George Galloway MP - summary of speech against Crossrail hole Bill

03.03.2006 16:52

This Edition of Khoodeelaaronline has been updated [3rd Edition of the day] at 1630 Hrs GMT on Friday 3 March 2006 from London United Kingdom



Key points from the speech against Crossrail hole delivered by George Galloway MP at the Khoodeelaar! demonstration on 1 March 2006:-

1. George Galloway MP for Bethnal Green and Bow spoke at the Khoodeelaar! Demonstration against Tower Hamlets Council over that Council’s role on Crossrail hole Bill, on Wednesday 1 March 2006 outside the ‘Town hall’ Mulberry Place in London E 14.
2. His first point was that he had just been to a meeting at the Home Office in London. He said that Tony McNulty, a Home Office minister, was about to publish new rules that would adversely affect the people in the Brick Lane London E1 area.
3. Galloway then stated factual links that explained the real agenda of the Blaired UK Governmeent in its push for the Crossrail hole across the East End Borough of Tower Hamlets – to dispossess the people, to devastate the area and to make the area ready for takeover by the Big Business interests and Big capital
4. Galloway also recalled that the way that the Crossrail hole plan was being pushed had telling similarities with the way that the British Union of Fascists fronted by Oswald Mosley had targeted the then mainly-Jewish inhabited parts of the same East End of London. Galloway paid tributes to the fighters against Mosley’s Fascists and reiterated the determination of todays. East End campaigners against the Crossrail hole attacks to stop the Crossrail passing through our area. “They shall not pass” said George Galloway, evoking the spirit of the 1930s East End anti-fascists. “They shall not pass” echoed the demonstrators. “Crossrail shall not pass” said demonstration leader Muhammad Haque., “Crossrail shall not pass” said the demonstrators.

Tower Hamlets Crossrail-hole councillors behaved as bullies

04.03.2006 12:37


Khoodeelaaronline received [on Thursday 2 March 2006] comments from one of the speakers at the Khoodeelaar! demonstration against Crossrail-hole Council - outside the Tower Hamlets 'Town Hall' on 1 March 2006.

Speaking to khoodeelaaronline, Kay Jordan, the director of the Spitalfields Small Business Association [SSBA] said,

“I am disgusted with the behaviour of those individuals who insulted a woman councillor and tried to undermine her confidence as she spoke in support of her motion.

That motion had more sense in it than the contents of the motions put forward by the whole lot of them on the subject over the past three years.

They are forcing the community to have no tolerance towards them. If they will not even show respect to a woman speaking in support of the community, which is what that motion was then what is the point of our having a so-called elected council?

Are they saying that they will bully us because they can do so in the safety of the council chamber?
Do they think we are stupid and won’t notice how they are treating this one councillor who had the guts to stand up and speak out against the wrong polices of this Council?
