Why Tower Hamlets Crossrail hole-inviter Council has had no 'opposition leadership' on the Council -

[Continuing from the previous item about Tower Hamlets Council published here this morning]

Just how solid is that ‘belief’? Or, rather. how sound is that ground for that ‘belief’ by the controlling clique on Tower Hamlets Council that there is no ‘alternative’ to the current clique, that may take over the Council at the next coun cil election?


The ‘candidates’ have not spoken yet.

But by looking at the behaviour of the ‘candidates’ it is reasonable to say that they feel that they are not vincible. That they will, remain in the ‘majority’ group and they will ‘reign’ in the Tower Hamlets Borough!

And why should they feel so confident?

Part of the reason is to be found in what janet did!

Janet Ludlow!

Ludlow was allegedly the ‘leader of the group that was known as the ‘official opposition’ on Tower Hamlets Council upto the May 2006 council election.

She had anything upto 16 councillors including herself, that belonged, on paper, to the same group. They were treated as the official opposition on Tower Hamlets Coun cil...

But did they oppose?


And if they did, did the voters notice their opposition?


This could not be tested more comprehensively than on the matter of the Janet Ludlow role on Crossrail hole plot....

Khoodeelaar! campaign has published quite a significant number of pieces about Janet Ludlow’s role.

In fact, not even the ‘local’ ‘East London Idiotiser’ has written so much about Janet Ludlow.

We examine her role in context, next

First [that is only yesterday sat 10 May 2008] it was Cherie 'Booth' Blair being flaunted by Rupert Murdoch to sharpen the knife in .Gordon Brown's direction And this morning [Sunday 11 May 2008], it is John Prescott, who is being reported as having claimed to have advised Blair in the past to sack Gordon Brown when Brown was still the UK finance minister in Blair's administration.

Then there has been Peter Mandelson. Giving advice to Gordon Brown

And of all people, Alistair Campbell. Advising Gordon Brown


These are signs if any new were needed that the .Gordon Brown administration is in comprehensive trouble.

If these events in fact lead to Brown’s administration dying, then the post mortem will not necessarily blame Brown. What will be blamed, in a genuine analysis, is the fact that Blair had succeeded in destroying the very things on which he had made so many boastful claims. His boasts were to the opposite effect. He boasted of supporting the democratic structures and institutions that he was in fact smashing up...

The institutions of honesty, transparency in public life. Or the place of honesty and transparency; in public life.

.Gordon Brown has a serious shortage of sound honest opinion. Everyone within any reasonable range of 'power' [however transient, however shallow] is making their pitch. In secret. And in the case of Charles Clarke , he is getting as bitter because of losing power as he was when Blair first sacked him in effect.

The void of democratic audit, of critical mass that could save Brown was created by Blair. And Brown aided Blair in doing that.

Where should Brown turn now?

He should start even at this late stage, to tell the truth and the whole truth.

Her should discard fabrication. And mobilise the masses of people he helped to push into poverty and deprivation to unite behind a banner that will save his career and deliver the limited but only sure way of support in the next 10 years and beyond.

If he can’t see this or if he will not do this then Brown will deserve to go....

Crunch time for Ken Livingstone as London threatens to vote him out
30/04/2008


KEN LIVINGSTONE looks exhausted and, given the latest opinion polls, who can blame him?

He sits by a small table in a bland room on the ground floor of the Labour Party’s headquarters, with his mobile glued to his ear, as he listens to messages.

A water main has just burst near City Hall, causing it to be evacuated, and the mayor is concerned Thursday’s election count will not take place at his headquarters.

Livingstone could do without problems like these. Embattled is the only way to describe the 62-year-old mayor, now in his eighth year in office and pushing for a third term in City Hall.

In most polls he lags behind his main rival, Tory candidate Boris Johnson. His administration has recently been engulfed in a series of rows, one which led to his race adviser Lee Jasper resigning early last month.

SECRET PLANS

Last week, leaked emails showed the mayor had approved secret plans to hike the cost of transport fares after the election. (For the record, he promises that “fares and council tax will not go up other than broadly in line with inflation” if he is elected tomorrow. Whether many believe this, we will find out on Friday).

Rarely has opinion been so divided about Livingstone. He seems to have angered as many people as have embraced his radical policies over the last few years, most notably the congestion charge (which all mainstream candidates now support). Londoners seem to either love him or loathe him.

Supporters say he is a charismatic, progressive thinker and a welcome break from some over-polished Westminster politicians. Critics insist he doesn’t listen to Londoners’ concerns, has got into bed with Islamic extremists and has surrounded himself with some unpleasant characters and advisers.

When asked what he will do for the City and London’s economy, Livingstone is happy to skate around the question. “We [the mayor’s office and the City Corporation] have been supportive of each other; we both get huge benefit out of the dynamism of the City.

“Usually you find that business people and myself have been supportive of each other’s positions in terms of lobbying the government on non-doms or the squalid state of Heathrow or how essential it was to get Crossrail,” he says.

RISKY PLEDGE

Livingstone is quick to bring up the £16bn Crossrail project. Transport — in particular his commitment to pushing through Crossrail on time and budget — has been key to his manifesto in 2008. He says he wants to be held accountable for getting the project right.

His pledge is certainly a risky one, given the fiasco of recent large undertakings such as Wembley stadium and Terminal 5. “You’ve got a £16bn project. If it goes £4bn over, that is money that comes out of the business rate or from fare payers.

That can be the difference between 1.5 per cent growth in the economy and a recession,” he says. He defends the big salaries dished out to Transport for London (TFL) executives — something that Johnson has attacked — and says that the person in charge of managing Crossrail can expect a handsome pay packet.

PUNCH AND JUDY

The trading of insults, the claims and counter-claims between Livingstone and Johnson have been entertaining but have they gone too far? The Mayor doesn’t seem to think so and is keen to indulge in yet more of what Tory leader David Cameron once called “Punch and Judy” politics.

“For nearly two decades he [Johnson] has pumped out this reactionary bilge when he was writing for the Spectator and the Telegraph, saying he didn’t like Europe,” says Livingstone, smiling. “How can you be a friend of the City if you have constantly been hostile to the EU, which is a crucial part of our economic base?”

He accuses his rival of “pandering” to the average Daily Telegraph reader in the Home Counties who “props up the bar in the golf club”. Livingstone also accuses Johnson of being badly prepared for the job. “It never occurred to him he would have to run for election in London,” he says.

It’s probably true that everyone, including the mayor, has been surprised by how well Johnson has performed in the polls. It’s hard to say whether Lambeth-born Livingstone dislikes the Tory candidate as much as he lets on — the two have seemed almost chummy during election events.

The mayor cuts a paternal figure when talking about Johnson, tipping him as future mayor and saying he could benefit from some time in City Hall before eventually rising to the position.

It’s certainly a job that needs to be taken seriously. “You can’t make a city successful but you really can screw it up,” Livingstone observes. On that, few voters will disagree.

Is the London Times [Murdoched or not] correct to say in effect that Ken Livingstone is deeply disturbed and poisonous?

If the Times has got its facts right then how is it that it too has been failing to tell the truth about Livingstone's biggest con so far on the public, the CRASSrail hole plot?


Rupert Murdoched Times, London, featuring two faces, belonging to the Big Business Crossrail hole plot-tout 'Undone mayor' Ken Livingstone [the 'incumbent' = 'sitting' = 'current'] 'mayor' in the name of London and one of his challengers, the Tory Boris Johnson, at today's elections that are reportedly taking place in London as ‘scheduled’... ...


The same Times newspaper is also reporting the fact today Thursday that Livingstone is so desperate to cling on to the post [of ‘Undone mayor’] that gives him such access to loads [like in over £Billions] of public cash to use and abuse [this is AADHIKARonline saying, NOT the Murdoched Times] ... that he mounted on Wednesday 30 April 2008 a most vitriolic, vicious attack on the one challenger, that eh fears most as far as the election is concerned .


That challenger to Livingstone, according to the Times., is Boris Johnson...
