KHOODEELAAR! had warned against one of the 'local papers' in effect circulating in the East London borough of Tower Hamlets.
The 'in effect circulation in Tower Hamlets' was in itself a sham affair. As AADHIKAROnline pointed out on dozens of occasions in analyses published on our own web sites and on externally controlled web sites, the Newham Recorder was conducting the sham business via a duplicitous sub-title called 'Tower Hamlets Recorder'. It had also been called 'Docklands Recorder'. And a variety of other interim things in between.
On 6 August 2008, the London 'newspaper' the Guardian and the trade sources [Hold the Front Page 11 August 2008] reported [see below and on our side column, for texts and links to external web sites] that the 'Tower Hamlets Recorder' had been shut down. Because of poor circulation. The circulation cited in the releases was a huge figure!!!!!!
It was a total of 350 copies!
Here is the substantive paragraph from 'Hold the Front Page' dated 11 August 2008:
'East London weekly the Tower Hamlets Recorder, an edition of the Newham Recorder which sold 350 copies in its own right, has been merged with the main paper.
'
[See the link in the column to the left, to view the online piece as published by the Guardian dated 6 August 2008]
The way that the 'Tower Hamlets Recorder' carried on lying for CRASSrail hole plot, would not have allowed for the assumption of such a pathetic number of copies! It would suggest at least a few thousand. Like the CURRENT circulation of the [de facto stable-mate of the now-folded 'Tower Hamlets Recorder'] the 'East London Advertiser'.
The East London IDIOTISER is placed by the trade sources as being definitely in the category of titles with circulation [how the ABC - 'the Audit Bureau of Circulation' of newspaper titles] does its business is another interesting subject to which we shall return in due course] under 20,000 copies. But informed observers assert that the actual number of copies is far lower than that.
BOTH the 'Newham Recorder' and the 'East London Idiotiser' are owned by Archant, the outfit that has admitted to losing print titles circulation.. It has been concentrating on other forms and media business. [More on that in due course]
Back to the lies that the NEWHAM RECORDER confected and perpetrated via the 'Docklands Recorder' and the 'Tower Hamlets Recorder' titles in the years of the operation.
The agenda set by the NEWHAM RECORDER is identifiable in the typically ignorant, irrelevant, pastiche and the idiotic output and orientation of Tom Duncan.
Duncan is notoriously ignorant and ill informed and has no record of writing with understanding about East London.
Duncan's 'editorial' stamp on the Newham Recorder 'series' as it was called before the change of ownership, was visible in the contents of the titles that failed to report for the communities as they were.....
The TOWER HAMLETS RECORDER was typical. It carried the NEWHAM RECORDER on the inside 'news pages' while on the front it pretended to be about 'Tower Hamlets'.
That was a weekly insult to all self-respecting people in Tower Hamlets.
We have not noticed anyone publicly pointing out that fabrication.
KHOODEELAAR! Campaign has pointed out and examined the periodic evidence of that.
The insult was aggravated when the same lying title perpetrated and then perpetuated the CrossRail hole plot-peddling lies in a so-called 'specialist' feature carried somewhere on an inside page [around page 13 or 14 or 29, well beyond any 'news' if there was any of any pretence] with the by-line of an alleged specialist transport writer.
They kept on publishing utter rubbish...
The ‘TOWER HAMLETS RECORDER” rubbish was visible even before the actual detailed perpetration was approached......
They published almost all the slogans for CRASSrail that Ken Lyingstill Livingstone ever mouthed. and like Livingstone’s hollow, sham assertions, the 'TOWER HAMLETS RECORDER' too was hollow, a sham affair.
It let the people down. It denied the people the truth. The basic facts. And it did so despite being told by KHOODEELAAR! the relevant facts.
Including the fact that the costs of the CRASSrail hole scam were being dishonestly manipulated by the peddlers... That the costs were being misleadingly cited and quoted at various stages of the promotion of the CRASS CROSSRAIL [=CRASS] scam...
Had the lying 'editorial decision-makers [!!!!!!] the sense, not to speak of respect for the published codes of conduct of journalism [what they!!!?????] 'readers' [all 350 of them] of the 'Tower Hamlets RECORDER" would have come across the basic facts years ago...
And then there was the February 2006 stunt staged by the Crossrail hole plot-inviting corrupt clique on Tower Hopeless Council.
Put under serious campaigning pressure by KHOODEELAAR! [which campaign was being broadcast on at least one satellite TV channel for a good THREE MONTHS - more on that in due course again], the CORRUPT clique on Tower Hamlets CrossRail hole -inviting Council was desperate for a diversion.....
And one was arranged via their then ethnicity-linked bribery and grants-making agenda and scam.... ………..to be staged AWAY from Tower Hamlets and with an appearance that the community in Tower Hamlets was 'happy with the Council' but not 'so happy with parliament' over CRASSrail...
So they staged a stunt.
KHOODEELAAR! boycotted that diversion. For reasons that we explained at length at the time.
The main reason being a contextual; one. That was the role of Tower Hamlets Council on the procedures and on the constitution at that precise moment was the key problem. The role of 'parliament' was not. as the events have proven. and as the evidence was bound to show.
but the diversion was staged for the benefit of the corrupt clique on the CrossRail hole-inviting council.
And what did the 'TOWER HAMLES RECORDER' do?
They lied on the record and to their ‘readers’ in addition to backing the lies as confected by the Crossrail hole plot-inviting Tower Hamlets Council clique itself.
Tower Hamlets RECORDER said that HUNDREDS of people took part in that Council-sponsored stunt and diversion!
NOT EVEN a 100 people were involved!
KHOODEELAAR! pointed out the facts. But the 'Tower Hamlets RECORDER' carried on lying...
They ignored the facts.
They suppressed the truth.
They aggravated the lies.
The event that had hundreds of people presents... the Khoodeelaar! no to 'the CrossRail hole plot-inviting role of the controlling clique on the Tower Hamlets Council....' campaign MASS GATHERING and held in the Hanbury Street, off Brick Lane, London E1 on Sunday 22 January 2006, was manifestly ignored by the lying 'Tower Hamlets Recorder'!
[more updates on that in due course]
[The following AADHIKAROnline piece was originally written and published in the evening of Tuesday 26 August 2008]
The 'Newham Recorder' lying for Big Business and the Blairing pack of post holders on the local and the regional 'councils’ Now the RECORDER shamelessly confesses that KHOODEELAAR! has been correct all along.
But the RECORDER has not got the morality to admit that KHOODEELAAR! diagnoses made in July 2004 were as accurate as any that others have done in the 4 years that have followed...
KHOODEELAAR! says to the Newham RECORDER: STOP LYING in the name of the East End of London and start telling the truth about CRASSrail hole plot....
[To be continued]
We QUOTE THE NEWHAM Recorder’s confession that CRASSrail is a con, in effect.. that CRASSrail costs are already on the overrun even before the crass looting work has officially to begin....

Surveyors warn of rising costs
26 August 2008
LARGE-SCALE projects linked to the 2012 Olympic Games in Stratford could be delayed or even cancelled because of rising costs, according to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.
A report by the body says raw materials and labour costs have risen by 12.2 per cent over the past 12 months, and are forecast to rise by the same degree over the next two years.
Projects which, at the very least, may dip further into the public purse than originally anticipated are Crossrail, the East London Line extension and the Thameslink rail upgrade.
The institution warned rises in the costs of cement, steel piling and fuel are having a dramatic impact on civil engineering construction costs, writes KAY ATWAL.
Executive director Joe Martin said: "With large projects in rail, roads, electricity, water and sewerage all scheduled over the next two years, the civil engineering sector seems well placed to ride out the current economic downturn.
"However, the industry is facing the possibility of a serious threat caused by a combination of rising costs and the economic downturn that could result in delays and, at worst, cancellation of some of these schemes."
The credit crunch has reportedly delayed the £1.5 billion Silvertown Quays development, involving 5,000 new homes and other facilities in the Royal Docks, by 12 months until 2009.

Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole plot of greed..... evidence from the inner cities UK [72]
1040 GMT 1140 UK Time London Tuesday 26 August 2008:
KHOODEELAAR! No to 'Crossrail hole plot and agenda" No to the agenda of creating NEW poverty in the inner cities, IMPOSING poverty on the inner cities and obstructing the communities from getting rid of and out of poverty in the inner cities....." CAMPAIGN says that 'Dr' Derrick Campbell, of the varieties of UK Interior Ministry-linked, Police-linked 'voluntary' 'organisations', including specific ones based in the Birmingham Area, should be asking the question that has been overdue for at least the past 50 years in the inner cities UK: "Why is it that ethnicity-linked leaders, role models and aspiring models, who are patronized by the UK state and those in posts and positions of power in the various occasions and structures of the UK state, are NOT happy to identify with the ordinary 'ethnicity' communities once they, these 'leaders', 'role models' etc are installed in or in receipt of the validations by the UK state and its 'diversity' apparatuses...?
If 'Dr' Derrick Campbell had asked this question then he would have Learnt that the culture of violence that is often and on immediate facts associated with the back communities is one that the UK state WANTS there to be.
Answer THAT question and you will begin to solve the problems of violence that affects the internal black communities.....

KHOODEELAAR! updating the evidence of CROSSRAIL hole plot to degenerate the East End: Tony McNulty [71]

Over the next days, I shall be updating my analysis of the concept of inner city degeneration in the UK.
Degeneration is the concept that I have created to replace the misleading word regeneration.
I am doing this as based on the latest utterances, publicised by the compliant and the corrupted BBC on ‘Bank Holiday’ Monday featuring Tony McNulty.
McNulty’s latest BBC platform was arranged to allegedly rebut the comments made by a ‘Dr Campbell’, a black man who was shown as being critical of the Brown fronted Blaired Govt for removing funds from voluntary groups affecting black youths. Dr Campbell made the comments by linking the funds to several incidents of black youths being murdered and as he put it of black youths ‘dying’.
Tony McNulty dismissed the remarks.
I shall examine the DEGENERATION of the inner cities in light [= darkness] of Tony McNulty’s latest publicised utterances.
As a contextual reference, I cite again the two paragraphs about the East End of London published by the FT ‘media’ organization dated 24 August 2008
‘
The bigger prize is to revive east London's fortunes. A three-week festival of sport, even of Olympian proportions, will do nothing to help. East London needs better transport links, for which the Olympics are a convenient excuse - although it is depressing to think that the Olympic bid was necessary to rejuvenate plans for Crossrail, and more so to reflect that the east-west rail link is still years away.
Yet east London also needs better schools; the current crop scare off some of the young, ambitious families that the area needs, while those who choose to stay deserve better. Tony Blair's academies have been a modest step in the right direction, if one that Gordon Brown and Ed Balls are trying to reverse.

KHOODEELAAR! constitutional law action programme against Crossrail hole plot: the 'local' MP [70]
This page was last edited at 0610 GMT London Tuesday 26 August 2008
In January 2006 KHOODEELAAR! had published a number of comments about the Blaired Party propaganda over George Galloway's reported presence in the Channel 4 -End'emall'Big Brother House'. We had done so without making any contacts with George Galloway or his associates.
As stated in the past items, 'George Galloway' was being attacked in the media on Blair's behalf and on the falsely stated ground that he had been neglecting his constituents by being away from the House of Commons where the 'Crossrail Bill' was being debated.
KHOODEELAAR! being the campaign that made 'CrossRail' AT ALL topical in the UK media, we took the initiative and defended Galloway most extensively.
The ONLY UK-wide awareness of ANY campaign going on in George Galloway’s constituency of Bethnal Green and Bow is KHOODEELAAR! The same was the case in January 2006.
We then put a number of Questions to George Galloway’s office. Most of those questions were not answered. Nearly 3 years on, they remain unanswered. We shall go through the key questions and comments in the series of updates we begin today.
One communication we did receive on George Galloway’s behalf was dated 17 January 2006:
Here it is in full:
Tuesday, 17 January, 2006 6:53 PM
Following a telephone inquiry last week with a representative from your group with reference to this matter, I write to confirm what was stated during our telephone conversation:
Last Thursday a private select committee sat to discuss Crossrail. As it is a quasi judicial committee, no MP with an interest in Crossrail-such as Mr Galloway-is eligible to sit on this committee. Furthermore, the hearing last Thursday was private; public sittings to hear evidence will commence later this month, and Mr Galloway will be attending to represent the views of his constituents.
Two technical motions relating to Crossrail were put before the House last Thursday; the first with reference to the remit of the select committee; and the second, to consider whether those MPs who failed to deposit their petitions against the Crossrail bill should be allowed to do so out of time. Mr Galloway submitted a petition against the bill in September 2005 having consulted local residents and anti cross rail groups in Tower Hamlets to ensure the voices of the local residents are represented during consideration of the bill. This petition will be considered during the forthcoming public select committee hearings. There was no important debate or vote on Crossrail last week; the two technical motions as previously mentioned have not made any changes to Crossrail. As it stands, the bill is in committee stage; when the bill returns to the House for it's third reading, I can assure you Mr Galloway will be there to oppose it as he did during the second reading debate on 19th July 2005.
Kind regards.
