KHOODEELAAR! Campaign against “Big Business agenda of looting the public under pretexts of big infrastructure projects - typified by Crossrail, London…” updating challenge to Big Biz propaganda outfit railnews.co.uk to show evidence that justifies the multi £Billion expenditure on the scam. However railndews co.uk continues to fail to publish ANY critical comment about CrossRail. As it has failed to publish the Khoodeelaar! campaign Organiser’s latest critique posted on railwnews.co.uk earlier today [Friday 04 June 2010].
The refusal and or failure on the part of railnews.co.uk to publish such critical comments merely add substance to the already well-founded call for the scrapping of Crossrail. Of ALL the ‘projects’ that are being promoted in any part of the UK at the present time, only Crossrail is treated as being beyond any rigours of analysis, of accountability or answerability.
This is seen most clearly in the robotically delivered utterances ‘for Crossrail’ as mouthed by Boris Johnson. Just in the same way that they are still being delivered by the predecessor robot Ken Livingstone. For the past six years and five months, Khoodeelaar! has collected evidence and published the findings as based on the originally gathered evidence showing that CrossRail is not rationally backable. And it is not.
As was seen during the formal period when the ‘CrossRail Bill’ was rubber stamped [into the notional statute book] through the two Houses of the UK Parliament, the evidence that showed Crossrail to be less important than the priority needs of the current tube and related rail networks in the London region was prevented from being put to MPs and peers.
Equally, evidence of design flaws seriously adversely affecting the environment and the communities in London was prevented from being put to the MPs and the Peers. Evidence of economic calculations and planning about CrossRail showing that the scheme was a deeply flawed one, was also prevented from being put to the MPs and the Peers. The MPs and the Peers thus became stooges.
It follows that the 'Crossrail Bill' was a sham. As is the CrossRail project. And even the then Opposition Con Party backed the promotion of the Sham scheme. Thus it is a scam. Not a scheme. Unless they can show evidence that proves that CrossRail will produce overwhelming economic benefits to the ordinary people, the scam should be scrapped forthwith and the losses should be cut.
The challenge for Hammond and his team at the DfT politically is this: have they the intelligence the sense and the credibility to ‘change’ the status quo of lies and ft6duelenec that have assisted the big business scam up to now in the way that it has been promoted at the some of the other, more urgent transport economic priorities in , around and about London?
