Bricxk Lane London E1 Area ultimatum to Tower Hamlets Council on Crossrail hole

CBRUK / KHOODEELAAR | 23.01.2006 12:58 | Analysis | Social Struggles | London | World

The Brick Lane London E1 Area campaign was supported by more than a thousand people last night who turned up to attend the KHOODEELAAR campaign meeting held in the Hanbury Street to say no to the Crossrail hole Bill now in the UK House of Commons. The campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill gave a most emphatic democratic ultimatum to the controlling group on the local Tower Hamlets Council to represent the community’s opposition to the Crossrail hole scheme.
The community demand was the implementation of the first

The Brick Lane London E1 Area campaign against the Crossrail hole Bill on Sunday got a step closer to getting the local Tower Hamlets Council to represent the community’s opposition to the Crossrail hole scheme.

The community passed a unanimous motion to demand that Tower Hamlets Council
pass a full and unequivocal resolution of the full Council demanding the dropping of the Crossrail hole/tunnel/shaft provision from the Crossrail Bill now in the UK Parliament.

The meeting held at the Brady Centre in the Hanbury Street was too small for the more than 1000 people who turned up to attend it. Hundreds had to be regretfully turned away by organisers who kept their word to the community that the meeting would make the very practical and clear demand to the local council.

The demand has now been sent to the Tower Hamlets Council’s chief executive Christine Gilbert.

Dear Ms Gilbert


Khoodeelaar THE BRICK LANE LONDON E1 AREA CAMPAIGN AGAINST CROSSRAIL HOLE BILL – public meeting held at the Brady Centre in the Hanbury Street London E1 on Sunday 22 January 2006 - COMMUNITY DEMAND ON TOWER HAMLETS COUNCIL TO PASS UNEQUIVOCAL RESOLUTION OF THE FULL COUNCIL TO OPENLY OPPOSE THE CROSSRAIL TUNNEL/HOLE/SHAFT IN THE BRICK LANE LONDON E1 AREA

This is the first transmission of the demand to you. Further details and background information will follow soon after this.

This is a legal and constitutional communication. A copy of the same is being sent to you by SPECIAL DELIVERY POST

The key demand was unanimously and emphatically agreed by the meeting on the single motion moved by the keynote speaker Mr Muhammad Haque to say that The London Borough of Tower Hamlets Council must hold a meeting within the next 14 days [from Sunday 22 January 2006] and to pass a full Council resolution demanding the dropping of the Crossrail hole/tunnel/shaft provision from the Crossrail Bill now in the UK Parliament.

That the resolution must be passed by the same LBTH Council in such a way and on a such a date and with such wording that leaves no room for equivocation and that it is put to the UK parliament by bearing in mind that the transport select committee set up to ‘scrutinize’ the Crossrail Bill is now sitting for a limited period and that the LBTH Council itself has a petition awaiting the formal consideration of the said transports elect committee and that the relevant resolution by LBTH Council opposing the hole scheme/plan must be put in order to ensure that the said select committee and any other constitutional part of the UK parliament takes full account of the srse and that the resolution is worded in such a way that leaves no room for any constitutional, legal or procedural conflict, contradiction or excuse or pretext to be invoked or used to frustrate or delay or divert or distort the community’s opposition to the Crossrail - hole plan/scheme in the Brick Lane London e1 Area - Bill.

That the LBTH Council resolution opposing the locating of the hole/tunnel must be put to or presented to or sent to or made constitutionally validly available to the UK parliament and to the Crossrail hole Bill promoters without delay and in any case not later than 13 days after the community unanimously making the demand at 1830 Hrs GMT on Sunday 22 January 2006.
