KHOODEELAAR! Updating commentary on how the people can establish democracy in Britain - after Brown again failed to tell the truth

 
 2128 Hrs GMT

London Sunday 31 may 2009

 

 
KHOODEELAAR!  Published again our simultaneous rebuttal of Gordon Brown’s utterances. We did so on the twitter site as Brown was on the Andrew Marr show on the BBC. 

 

We told GORDON BROWN in our rebuttals this morning that he was faking it and uttering lies on the BBC.

 

What was the central lie at the core of Gordon Brown’s faked appearance?

 

It was faked because Andrew Marr is a placeman. Has been all his ‘career’. And he is incapable of telling the whole truth, no matter what he is peddling. This morning [Sunday 31 May 2009], Marr was peddling the business justification for the BBC. Licence fee, Licence fee.

 

So he was faking himself as a ‘tough’ interrogator. The fakery dominated the proceedings/

 

Marr managed to come across as plasticky and as pastiched as he ever had done.

 

The fakery was in the crafty assumption that he would come across as asking tough questions without really asking the tough questions.

 

As for Brown’s utterances of lies, he was uttering lies about the main agenda of reform that he claimed to be engaged in implementing. He claimed that he had put in place proposals two year earlier.

 

That was a lie. And that lie did not enhance Brown’s 'credibility' whatever.

 

Andrew Marr should have challenged Brown on that claim. But Marr didn’t. Instead Marr marred the moment. And let Brown ‘get away’. On the facts.

 

It is quite possible that Brown keeps referring to his religious and cultural roots and upbringing because collectively that is the only authentic source he can fall back on.  We recognize his right to indulge it as and when he feels like doing so.

 

Our interest is on his role as the head of the Government. We expose his fakery when we find that in Brown’s perception of what constitute good government and democratic government he has missed the main events.

 

Just as we have been pointing out for more than five years to him that Big Business was BAD business, so we have been pointing out to Brown that he was wrong to assume that his sloganeering propensities were acceptable as being his actual delivery.

 

He was uttering lies probably on the advice of his current set of advisers. Or he was uttering the lies because he lacks due understanding of the present and contemporary political realities about and in Britain.

 

Whatever the actual spur and the trigger for Brown’s utterances, the bottom line is that he showed that he was not the one to deal with the collapse of the myth of a democratic parliament in Britain.

 

That collapse was not something that the Khoodeelaar! Campaign has needed to wait for.  We are the ones who PREDICTED the collapse. Of the stooged parliament. That phrase is ours. We did find on the facts and on the evidence that Parliament was stooged, bankrupt. And corrupt. We have maintained all along that the UK Parliamentary democracy was a sham affair and that it was bound to come apart.

 

We made that observation in context and on the basis of the facts as we did the democratic thing, the constitutional thing, and the ethical thing and tried to engage Parliament in listening to us on the matter at hand.

 

We found parliament dead. Strangled. Devoid. And in terms of the actual physical access to the ‘palace’ [!!!!]  we found parliament an intimidating, almost an evil edifice that was being guarded by personnel who included a number of thugs licensed to incite, provoke, insult and offend. And block. The ordinary public.

 

 

Now that it is in serious public display as a sick entity, how will society survive the exposure of the sick Parliament of Britain and how will the ordinary people in Britain protect the basic rights against the threat that is clearly building up as part of the wider and widespread sickness....

        Following are representative files, taken from the Internet via Google at 2030 Hrs GMT appx on Sunday 31 May 2009.

         

         

        Khoodeelaar! Campaign organiser Muhammad Haque has been examining the Crossrail scam on a daily basis for the past almost 6 years. Starting in 2003. Although the actual KHOODEELAAR! Campaign against the Crossrail hole scam and agenda was started in January 2004, there took place a significant amount of investigative work dating back to 1999 over which period the corrupt and the irresponsible promotion of the Crossrail scam had been evident. But that evidence was not available in the public domain. Nor was the evidence known to ordinary members of the public who were not actually engaged in a personal way or in a job related way with any aspect of the peddling. The Crossrail scam thus was being pushed through in secret. Or by default. [To be continued]

        KHOODEELAAR! Evidential note on Peter Soulsby, ‘MP’ who was a member of the ‘Crossrail Bill Select Committee’

        2025 Hrs GMT London Thursday 28 May 2009


        KHOODEELAAR! Evidential note on Peter Soulsby, ‘MP’ who was a member of the ‘Crossrail Bill Select Committee’

        Soulsby is featured in the list so far published of the MPs found to have been involved in abusing their position and pocketing extra cash by deceiving the public. This is the very point that we have been making for years about MPs. We have been saying that the UK parliament was a ghost House. It needed live and truthful people actually telling the truth all the time.

        That someone like Soulsby sat on the ‘Crossrail Bill’ ‘Select Committee’ shows that that committee was incapacitated from the start. And it was a stooged committee from start to finish. We told you so

That stooged select committee was officially starting its stooging business for Big Business-agenda-ed, Blairing regime on that day. Khoodeelaar! marked the event by holding the march and reiterating NO to Crossrail hole Big Business agenda...... On that same occasion, KHOODEELAAR! also began a subsidiary campaign to aid George Galloway who was then coming under severe political fire both from the Blairing regime and from assorted others who also despised him but who were using the pretext at that time given to them by  George Galloway’s appearance on the Channel  4 Big Brother House [To be continued]

                KHOODEELAAR! TOLD DAVID CAMERON SO! That the UK Parliament was not alive. It was dead. Now, in the morning after the over-hyped promotional spiel that David Cameron delivered via the staged platform at Milton Keynes in collaboration with the Open University management, KHOODEELAAR! is also telling David Cameron to show that he understands the difference between waffle and reviving a dead Parliament.


                In the years of the campaign against the crassly conceived CRASSrail scam, KHOODEELAAR! has obtained direct evidence of the morass that is the UK Parliament. We have published the findings at each stage and on every single occasion. Has Cameron not been reading our comments, reports and questions?


                If he has not been then he is even weaker than his Milton Keynes spiel suggested..


                One of the things we have been pointing out is the allocation of £100 Million of the UK public’s mine to a dubious outfit of unproven reliability let alone appropriateness.


                That allocation was made by Alistair Darling when he was fronting the UK Department for Transport.


                In light of the reports over the past 24 hours that the same Darling cannot do his sums and ha s been cheating the public tax collector, isn’t it time that David Cameron admitted his faulty role ion the CrossRail scam?

                    KHOODEELAAR! TOLD YOU SO! That Alistair Darling was callous about the law. That he had lied. That he was unfit for purpose..As Crossrail peddler

                    London Sunday 24 May 2009


                    KHOODEELAAR! TOLD YOU SO! That Alistair Darling was callous about the law. That he had lied. That he was unfit for purpose..


                    KHOODEELAAR! said all these YEARS before there existed any remote possibility of the London DAILY TELEGRAPH group doing what they have now done in the past 15 days: publish SOME OF THE MOUNTAIN of existing evidence that supports the KHOODEELAAR! diagnosis of the past 5 years and 5 months, that the UK Houses of Parliament were overrun with  thieves, liars, cheats and crooks...


                    We have been saying for over 5 years now about Alistair Darling that as an alleged trained lawyer, he had an additional duty to tell the truth. And we said that he failed to tell the truth and he has continued to fail to apologise for lying to Parliament in February 2005 as he formally presented the Crossrail Bill to the UK House of Commons...We have also published with regular updates evidence of Alistair Darling’s other acts of fabrication lying and deceiving the public... Like the formal statement dated 30 March 2006 in which he confirmed in a most convoluted way the decision that he had caved in to our campaign demand and that he was scrapping the Crossrail DIRT hole in Hanbury Street/  Princelet Street 


                    We have shown that Alistair Darling got  a transport minister located in the Houses of PEE-rs to sneak out a statement saying that £100 Million had been granted to  CLRL. That was in December 2005.  For more than 3 years now, we have been asking Darling [and the successor post holders at the UK DEpartment ‘for’ Transport=DfT in that time, eg Douglas Alexander, Ruth Kelly and Geoff Hoon] to explain what justification he had for doing that. We have over 100 separate items of evidence to show that Darling abused his position and that there is no constitutional justification for the £100- million to have been paid to still;l unexplained ‘causes’.


                    Today’s confessions about Darling's behaviour ‘as an MP’  as made on the BBC ‘Politics Show’ [London Sunday 24 May 2009]  require that we go through the outstanding questions that Darling mist show about the wasteful Crossrail.

Blaire’s Transport front man Alistair Darling Shows Two Fingers To ‘Parliamentary accountability’ and to the MPs Select Committee on the Crossrail hole Bill’! 

                    © CBRUK/KHOODEELAAR 2005 

                    THE BRICK LANE LONDON E1 AREA CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE CROSSRAIL HOLE BILL 2005 has learnt that despite being asked to show evidence in justification for allocating one hundred £million to the crossrail promoters, secretary of state for transport Alistair darling mp has failed to do so. 


                    The only ‘evidence’ is contained in the ‘HOUSE OF LORDS’ statement made by Alistair darling’s co-minister 

                    Described in the ‘house of lords hansard’ as ‘lord davies of Oldham’. The Davies is quoted in the Hansard as made the utterances (see further down) confirming the payment. 


                    Our associated voluntary organisation for audit of public cash allocations and powers peoples audit on 15 December 2005 asked the department for transport to provide a breakdown on the alleged use by crossrail promoters of this latest £100 million of public cash. 


                    The constitutional law points at this stage include this - what is the point of setting up a select committee of mps to ‘scrutinise’ the contents and the full implications on all the affected communities and peoples of the crossrail bill (the scrutiny is said to be scheduled to start in January 2006) when the government is making such a huge sum of public money available to the promoters? 


                    It is not implied flouting of the House of Commons. 


                    It is not suspected flouting of the House of Commons. It is open defiance of any existence of any legitimate say on the party of the whole of House of Commons. For every select committee is constitutionally in being with the authority of the whole House of Commons and thus of the UK parliament. 


                    The fact that an Mps’ ‘SELECT COMMITTEE’ has been set up to examine the Crossrail hole BILL and the fact that that Bill is not yet in the statute book means that the government is acting unconstitutionally and illegally in paying any public cash at this stage to the very parties and interests whose plans and whose alleged reasoning are yet to be examined and given any verdict bon by the Mps’ SELECT COMMITTEE. 


                    Unless of course Blair is saying to all the innocent believers in ‘the sovereignty of the Brutish Parliament that he doesn't give a damn about any mps select committee. 


                    Just as Alistair Darling is saying two fingers to the same small group of mps that has been listed as members of the committee that will scrutinise the crossrail bill staring in January!!!! 


                    The Khoodeelaar! (BRICK LANE LONDON E1 AREA NO TO CROSSRAIL HOLE ATTACKS) Campaign stated as far back as 19 July 2005 that the mps ‘debate’ held as part of the formality to give the procedural second reading to the crossrail hole bill was no more than mere formality. 


                    That the so-called debate was a sham. 


                    That the UK HOUSE OF COMMONS was not being treated by the vast majority of MPs themselves as the democratic forum, to speak freely on behalf of the electors and for the people far less to tell the truth . 


                    We are not thrilled today [Wednesday 21 December 2005] to report that the latest display of a £100 Million abuse by Tony Blair’ group of their access to and the ‘political’ control of the executive in the British parliamentary system will do nothing at all to assist any future spin by anyone – whether nominally academic or brazenly careerist – who would seek to substantiate any claim to the effect that ‘our democratic parliamentary system works and it is respected by our elected holders of the most powerful offices in the land’! 


                    [We shall continue this analysis] 


                    FOR NOW, HERE IS WHAT ALISTAIR DARLING’S CO-MINISTER HAD TO SAY IN THE ‘HOUSE OF LORDS’:- 

                    “ 

                    My right honourable friend the secretary of state for transport (Alistair darling) has made the following ministerial statement. I am today making an additional £100 million available for the further development of crossrail. This money will be used by cross London rail links (CLRL the company held jointly by the department and TfL to assist them with promotion of the crossrail bill to provide proper support to the project as we take the crossrail hybrid bill through parliament over this period. It will also allow CLRL, working with the 

                    Department and TFL, to do necessary research and planning before the crossrail scheme can enter its next phase of development. The case for crossrail is clear and the government have long said that they are committed to the scheme. This is a further sign of that commitment. This is a complex long-term project but important features are being determined at this stage. Money spent properly now will see its reward later in a better planned, better designed and therefore better value for money final scheme. But that does not mean that resource is unlimited. The grants I am announcing today will allow CLRL to make a start on a detailed programme of work for the development of crossrail. My department will continue to monitor expenditure on the project to ensure best value as the bill continues through parliament. These grants will be paid to clrl by my department under section 6 of the railways act 2005. ”
