Dear George

KHOODEELAAR communications and questions to George Galloway Thursday 26 January 2006 about the Crossrail hole Bill

This is a brief note to confirm that I have spoken to many people in this constituency who have sought my views on your recent movements. Now that you are widely reported to have become available to contact via your office in the House of Commons, London, I am putting these following items of information and the outstanding questions to you about the Crossrail hole Bill. Please reply to this e-mail address as a matter of urgency today Thursday 26 January 2006:-

Information for George Galloway, MP for Bethnal Green and Bow

1. That the KHOODEELAAR the Brick Lane London E1 Area campaign against the Crossrail hole plan/scheme/project Bill was backed by a very fully packed Brady Centre meeting on Sunday 22 January 2006 where the local Tower Hamlets Council was given a two week ultimatum to pass a Council resolution opposing the Crossrail hole tunnel plan and to make that resolution available to Parliament in time so that no procedural time limit was missed and that should the Tower Hamlets Council fail to do so then legal and or other constitutional actions would be taken by and on behalf of the community to establish the community’s right to be defended and represented by the local Council.
2. That we have served the chief executive of the LBTH Council with due and comprehensive notice of the community demand for Tower Hamlets council to pass the resolution unequivocally opposing the Crossrail hole plans/scheme Bill and to submit the same to the UK parliament without delay and in any event not after any relevant crucial procedural stage is passed or missed.


Questions to George Galloway 1010 Hrs GMT Thursday 26 January 2006

1. Do you agree with the widely publicised criticism of you during the past three weeks that your most recent absences from the Bethnal Green and Bow Constituency and from your office in the House of Commons have adversely affected the interests of your constituents over the Crossrail Bill now in the UK Parliament? Whether your answer is yes or no, please state why your answer is credible, truthful and consistent with the legitimate expectations and the democratic rights of the people in the constituency on the matter of the Crossrail Bill.
2. Do you agree with the KHOODEELAAR demands that we have put to the local Tower Hamlets Council to date and if so what steps if any have you taken to aid the process of getting the Tower Hamlets Council to implement the demands?
3. We have put our demands on the World Wide Web throughout our main campaign and have included in archive files those of our demands that had not been originally published on the World Wide Web. Do you agree with those? If so, what steps have you taken in your capacity as the MP for Bethnal Green and Bow to see those demands implemented and recognised by these concerned and responsible including the Secretary of State for Transport [the UK cabinet minister fro Transport]?
4. What would you say is the best course of action for the community in the Brick Lane London E1 Area to taker or follow or support to protect the area from the Crossrail hole scheme/plan Bill?

Yours sincerely
The Honorary Coordinator
KHOODEELAAR! The Brick Lane London E1 Area campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill

NEW STATESMAN fails to tell the truth about Crossrail attack on East End

27.01.2006 13:08



We have today [Friday 27 January 2006] sent the following electronic message to the Editor of the NEW STATESMAN, lONDON


"Your publication the NEW STATESMAN has failed to report on the community's two year long battle as brilliantly implemented by the grassroots KHOODEELAAR movement against the Crossrail hole attack on the East End - the attack is going to take place as soon as the Crossrail Bill gets the go-ahead following the current Parliamentary formalities. Your publication has remained as bourgeois and corrupt as it always was when it came to the people in the East End. You have opted for racist trendies to make the odd occasional forays into the area and you have sought to reinstate the image of discredited cronies and time-servers and you have failed to show that for two years now there has gone on a very solid community opposition to the Crossrail Trojan horse that has been foisted on the area under the guise of 'regeneration' prospects etc touted for by the frontiers on the local Tower Hamlets Council acting as de facto agents for Big Business and looters of public money. Another Millennium Dome is on its way and you have failed and failed and your failure has not been in any way rectified by the latest sad contribution by Kevin McGuire who makes only passing and misleading reference to Crossrail"

Contextual documentary against Crossrail hole in the BRick Lane London E1 Area

28.01.2006 14:28

The following KHOODEELAAAR document was published on the UK indymedia websites at 1001 Hrs GMT on 15 January 2006
ON TUESDAY OF THIS COMING WEEK, 17 JANUARY 2006, A UK HOUSE OF COMMONS COMMITTEE IS DUE TO START FORMALLY LOOKING AT THE CROSSRAIL HOLE BILL IN VIEW OF THE PETITIONS THAT HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED MAINLY BY OBJECTORS TO THE BILL. THERE IS NO ROOM IN THAT PROCESS FOR THE TRUTH OF THE REAL POLITICAL MACHINATIONS AND BETRAYALS DURING THE PAST THREE YEARS BY THE ‘ELECTED’ POLITICIANS FOR THE AREA AFFECTED IN LONDON

© CBRUK / KHOODEELAAR 2006


KHOODEELAAR THE BRICK LANE LONDON E1 COMMUNITY CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE CROSSRAIL HOLE BILL IS now set to draw public attention to the unnecessary attack via the Crossrail hole scheme on a widely-noted most deprioved part of the east end. The publication programme is coinciding with the scheduled start of the formal ‘scrutiny’ of the house of commons Crossrail bill by the formally appointed ‘select committee’ beginning next week.

The MPs committee is only going to look at the formally submitted petitions those petitions are in accordance with the overly bureaucratic and jargonised procedure of the House of Commons. there is no room in that process for the truth of the real political machinations and betrayals that have caused the problem of the Crossrail hole to be resisted by the local community in the east end.

For the past 24 months, that defence of the community ahs been carried out by the khoodeelaar brick lane London e1 community campaign against the Crossrail hole plan, scheme, project and bill.
The facts and the evidence of that campaign are essential for a proper and genuine and factual understanding of what the Crossrail hole Bill is about and why it must be scrapped.

CAMPAIGN SCHEDULE AS AT 0930 HRS LONDON SUNDAY 15 JANUARY 2006
1. publication of the khoodeelaar brick lane london e1 community documentary evidence of the role of the former Bethnal green ands bow mp Oona king – analysing her promotion of the Crossrail scheme and based on the speech she made in which she stated that the local community would come round to accepting the Crossrail assault on the community if only the Crossrail promoters explained the alleged advantages more!
2. publication of the latest evidence of the collusion with Crossrail hole scheme promoters by the controlling elements on tower hamlets council which invited the Crossrail destruction attacks to the east end under the multiple duplicity of ‘regeneration’.
3. Publication of the khoodeelaar demands to the formal tower hamlets council for the council to oppose the Crossrail hole attacks on both the brick lane london e1 area as well as on other parts of the east london borough of tower hamlets. The khoodeelaar demands date back to January 2004.
4. Publication of the khoodeelaar demands to Gordon brown [February 2004] and to Tony Blair [March 2004] and to Alistair darling [May 2004]
5. publication of the khoodeelaar investigation into the overdozing on poverty and deprivation by the controlling corrupt cliques on the tower hamlets council who have wanted to maintain poverty to remain a factor in the east end as part of the ‘central uk govt. funding programme as affecting the borough. the glaring lies that the same cliques have been perpetrating over the past week alleging that they even know what the needs of the community are let alone have any willingness to recognise the community far less show true and democratic respect top the people who actually own the council but who have been disenfranchised by the corrupt clique that has been in de facto control of the tower hamlets council’s agenda.
6. Publication of the evidence of how Crossrail hole plan would destroy the future of the youths and prematurely blight all community efforts and stability in the east end.
