Bethnal Green and Bow MP George Galloway has said that there is no need fort a Crossrail station at Whitechapel. Why? Because Transport for London already have a scheduled refurbishment programme for Whitechapel in a couple of years time. This exposed that the local Tower Hamlets council has been involved in secret Crossrail -Whitechapel station plot against The East End!
Tower Hamlets council in secret Crossrail -Whitechapel station plot against The East End
1. Campaigning group KHOODEELAAR! [The Brick Lane London E1 Area campaign against the Crossrail hole plan-project Bill] has today disclosed that the ‘excuse’ for digging a Crossrail hole in the Brick Lane Area has been deliberately brought onto the East End by the London Borough of Tower Hamlets Council.
2. It has emerged that the ‘reason’ for the inclusion in the Crossrail Bill [now in the UK parliament] for powers to dig a devastating and anti-social Crossrail hole in the Brick Lane Area is linked more with the ADDED plan for a Crossrail space around the present Whitechapel Station and stretching almost as far as the present Bethnal Green underground station than with any ‘engineering inevitability’ factor. That is, the claim that the ‘main Crossrail line would require a Crossrail hole to be dug in the Brick Lane, London E1` area and that the Crossrail line would be inoperable without a hole being dug in the Brick Lane area, is exposed as the lie that campaigners have always insisted it was.
3. This news comes hot in the hills of the disclosure at the weekend by local Bethnal Green and Bow MP George Galloway that Transport for London themselves had a scheduled refurbishment programme for the Whitechapel station, to be carried out in two years time anyway. This means that there is no justification whatever for digging the hole in the E1 area. Or, as the MP George Galloway said when he reiterated his total support for the KHOODEELAAR campaign against the Crossrail hole anywhere else in the Borough of Tower Hamlets.
