KHOODEELAAR! Told the London DAILY TELEGRAPH web site on 13 January 2006

"Our campaign was set up in January 2004 to defend the Brick Lane London E1 Area Against the Crossrail hole plan. We have not relied on a single holder of 'elected' office to do the job of defending the community. Why? Because we do believe in the order of things – that those who seek our votes must listen to us. And not the other way around. Come the next election, whether local or UK central, we shall be heard. The past week's events have shown that ours has been the only 'issue' that the 'Nation' has been 'interested' in! Two years on from 31 January 2004, we have been more than amply vindicated. Power to the people, we say!"
