The BBC Politics Show, ‘London segment’ in effect admitted today that Crossrail is crass!

That it was diverting money from real transport urgencies and priorities.

This has happened now a full three years and two months since the same programme broadcast a significant length of item about CrossRail. That the BBC programme was a result - a result, stressing here - of the KHOODEELAAR! campaign against "...Big Business looting ploy crassly conceived Crossrail scam..."

The BBC did not say that on the programme. But that is what happened. We shall now examine in detail the BBC’s role on Crossrail.

This is the first part of the examination.

For YERARS now, we have said the Crossrail scam was a CRASS one. That it was not relevant to the transport needs of the people in and around London. We have used these phrases carefully.

We have created the contextual phrases on solid evidence.

And time after time.

Our findings have been substantiated and backed by others.

Others that have not wanted to find themselves doing anything like giving credence to our findings. But the evidence has been incontrovertible. On each occasion. And they have backed us.

They have echoed us.

And they have proven us right. And they have in effect admitted to having been wrong.


Now, even Tom Brake, one of Nick Clegg’s embarrassing men of straw, flies in to make an appearance on the BBC Politics Show and ‘contributes’ to a de facto denunciation of the very CRASS Crossrail that he,. Brake, idiotically touted for and peddled in the UK House of Commons during 2005-2006 when he should not have done any such thing.

Before the Lib Dem Tom Brake today [Sunday 28 June 2009] made his break from his own braying role for Crossrail, we were entertained to the spectacle last week of another Boris Johnson kitchen cabinet member uttering confession on the Politics Show.

That confessing Boris Johnson deputy said he had been CRASS!

The word is very much an integral part of the KHOODEEKLAAR! dissecting reports on Crossrail.

The confessing crass Boris Johnson deputy has already quit his post.

But Boris is still in post. A post that Boris has abused in peddling Crossrail.

We make this point today to reiterate what we had told Zia Trench ] in March 2006.

Zia Trench was then working on the Politics Show and she visited the East End of London in March 2006 putting together a package for broadcast on the Show on Sunday 26 march 2006.

The broadcast version of the interviews with Khoodeelaar! had not included most of what we had told her. And the ‘studio’ discussion with Party MPs [Sunday 26 Maqrch 2006] also failed to address the real central defects and flaws of the CRASSrail scam.

So KHOODEELAAR! told the BBC that they had broken the agreement and the evidential, legal and constitutional conditions that we had set out prior to our agreeing to speak to the programme.

The BBC has failed so far to correct the negligent presentation.

Now that they [= the BBC and their co-couriers] have admitted that Crossrail is crass and as they have also shown [in that London segment of the Politics Show broadcast on the past 3 hours Sunday 28 June 2009] just how ignorant Boris Johnson's ‘transport’ ‘image courier’ is, we are asking the BBC to start telling the hole truth about Crossrail.

Hole of debt and waste that Crossrail is causing to the real transport priorities and urgencies in and around London
