The poverty level in London is concealed from wide view by a consistent ploy adopted by the mainstream media. As usual, the Guardian and the BBC are treating the poorer parts of London as legitimate targets for further attacks. Hence their blanket coverage of the spin by Livingstone...Whatever fantasy Livingstone says, the BBC gives it the treatment of undisputed fact...
The community in the East End held a very effective demonstration against Education Secretary Alan Johnson last Wednesday. Johnson was stopping at 2 spots, curry houses, as part of the deputy Labour leadership contest in which he is a candidate. But Johnson was forced to confess that he didn't have the evidence to support Crossrail hole .Yet in the House of Commons, Johnson had voted for Crossrail. And he had loudly endorsed it, in words that could only have been scripted by Crossrail hole plan backer Ken Livingstone...
The failure by Alan Johnson to show he knew what he was talking about on Crossrail when he had been voting for it, was a significant piece of evidence showing the shallowness of the Crossrail scheme [just like the Millennium Dome, like the 2012 Olympics Games bid] .
Yet the BBC failed to report or to cover the event.
As the BBC have failed to cover all the demonstrations and campaign actions taking place in the area for over 3 years now against Crossrail.
