KHOODEELAAR! Told OXFORD MAIL in September 2007 that the then still unconfirmed candidate Boris Johnson was talking utter CRASS on CRASSrail….

Muhammad Haque, London says...

To quote your report on Boris Johnson's
launch of his London mayor candidature
“a firm commitment to the CrossRail link
from Paddington to Liverpool Street”

This is even more bizarre than all the
other bizarre things we have identified
in what we have called the 'CRASSrail'
project.
Have the promoters of the CrossRail
scheme already conceded that the
scheme is CRASS and have curtailed it.
We thought that the current CROSSRAIL
BILL was about a line that went as far
as Shenfield in Essex and farther to the
West of Paddington, at east to
Heathrow!
We knew that Boris Johnson had
changed his positions on things in the
past.
But this must be a first: changing
the length of the Crossrail line and
leaving out Heathrow even before he
has been formally adopted and
announced a Party candidate.
At this rate, there may still be hope of getting
rid of the CRASSrail altogether, so
fundamentally flawed. And on this basis,
we can back the campaign for Boris
Johnson as mayor...hoping that by the
time that the polling date is upon us, he
will have waffled away the office of
mayor of London too, thus saving the
people of London.. so much waste of
time, resource and energy that the
expensive ego-promotion project of
having a mayor has entailed...

Crossrail Bill campaign
