Big Business Crossrail hole assaults-inviting Tower Hamlets Council in poverty-budget trading permission link!

As KHOODEELAAR! pointed out yesterday [Monday 11 August 2008], the siting of the £5 notes-only bank machine at a location in the 'most deprived borough in the country' Tower Hamlets, had to have - and indeed had a significant amount to dow with the Crossrail hole plot-inviting Council. The evidence of this being so is found in the details of the same as released by the company ...

Tower Hamlets is the 'local authority' that has given the planning permission for the machine to be started in the Roman Road...

Then there is the poverty link, of course.

The propaganda says that credit crunch is relevant to their apparently booming trade in downsizing accessibility to amounts of cash

And then there is the ‘area’ where ‘management of smaller sized cash’; would ‘benefit’ the people!

The word ‘benefit’ is reminiscent of the poverty-adding Crossrail hole agenda.

The hype says that ‘Crossrail would bring benefits’...

We continue toe expose the Crossrail hole plotters’ lies at the expense of the community in the hole-targeted East End of London

"£5 Note Only" cash machine installed to help customers beat the credit crisis

12/08/2008

A cash machine that only offers £5 notes has been installed in East London in order to help customers manage their budgets better.

Instead of offering the usual £10 and £20 notes, the ATM on Roman Road in Bow only offers fivers. Unveiled yesterday by Bank Machine, the ATM has no charges, and is intended to be the first of many.

"We’re delighted to be able to launch this cash machine in Tower Hamlets, and are in the process of identifying around 20 more suitable sites both across London and the other major cities in the UK," explained Ron Delnevo, managing director of Bank Machine.

"Busy sites in areas where we believe consumers would benefit from managing their budgets with smaller denominations are top of the list, but we do need local authorities’ support," he said. "We’re looking forward to working with them to secure planning permission which will enable our national network of fiver-only ATMs to happen.”

Last month, Bank Machine, the UK's fastest growing ATM network, launched the Fight For Fivers campaign, with the aim of getting five pound notes back into circulation and is looking to make partnerships with site owners in locations where £5 notes might be most in demand by consumers.

Recent research revealed that there are not enough £5 notes in the UK and as a result, the campaign has been endorsed by the Bank of England. Andrew Bailey, Chief Cashier at the Bank of England, said: "£5 notes have a vital part to play in the UK purchasing chain and I welcome this initiative by Bank Machine to give easier access to these notes in key ATM locations throughout the UK."

Bank Machine believes that getting fivers back into circulation will be of "huge benefit to both consumers and retail businesses alike," making those ATMs that do offer £5 notes more attractive to customers and helping those customers to budget more effectively.

"Our campaign is particularly timely given the current credit crunch, as many people feel more able to manage their finances by spending cash," explained Mr Delnevo, "£5 notes will allow them to be even more careful in keeping their spending down."

Bank Machine created the UK's independent ATM market ten years ago and now has 2,500 cash machines throughout the country. It began by installing pay-to-use cash machines in convenient locations but has since built a free-to-use network – which already includes more than 500 ATMs in locations such as NHS hospitals, military bases and low-income areas.

KHOODEELAAR! constitutional law commentary and update against the UK Department for Crossrail hole agenda

This is prompted by a strange and indecipherable e-mail received from Ruth kelly's Department. Strange because it has no name. Indecipherable because it could not be even opened. part of the CRASSness of the Crossrail hole DfT is that they never communicate straight. They never tell it straight. It is a bent line, off-line, off the rail...... CRASSrail...


The KHOODEELAAR! constitutional law commentary and update against the UK Department for Crossrail hole agenda, as fronted by Ruth Kelly [who has followed Douglas Alexander who had followed Alistair Darling as the occupant of the Crossrail hole in the Department for Transport!!!]

KHOODEELAAR! is still waiting for Ruth Kelly to answer ALL outstanding Questions about Crossrail hole agenda that the KHOODEELAAR! campaign has put to the UK Department for Transport, starting in February 2004. That is, starting well before the actual formal presentation of the ‘Crossrail Bill’ in the UK House of Commons by Alistair Darling on 22 February 2005.

KHOODEELAAR! has put up with the DfT bureaucracy stalling.
And stalling.
And stalling.
And then lying.
And then provoking with more lies and illegalities.
KHOODEELAAR! has said all along that one main lawful way the campaign against the Big Business Crossrail hole plot would be - and will-be conducted would be through the application of the constitutional law. KHOODEELAAR! is now preparing court papers to seek the constitutional law to be applied against the crassly conceived Crossrail hole plot. The necessary notices of this have been sent to the DfT as well as to the bureaucracies involved in the operation of the stooged select committees on ‘Crossrail’ staged in the two Houses of UK ‘Parliament’.
The DfT bureaucracy, which has been acting as an agency for Big Business interests on Crossrail has shown contempt to constitutionality. As has the bureaucracy at the CLRL itself. This is not surprising. Accountability via or in Parliament,nt is not a norm in the UK. Nor has it been in the case of the Ken CROSSRAIL hole plot-peddler Livingstone-occupied London assembly.

As illustrated by Livingstone's notorious outburst against one session of the London Assembly which Livingstone denounced for daring to ask questions of Livingstone over his then latest scandalised behaviour


The result is that ALL the questions, all the flaws, all the defects, all the damages that Crossrail hole plot raises, contains and causes will now be put to the UK domestic court for the relevant scrutiny and examination as part of the KHOODEELAAR! constitutional law challenge to the Crossrail hole plot legislation.

By legislation is here meant the pre and the post ‘Bill’ conduct, purpose and repercussions and implications as well.

It goes without saying that the ‘CROSSRAIL BILL’ will be the centre of the challenge....

Most of those issues could and should have been attended to by the sitting or the existing ‘Secretary of State’ at the DfT.

The evidence shows that this has not been done.
The fact that it has not been done will be cited as evidence of the deliberate policy of defiance of the constitutional obligations by the UK Secretary of State for Transport at the given time.

At all the given times.

Muhammad Haque rebuts CBI Crassrail hole plot propaganda on a London daily

You have predictably fallen into the trap set by the CBI propaganda. Who are the CBI? What do they care about education? Let alone for education for society? And when did they ever do? Education is not the same as skills. Education is wider than skills. Please make the distinction. And then look at the facts. And then opine. The latest CBI propaganda has been released to aid Big Business plot for Crossrail. "Good pupils' are not just pupils are they? And what about the plain., ordinary pupils? Who is to address their futures? So many issues, forces and contradictions are involved in the current downward moving UK economy that people are not thinking first before uttering solutions. You cannot solve the problems without looking at the causes. And Blair accentuated the causes before he committed the crimes thus leaving society where so many youngsters are seeking fulfilment so readily in so much violence...What have the CBI to say on any of that? And you should know better than to repeat the crassness of the CBI.

The above comment has been published in the last few minuets on the London INDEPENDENT web site. The word 'Crossrail' has appeared in error as 'Corral'

The "science in crisis" alarm bell is being rung at increasingly regular intervals these days. The latest organisation to do so is the Confederation of British Industry, which complains that there are not enough scientists graduating to meet the needs of industry.

So is there really a crisis, or is this just a case of special pleading by a particular sector of the economy? As convenient as it would be to write the alarm off as special pleading, it is hard to deny the force of the CBI's argument.

A decline in science teaching and practice has national strategic implications for Britain. Economic success in the modern world is far less dependent on a country's natural resources, and owes much more to the skills and expertise of its population. When one considers the challenges of the coming decades for Britain, from developing renewable energy technologies, to designing greener transport networks, the economic value of trained scientists becomes clear.

Our open economy has been able to cope with the shortage of science graduates so far by hiring them from abroad. But there may well come a time when these workers find the pull of home stronger. It would be short-sighted to ignore our domestic scientific skills base.

A vicious circle is at work in our education sector. A recent report from the University of Buckingham found that almost a quarter of secondary schools in England no longer have specialist physics teachers. Such shortages mean that the sciences are being less well taught in schools and fewer students are pursuing them at university as a result. The pressures get worse at university. Those bright scientists who make it that far are highly sought after by the financial services sector, which pays high salaries for their skills. The City of London benefits, but it means Britain gets fewer science teachers and working scientists.

The CBI is urging the Government to require all capable teenagers to take three separate science subjects in secondary school, rather than combined science qualifications. The Government seems amenable. It is promising that, from September, good students will be "entitled" to study triple science. Yet ministers should be more radical. The dire condition of science teaching strengthens the argument for moving to a baccalaureate system in secondary examination. Children in England are channelled too early into making a binary choice between the humanities and the sciences in the narrow A-level system.

It is difficult to identify any easy solution. Children cannot be forced into the sciences in the way that they were in the old Soviet Bloc, or pressured into them for the greater glory of the motherland by an authoritarian government, such as in modern China. But simply because such methods are not available to us, our response should not be to give up. Greater financial inducements should be made available for graduates to train as teachers or scientists. These sums will never compete with the City salaries, but they should help to make the sector more attractive. And there is scope for top graduates to teach for a few years before going on to do something more lucrative. The success of the Education Department's Teach First scheme shows the potential of such arrangements.

The business sector should also be encouraged to do more, too, in the form of university department bursaries and sponsorship schemes for students. After all, it is the business world which stands to lose most of all if our national scientific knowledge base continues to be depleted. If we are to restore science to pride of place in the British education system, all need to play their part.
