Still sounds NIMBY - anyway- what happened to the Londonders?

The majority of people in London are from somewhere else. We are a country many times invaded / visited ( check out the foreign 'royal' family ) and we have the influx of globetrotting fascists here to take a ride in the heart of capitalism. this is theplace to come if you a re rich and/or comnnected and wish to exploit people and planet. ( also see Paris, NY, and other popular destinations which tend to be either cultural and/or financial centres ). who gives a fuck where you come from e.g Brick Lane was very Jewish and |rish at one time - the problem is more of class warfare. the exploiters and exploited, perhaps and has been 'cleansed' before through the process of 'rotting and regeneration'. So now we have Olympic c;leansing as in grease plus the yuppification for the square mile - don't what poor people near the financial cnetre do we ( unless they are guest workers who don't get the irony )

Working in the square mile for the corporations including the banks/traders/consultancies/arms/oil/construction etc is working for the neo colonialsts whatever capacity you are in. This is not a country that produces its food or clothing.

It produces paperwork and profit forecasts. It produces monsters like Mark Moody Stuart who have the barefaced cheek to go on television and shout that BAE Systems is bad for business in Africa. ( yes they should be more subtle when dealing with the psychotic Huse of Saud - MMS's interst is in of course extracting profits from African mines and cheap labpour, stolen land and dealing with corrupt politcos ).;

Onto News stories. why would children have any respect for thieves, liars and murderers claiming this is a democracy and the cowards that voted for you.

The NGOs make a good living poverty pimping ( check out the guardian jobs sections for charities etc )and keeping the status quo faking change fat social workers and a new middle class exploiting multiculturialism at the expense of working class Afro-Caribbeans and Asians alike. These people eg. will split communites along race whilst raiding the local coffers, giving jobs to cronies,msiphonying money intoi private concerns though the implementation of IMF GATS through /PFIand destroying places like Tottenham and Peckham and the much ignored satellite towns that never get a mention and that are just as poor.

Expect more fake statistsics re jobs, health and quality of life.

Expect more money to go into buldsing smaller hospitals with less frontline staff and more mponey ointo private pickets and filthy rich drug dealing GPS who act as a gatekeeper between the patient and treatment whilst ensuring waiting lists are kept down by stopping you getting treated unless you are RICH, matter and will pay.

Why have respect? Destroy the planet and take the piss in a sea of consultants and third rate academics. Reap the soil mutherfuckas. The enemy IS middle class.

this is a non-informative post, and just a rant really. What time is the event taking place? You haven't given any details for anyone else to attend.

The No to Cross rail Hole campaign are all male-chauvanistic, woman haters, who like to sensationalise their dispute with crossrail and the proposed part of the development in Whitechapel, but do so really ineffectively....

I have seen a number of demos held by the campaign against Crossrail hole. I have also seen pictures in the local papers.

Most of the campaign events against Crossrail have been mixed, male and female.

So I am puzzled where the 'woman haters' tag comes from.

As for the campaign being ineffective, I can see that the person, who wrote that, must be insane.

The Khoodeelaar! Campaign has already got the Crossrail Bill backers to drop their tunneling programme that would have gone through Brick Lane and Whitecap. If this is ineffective then I wouldn’t mind seeing a few more similarly 'ineffective' campaigns for the people of the East End.

Quite frankly, I often wonder where some of these people come from, if they are not mechanical devices put in place by the state!

What is your name, 'bd'? Is it short for 'bad'? Is that why you're coy?

Could you perhaps be one of those racists who are too thick to see the unique, very valuable and socially inclusive and politically representative work that the campaign against crossrail hole has done for ALL people of ALL ethnic, cultural, nationality, racial, religious backgrounds in the borough?

You wouldn't. by any chance, be the idiot who racistly insulted and tried to provoke the Khoodeelaar! campaign organiser on Sunday 22 January 2006 within minutes of the end of the huge anti-Crossrail, Khoodeelaar! public meeting held at the Brady Centre in the Hanbury Street, off Brick Lane?

Did the over 1000 people who turned up to support the Khoodeelaar! campaign come across as being hostile to women? If so, how did they do so?

Did they come across as anti-women by being opposed to injustice?

By their demand that an unnecessary, unwanted attack on the whole community was to be stopped by the whole community?

Does being opposed to injustice amount to being 'anti-women'? Is 'anti-women' now the catchphrase of all racists who are unable to find real evidence with which to undermine people of Asian background, which is what you are in effect describing the Khoodeelaar! movement and its leadership to be?

Could it be that you are part of that psychological, psychotic cyber-gang operated by spying outfits in this country?


Is that why your phraseology is acutely similar to that employed by your co-racists when they too joined in the fray and mounted an equally irrational, blindly racist attack on the people who were opposing the filming of the Monica Ali pro-racist ‘book’ promoted in the name of Brick Lane back in July 2006?


Back to the events of Sunday 22 January 2006:

And you did not sit outside the Brady Centre on 22 January 2006 when the Khoodeelaar! Organiser was given absolutely unanimous backing on the motion which he put to the meeting in his keynote speech that Tower Hamlets Council must pass a No to CrossRail hole bill COUNCIL MOTION at FULL COUNCIL

Type "Monica Ali" into Indymedia's Scroogle facility. Note the similarlity in the stlye and wording between many of the anti-Crossrail articles and the articles by Islamic conservatives attacking Monica Ali.

There may not be a link, but the styles are awfully similar. I will happily accept my mistake if it can be proven there is no connection.

Oh and no, I don't think that the Crossrail scheme is a good thing either, but I don't like Islamist bigots either.

Note the 'observer' comments against 'islamic' 'conservative' ' bigots'

And read Polly Toynbee and her likes!

And notice the frightening similarity between them in their racism. Their assumption that Muslim name system equals bigots equals anti-woman equals no entitlement to think freely, let alone to speak for the whole community...

No wonder that the racists' products as is seen in the brand they are manufacturing called 'Monica Ali' are so devoid of any identity with the community that the Khoodeelaar! Campaign has been speaking in defence of and has been defending.

Notice also the similarity of language, thought and ideas between the BNP, National Front - and the Guardian's many 'accomplished writers, columnists. INCLUDING the openly racist John Torode, Martin Walker, and Melanie Phillips.

Now, add Martin Kettle, who once pretended to be almost civilised -when he feigned, with his then ‘co-author’ [!], Lucy Hodges, to want to learn about the evil racist past that had caused the British state apparatus to create the sort of deep deprivation that led to the 1981 and similar outbreaks of protest and violent self defence by the mainly African [West Indies- Caribbean] descended ‘youths’ across South London and elsewhere in England and see where he is today.

Kettle is now raging in the same racist ignorance ‘and proud of it’ that has disgraced the name ‘Guardian’[ of the Trust that ‘founded’ it] when taken by such ‘perfect’ racists like James Cameron [who decried the presence of ‘foreigners’ in Oxford Street where he claimed English was not spoken any more, as far as he could hear or see]!!

The Guardian group has completed the cycle and has found its racist roots – or at least the racist roots of most of its ‘writers and editors’ of the past 50 years with the role that the ‘Observer’ has played in openly egging on all the anti-Muslim racists.

When the Guardian lies, it does that with practised prevaricatory language.

It wants to board both vehicles, going in opposite directions.

Just like the pathetic poster calling itself ‘observer’.

But it stays stuck in the filth of racist evil which it harbours with wanton backwardness.

Like the evil, crass ignorance that lies at the centre of the idiotic Crossrail hole plot against the Brick Lane and the Whitechapel London E1 Area!

The Khoodeelaar! Campaign exists to defend the COMMUNITY!

That defence includes the defence of the culture, the history of the community!

That is why it has been so effective, educational and interesting.

It is the longest running such campaign anywhere in the UK today.

How?

No other campaign has lasted as long and addressed the specific legislative programme in the way that Khoodeelaar! has been doing.

And as a side product, the unmasking of the core racist morons who keep creeping up with their multiple manifestations of centuries old backwardness and lack of knowledge, Khoodeelaar! has also become a vital liberator for the community. From the racist bigots and criminals that have hindered the community’s resistance and allowed Big Business to get foothold after foothold before it took over huge chunks of the East End.

Like the Isle of Dogs!

To take one example.. There are hundreds of others..

Crossrail shall not PASS the hole plot at the expense of the East End of London!

Is it me or are all the responses by supporters written by the same person, so much for the massive grass roots movement!

...just so you got that clear. Cue accusations of working of working for MI5 - again something that is truth only in the minds of paranoid freaks.

But now to the rant that followed my earlier comment.

"Note the 'observer' comments against 'islamic' 'conservative' ' bigots'

And read Polly Toynbee and her likes!

Don't know anything about Polly Tonybee to comment about her, but kindly point out where I said that Muslims = bigots = anti woman. It's the conservative and bigoted elements that I dislike within that religion, but that goes for all organised religion.

"No wonder that the racists' products as is seen in the brand they are manufacturing called 'Monica Ali' are so devoid of any identity with the community that the Khoodeelaar! Campaign has been speaking in defence of and has been defending."

So you are linked with the anti Monica Ali campaign then. Nice to have cleared that one up.

"Notice also the similarity of language, thought and ideas between the BNP, National Front - and the Guardian's many 'accomplished writers, columnists. INCLUDING the openly racist John Torode, Martin Walker, and Melanie Phillips."

Nice to see that Godwin's Law still holds true. They may possible be right-wing idiots, but comparing them to fascists and Nazis is just resulting to petty insults.

"The Guardian group has completed the cycle and has found its racist roots – or at least the racist roots of most of its ‘writers and editors’ of the past 50 years with the role that the ‘Observer’ has played in openly egging on all the anti-Muslim racists.

I am not keen on the Guardian either, best to take any mainstream media source with a pinch of salt. Nor do I like the anti-terror laws that are used harrass anyone who gets in the way of the Establishment (Muslim or otherwise). But if you want real incitment to attack Muslims, try the Sun (aka the Scum) or the Daliy Hate Mail.

"The Khoodeelaar! Campaign exists to defend the COMMUNITY!"

I wonder how many people in this "community" think that. You are the only one I have encountered in all my time on Indymedia, albeit in different guises, such as "Bethnal Green and Bow constitutent", "bricklane area resident" "Bethnal Green visitor", and "hanbury street shop owner", your same style of ranting makes you easy to spot

"It is the longest running such campaign anywhere in the UK today."

I doubt that. People have been defending communities from things far worse than Crossrail for centuries.

Oh and BTW, the fact you keep on putting up these rants without providing the facts to back them up (in other words explaining EXACTLY what this "Crossrail hole" is and why its such bad news for the community) is only serving to discredit your campaign, and even if Crossrail is as bad news as you say it is, people are just going to be put off and think you are just another clueless, paranoid NIMBYist. The same goes for trying to pass yourself off as several people at once.
