KHOODEELAAR! dissection of Rupert Murdoch’s failure has been echoed by UK 'mainstream' media in the hours that have followed

The Reuters news agency is reporting today [Thursday 20 August 2009] that the ‘Londonpaper’, the so-called free sheet [it is not at all free, a subject we shall discuss in a later comment] ‘London evening paper’, is set to close after the publisher the Rupert Murdoch Media empire, found it was running on a ‘loss’.

Murdoch’s son James MURDOCH is quoted in the REUTERS report as saying that in deciding to close down the title his company has taken a “tough decision that reflects our priorities as a business”.

Media analysts as well as Murdoch’s rivals the Daily Mail Group are all agreed that the UK economy is still in crisis and that neither publisher could make profit on their ‘free titles’. The Daily Mail Group publishes London Lite, which too is a loss making part of the Group’s commercial media operations.

So shouldn’t both Rupert Murdoch and the Daily Mail Group be talking up the prospects for business in London? Now that ‘Crossrail’ is being extended to York?

That question is crass, isn’t it?

But we had to pose it here and now so that we are not ‘treated to’ a surprise when Boris Johnson eventually returns to London from Corsica and resumes his version of the lunatic fantasising that he evidently has careeristically inherited from the other wasteful faker at the expense of London Ken Livingstone.

Like a mechanically devised frenetic robot programmed to behave as a zombie out of rational balance or restraint, Boris Johnson has been performing the line that starts with a number of ‘positive’ words and then the key utterance centres on the ‘magic’ of Crossrail!

Crossrail – the robot ‘mayor’ says, will deliver magical solutions to all of London’s problems. Crossrail – the loony tune [how R Reagan would love Boris Johnson!] bellows, will save London from swine flu, make housing better, rid the capital of knife crime and recalcitrant Met Police Commissioners with too much attachments to Blair years!

Crossrail, guffaws Boris Johnson, will make him look decent and law abiding even in the embarrassment of his unauthorized shed in Islington!

Crossrail, says Boris, will make him look competent.

Even a sage!

Especially when he delivers the programmed lines so beloved of the crooks in the banks and the City of London square mile….

Which is where his predecessor in post at the Onion in London SE1 contrived HIS deals with some of the shadiest characters in the Square Mile….

Ronson Tower!

Lyingstill himself is reported by the CRASSrail-peddling EVENING STANDARD [in a tiny ‘gossip’ piece hidden away in the deeper reaches inside the paper of Wednesday 19 August 2009] to have followed Peter Mandelson to Corfu [after Mandy himself has returned to the UK, of course] for his own ‘summer break’!

We should say, for one of his summer breaks.

How the lying ‘socialist’ [!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!] time-server exhibits his shamelessness and immorality!

It is shameless for someone whose entire personal greed-driven ego-based ‘political’ business and trade spanning 40 years as KHOODEELAAR! campaign has originally diagnosed and published, has been contrived on the ‘basis’ that he is a ‘socialist’ ‘taking the capitalists for the good of ordinary people and their rights’, to repeatedly indulge in the luxurious habits that ordinary people cannot buy and are deprived of ?

It is also immoral and is evidence that Livingstone has never been anything that can be called remotely socialist.

It follows that Livingstone should be treated as any other selfish, capitalist, greedy sleaze-ball.

Yet he keeps being treated as not only an opponent of capitalism but also as a ‘victim’ of capitalist plots!

Where?

Why the Stalinist ‘Morning star’ – the residual Stalinist and the racist ‘daily paper of the British left’ !!!!!!!! for a start.

And by the multi Millionaire ‘certifier’ of ‘British socialists’ Tony Benn for another!

But all is apparently forgiven by the ever-zombified masses in London in whose presumed name the liars in post and those just out of post keep lying as they facilitate the GWBush-agenda-couriers Big Business and the Military Industrial Complex to penalise the ordinary people and loot the funds that belong to the public…

How else could K. Livingstone boast on the BBC Question Time [April 2008] and repeatedly say that he had LIED about the 'benefits' to London of hosting the 2012 Games? ‘Question Time’ fronter David Dimbleby made a token number of points at Livingstone but on the whole Dimbore let Lyingstill get away.

None of the heavily censored and security-vetted and politically stifled ‘audience’ staged by the BBC as its N’th plug for the OTT ‘mayor of London elections’ [that was then a week away] showed to have a clue as to the brazen outrage of a lying Ken Livingstone being given the platform with the liar being left to carry on lying.....

When ALL objective criteria and independently verifiable indicators so far show beyond any doubt whatever that the 2012 Games hosting event will make ordinary ‘Londoners’ pay for the debts rather than gain anything.

However, the same is not the case for Sebastian Coe himself. He has picked up another pay rise in the last year.

His personal benefits, like the benefits being reaped by K Livingstone, are soaring!

From £285,000 per year to £357,000 per year. And that is only the official, published number!

    University of York celebrates new rail link
    August 19th, 2009
    The University of York today announced a major new collaboration with Crossrail Ltd, to support a new course in Computer Science.
    Through a new agreement, Crossrail, the company delivering the new railway for London and the South-East -- Europe's largest civil engineering project -- will provide annual sponsorship of £60,000 for the Master of Engineering course in Embedded Systems.
    The four-year course offered by the University's Department of Computer Science aims to give students practical experience of hardware and software development and working with a major industrial collaborator.
    Crossrail will be involved in the design of the course prospectus and will also provide guest lectures, as well as an annual prize of £250 for the outstanding student. Students on the course will be able to visit Crossrail's premises in London and may also be offered one-year internships on the project.
    An embedded systems laboratory in the new Computer Science building currently under construction on the University's Heslington East campus expansion will be named 'the Crossrail Laboratory'.
    The agreement will see the establishment of an annual Crossrail public lecture which will feature speakers from the rail sector. The Department will also explore the potential for research projects and workshops with Crossrail.
    The Head of Computer Science at York, Professor John McDermid, said: "This is an exciting partnership with a company behind the transformation of transport infrastructure in one of the world's great cities. Crossrail's involvement will result in students with first-hand experience of working with embedded systems, and the technical and personal skills to be of immediate and long-term benefit to industry."
    Crossrail's Talent and Resources Director, Valerie Todd , said: "Crossrail is a project of national significance and has always valued investment in training future talent. The Master of Engineering course will help foster such talent by providing a high-quality learning environment creating a large bank of skilled engineers who will be an asset to the industry."
