The UK House of Commons Crossrail Bill committee of MPs is set to start their ‘scrutiny’ of the Bill this afternoon Given that TRANSPORT Minister [Secretary] Alistair Darling has already pre-empted the committee's role in making £100 million grant to the Crossrail promoters company and given that he spoke in equally unconstitutional terms for the Crossrail hole Bill on 12 January 2006 in the House of Commons, the evidence of his past role in avoiding accountability is crucial.

The UK House of Commons Crossrail Bill committee of MPs is set to start their ‘scrutiny’ of the Bill this afternoon Given that TRANSPORT Minister [Secretary] Alistair Darling has already pre-empted the committee's role in making £100 million grant to the Crossrail promoters company and given that he spoke in equally unconstitutional terms for the Crossrail hole Bill on 12 January 2006 in the House of Commons, the evidence of his past role in avoiding accountability is crucial.

As KHOODEELAAR warned him yesterday, Darling will lose credibility unless he stops doding now.

Here is a section from the KHOODEELAAR publication almost a year ago:


‘This version written between 1130 and 1210 Hrs GMT,
Published first here at 1212 hrs GMT
London Sunday 6 February 2005
UK Transport Secretary (who doubles as the Scottish Secretary in he UK Government) Alistair Darling gave a 10 minute interview broadcast on the BBC radio Five Live station hosted by Julian Worricker today.
The interview was preceded by what to Alistair Darling lasted for TWENTY minutes of broadcast of various reports and files on the issue of UK transport today.
One of the BBC Radio Five slot’s ‘guests’, a regular, Charlie Whelan, read from a selection of email and other messages from listeners about transport in the UK.
The main message was that people were most unimpressed by the transport system and that the provision and the 'management' of public transport was appalling and needed to be improved very significantly.
Given that Charlie Whelan himself read one of the most representative of the public comments about transport in the UK, it is worth pointing out that Whelan was one of the Blair regime’s key first spin doctors - in other words, publicly paid liars for the Government of the day !.

That Whelan left his job of being Gordon Brown’s spin doctor, almost at the same time as the most notorious (up to that time) of the Blair liars was forced to leave - Derek Draper - is relevant here.
Why?
How relevant?
The answer emphatically is represented in the clear parts put in further questions addressing the core of the Crossrail problem as follows:
1. Is CROSSRAIL being pushed through as a product of a pack of lies against our community in the Brick Lane area?

2. Who actually stands to lose out if the Crossrail hybrid Bill is passed and the community in the Brick Lane area and in the adjoining [parts of East London are forced out of their respective jobs, livelihoods?

3. Is the matter of the health, welfare, livelihood, of people in the East End not worthy of Gordon Brown’s consideration when he has to agree as Chancellor of the Exchequer (as The UK Finance Minister is still ‘designated’ and called) the multi £Billion public expenditure for the Crossrail construction?

4. Are the promoters of Crossrail telling the truth on each and every aspect of their Crossrail attack on our community in the Brick Lane Area in the East End of London?
[And many more questions and evidence which I shall be publishing in updated forms and versions shortly on these pages] ’
