Khoodeelaar! Continuing to rebut John Denham’s corrupting, poverty-creating move.
We also reject the CPGB daily the Morning Scar’s shallowness on this. Although we have recognised the fact that they too are against what Denham announced on Friday [13 November 2009] about funding local Councils under the false banner of reducing poverty and deprivation, we find the Morning Scar as ignorant on the whole package as the Scar has been on all major political events in the UK throughout its turgid history.
Why we are spending space on ‘attacking’ the ‘only daily newspaper of the Left’ in Britain?
Answer: For that precise reason.
If indeed it is the only daily newspaper of the Left in Britain then that newspaper has got to be of high standard.
But the Morning Scar does not have standards.
Far less high ones.
It is, in its own turgid corner just as backward and ignorant as all its less frequently published ‘rivals’ are [and have been and appear condemned to remain] in the other parts of the alleged left trading in Britain today in THEIR turgid corners, bunkers and holes.
It follows that today’s edition [as written and dated on 13 November 2009] of the Morning Scar fails to expose John Denham’s corrupting package.
One additional reason underlying the Morning Scar’s abyssal conduct may not be all that distant from the fact that Harriet has now set up Her Man, Jack Dromey to hopefully join the likes of Denham in the UK House of Commons. There is no likelihood in a million years of the CPGB Morning Scar even noticing this sort of abuse. In fact the Morning Scar is probably constructing a profile of Jack Dromey that will show him as a truly liberating breath of fresh air in the UK House of Commons if he is allowed to arrive there after an election ..[To be continued] [Continuing the updater report on the Crossrail holes agenda activities in ‘Bethnal Green South’ and ion Stepney]: Khoodeelaar! Demonstrated against Crossrail holes -inviter Tower Hamlets Council on Wednesday 01 March 2006. Now, in November 2006, and almost 4 years later, there is still the threat of Crossrail holes. This time the threat is in Whitechapel and Stepney. As we have been saying these past few days. Anyone who wants to 'remain' a councillor in these wards, has got to come out and say that they are against Crossrail holes policy of Tower Hamlets Council; they've got to mean that ‘No’, too.

Cash for councils a 'sinister' initiative
Friday 13 November 2009 by John Millington Printable Email
Housing campaigners and left economists on Friday condemned a "sinister" government initiative which ties financial sanctions against the unemployed into its latest aid package.
Communities Secretary John Denham claimed that the funding of £40 million, which will be spread among 61 local authorities, would help up to 70,000 families.
But Mr Denham also warned that the new government proposals would see tenants "risk financial sanctions like losing benefits" if they did not take up job offers.
Mr Denham wants to use social landlords including housing associations as "a doorway" for council-led agency interventions to convince people they can be better off financially in work.
Despite unemployment figures topping nearly 2.5million with only 428,000 vacancies in the economy, the Cabinet minister admitted that the priority was to "reduce the burden placed on state dependency."
LEAP coordinator Andrew Fisher said the proposals had "sinister" connotations and called on the government to increase benefits.
"Housing is a right, and should not be contingent upon jumping through the latest hoops set by ministers," he said.
"Rather than its ongoing obsession with portraying the unemployed as a feckless mob who need sanctioning, the government should increase the appallingly low level of benefits to give people the dignity they deserve when unemployed."
A Defend Council Housing spokesman said he did not believe that housing associations were best placed to assist people in finding work.
"We have heard all this before," he exclaimed.
"The whole notion of this policy rests on flawed assumptions that all council housing tenants don't work, when many do."
"Council tenants or social housing tenants want authorities to focus on providing clean and safe housing for them and their families."
The spokesman called on the government to instead use the money to fulfil its manifesto commitment to provide a decent home for all by 2010.
"There are 5 million people on the council waiting lists. There are thousands of acres of undeveloped land. Given the housing crisis, it is a no brainer," he added.
The extra investment has been earmarked for councils who have among some of the country's highest unemployment rates and deprivation.

KHOODEELAAR! Contextually exposing the culture of corruption in English local Councils: massive £££ pocketed by Chris Harman in Staffordshire
Editor © Muhammad Haque
The row that was witnessed in the council on Thursday 12 November 2009 cannot have been the only one raging across England. Everywhere, ordinary people feel that their local council is the pits of corruption. And lies. People are then told, what John Denham did on Friday, a pack of corrupting lies.
Denham said that inner London councils including Tower Hamlets were being given shares in a £multimillion grant top help the…. Yes… you have guessed it… deprived… And the jobless... That is a sick-making lie.
And Denham should be hauled before the court of the people in inner city East End of London. But he won’t come. Not that he will be asked by the ‘community-leaders’. All the funded leaders are in corruption businesses. And Denham knows that. And he knew that when he was uttering his corrupt complacent spiel for the meeza…

KHOODEELAAR! Contextual 'exclusive' on what the SUNDAY PEOPLE's Nigel Nelson might be saying again for scrapping Crossrail

Editor © Muhammad Haque. Khoodeelaar! Campaign against "the wasteful CrossRail scam..." here publishes a factually constructed account of what one of the ‘Fleet Street’ journalists the BBC News Channel slots in for few minutes every so often to ‘review the papers’ of the following day. It is not easy being slotted in that slot. The fact is the fronter, most often Chris Ekin, is the one that ‘does the reviewing’.
As does any of Ekin’s counterparts. The Fleet Street journalist in question here is Nigel Nelson, the political editor of the weekly Sunday People. He is a rare one in the context of Crossrail scam. For he is the only one in ‘Fleet Street’ who echoed the Khoodeelaar! Campaign and in March this year, said that the Govt could – should - scrap Crossrail [as a number of wasteful ones] to avoid the massive public sector debts [Others, including the ownership-changed London EVENING STANDARD and the ECONIOMIST magazine followed quite a bit after Nigel Nelson’s own column...
We here also refer to the column published in the London EVENING STANDARD on 30 April 2009 by Simon Jenkins. He too called for the scrapping of Crossrail. We have already referred to that item on several contexyal occasions and we will return to it in due course again] …
Little did Nigel Nelson know [when he wrote his first column that had in it a call for scrapping Crossrail] that Gordon Brown would THEN go into deeper debt and plunge Alistair Darkling into a sea of public sector borrowing of unprecedented size and burden…
Neither Nigel Nelson nor the official Opposition in the UK 'Parliament’ could have foreseen just how bad the debts burden was going to be… And being a reasonable craftsman, Nigel Nelson has not discussed the matter in quite the same way that he did that first time. So here is a possible, mild-mannered resumption of what Nigel Nelson might say this weekend:
“I even told how Alistair Darling could spare us the £25,000 debt burden. I published a list of wasteful scams that could be chopped. Crossrail was one.
But alas Alistair Darling would not follow sound advice. He has since shown that he too is heading for the hole.
One much bigger than the Crossrail hole so effectively highlighted by the Khoodeelaar! Campaign of the past 6 years or so... One of these days, I am going to do the unthinkable for ‘Fleet Street’ and actually publish in my own paper SUNDAY PEOPLE the truth about CRASSrail.
I know the diagnostic language is affecting me! I am going to list the things KHOODEELAAR! has been saying about the UK economy.... and show how on each count they’ve been getting it right...”

BLACK HOLE COSTS YOU £25,000
EXCLUSIVE Here's how they might claw it back
By Nigel Nelson Political Editor
Every British taxpayer faces a debt of £25,000 to pay for Alistair Darling's borrowing binge.
New forecasts say the Chancellor needs to splash out £704billion on the nation's credit card over the next five years.
That will leave each taxpayer with a bill equal to the current UK average wage, say economists Ernst & Young.

And it will be FIVE times the amount of debt run up over the last five years, which worked out at just £5,000 per taxpayer.
The predictions from forecasting group the Item Club say Mr Darling will need £180billion this year alone, exceeding his own estimate by £62billion.
They are so significant because the Item Club uses the same forecasting model as the Treasury.
Shadow Chancellor George Osborne said: "This is the worst fiscal mess any British government has created in peacetime.
"Tax receipts have collapsed but there is a great deal of scope for spending restraint."
Lib Dem Treasury spokesman Vince Cable added: "Spending will rise sharply over the coming months as unemployment surges.
"And the steep fall in output will continue to reduce tax revenues."
Last week the International Monetary Fund said the UK will have to borrow 11 per cent of national income this year, the most of all the world's top G7 industrialised nations. Ernst & Young say it will be 1.6 per cent WORSE.
Item Club chief economist Peter Spencer said: "The outlook is bleak. The Chancellor must present an unambiguous plan for restoring the public finances to health.
"We are all going to find ourselves paying a lot more tax once the recovery begins and our children will be paying that tax for a very long time to come."
The researchers say Mr Darling must now pump more cash into manufacturing to save jobs.
In April's Budget he is expected to cut taxes to encourage spending, as The People said last week.
But once the recession is over the Government will have to claw the money back. And we have some suggestions, see right, for doing it.
For instance Mr Darling could RAISE tax by 5p, SCRAP the Crossrail plan for new London train links or SUPPLY school meals free to cut obesity in kids.
Total £704 billion
Raise income tax by 5p £100 billion
Put VAT up to 25 per cent £240 billion
Cancel Trident missile defence £25 billion
Nationalise the banks £44 billion
Health screening for over 20s £75 billion
Trim Government waste £170 billion
Abandon Crossrail project £16 billion
Free school meals to save on obesity £18 billion
Cut civil service pay 1 per cent £7 billion
Scrap widening of M25 £5 billion
Cancel our new aircraft carrier order £4 billion"
