KHOODEELAAR! updating the evidence of the pro-Big Business role played by Lib Dem 'MP' Lynne Featherstone...and her reference to 'a rotten borough'..

Et tu, Lynne Featherstone! Be careful what you say about 'a rotten borough..'!

I would not wish to deny Lynne Featherstone [the Lib Dem MP in the UK House of commons - currently visible on the mainstream UK media as a Haringey area MP] the unusually high intensity media platforms that she has been occupying around the tragedy of the Child P ‘revelations’. But for the sake of balance, it is important to remind Ms Fathertsone of the ignorant record she has on democratic issues. I am here referring to Lynne Featherstone’s blog in which she uses the phrase ‘a rotten borough’ Especially about ‘rotten boroughs’. The truth is that Lynne Featherstone has been one of those BACKERS of rotten boroughs.. may be not in Haringey, where she has an understandable ELECTORAL and CAREERISTS ‘reason’ to be seen to be with the community’ rather than with the Council.. But across London, she has played as antidemocratic a role as any that could be found in the ‘political;l conduct and behaviour’ of those in the ranks of the so-called ‘opposite’ parties. Lynne Featherstone is a typical timeserving politico...NOTHING that she has said about Haringey Council’s failures comes anywhere near what NEEDS to be said. What must be said. ASt all relevant times. Which means throughout the life times of every child. Every adult. Everyone who is in ned of service by local authorities...And why did her Lib Dem colleague, a Haringey councillor, waste no time before expressing his ‘gratitude’ at Ed Balls’ announcement of the ‘special investigation’? NOT very surprising. The Lib Dems on the GLA, TYPIFIED at the time by Lynne Featherstone, went as far as their backbones and spinal cords could stand [these are political images], to bend WHICHEVER WAY to accommodate the CRASS agenda for CROSSRAIL that the lying Livingstone was fronting at the time.….It was Lynne Featherstone herself who brayed in her ‘outraged’ impatience at Brown’s delay IN MAKING THE FUNDING COMMITMENTS TO CROSSRAIL.. Lynne Featherstone was not only a puppet in the garb of elected politician for Big Business when she peddled Crossrail so persistently, she was a transparently, visibly, audibly and legibly ill-informed and therefore irresponsible one........ Just like Tom Brake, her colleague in the House of commons. Between the two of them, they have behaved [in the peddling roles for crossrail] like the puppets that Chris Huhne has been appearing to deride in his rarely-witnessed animated participation on behalf of the 'violated' preserve of the house of parliament and the sanctity of the MPs.……The Lib Dems must cohere and show courage and do so collectively and consistently and always. AND THEY MUST prioritise the truth as the ‘service’ they perform to the electorate and to the ‘parliament’.. Otherwise they too will sink in the hole that cowardice, prevarication, immorality, opportunism and lack of real honesty in political posts bring.……. CRASSrail is very much the handiwork of King Canute... the imagery that Vince Cable evoked at Gordon Brown’s expense... in his [Cable’s] short outing on the Politics Show today.… Does Lynne Fatherstone belong with Vince Cable or does she pine for the ‘good old days’ under the lying influence of Cable’s co-appearee, Ken Livingstone???
