KHOODEELAAR! TOLD YOU SO! That London ‘Crossrail’ was CRASS. That it was crassly conceived. That it was crassly peddled. That it made no sense. that it was being peddled by irrational holders of decision-making offices and posts. AS BORIS JOHNSON has again showed today by his crass insistence that he is going to CUT OTHER transport projects IN ORDER to put £Billions of public money to CROSSRAIL [To be continued]
“05 November 2008
London transport projects to be sacrificed for Crossrail, says Boris
Neeta Dutta
“Major capital transport projects in London are likely to be dropped due to a lack of funding and in favour of pursuing Crossrail and tube improvements.”
As a £230M funding package from BAA toward the £16bn Crossrail project was announced this week, the Mayor of London Boris Johnson stated that there is not enough ‘cash to do everything we would like’ in terms of major transport projects.
In his ‘Way to Go’ paper, which sets out his vision for transport in the capital, Johnson says ‘one thing we cannot do is spend tens of millions keeping projects alive, for political reasons, when there is simply no government funding to deliver them’.
The Crossrail project, which he describes as ‘vital’ to the future of the city, is guaranteed to go ahead.
A spokesman for the Mayor’s office confirmed that a number of projects would be dropped under Transport for London’s business plan for the next 10 years. The plan was discussed at a TfL board meeting this week and is due to be published.
Crossrail will provide direct services from Heathrow airport through central London, the City and Canary Wharf and out to Shenfield and Abbey Wood.
New stations will be created at Paddington, Bond Street, Tottenham Court Road, Farringdon, Liverpool Street, Whitechapel and the Isle of Dogs (Canary Wharf).

KHOODEELAAR! rejecting Crossrail scam-backers Brown, Ca-Moron and Boris Johnson’s peddling on Wednesday 5 November 2008 [301]
1608 GMT London Wednesday 5 November 2008:
KHOODEELAAR! No to “Crossrail ejecting Boris Johnson’s latest Crossrail plugging stupidity, contradiction and ignorance.Just look at the stupidity, the LATEST instalment of idiocy by Crossrail peddling Boris Johnson:Read what Johnson is quoted today as saying and then consider the question that arises:
How does 10 percent of the ‘capacity’ revolutionise the 100 percent of the whole infrastructure?[To be continued]
“London has some fantastic transport infrastructure, but often you get the
sense that solutionrances that Boris as have been designed around the technology, rather than
around the people it is supposed to serve.
“If you start the day crammed in to a Tube carriage with a stranger’s armpit
in your face, chancsed by his bures are it is going to get you off to a bad start. If you have
to squeeze your way onto your evening bus through a crowd of swearing,
fighting children, chances are you will take that stress into your evening.
“I want to improve Londoners’ quality of life and we will be investing billions in
achieving this through better transport - boosting capacity on the Tube
network by 30 per cent, delivering Crossrail, which will revolutionise the way
we get across the city, and in a host of other measures to improve the
experience of navigating the capital.
“Our guiding principle of value for money will mean that Londoners money is
invested wisely on projects that deliver real results.“
The fuller texts of Johnson PLUGS will follow soon
