KHOODEELAAR! No to Crossrail scam." CAMPAIGN organiser Muhammad Haque on 10 January 2008 TOLD the City of London interests-peddler Martin Waller on the Rupert Murdoched Times as follows:-



“Referring to Crossrail.

Mr Waller has got some of it right about the CRASS rail project. It is curious that he is almost wishing Crossrail in its presently planned form to be constructed. That is a departure from what he wrote in September 2007.

It must for the records be pointed out whenever the CrossRail hole scam is mentioned, that neither House of the UK Parliament is being [or has been so far] allowed to hear the arguments or see the available evidence against the scheme.

This is why the Khoodeelaar! Campaign against the CRoSSRAIL hole Bill is making constitutional law representations this month seeking to have ALL known evidence against Crossrail to be allowed to be presented before and constitutionally fully examined by the UK House of Lords 'committee' on the 'Crossrail Bill'.

We are arguing that denial of these is contrary to the UK’s constitutional obligations under the ECHR. Lest it be said that the ECHR Conventions [referred to as ‘the Convention’] is not central to the domestic UK legislative process, the main promoter of the Crossrail Bill in the House of Commons had to state whether he [Alistair Darling 22 February 2005] was satisfied that the contents of the Bill were compatible with the ‘Conventions’. He [or Ruth Kelly now, as the occupant of the post as the Secretary of State that Alistair Darling held on 22 February 2005] cannot have it both ways.

Either they recognise the substantial constitutional place in the UK that the ‘Contention’ has, or they don’t.

If they do recognise the ‘Convention’ [which is what Darling’s statement of 22 February 2005 shows that they ‘do’] then they must do so all the way and stop violating the Convention whenever it suits their unaccountable agenda setters who remain unconstitutionally and undemocratically influential via extra parliamentary agencies and lobbyists. The Crossrail Bill does NOT contain the goodies that its pluggers keep parading, like ‘Lord Bassam of Brighton’ has again done in the Upper Chamber.

The UK Public are entitled to know the truth about the £Billions of public money that is being claimed for the project by its unaccountable agents and promoters. This is the least that is demanded under the democratizing provision that is available in the UK’s treaty obligations relating to the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms [=ECHR]”
