KHOODEELAAR! noting the abject silence by 'London MPs' on Friday's admission by UK Con Party that they want to scrap the remainder of ‘democracy’ in London
This is TYPICAL of the pathetic careerist and time-serving embarrassments.
It will require a huge revelation [say] something like the UK Con party’s ‘plan’ [this is hypothetical in this analytical context] to do away with most parliamentary is in London before the slumberous members of the Palace of Ghosts Minster [= also known as ‘MPs’, carrying the sleaze ball banner which Gordon Brown so ridiculously peddles as ‘British vah-loos’ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
see that ‘Dave’ Ca-Moron may be already far gone into the scam.
That the zombie behaviour of MPs in passing the bureaucratic rituals for the Big Business agenda Crossrail scam Bill [=’Crossrail Bill’, 22 February 2005 to July 2008] showed beyond all doubt that the MPs were not up to the task….
That the so-called robust Opposition in the Palace of Ghosts Minster has been is and shall continue to be a joke. That there ha never been any scrutiny, really of the Executive regardless of who is in Govt in the UK...
That in the case of 'London' say as a region, the holding of the Executive to account by ANY MPs is out of the question. When some MPs do fake it at times near an election, they do so with incomparable servility, stupidity and lack of constitutionality [To be continued]

This is the case as we are finding so many of our own blogs are no longer accessible.
Yahoo have got all those blogs but they are not letting on why they have done so.
The question is: When will Yahoo restore those blogs to the authors?
Over the years, we have posted original materials on geocities and have done so by using more than one account.
We are currently examining the matter and we may well end up seeking the intervention of courts.
We shall be publishing updates here on our efforts top get the blogs and contents from Yahoo and whoever else they may have been in fact sharing the contents and the facts of our blogs and publications with

THURROCK MP SAYS NO TO NEW RIVER CROSSING IN THE BOROUGH
Thurrock’s Labour MP Andrew Mackinlay has restated his total opposition to another River Crossing anywhere in Thurrock.
Mr Mackinlay said:
“There is a need for another river crossing in the national interest, but another bridge or tunnel in Thurrock would be an environmental disaster.
“The M25 is full; another crossing in Thurrock won’t solve congestion problems, just add to them and increase pollution.
“A new crossing must be to the East of Thurrock with infrastructure taking traffic away from the M25. Have road links that takes passing traffic away from the M25 in Thurrock and include environmental benefits such as flood protection and possibly energy generation”.

Editor Muhammad Haque
KHOODEELAAR! published the following on the internet in the evening of 10 March 2006:
The UK House of Commons hybrid draft piece of legislation, the Crossrail Bill, is being ‘scrutinised’ by a small group of MPs, collected from mainly the three ‘major’ Political Parties. The process has been overstated in its relevant capacity to alter the substantive contents of any Bill. Given that the Crossrail Bill contains monumental powers that will enable the destruction of entire communities in the East End of London, the ability – or the chances - of the MPs committee on the Crossrail Bill to make any difference must be examined against the performance of another committee which in October 2002 ‘heard evidence’ from one Michael Keith, a councillor on the East End Borough of Tower Hamlets Council. The same Michael Keith is now leader of the same council and is widely associated with the promotion of the Crossrail Bill and plan as a whole. Keith is set to be among Tower Hamlets Councillors who would enjoy the chance to appear before the Crossrail committee to make the case for the Council’s defiance of the local community. The MPs need to be much more alert and vigilant this time round then their counterparts were on Tuesday 15 October 2002.
This is Michael Keith fabricating away before an MPs Select Committee on Tuesday 15 October 2002.
Very carefully, read the questions and his answers quoted by Khoodeelaaronline below from the records published by the UK Houses of Parliament
Note that materials like this [quoted below] are never ever reported to the people in the community. Not by the propaganda titles EAST END Life [which Khoodeelaar! has dubbed East End Lies] and not on the Tower Hamlets Council’s web site.
Nor indeed by the so-called ‘local’ press, typified by the East London Idiotiser.
Nor indeed by any of the –so-called ‘Left’ organs allegedly watching the antics of the corrupt Tower Hamlets Council.
And it never is examined by any elected membership on the London Borough of Tower Hamlets Council itself that it really relates to.
Come to think of that, the MPs themselves [Tuesday 15 October 2002] puzzlingly [!] failed or refused to pursue their examination of Michael Keith while he was still before their select committee.
They let him go.
Even after finding a hole as hollow as the Crossrail hole [that was being at the same time being] planned by Michael Keith’s co-promoters to be dug in and forced through the Brick Lane London E1 area, the MPs’ chair delivered the customary thanks to Michael Keith for his alleged evidence.
To call what Keith had stated 'evidence' would be to almost call the 'researches' of someone of David Irving’s description independent, truthful, objective and respectable.
They asked him questions about the undeniable negligence and failures of the Tower Hamlets Council to make proper and competent use of the resources that they did have available.
They asked him about any regrets.
About any lessons being learnt by Tower Hamlets Council.
Instead of saying yes, they had learnt lessons.
Yes they had found how so many repairs claims were mis-logged and how despite making annual claims about how fantastic the Council’s repairs service was, they had in fact been a n unmitigated and negligent and culpable disaster for which the entire Tower Hamlets Council administration should have been forced to resign en masse, Michael Keith, like a Big Business robot programmed to retort in a fixed mode, said a string of things that increasingly took the ‘answer’ away from the subject and into almost prehistoric times and out into the outer spaces!
There did not follow any rigorous examination of the contents of what Keith told the MPs.
No scrutiny of the claims about the hundreds of millions that would be required if Tower Hamlets Council were to do the necessary repair and maintenance work.
Nobody asked him about the stupidity of giving answers on factual states of buildings in estimates. Related estimates and extrapolated estimates.
Nobody stopped to tell him that he was making an insane statement that had neither head nor tail, neither a start nor an end. That he was offering a nihilistic scenario which could only have a ‘closure’ by destroying the Council’s then existing housing stock.
The result was logically inevitable.
Three years after that extraordinary display of corrupt thinking, Michael Keith was able to participate in the aggressive transfer of Tower Hamlets Council housing stock that he was thinking of doing as he made that set of dishonest and corrupt statements quoted here.
.As it has been seen on the ground in Tower Hamlets during 2004 –2006 in the quite brazenly illegal and undemocratic transfer of the Council housing stock away from the public control of the Council into the de facto ownership of cabals masquerading as Registered social landlords who are blatantly linked with key figures in the controlling clique on Tower Hamlets Council.
Two segments are quoted here, an MPs question and Michael Keith’s answers;

Examination of Witnesses(Questions 40-42)
COUNCILLOR MICHAEL KEITH AND MS MAUREEN MCELENEY
TUESDAY 15 OCTOBER 2002
Chairman
40. Could you let us have a note on that?
(Councillor Keith) Yes.
Mr Streeter
41. We all know that when we embarked on a massive social house-building programme in the 1960s and 1970s, lots of mistakes were made, such as high-rise blocks and so on. My concern about finding the numbers you are talking about and the kind of resources you require or that you are asking for from government to provide a lot more social housing is are we not going to repeat the same mistakes in the future?
Can you assure the Committee that lessons have been learnt and that the kind of units you would be erecting would be high-quality housing and people would actually want to live there not just for five years but for 25 years?
(Councillor Keith) I think that is a question which almost needs to bounce back to national legislation. I think it is an absolutely fair question, but I think it is also something that many of the registered social landlords, who will be the major players in this, need to answer and it is a question which also potentially triggers off debates about the quality of new build within an urban renaissance and thinking back to issues of Parker Morris standards and so on which opens up another debate which I think is a very important debate, but maybe not one to capture in two sentences. I do not think it is one that you could expect again a single authority or a single social landlord to respond to, but I do think it is or it should be encumbent if those resources are made available that the quality is radically different from what we saw in the 1960s and 1970s.
Chairman
42. Can I press you on the question of not the building standards, but the money there to provide communal services. With most of the lofts that have been converted within Tower Hamlets, you will find that service charges are running at anything up to £80 a month or even higher. Now, if you are on a middle-class income, that may be affordable, but for most of the people we are talking about with affordable housing, is there really going to be enough money for the caretaking and the looking after of high-density living in Tower Hamlets?
(Councillor Keith) I think there are examples of high-density new build, stuff Piers Goff has done recently in Scotland, where you can get high density and affordability. I think it raises major questions of design as much as major questions as to the specifics.
Chairman: I think we can leave it at that. Thank you very much for your evidence

KHOODEELAAR! told How the Crossrail scam AGENDA, peddled by G Brown & colluding clique on Tower Hamlets Council were letting East End down!
2030 GMT
London
Friday 27 November 2009:
KHOODEELAAR! camapgn organiser Muhammad Haque said on the London SPECTATOR magazine web site on 16 January 2009 how Tower Hamlets Council and the agenda of Gordon Brown were letting down the people in the East End of London. This is the full texts of the piece, that appeared as a Comment: "Muhammad Haque January 16th, 2009 3:55pm Yesterday's [Thursday 15 January 2009] GCSE results have shown again that Tower Hamlets Schools are continuing to fail the pupils and the community.….
The East End Borough of Tower Hamlets is thus guaranteed to remain ‘qualified’ as ‘the most deprived borough’ in the country - a description published by the Times newspaper [and web site] last year attributing that to the then ‘leader’ of the same Council. I spoke to the ‘full Council’ when it sat in that mode, formally, on 17 December 2008. I did that to argue against Crossrail which I have been calling as a creator of poverty. Tower Hamlets is next door to Newham. And so far as I can see, there has been NO statistically or socially or economically significant or citable JOBS created for the ‘ordinary people’ of and in Tower Hamlets by the 2012 Olympic Games Hosting programme. When I spoke to Tower Hamlets Council as it sat as ‘full Council’ [17.12.2008], I cited the fact that Gordon Brown’s regime had been advertising in Polish publications for specifically skilled recruits for Crossrail work to be carried out in Tower Hamlets. I pointed out that local people of all backgrounds in the ordinary population in Tower Hamlets were not going to get the jobs because they did not have the requisite skills. I contrasted the advertisements in the Polish media to the absence of corresponding adverts in the ‘local’ ‘East London Idiotiser’ [‘Advertiser’] that circulates mainly in and around the Borough of Tower Hamlets. That omission I linked with the failures of the local schools and related institutions and agencies in Tower Hamlets. I addressed a particular member of Tower Hamlets Council who had asked me to explain how Crossrail would CAUSE or create poverty in the Borough. As time was limited to only a couple of minuets for me to give that answer, I later asked that Councillor through his office in the Council, to get in touch with me so I could give him more evidential information on poverty and jobs and how Gordon Brown’s propaganda about creating jobs in the East End of London through Crossrail and the 2012 games Hosting was totally false and misleading. It is a full month since then. And I have not heard from the councillor. I also spoke to the current holder of the post of ‘leader’ of Tower Hamlets Council the same evening [17 December 2008] and asked him to answer the charges that I had been making about the Council's failures on jobs in the Borough in the context of my address to the ‘full Council’. He promised to get back to me soon.
I have not heard from him. It is absolutely important to put on the record the fact that regardless of their ethnic backgrounds and affiliations, the local Councils in and around the Stratford site of the 2012 Games and in the affected parts of London Crossrail are not behaving in response to the facts on the ground. They are, as the ‘local authorities’ living in a world of spin where they move or not solely on the basis of whether their actions will keep them in post or not..
The future of jobs and social cohesion is not being made at all secure by the over the top reliance on spin that Brown has become hooked on. Nothing that Gordon Brown has said today about Stratford makes any sense at all as far as the economic and the social lives of the majority of the ordinary people in the East End go. And the less Tessa Jowell says the better. She evidently [by her promotional slots allowed here by the BBC this morning] does not recall Ken Livingstone actually boastfully admitting on the BBC Question Time ‘Mayoral election’ special’ shown in April 2008 that he, Livingstone, had LIED to get the ‘London Bid’ done so that the UK Govt would spend so much money in that East End area... The evidence of Canary Wharf shows that only because there is a fast and concentrated set of buildings done in a formerly derelict area that the ‘immediate’ locality and the population would benefit.….. There has got to be a qualitative and quantum shift away from the degenerate ’thinking’ that Ken Livingstone epitomises and the superfluous spin that Gordon Brown has become indulgent on... The shift has got to be way away from party political, partisan or electoral considerations. If society matters, if people matter then that priority has to be seen in the actual policies... Those policies are far from present in the current packages on offer from any of the power-wielders at any relevant level.

Tuesday 27 November 2007____In a climate thick with evidence of lying and corruption linked with holders of some of the ‘highest’ offices of state in Britain today, the ‘mainstream’ media has been correctly full of stories about how David Abrahams [aka ‘David Martin’ or ‘ D Martin’] was so successful in paying so much money to the Blaired party for so long. the same media are also the supporters of the utterances by the same sort of holders of office in the CrossRail hole plot-plugging Gordon Brown administration. _We shall examine in some detail some of these links. _Back, however, to the examination of the lying dune via the tower hamlets council for the CrossRail hole plot over the past four years – that is the years of the Khoodeelaar! campaign so far... ____The latest ‘mainstream media’ plug today [Tuesday 27 November 2007] for the CRoSSRAIL hole-inviter ‘chief executive’ of the tower hamlets council during the khoodeelaar! Campaign against that attack [2004 to Sept 2006] Christine Gilbert has been perpetrated by the guardian with the assistance of peter Wilby, the former editor of the new ss [=’new statesman and society’ which has reverted to the title ‘new statesman’ after toying with the ‘new ss’ style for a few years when the ignorant and racist Steve prat platt was its ‘editor’]. _Wilby has been a typically morally challenged journo. His main claim to professionalism was at the times education supplements before he moved on. But he has not demonstrated the grasp of facts and familiarity with the reality that any decent journalist worth the description must show. And so it is with his promotion today [Tuesday 27.11.2007] of Christine Gilbert. Wilby paints a picture of Christine Gilbert that defies the weight and the warrant of the evidence. Gilbert when employed in the tower hamlets council was not at all shy of publicity. _In fact she only realised that she must not make assertions about the council’s – and thus her- achievements if she had no evidence to support those when I began to question her after a particular boast she had made in July 2003. The subject of my interrogatives in July 2003 is only marginal different from the questions that I later put to her abut her rule in brining the CRoSSRAIL hole problems to the east end. Neither descriptions of my questions were ever answered by Gilbert. the following document which I wrote and published in June 2006, 3 months before she actually left the east end council, shows the breath and the significance if the questions and it as illustrates the depth of the wring that the guardian does in promoting time-serving careeristic liars. the cost to the community of the guardian’s and of the ether outlets en the 'mainstream' UK media’s promotion of lairs is higher than any sum that cud ever be calculated by the guardians’ resident control freak and Blair party propagandist, Polly Toynbee.___[to be continued] _________“© Muhammad Haque / CBRUK /KHOODEELAAR / LAWMEDIA 2006__All the alleged cries in ‘sections of ‘the British press today [Friday 9 June 2006] of ‘cronyism’ at the appointment of Christine Gilbert to the Ofsted post are ritualistic. They bear no substance whatever. _None of the comments is based on any awareness of the facts of what Christine Gilbert has been upto as ‘chief executive’ in the London borough of Tower Hamlets Council. ___I know why. _They don’t acknowledge the fact that they should know that I have been calling for Christine Gilbert’s resignation for more than a year. I have been doing this on the Internet and locally publicly. As based on the evidence Christine Gilbert's illegitimate role in post as chief executive. _So many serious issues of concern to the people in Tower Hamlets have been jeopardised by the unsuitability of Christine Gilbert that the only course open within the legal and constitutional framework has been to make public the serious concerns that they have been. I have been forced to do that because of the rampant abuse by Christine Gilbert of the position of Chief executive. __She has defied all the standards and has become part of the corrupt clique that has caused so many problems to the integrity and the relevance to the community of the Tower Hamlets Council. ___The latest call came in a KHOODEELAAR - CBRUK letter sent to her in January 2006. That letter was also published on the UK indymedia site. As is often the case with that exercise, some spelling errors were included in the published document. __Here is that letter as sent to Christine Gilbert in January 2006. __The letter contains more than enough information, evidence and analysis to put in context the fact that today I am writing to Tony Blair demanding that the appointment be cancelled as Christine Gilbert is not fit to hold any post that gives her access to power over large numbers of people’s lives. _“ In the legal communication sent earlier today [31 January 2006] to tower hamlets council chief executive Christine Gilbert, the khoodeelaar legal affairs unit tells her: "your failure to comply with your legal duties and because of your disregard for the upholding of standard on the council and because of your disappointing collusion with the illegitimate interests who now hold control on the tower hamlets council, the khoodeelaar campaign must give expression to the legitimate and democratic imperative and need and necessity to call for your immediate resignation and [in the event that you refuse or fail to resign] for your being democratically and constitutionally removed from your office as your continued holding of that position is in contravention of your legal duties and as it is jeopardising the operation of the lbth council as the democratic representer of the local community in the London borough of tower hamlets" ____legal communication to Christine Gilbert on lbth council 'role' on CrossRail hole 31-1-2006 ____Dear Ms Gilbert _re: khoodeelaar campaign meeting 22 January 2006 – the ultimatum to the council to pass full council resolution opposing the Crossrail hole, and the role so far of the controlling group on tower hamlets council ___this is to confirm at 1400 hrs GMT Tuesday 31 January 2006 that ____1. You, still occupying the position of chief executive in the London borough of tower hamlets council [lbth] which position you occupied on 6 October 2004 when the khoodeelaar campaign members and supporters observed the formal meeting of the lbth council cabinet that went through an agenda item on the lbth council’s role on the CRoSSRAIL hole plan, have not either acknowledged or replied to or in any legally acceptable or evident way acted in acknowledgement of the demands contained in our communication to you on 23 January 2006, ___2. You had written a letter to cbrukcentral in October 2004 in response to the cbruk questionnaire sent to you [and otherwise published by khoodeelaar in the local community in tower hamlets and on the worldwide web] in which the cbruk organisation stated that cllr Michael Keith, then chairing the lbth council’s regeneration committee, had misled the local community about the lbth council’s formal role and informal role in promoting the interests of the crossrail hole scheme promoters. In that letter you had questioned the cbruk central position and you also claimed that you had made notes or that you had had access to the actual notes of the meeting of 6 October 2004 and that those notes and your own recollections contradicted the cbruk central position about Michael Keith having misled the local community on the role played so far by Michael Keith himself and by the controlling group on tower hamlets council in promoting the interests of those who wanted to dig a hole in the brick lane London e1 area. ___3. You failed to answer the further questions, analyses and dissection that were then put to you by khoodeelaar! and by the cbruk central committee showing you the findings of all khoodeelaar investigations into the behaviour of cllr Michael Keith upto that time in promoting the crossrail hole –pluggers’ interest and you were sent those in demonstrable accordance with the highest known and recognised standards of forensic pathology __4. You neglected to answer the questions or to deal with the evidence or to respond to the later and the newer and the more elaborate allegations the khoodeelaar campaign was making against the role you had played in allowing the violations of the constitutional duties and in tolerating or overlooking the illegalities being committed and perpetrated by sitting controlling councillors against the local community and against the local electorate and the local electorate on the matter of the crossrail hole prompters and interests ___5. You have continued in the past nine days [since the khoodeelaar campaign ultimatum of 22 January 2006] to show disregard for the law, to show contempt for the legal duties and the rule of law that you ought to have been following prior to the ultimatum of 22 January 2006 and you have done all of those and you have continued to fail to conduct yourself as the impartial, law-abiding, constitution-respecting holder of the publicly-paid position of chief executive because you have been in collusion yourself against the interests of the local community that is the target of the crossrail hole attacks plan bill and that that collusion, that disrespect to the local community on your part is at odds with the statement which you published in the past 30 days after your having been included in Tony Blair’s ‘honours list’. __6. You have contradicted your own alleged affinity with the democratic rights and interest of the local community and on your alleged loyalty and your alleged respect to the local community in the London borough of tower hamlets __7. You have allowed your office to be abused again by the very interests that are threatening the local community in the London borough of tower hamlets. _8. You have according to the plans of the anti-social, anti-east end interest, pretended that you have not received our communication of 23 and 25 January 2006. _9. You have thus caused another hindrance against the community and you have also taken part in another illegitimate but gigantic corruption of the powers and the remits of the lbth council in the illegal and the corrupting misleading of and via the relevant [mainly council-funding related] elements in the local community by taking part de facto in endorsing the criminal interference with the democratic representation of the local community’s lawful and constitution demands that is contained in and symbolised by the single motion which Mr Muhammad haque put to the meeting of 22 January 2006 and which was unanimously passed by that meeting. ___10. Because of your failure to comply with your legal duties and because of your disregard for the upholding of standard on the council and because of your disappointing collusion with the illegitimate interests who now hold control on the tower hamlets council, the khoodeelaar campaign must give expression to the legitimate and democratic imperative and need and necessity to call for your immediate resignation and [in the event that you refuse or fail to resign] for your being democratically and constitutionally removed from your office as your continued holding of that position is in contravention of your legal duties and as it is jeopardising the operation of the lbth council as the democratic representer of the local community in the London borough of tower hamlets. ___End of the legal communication to Christine Gilbert chief executive of the lbth council London E14 2BG at 1450 hrs GMT on Tuesday 31 January 2006_______Earlier today Tuesday 27.11.2007, we had published the following intro: -__In the 3 years and 11 months of the Khoodeelaar! Campaign in defence of the community in the East End of London and against the takeover plot being pushed by Big Business via CrossRail, we have identified the anti-social, pro-Big Business role being played via the Tower Hamlets Council whose controlling bureaucracy has been manipulated via a cabal that has consisted of secretive individuals who have had persistently malign influence on the Council by default. __Some of these elements are paid by the City of London interests under various guises. Others are being bribed and used to betray the East End of London through a variety of corrupting ploys. All of these elements are linked with the controlling clique on the ‘local’ Tower Hamlets Council. On paper it is the elected council for the people of the area that is most identified as the East End of London.
