, what is the hush?

The first answer is that nobody at the UK Treasury has been prepared to confirm what Lyingstill Livingstone and Whine-Stone-Lie have put about. Even Ruth Kelly, - sacked from her previous jobs under Blair due to widespread disquiet at her lack of grip on the subject that her post was supposedly responsible for – has not become available to back up what the Lyingstill and the Whine-stone-Lie have claimed._The other part of the answer must be something to do with the fact that there is no evidence at all that the commitment of so much public money to CRASSrail in London is going to produce the returns that could remotely justify the damage that will be caused to the economy by the pluggers of Crossrail.._That is why the sneaky, hush-hush manner and atmosphere by the liars.. These two are touting for Big Business. But Big Business is not well. It is again sick, after being exposed once again as having been involved in the theft and looting on a huge scale around the USA-located mortgage scandal. Which is having significant repercussions on the rest of the fiscal policy decision-makers across the Big Business –dominated parts of the world. Just as the continuing imperialistic robberies in the name of ‘wars’ [theft of oil and other natural resources from Asia on the grandest scale at the moment] …._[To be continued]
What ‘mainstream’ media outlet in the UK has published the most ‘articles’ promoting Crossrail hole plot? The answer is of course the London EVENING Standard. Why? There is no reason that the paper has published except that it is part of what the Big Business wants. And the Evening standardsless Standard is the one that has symbolically gone silent on key occasions as well. When reason, logic and ethics would warrant a treatment by the ‘EVENING STANDARD’ of the key aspects of the transport needs of London, it has been silent on those occasions._[To be continued]_Khoodeelaar! No to Tower Hamlets Council corruptly publishing claims about its role on Crossrail - the next part of the Khoodeelaar! reports on the ‘full Council’ meeting held on Tuesday 11 September 2007_Does the ‘East London Idiotiser’ have an agenda to replace the corrupt clique on the Tower Hamlets Council? We have no written statement saying that this is the case. But we do have written proof that shows that the East London ‘Idiotiser’ is being published in a way that a fully fledged racist title would behave. We are starting this particular examination by looking at this week’s front page item alleging that Tower Hamlets Council` has had a ‘race row’. More soon. In fact much of the racist ‘contents’ the East London Idiotiser carries gets repeated by officially racist parties, outlets and operatives soon afterwards._We start examining the behaviour of the East London Idiotiser, later on today Thursday 13 September 2007 As a contextual intro, we are looking at the contents of the ‘East London Idiotiser’ , as published today, Thursday 13 September 2007_We have been describing the ‘East London Advertiser’ as the ‘East London Idiotiser’ for very good reasons and on impeccable evidence. We had assumed that the Idiotiser/s behind the scenes and operating the same Idiotising scheme that has produced the idiotic headline and the even more idiotic contents in it [‘Race Row’ front page lead in the ‘East London Idiotiser, Thursday 13 September 2007] the ‘Idiotiser, would have leant to tell the truth by now…’ But we have found no evidence of the Idiotiser learning to tell the truth, especially where the conduct of the ‘local’ ‘Tower Hamlets Council’ is concerned. But the evidence shows that far from learning to tell the truth, the Idiotiser is bent on telling lies., Especially to tell racist lies that keep the pronounce in the Borough of the significant population with such a wide range of backgrounds of cultures.

Do they earn the right to betray the local communities and make way for Big Business and other forces bent on doing down the people who ordinary do not have big money, big links and big networks? Should Tower Hamlets Councillors be allowed to act as the social uprooters of the people that make up the borough’s_ordinary population today?_1625 Hrs GMT_London Wednesday 12 September 2007_By ©Muhammad Haque_The Editor_AADHIKAR Media Foundation
How did you think the controlling clique reacted ._We refer here to the distortion of the facts - as was the contents of Joshua Peck who twisted what Abjol Miah had said ._We refer here to Cllr Turner who misinterpreted what the movers of the main motion against Crossrail had said in their speeches ._We refer to a certain other Crossrail hole plot-backer who again lied on the floor of the Council chamber when he denied that there was opposition to Crossrail hole plot in the Bow East ward._._We refer to Abdal Ullah who repeatedly shouted ‘Shame, Shame’ to Cllr Lutfa Begum as she was speaking. She had asked why the Brick Lane area had been targeted for the Crossrail hole attacks. ._We refer to Abdal Ullah who taunted Cllr Lutfa Begum by asking ‘which community’ after she had clearly stated ‘the Bangladeshis’ in relation the targets of the Crossrail attacks ._We refer to the factual contents of the original reports created by Khoodeelaar! and made available to Tower Hamlets councillors and to the council at no charge at all._We make this point about costs to emphasize the fact that Tower Hamlets Council controlling clique has admitted to spending nearly £1million on diverting the campaign attention way from the Council’s touting for Crossrail ._we refer to the facts of the presentation of the Question by Khoodeelaar! Organiser Muhammad Haque and the very serious points made about the constitution of the UK and about the obligations of the Council to abide by the UK’s treaty obligations in the context of Europe, about the Council’s failure to represent the community in the borough and the failure and or the refusal of the controlling clique to even begin to address the contents of the rest of his questions to be addressed by the controlling group._._We refer to the intended and the pathetically persistently ignorant and insulting and off the topic remark by Rupert Baden ._We refer to the untruthful assertion as made by Simon Rouse about Crossrail having been discussed [or ‘debated’] in the Council “

Campaign notes on the role played by Oona King when she was ‘MP’ in the name of Bethnal Green and Bow in boosting the image of the Crossrail hole-plot backing Tower Hamlets Council and the ‘controlling clique leaders’ -_Khoodeelaar! Breaking legal and constitutional news, actions and updates_From the previous editions of AADHIKAROnline_Khoodeelaar! campaign action history – Note on the latest fabrication about the ‘Bethnal Green and Bow ‘constituency as peddled by the poisonously lying Mail on Sunday for a second weekend, around the allegedly political past of “Oona…”- [2]_How strange that the Khoodeelaar! movement is in receipt of a hint or two today [Sunday 9 September 2007] that Tony McNulty, the husband of the Crossrail hole plot-inviting Tower Hamlets Council’s former ‘chief executive’ Christine Gilbert and himself accused of having played a key role in the drafting of a dastardly component of what is known as the ‘Hybrid’ ‘Crossrail Bill’ [now in the UK House of Commons], has probably got one thing right! As retailed in the ‘Mail on Sunday’, McNulty allegedly called Oona ‘stupid’! And in front of 100 ‘other’ ‘MPs’. The alleged confirmation by McNulty of what had been well known in the Bethnal Green and Bow Constituency took place, as is claimed in the ‘Mail on Sunday’ on 25 October 2004. The Khoodeelaar! campaign archives show that that was 3 days after the first Khoodeelaar! demonstration, held in the Greatorex Street, London E1, against the Crossrail hole-inviting role played by ‘the holder of the post at the time, of being the leader’ of Tower Hamlets Council, one Abbas Uddin ‘Helal’. Our demonstration took place on Friday 22 October 2004._And our key demand was that Tower Hamlets Council was that the Tower Hamlets Council disassociate itself with the Crossrail promoters and that it only acts as the local council that it is and ceases all communications with al the elements and forces that are promoting the Crossrail hole plot
That Khoodeelaar! demonstration actually was forced on the campaign by the STUPIDITY of the controlling clique on Tower Hamlets Council. The clique had been given a way out of the mess that it had created over its touting for Crossrail._We had asked the ‘leading’ members of the clique, at and after the ‘cabinet’ meeting of the Tower Hamlets council that had been held during the first half of October 2004, to drop the Council’s collusion and to join the community campaign against CrossRail. But as they were STUPID, they ignored our advice given in good faith._The result was that the community’s need to stop the Crossrail hole attack had to be raised to whatever political level possible. We made our intentions plain._But Oona did not attend our demonstration._And in the more than one year of the Khoodeelaar! Campaign against CrossRail hole attacks that she was [still an] MP [from 31 January 2004 to end of April 2005 when she was ousted by the voters in the constituency. She was kicked out by the community] . She did not make one communication to us saying anything about Crossrail._Far less a single word AGAINST Crossrail.
Then in one of the series of Khoodeelaar! Campaign meetings, we decided to ask her questions. Those were represented in our communication sent to her on 18 October 2004. She did not answer that one. Nor did she even acknowledge its receipt._Given that Khoodeelaar! had drafted a series of forma demands as well as texts of for a petition, against Crossrail and given the fact that there was no other entity in the constituency of Bethnal Green and Bow that was doing what Khoodeelaar! Was doing, we found it very significant that as we were stepping up the campaign against Crossrail, a strangely similarly worded petition appeared with the name of Oona ….But that petition was another instance of pro-Crossrail fabrication. It was NOT against CrossRail. It was FOR Crossrail. And it was craftily contrived by some dishonest aider and abetter of Oona who stole from the Khoodeelaar! Drafts, used some of our phrases but ended up backing the Crossrail assault…….._Who is Oona trying to kid about her alleged advocacy for the community against Crossrail?_[_To be continued] This demand continues to be our demand to the ‘local’ Tower Hamlets Council on Crossrail [and will be reiterated at the demonstration by Khoodeelaar! outside the Tower Hamlets Council at 6.30 PM on Tuesday 11 September 2007]
