OFSTED - East London lesson for Cronying Tony Blair – Drop Christine

© Muhammad Haque | 10.06.2006 18:18 | Analysis | Social Struggles | London

The Khoodeelaar! campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill - Blair’s de facto salvaging of the career of Christine Gilbert via the Ofsted appointment is only significant as a peripheral indicator of how immoral his decision making is, contrary to the routine professions that he is at all a morally active ethically laudable decision maker… the central lesson is that his judgement is seriously flawed and that he is as anti-democratic and unconstitutional on this one as he has been on all key issues of the day in his 'premiership'.. Blair’s recent acknowledgement that the crossrail bill [now in the uk house of commons] had to be ‘handled sensibly’ showed the latest public confirmation that our campaign against Crossrail bill was affecting him and his unaccountable entourage.

Khoodeelaar! has been leading the campaign for both democratic accountability as well as for moral and ethical accountability from the elected holders of office in the inner city east end of london. This week's announcement that the chief officer in tower hamlets council was leaving was accompanied by another announcement of breathtaking immorality from Tony Blair’s establishment. Blair’s de facto salvaging of the career of Christine Gilbert via the Ofsted appointment is only significant as a peripheral indicator of how immoral his decision making is, contrary to the routine professions that he is at all a morally active ethically laudable decision maker… the central lesson is that his judgement is seriously flawed and that he is as anti-democratic and unconstitutional on this one as he has been on all key issues of the day in his 'premiership'.. Blair’s recent acknowledgement that the crossrail bill [now in the uk house of commons] had to be ‘handled sensibly’ showed the latest public confirmation that our campaign against Crossrail bill was affecting him and his unaccountable entourage. Weeks earlier, he had conceded that the crossrail bill was proving an unexpected liability when he was forced to shunt the crossrail bill minister Alistair darling off to the dti . He brought in a most unsuitable replacement in the form of Douglas alexander, who has no manifest democratic credentials to warrant any different treatment from the campaign against crossrail hole bill than had applied to his predecessor in post.blair has now shown a third admission that the crossrail bill is in trouble. He has got london mayor ken Livingstone to mount a counter to the khoodeelaar! Campaign against Crossrail hole bill Livingstone has teamed up with his apparent adversary, the monopoly london evening ‘newspaper’ the evening standard. But neither the EVENING STANARD editorial [2nd in a month] aimed at Gordon Brown nor the full page puff for Crossrail-hole-Ken makes any economic sense.The Crossrail hole Bill plugs are full of ‘planned economic growth’ and ‘planned benefits’ but they are way out of sync with the actual economic analysis.The UK economy is NOT growing. The world economic trends also discourage any hocus pocus exaggeration that Ken Livingstone is prone to making There is no justification for the Crsosrail hole line because the EXISTING railway infrastructure can be maintained and improved and added to with less cost to the pubic purse and within a shorter time than would be the case if a CrossRail line were to be constructed.that is the general objection.The local East End economy has no need for it. No demand for it.And the Crsosrail hole station at Whitechapel will NOT serve the local east End economic. It will be a link to take over the Eats End . By people who will target the area for economic takeover.Those facts are being confirmed again by some of the disclosures being heard before the formally sitting Crossrail Bill select committee.The more facts get confirmed, the more substance is lent to the Khoodeelaar! camapgn for the scrapping of the Crsosrail hole Bill.
