Fleet Street " quality" daily Telegraph PRAISES Cameron for the "sins" that it would condemn G Brown for!

1420 GMT London Monday 31 October 2011

Today's Daily Telegraph [on its FrontPage] is shamelessly peddling the same fakery and showing it as an achievement by CON-DEM Cameron as had been exhibited by Gordon Brown about "new jobs announcement".

Gordon Brown abused the position as “The Prime Minister" of the day by allowing Big Biz Agenda lies about “infrastructure projects” to be given heavy-duty “Government imprimatur”. I use the word imprimatur to stress the implied gravity and reliability that are associated with State announcements.

The Tory-graph is correctly condemned as the propaganda organ for the worst of the neoconniving Consevative party. I say neoconniving on the facts. It is the Neo-con House Journal in Western Europe.

How can the Tory-Graph claim that an "announcement" [at the time as yet] to be mouthed by Cameron, amounted to the realisation?

Yet the headline went as boldly fraudulently as the Tory-graph designers could make it appear on the front page.

Hours later, the Channel 4 News web site is itself committing the same misrepresentation of the facts as it had done so often for Gordon Brown. Present the claimed job creation as not only a credible utterance but that its realisation had already begun even before the script writers had left their desks.

It goes without saying that the Daily Mail is as fabricating for the Cameron image as a job creator as that paper [and its entire Editorial agenda operating team fronted by Paul Dacre] would have been unhesitant in their condemnation of anything Gordon Brown would have said.

In between the front pages, neither the BBC News Channel nor Sky news has had any rigours put into the coverage of the Cameron callousness about “job creation” and “kick-start” projects to that alleged end...

The fact is that the “jobs” and the “projects” that Cameron has unleashed are nothing at all to do with ordinary people deserving to be employed for their skills and for their readiness to earn their living. The jobs are in the main another cover for Cameron’s real agenda designed for his CONDEM Collusion’s stooged service to the demands Military Industrial Complex. Most of the “jobs” and the associated propjets are in strange areas of the “economy” not at all reaching the needs or the capacities of ordinary people.

This same MIC agenda drives the rest of the UK Government strategy.

That was also uppermost in Gordon Brown’s “infrastructure” announcements.

The only difference being that those who had been overly hostile to the remotest hint of J M Keynes in anything G Brown claimed, are not going to say anything noticeable about that over-assaulted villain in the mythology of economic planning and macro economic policy-making.

Socrates vs. Martin Sorrell

This is a most ironic pair of names.

Socrates vs Sorrell.

Socrates is of course Greek.

And rendered totally defunct.

So much so that even the morally challenged and the ethically bankrupt likes of France’s Sarkozy don’t hesitate before berating the Greeks.

Yet Greece still has a lot to teach.

And the teachings of Greece that can be traced back to Socrates are worth more than all the trillions that a truly bankrupt “role model” like Martin Sorrell can begin to be able to even count.

Executive pay

Sorrell this morning [in the past 25 minutes] has been shouting at TV news programme presenters.

First he shouted at Sky News presenter Mark Longhurst. A few minutes later he popped up on BBC News Channel, shouting at news presenter Simon McCoy.

On the BBC News Channel, McCoy was not able to complete his attempts at quizzing the morality free Sorrell as the weather slot came on minutes before 0900 Hrs local time [0800 GMT].

Sorrell had managed to smugly boast that in the previous fifteen years he had not taken advantage of any of the options that were available to him.

By “options” he means craftily the many OTHER ways that he could pocket loadsofcash.

He need not have bothered with that qualifier.

Accordnmg to the most recenmt set of calculatons,. Soirrell is still floationg on a fortune at leats around £100million.

Contast him with Socrates.

None of the latter’s styduients could cite a single saum of moinye that Socrates ever “earned”.

Not in any way that Sorrell would recgbnsie.

Socrates was about the riches of the kind that Sorell would not udneratnd.

Despite all the laurels and awards and validfayons that Sorrell carries with him, he has not sjhown the slighrst abilioty far less willingness to udnertand morality. Not in the way that Socrartes dide. Or does.

For Socrates is teacvhing even now. Nearly two and a half thsoaund years after he phsycally died.

Can Soirrell even outlast the last TV slot in which he made an appearance?

UK MPs, the "Palace" of Westminster continue to remain as far removed from the people today as they have done for hundreds of years. NOT rebelling!

© Muhammad Haque Daily Constitutional and Ethical commentary on the state of morality-free, ethics-free, democracy-free “Parliament” in the UK.

Exposing the “mainstream” media untruth about “Tory MPs rebelling against the EU”.

Pointing out the day's example of the stupidest assertion by the "mainstream" as typified by the BBC.

The stupidity is in the fact that the Tory MPs' latest display of "opposition" to the UK's membership of the EU is genuine.

It is not genuine. It cannot be genuine. It is a bargaining ploy. And this is going to remain the case for as long as I can foresee.

The so-called "Labour Party Euro sceptics" too are guilty of the same thing. And the "rebellion" is no such thing. Whenever MPs appear to be taking a stance that is not the same as that of the Party Whip" [notice the sadistic language they use there too] the "media" confounds the linguistic abuse by calling such behaviour "rebellious".

There has not been a genuine rebellion by UK MPs for more than three hundred years.

Every single ploy is staged for the purpose of the week or the year. Had there been a rebellion, it would have changed Parliament.

Parliament has not changed for hundreds of years. MPs behave as stooges. Stooges for the agenda-setting forces that remain unaccountable, unidentified by name. Those forces are the ones that set the agenda of each "mainstream" Party. And Mps carrying the "Party" cards behave as stooges managed via each” Party’s" "Whips"!". The fact that there is this word "Whip" still "actively used" shows that there is not a Democratic Parliament in being.

It is a Whipped Parliament. It is a sadistic, sub- fascist operation.

So whoever still suffers from the delusion that there is a thing called “The Westminster Model of Parliamentary democracy” is not only a treble moron but is also in need of serious therapy for multiple health issues.

How can it be a model when the thing itself is devoid of the real representative characteristics?

Long queues of "consumers" spotted in Brick Lane! Yet Tower Hamlets is still at the top of the list of jobless East London boroughs

London

a Brick Lane Report
Editor © Muhammad Haque
For the past three days, long queues have been forming of mostly young people [aged under 30] in Brick Lane.
What are they queuing up for?
And where, really, do they come from?
Answers to these questions will tell more about the state of the UK Economy than any number of spiels attributed to George Osborne.
If the young people have been queering to take advantage of a show or a sale that doesn’t cost them anything then of course the event would not be as definitive an indicator.
However, they are evidently joining the queue and also paying to do so.
So what does it tell us about the “Economy” in the East End of London?
The event doesn’t tell us anything much really.
Except that the people on the queues are mostly NOT from the East End.

And whatever they have been queuing up for is NOT an East End of London product or service.

And therein lies one key anomaly that also again exposes the untruth that is being peddled every week by the “local” “elected” Tower Hamlets Council.

The “Council” is reportedly in the running for the [allegedly] “coveted” “City” status, that the Queen, Elizabeth 2, is expected to grant to one of about 30 “aspiring” applicants.

And as part of the promotion for that application for that “status”, a local “MP”, Jim Fitzpatrick, has been given publicity by a Canary Wharf-based propaganda outfit, also called the Wharf, as having delivered a spiel in the House of Commons last week allegedly singing praises of the Tower Hamlets Council.

Jim Fitzpatrick’s spiel was as free of substance about the real life day to economic, social and democratic experiences of ordinary people in the Borough of Tower Hamlets as it was blank on the state of “accountability” available to the people from or via the varieties of pliant “elected” occupants of offices that are funded by the public and in the collective name of the people in the Borough of Tower Hamlets.

A substantive argument would have showed just how ill-advised the “City” “status” “bid” is and how appallingly dismal the role of the “elected” occupants had been.

One area of abysmal failure would have been shown to have been the Council-controlled local schools in Tower Hamlets.

In the main, the overwhelming majority of school-leavers in Tower Hamlets are leaving schools every year without achieving the necessary foundation in education.

Education as defined in the context of socially responsible and accountable and able human beings.

Is the United Nations Organisation doing anything really to stop poverty and hunger from spreading? Muhammad Haque updating his Manifesto of 1991

Muhammad Haque diagnosing the disastrous irrelevance of the UNO's dominant bureaucracy to the real needs of the vast majority of the world's ordinary people -

Is the United Nations Organisation doing anything really to stop poverty and hunger from spreading?

The item below has been taken from the www. facebook.com site where it was published a few minutes earlier:

© Muhammad Haque
0810 Hrs GMT London Saturday 22 October 2011

In the run up, so to speak, to the then UK Prime Minister John Major's "address" at the United Nations General Assembly, I broadcast a brief Manifesto for the world. I did that on the UK terrestrial Channel 4 ‘Slot’ [that has been carried in the few minutes immediately after the Channel 4 News of 1800 GMT is broadcast on ordinary weekdays] which has had various tags or titles. The Political slot is probably the most frequently associated one.
In that broadcast, lasting only a few minutes, I predicted that the POVERTY MIGRATION of massive numbers of people from the Asian and African continents [and by implications elsewhere in the other continents and parts of the world] would become the bigger challenge for the "rulers" of the world.
I told John Major in that broadcast that he was wrong to overdo the "concerns" about nuclear threats that he and his "allies" associated with "Third World" regimes.
I said that the most economic and sustainable action would be to address poverty in the countries of origins of the people who were migrating or going to want to migrate.
Has anyone taken any notice of what I said then?
Did John Major pay any attention?
Did the United Nations General Assembly itself?
Did the UK’s very own and very “modest” United Nations Association pay any attention to what I said about the challenge of hunger and famine that was looming 20 years ago?

That every single holder in the post of “Transport” “Secretary” in the UK DAFT [“Oops” DfT, the “Department for Transport”] had been stooged by Military Industrial Complex serving Big Business agenda setters and unaccountable controllers of the “aims of Government”. Yesterday’s promotion of Justine Greening into the slot is not going to be a departure whatever. Greening had shown signs of being almost semi-independent in her Opposition days. However, she soon exhibited all symptoms of stooping the nearer the 06 May 2010 UK “elections” got. She is now set to repeat the seriously flawed, uneconomic, unsustainable, unnecessary, wasteful, corrupt, corrupting, irresponsible, anti-social agenda peddled by Phillip Hammond in ritualistically uttering the untruths for HS2. Khoodeelaar! is this weekend publishing an update on our support to the communities opposing HS2. High Speed TWO.

Fox boxed in an awkward hole of his own mischief! Worse yet to come


My word! Fox boxed in a hole of his own mischief is my phrase of the moment about Liam Fox. What could I be referring to by Fox’s mischief?

I would be referring to years of bragging of his reactionary, cruel ideology. Underneath the bragging and the pursuit of power at the same time whilst brandishing the overstated affiliation with the myth of Maggie Thatcher, Liam Fox has been allowed to violate every single bit of pro-civilisation values in the UK.

This week, his apologists and fellow-opportunists of the Rightwing of the Corruptocracy in the UK could not find anything more “potent” than the supposed threat to Cameron that Fox posed as a “Back Bencher” in the heavily poodled UK House of Commons.

That idiotic “analysis” of the “potent Fox…” [‘as broadcast on SKY NEWS last night] was delivered by that very embarrassingly oversold “commentator” Andrew Pierce in Pierce’s feeble but deceptively disguised as stern!] diagnostics on Sky News.
With the likes of Pierce abandoning their once genuine dedication to investigative journalism, there is no likelihood that the ordinary people in Britain will be the beneficiaries in terms of knowledge of Liam Fox’s eventual disappearance from the sort-of-centre stage. And Kevin Maguire, the jocular “critic” of his mate Pierce, has got to do much better than the lazy, predictable “Tory boy” “tirade fit for toddlers” routine at “Pierce’s expense”. “The country” deserves better than that. Much much much better than that!

Newham Council clique in crass collusion with sleazy elements!



Time after time, the corrupt clique in control of the "deprived" "inner city" East London borough of Newham Council has been exposed as a most undemocratic obstruction against the democratic needs of the local community covered by the "Borough".
And time after time, the "elected" councillors on that Council have been exposed as being unworthy of their claim to being the democratic representatives of the people in the area.

Newham, London Borough Council's "elected" councillors are, COLLECTIVELY, tame and timid and are known for their “efficiency” in serving one purpose without fail: their own personal and petty and private and undisclosed interests.

How else can they explain their failure or refusal to stop that "deal" having gone as far as it had gone until the Court action by the relevant party caused the "review" by the equally corrupt clique in control of the 2012 Games Hosting cabal-type outfit that has now "announced a halt" ?

The people across the so-called Olympic Boroughs have been being abused by the cabals of corrupt careerists and time-servers sitting in the many "offices" in the name of the respective Borough’s populations.

The Boroughs' "MPs" too are political poodles who have shown themselves to be nothing more than obsolete organs of pathetic praise for the unethical, the amoral and the most abjectly undemocratic vested interests and self-seekers in these Boroughs..[To be continued]

East London-based photographer Lucinda Douglas-Menzies today added her own tributes to Kay Jordan.
In an email to the Kay Jordan Foundation, Ms Douglas-Menzies wrote:

"I shall always be grateful to Kay Jordan for her work in this area which has enabled so many of us to be able to work in such nice and affordable workspaces in Spitalfields over the last 25 years including Links Yard where I have worked and now Heba, my present address.

At Heba you can see the visible face of all she strived for: creating a set up to enable the women to come to the classes here to improve their English and to learn sewing skills all in such a friendly and supportive atmosphere with the rental of the workrooms above at a modest cost to women running small crafts and jewellery and creative businesses to help support the work going on below.

I do hope that Heba will find the will to meet the present challenges it faces with funding cuts but feel that the memory of Kay's unstinting work in the past can only be an inspiration to make it happen!

UK satellite TV Channel tributes to KHOODEELAAR! for deadening the community against Crossrail [1]

http://bricklanenews.blogspot.com The Khoodeelaar! Campaign’s defence of the community in the East End of London has again been recognised in a factual programme broadcast by a satellite TV station from London last Sunday [02 October 2011]. Without the Khoodeelaar! Campaign against the Crossrail hole attack on the Brick Lane London E1 area, the centre of the Bangladeshi community would have been seriously damaged. This was the summary of the words spoken by R A Foisal Choudhury “Shoaib” the presenter of the “STRAIGHT DAILOGUE” programme on the Sky satellite channel 844 [“ChanneliEurope”]. The main guest on the programme was KHOODEELAAR! Campaign organiser Muhammad Haque. It is understood that the eight year long Khoodeelaar! Campaign against the CrossRail agenda would be detailed in a series of programmes in the near future. Khoodeelaar! is now asking all the supporters of the campaign to prepare their contributions for inclusion in a series of video interviews that will be recorded starting in the next week. One of the most important backers of the Khoodeelaar! campaign, Kay Jordan, will be featured with the help of documentary files that made throughout the six years that the campaign was at its most intense. The BDC is one of the most easily accessible local "communally used" centres and its easy accessibility is an undoubted symbol of Kay Jordan's genius as a community architect. She chose that description for herself and it is one that cannot be easily improved on. We shall be running a longer factual pierce on Graham Hobbs and his thoughts about the community in the East End of London soon.

Has Theresa May been manipulated too far into the era oif Nasty Party darkness? Can she survive the Jamboree posturings?

0745 [0715] GMT London Sunday 09 October 2011

© Muhammad Haque Daily Constitutional law and Ethical Commentary

Can Home Secretary Theresa May survive her about turn? Is she being manipulated into the Nasty Party darkness? Has she had enough of being thought a “Tory who is also a decent human being”?

Noting the latest perpetration of the nasty "joke", "sarcasm" in the pro-Con UK "mainstream" media "making fun" of "the cat" framed by the NeoCon Propagandists who have snared Theresa May in their trap contrived to do down all things even marginally civilised and "not"-Nasty being used by Skynews.com as an ADDED ATTRACTION in the slot on the Sunday Newspapers just before 0700 GMT.

The real tragedy is that Theresa May has now lost something very precious in any career politician’s objectively compiled records. Her intervention with that admission that many people in Britain viewed the [Maggie Thatcher] Conservative or the Tory Party as "The Nasty Party" was a genuinely civilising one. Even with the many limitations that Theresa May's own career ambitions have placed on her life, that one was so valued by the ordinary people that she was on an upward curve in public esteem immediately after that intervention.

The culmination was of course her being chosen by the Cameron-Cons for the Home Office job. But she is losing big time on that genuine credibility. As Geoffrey Robertson, QC, has said in the past week, Theresa May's condemnation of the Human Rights Act was very unwise and inappropriate. And as I have pointed out more than once in a busy period that is coincidentally also linked with a lot of proximity research into Theresa May's office, the attack on the UK's timid Human Rights Act will produce something quite unlike what the Neo Con agenda setters think they will get. It is quite likely that a debate that should have taken place in Britain about human rights, will now get underway and a legislation that is more in keeping with the Universal Declarations of more than 60 years ago than the existing HRA is, will be ushered in.

It is widely known that Party jamborees are not the same things as the “streets of Worcester” frequented by the current sephological myths-linked “Worcester Woman”. Yet nothing gets the sustained and the overbearing media imposition as a Party Jamboree performance. So Theresa May’s portrayal last week as the almost neo-Nasty Thatcherite Con Party Home Secretary railing against the Human Rights Act was the last thing that the civilised middle Britons wanted to see. But they did see it. And the descent for Theresa May from that rare sport of being considered a decent Tory may have already begun. Regardless of the fact that the Jamboree staged in Manchester was nothing to do with the actual voter intents, the damage may have been done to make a recovery harder than it would earthrise be.

As if her tirade performed against the HRA was not nasty enough, the fact that she was given this elaborately scripted task to perform the additional attack on the image of universal [for so many millions even in CONDEM-ed Britain] affection for cats has meant that Theresa May must have been placed in a desperate corner: do this, say nasty things like we do and stay in office. Or say goodbye…

It is quite likely that the opposite of what Theresa May may have been led to believe may now begin to happen.

Far from benefiting her career Ms May may begin to suffer as a result of this regressive intervention against civilised values and liberating passions.

Why Tory Tyrie is plain wrong, just as is Byllyingdone Cameron is even more wrong. The economy needs sustaining. It doesn’t need being messed up even more!

CONTINUING to examine the Channel 4 News item presented by Sarah Smith on Friday 30 September 2011 about the utterances of Chris Grayling as the stooged propagandist for the Big Biz interests who have been the real robbers of the “Benefits” £Billions blame doing the truly poor people in this country.

In the diagnostic digests that the KHOODEELAAR! Campaign against the "Big Biz agenda scam CrossRail hole attacks on the Brick Lane London E1 area...." published, the main flaw we had identified was the crassness of the Ministers and others peddling the lies for Big Business. One such peddler, who spoke for the UK Cons, was, of course, Chris Grayling. It was a name that happened to suit the linguistic sounds of the findings too. So we said "Grayling is falling again".

And so it is that the same Chris Grayling is falling to recognise that there is, despite his ingrained ignorance, an acceptance de facto among the ordinary UK public of the existence of an almost programmatic constitutional settlement within which the UK regime of the day has to [and has had to] operate in order that a semblance of legitimacy about “The UK” or about “GB” is plausibly presentable at international forums.

For it is one thing to maintain a barrage of pretexts as bargaining counters and ploys so that other EU member states make concessions and or resist any commercial temptation to take undue or unfair advantage of the UK. It is entirely another thing to constantly deny the existence of the agreements that the UK has signed.

So what Grayling was doing yesterday [Friday 30 September 2011] was what all the others in the Big Biz Club tend to do. They do down the EU by attacking the rare bits. By the “rare bits” I here refer to the very small number of constitutional tools that are universally fair or tend to be fair.

The UK has been proven to be the Scrooge in the entire EU.

And the faster the civilised participants and activists in UK "public life" realise this and put an end to this pre-historic "culture" the faster the UK can get out of the morality free rut and undemocratic, Neanderthal morass that the Department for Want and Poverty creation [DWP] has been used over the past decades to create here. That the DWP is and has been one of the most effective tools of regression has not been recognised by any of the appeared writers, researchers, commentators or "legislators".

Field work done in the area of the UK DWP across inner cities East End of London has produced stunning insights into just how backward the DWP is and how even worse the Ministers have been. Combined, they have even responsible for the theft of £Billions from UK public by Big Business which has done this by using stooged Ministers in the DWP to routinely blame the victims of their crime: the “poor” people.

Grayling is not the first pre-civilisation Minster to be in post in a DWP ministry.

The DWP is lending an additionally poverty creating hand to the Con Party by aiding and abetting the latter’s falsification project on benefit claims

© Muhammad Haque original diagnosis of the latest evidence of the UK Central Government Scrooge Department. The Department for Want and Poverty creation.

The DWP is lending an additionally poverty creating hand to the Con Party by aiding and abetting the latter’s falsification project on benefit claims by EU Nationals in the UK. As the Con party craves maximum benefits of a benefits row on the eve of an otherwise gloom-laden Party jamboree at the weekend...

2340 Hrs GMT
London Friday 30 September 2011

Sarah Smith presented a short item about the UK CON Party getting into a state about "benefits". That word, "benefits", is likely to cause no end of rows. Regardless of who is talking about it? It has a particularly strong impact when a Con Party project is floated around it. And so it was on Friday 30 September 2011. The project in need of the "benefit of a benefits row", to put it accurately, was of course the Con party's annual jamboree. It gets going on Saturday and is intensified on Sunday and made ready for the adulation that Cameron needs during the first half of the week.
A row about "benefits" is misleading enough at the best of times.
A row about "EU meddling in our internal affairs" is bound to be far worse.
And so the Con party strategists hope that this row will "benefit" them during the next few days.
The more hatred, intolerance and misgivings can be generated in the direction of the falsely promoted image of the "EU" the better it will be for the electoral purposes of the moment of the Con party following their implementation of the staged row.
And signs are that there is collusion in the manufacture of the row as the Daily Mail is leading its Saturday front page [editions seen up to 2300 GMT Friday 30 September 2011] on the very same "attack" by the EU.
The apparently sinister word "DIKTAT" is also used in the Daily Mail's splash against "EU Benefits claims imposition" on what they suggest is a "hapless, helpless" UK "surrounded by marauding hordes of benefit claimants marching towards the UK from across the perceived poorer parts of the EU"!
The Channel 4 News item [Friday 30 September 2011] on the latest staging of this routine anti-EU [façade] row pretty much put paid to the ambitions of the Con party stirrers [focussing on the Con Party jamboree attendees and hand-clappers] on this one.
As Sarah Smith said, the truth was hundreds of miles away form what the CON Party was claiming it to be.
Channel 4 News item also made a pointed reference to the untruths that the UK Department for Want and Poverty creation [DWP] has proffered to aid and abet the Coin party Propaganda item.
Channel 4 News did NOT say that the DWP had done so with the de facto approval of Robert Devereux, the “Permanent Secretary” who had been “launched” by the Cabinet secretary Gus O’Donnell with such a fulsome propaganda backup for the new top man at the DWP that even the “originators of UK Civil Service spin jobs” would feel embarrassed at the transparently dishonest contents of that Party performance by the supposedly neutral and objective mandarins in charge of the DWP.
The truth which Sarah Smith headed for but did not quite reach in the item is this: that the UK central Government Department that is admittedly the most corrupt is the DWP.
This is not my conclusion.
This is the recurring finding by the otherwise very tame “Select Committee” of MPs on the DWP.
So the latest Con Party con against the involuntarily impoverished is already coming apart. Not only has the DWP been caught lying about the £2 Billion “loss that they claim would be “suffered” by “the UK” if EU nationals in the UK were allowed to claim “benefits in the UK” but the EU has already hit back at the banality of the bluff in the name “GB”.
As if that were not proof enough that the UK CON party strategists were morally and ethically and constitutionally bankrupt the comparative figures that Sarah Smith presented in the item about rates of benefits in some major partner countries in the EU showed that no self-respecting “claimant” would consider the UK benefit rates to be worthy of their ambitions!
Most other countries paid far higher rates of benefits to their nationals than the UK was doing!
Even on those figures, the UK DWP was typical of the scrooge-mentality that many of CON party propagandists claim has been left far behind in this country!
