Khoodeelaar! campiagn against Crossrail hole Tower Hamlets Council

©Muhammad Haque | 13.06.2006 09:00 | Social Struggles | London

As the House of Commons 'Select committee' on the 'Crossrail Bill' hears formal presentation of objections from several individuals and local groups in the Brick Lane and Whitechapel area in the Portcullis House, in Westminster, London SW1starting at 1000 Hrs [0900 GMT] today [13 June 2006], the Khoodeelaar! Campaign is gearing up its pressure on the 'new' Tower Hamlets Council, which has been the single most culpable 'democratic entity' that has touted against the local community and has brought upon the Eats End the massive threat of the Crsosrail attacks. The only democratic and constitutional defence of the community should have been a democratically elected body, the local council! Instead, it is the grassroots community based Khoodeelaar! That has had to be established to defend the community against the treachery and betrayal of the Blaired local council! The battle continues!

No to CrossRail-hole Tower Hamlets Council programme Tues 13 June
Khoodeelaar publishes second Motion for the full Council meeting on June 21
On Monday 12 June 2006, Khoodeelaar! The Brick Land and Whitechapel London E1 Area campaign against the Crossrail hole Council delivered the first of a new series of Open Letters to Tower Hamlets councillors. They also included the texts of a draft motion for the full meeting of Tower Hamlets Council scheduled to be held on 21 June 2006.
The demand for Tower Hamlets Council to Say No to CrossRail is the continuation of the demand made by the Khoodeelaar! campaign meeting held on 22 January 2006 which was supported by more than 1000 people who turned up to back the campaign against the CrossRail attack on the Brick Lane London E1 area.
Today’s Khoodeelaar! Campaign activities also include the publication of the latest Khoodeelaar! exposé of the Crossrail-hole-plot backing controlling clique on Tower Hamlets Council – and an updated analysis of that clique’s lies for Crossrail as confirmed before the ‘select committee’ on the ‘Crossrail Bill’.
• The Khoodeelaar! Letter to Tower Hamlets Councillors being published today [Tuesday 13 June 2006] will include the following legal and constitutional points:-
• That Khoodeelaar! will take individual councillors to court – when the series of court actions is commenced as soon as possible after the conclusion of the current formal meetings of the ‘Hosue of Commons Crossrail Bill select committee – and that the key ground against the particular councillors will be their roles in either misleading the community or making misleading communications or comments or statements to or about the community and for the CrossRail hole plan scehgeeme project Bill
a. b. That Khoodeelaar! will support and where necessary initiate the full and comprehensive investigation of electoral fraud and offences that might have been committed at the 4 May 2006 elections.
The idea behind the Khoodeelaar! campaign has been a deeply moral and a highly constitutional one – to apply all the known and commonly perceived concepts of democratic representation by causing all holders of public office in the locality to acknowledge their duties in context and to actively engage in delivering the representation that they are in office to deliver.
In the campaign activities focussing on the Crossrail hole-inviting Tower Hamlets Coucnil, we are today publishing details of the meeting of the Council ‘cabinet’ held on 6 October 2004.
That meeting was observed by over fifteen members of the various local groups opposed to the Crossrail hole plan. During that meeting, the then chair of Tower Hamlets Council’s regeneration committee or the ‘lead member’ for ‘regeneration’ made a number of statements that were described by the CBRUK Central Executive council as misleading.
CBRUK Central wrote to the Council’s chief executive Christine Gilbert putting on the record the organisation’s objections to the statements and role of Michael Keith. Christine Gilbert took her time ands did not reply until late in October 2004. When she did reply, she claimed that the interpretation by CBRUK Central of Michael Keith’s statement/s had been inaccurate.
She asserted that she knew because she was present at the meeting concerned and that she also had seen the minutes of the meeting. When Cbrukcentral asked Gilbert to let them have a copy of the alleged version of the alleged minutes, Gilbert failed to deliver. That failure was not exceptional.
Throughout her time in the post of chief executive – a post she occupied after being eased into it by Michael Keith who had played a decisive role in Gilbert’s appointment to the post for which a better candidate was rejected – Gilbert persistently defied the democratic requirements and let the community stay in the dark about all crucial decisions that he took for the controlling clique. Of all the damaging acts, her role in prompting the Crossrail hole attack on the East End has been the most far-reaching one confirming the Big Business and City of London agenda to uproot the community out of its home and to make the East End ready for takeover
…The Khoodeelaar! movement is here to help defeat that assault and betrayal.
