Respect backs Brick Lane campaign against Crossrail hole

George Galloway's RESPECT coalitioin has today confirmed its backing to the campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill. They also vow to scrap any agreement the Tower Hamlets Council may have made for the Crossrail assault on the local community if RESPECT win control of Tower Hamlets Council at the scheduled May 2006 local election

Muhammad Haque the founder and Honorary coordinator of Khoodeelaar the Brick Lane London E1 Area campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill has today received a statement from the Respect coalition, the political grouping of the local MP George Galloway, vowing to scrap ‘any agreement’ for Crossrail plan made by the current Tower Hamlets Council.

The statement is the first one made to KHOODEELAAR about the Crossrail hole since George Galloway was elected MP at the 5 May 2005 general election.

Galloway’s predecessor, Oona King, as MP for the Bethnal Green and Bow Constituency in which the Brick Lane London E1 Area is, had repeatedly failed to take up the advice that KHOODEELAAR gave her to identify with the campaign against the Crossrail assault.

The sum total of her ‘position statements’ on the Crossrail assault on the community was identical to what Tower Hamlets Council ‘leader’ Michael Keith has been plugging on the issue.

[More on that in our later bulletins today]

At a meeting held in the Toynbee Hall in Commercial Street in 2004, Oona King stated that community opposition to the Crossrail hole plan would decrease if Crossrail promoters had made clearer the benefits that Crossrail would bring to the area!

Clearly Oona King had been operating on the assumption that the local community were intellectually deficient and were thus unable to grasp the full implications of the Crossrail violations plan against the community in the East End!

In their communication to KHOODEELAAR today, George Galloway’s RESPECT coalition have confirmed a diametrically opposite position to that shown by Oona King.

The RESPECT coalition state to KHOODEELAAR:
“Were we to take control of the council in May we will tear up any agreement written or verbal made by the current council and use all the resources at our disposal to inform the people who live and work in Tower Hamlets of the threat Crossrail poses and to block those proposals”

Oona King a joke as an MP but was great at supporting warmongering Blairite

29.01.2006 14:52

Low life Oona King, warmongering supporter must never return to East End

Oona King held the constituents of Brick Lane in contempt - she assumed that anything she thought should be adopted without any contradiction from local people when this did not occur she resorted to calling the youth of Brick Lane ignorant, Bangladeshi people racist, left wing people discriminatory towards her sex - the last bastion of this scoundrel was to use her religion Judaism to claim that people were racist even though she had been voted in three times before. MPa who do not care what their consituents think need to be shamed and ousted and embarrassed publicly at every opportunity.

Blair must have been a big fan of Oona King given that he came to support her no less than four times and even his money grabbing wife Cherie Blair came along once. She presently runs an organisation called Thancs rewriting her revisionist history of her time as an MP that did little or nothing to support the problems of her elected area. If anyone wants to know why the young and poor do not vote - use this woman as an example.

The following is the texty of the KHOODEELAAR 'opportunity to comment' communication sent [Sunbday 29 january 2006] to Tower Hamlets Council Lib Dem member Louise Alexander

Dear Ms Alexander

Re Your statement at the meeting on Crossrail – Brady Centre 22 January 2006

Khoodeelaar is preparing its report on the campaign meeting held at the Brady centre on Sunday 22 January 2006 at which you spoke.

We would like to give you this opportunity to state what you and your party have done to identify with the community's demand against the Crossrail hole. Please include any web links that would take us to the texts of any historical pieces that you and or your party on tower hamlets council have published prior to 22 January 2006.

Our researches have shown that your party's spokespeople on the Greater London Assembly and in the UK House of Commons have not made any comment or statement that can be legitimately interpreted as being identical to our community's demand as expressed emphatically in the ultimatum which I moved and which was agreed by the meeting on Sunday 22 January 2006.

Please tell us in what particualr/s you may disagree on the facts.

Will George Galloway be doing any cat impressions?

30.01.2006 13:47

Will 'sleazy' George bring along any of his big brother mates? how about faria alam, sven goran eriksons former lover and of bangladeshi origin? This would doubtless increase his credibility with the people of the east end, especially bangladeshi muslims...

pervy politician
