The case against CrossRail hole plot Bill has always been that it is a crassly conceived project. That it is being sued as a giant Trojan horse by Bog Business and contractors to loot £billions from the UK public under cover of improving transport in London. The hundreds of inaccuracies , fabrications, contradictions as still contained in the promotional assertions and plugs for CrossRail, have been exposed over the past 3 years plus by the Khoodeelaar! campaign. But newer lies are being told. Today's r plug for Crossrail , posted on the Guardian web site allegedly as a report on the Blair party's deputy leadership contenders is the latest, and the most drastic act of lying Crassly for Crossrail
