Khoodeelaar! TOLD the Maidenhead Advertiser so. And other ‘mainstream’ ‘local’ and ‘regional’ media in the UK so. That they were publishing fakery for Crossrail scam.
As has the Maidenhead Advertiser just done. In two days of the spree indulged in by Transport for London [=TfL] peddling their latest failure [their incurring of the debt of £1 Billion] on CRASSrail as a ‘boost’, all the ‘mainstream’ media [which are controlled by publishers who are the, themselves linked one way or another with Big Businesses] have been playing along and allowing TfL the peddling and the lying. Suppressing the basic facts denying the public the truth. KHOODEELAAR! here publishes the comments addressed to the Maidenhead Advertiser. But the principled points and the analysis could apply equally to all the other media carrying the same TfL lie as a ‘boost’:

Khoodeelaar! TOLD the Maidenhead Advertiser so. And other ‘mainstream’ ‘local’ and ‘regional’ media in the UK so. That they were publishing fakery for Crossrail scam. As has the Maidenhead Advertiser just done. In two days of the spree indulged in by Transport for London [=TfL] peddling their latest failure [their incurring of the debt of £1 Billion] on CRASSrtail as a ‘boost’, all the ‘mainstream’ media [which are controlled by publishers who are the, themselves linked one way or another with Big Businesses] have been playing along and allowing TfL the peddling and the lying. Suppressing the basic facts denying the public the truth. KHOODEELAAR! here pushes the comments addressed to the Maidenhead Advertiser. But the principled points and the analysis could apply equally to all the other media carrying the same TfL lie as a ‘boost’:
Your piece [see texts below this comment] is misleading. That loan is NOT a benefit. It is a liability. And you have not told the basic facts. Transport for London [TfL] is incompetent and wasteful. It is irresponsible. As there is no real scrutiny of its actual conduct. Peter Hendy, the over-paid TfL front man, was typically smug earlier this eek about this liability. The mainstream [!] media let him get away with boasting about a liability that should not have been incurred in the first place. You have not said or even allowed for the inclusion of the possibility of the debt-servicing costs. In all their ramifications over the next years and decades. You have dressed up the debts-incurring ‘achievement’ as a gain! Which is not surprising at all. This is typical of the plugs being engineered by the forces behind the wasteful Crossrail scam. Every loss is painted as a gain, every debt and bonus payment to ‘the public’ at large! The grand con is being portrayed as benevolence! This has been going on since 2003 when the peddlers of the scam were regrouped under the auspices and control of the undemocratic, unaccountable forces plotting to loot the UK public under the guise of any number of adjectives that they can attach to this hyped up drain of public resource and diversion off the priorities in transport in and around London. When was the last time that you or any of your co-publishers across the crass-rolled-route published a single item of evidence that correlates the claims with the actual evidence on the ground? You have not done that. You could not do that. There is no correlative evidence justifying the hype let alone the debts. ALL ‘big construction’ projects by definition [=historic evidence found across the globe and over centuries] are irrational, wasteful. What is worse is the hype that surrounds them and their touts. The Crossrail Bill was not scrutinised by Parliament. The ‘regional MPs’, including Ms May [she of the 'formerly' 'nasty' party] colluded with the suppression of democracy. They chose to peddle their own little patches. That is short termist grandstanding in the extreme. That is worse than generally MPs getting caught in the scandals over expenses. The truth is that even Alistair Darling, the man who introduced the ‘CrossRail Bill’ formally to the House of Commons in February 2005 and who has been one of the series of touts for the Big Business pullers of the agenda string, has now found out that he was as careless and callous in his promotion of the scam as his co-peddlers. Darling’s admission in the past week that Gordon Brown’s claim about saving 500,000 UK jobs was ‘a lie’ [see the Mail on Sunday and the Daily Mail publishing outlets] merely confirms what we have known all along. As far as the KHOODEELAAR! Constitutional campaign against the ‘Crossrail agenda’ is concerned, we told BOTH Brown and Darling so. On jobs and other unspecified goodies that ‘CrossRail’ would ALLEGEDLY bring to areas like the ‘most deprived East End of London’, we have investigated all claims and we have researched thoroughly all aspects of the situation regarding jobs and the causes linking jobs and joblessness, and we have found no evidence that either G Brown or A Darling was telling the truth on this. Or indeed any of their other co-peddlers of the Crossrail scam. We have also queried other claims and have put those to BOTH versions of the ‘Select Committee’ ‘on the Crossrail Bill’ UK Houses of Parliament. Those two versions of the bogus Select Committee were stooged into being in the House of Commons and the House of Lords. In BOTH Houses, the members behaved as the stooges that they were. Neither Committee would tolerate the presentation of evidence on any aspect of the CORE of the CrossRail scam. Nor would they want to see the examination of the claims about benefits. Least of all about the over the top claims about the ‘regeneration’ of the ‘East End of London’ by Crossrail. The Select committees would not allow the quizzing of the ‘promoter’ [that is the Department for Transport, acting as the de facto front for such interests as BECHTEL] on any aspect of the state of transport in the UK generally, in the London region in auricular. They would not allow questions about the Rod Eddington report either to be put to the promoter let alone be pursued into the rest of the ‘supporting’ MPs and peers. There were hundreds of objections to the ‘Crossrail Bill’ filed by members of the public mainly from the affected immediate areas and beyond… But they were gagged. As we have been pointing out all along. What kind of democratic accountability was that? The behaviour of the two ‘Crossrail Bill’ “Select committees’ breached the very central rationale behind the concept of parliamentary scrutiny of executive action. In any objective definition. The Crossrail Bill ‘select committees’ and the two ‘;formally devised Houses’ then rubber stamped the scam and made it into the ‘Crossrail Act’ in July 2008. BOTH ‘main’ ‘Opposition’ parties in parliament behaved like stooges. They colluded with the controlling executive and they did so to suppress the evidence from getting out to the UK public. So when David Cameron says he wants to curtail debts and waste, he has to establish his own credentials on that. The record of his side and that of the Lib Dems in both Houses on Crossrail is one of undemocratic collusion with secret agenda being pushed by un-identified forces pulling the strings through parliament. This is admitted even by PRIVATE EYE magazine which identified one of the Transport Secretaries that has been in post during the Crossrail-peddling time, Douglas Alexander, as being linked via a former aide to him who in turn has been the key puller of the power strings on behalf of the USA conglomerate BECHTEL.

Crossrail gets £1bn boost from European bank
9:55am Tue 8th Sep 09:: written by Claire Smith
The Crossrail project has received a huge funding boost today after the European Investment Bank agreed to contribute a £1billion loan.
Transport for London announced today that Europe’s largest building project has secured what the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, described as ‘one of the largest loans ever secured for a transport project’.
The construction of the network, which will stretch from Maidenhead and go through central London and out to Essex, began in May and is due to be completed in 2017.
TfL described the support as ‘international recognition of Crossrail’s importance and is a further milestone in the delivery of the project’.
Simon Brooks, vice-president of the European Investment Bank, said; “Crossrail is the largest construction project in Europe and will make an important contribution to London’s economy. “We at the EIB are delighted to support the project with this loan.”
