Crossrail hole plot-inviting East London Council admits to shafting community

Khoodeelaaronline against London Crossrail | 12.09.2007 01:29 | Anti-racism | Social Struggles | London

For nearly 4 years the Khoodeelaar! Campaign had been saying that Tower Hamlets Council had been a tout for Big Business Crossrail hole plot .

But there was no written proof in so many words.

For nearly 4 years the Khoodeelaar! Campaign had been saying that Tower Hamlets Council had been a tout for Big Business Crossrail hole plot .

But there was no written proof in so many words.

Until after 1845 Hrs GMT on Tuesday 11 September 2007 when the Khoodeelaar! campaign organiser Muhammad Haque was presented with the very written words!

In a written answer [!] to a Question put to the full Council by Muhammad Haque under the Tower Hamlets Council’s agenda item ‘Questions submitted by members of the public’ [Agenda Item No 6] demanding to know why the Council had failed to pass the unequivocal NO to CrossRail hole Bill motion that the community had asked the Council to pass, Tower Hamlets Council’s Crossrail hole plot-backing controlling bureaucracy offered ‘as a reason’ their ‘consistent’ ‘support’ of the ‘principle of Crossrail’ as follows:


“ Ultimately, Council must respect Crossrail’s overreaching duty to have regard to the paramount importance of the health and safety of Crossrail passengers and workers which will dictate the location of such shafts.”

The word shaft is also a many-faceted confirmation of Tower Hamlets Council’s confession to being a touting agency for the Big Business CrossRail.

The community calls these planned assaults as ‘Crossrail holes’.

In other words, the Tower Hamlets Council is admitting at last that it has been saying to the community affected by Crossrail hoe attacks
To ‘get shafted’!

[To be continued]


But the Council tends to use the word shaft, as used by Crossrail and as including Shafting the community in favour of the Crossrail hole plotters.

The full reports on Muhammad Haque’s presentation of his Question to the Crossrail hole plot-touting Tower Hamlets Council will be published on the Internet during the day [Wednesday 12 September 2007] and on Thursday 13 September 2007
