Will Crossrail hole-backer Ken Livingstone be held to account by the ‘elected’ ‘GLA’ members today! Hardly! And that is the least of the failures of this grand, multi £Billion outfit that has been reduced to a democracy-deficit S***ty Hall instead of being the [promised!!] citadel for democratic accountability and courage to tell the truth for the people of London…! _The importance of the charade, also known as the scheduled ‘questions’ to the current ‘London mayor’ Ken Livingstone due to be staged today [Wednesday 12 December 2007] at the ‘Greater London Assembly’ – a routine that has scarcely caused Livingstone to show respect to basic democratic duties that he has owed to tell the truth about what he does with all the public cash and all the powers that Tony Blair unwisely or perniciously cynically made available to him - must not be exaggerated. Neither the words uttered this week by the Lib Dumbs on the GLA nor the inane words as expressed so far by the GLA Tories go anywhere near holding the ‘elected mayor’ to account on behalf of the people of London. _Both ‘mainstream’ ‘opposition’ parties have behaved, on the whole as Livingstone’s poodles on all major issues. _Hardly surprising here that Khoodeelaar! notes their collusion and unnecessary abdication of duty to challenge Livingstone over the absurd and the grotesquely false and untruthful claims he made promoting the CrossRail hole plot…. _That role as played by the GLA Lib Dumbs and the GLA Tories has condemned them to the position of moral and democratic deficit from where they cannot legitimately claim to have a ‘record’ of robust demands and questioning of Livingstone’s uses – and abuses- of office. _Sure they can stage pathetic stunts for the benefit of the limited media crews. _
But they cannot sustain any claim they may wish to make of being really opposed to his abuses of office….
_The ‘Greens’ too have been acting as his stooges. _Having sold their ‘political souls’ to the devil incarnate in office, the so-called opposition parities on the Ghastly Liable Assembly of time-servers now prance about pretending to be rigorous questioners! _And the devil in power at Shitty Hall knows their secrets. _How they have sold London people down the drain for years by constantly colluding with the conniving Ken! There is no chance of real accountability being secured for the people of London under current arrangements at the 'GLA'. _
Why? _Because all the GLA post holders have acted as if it is a favour they are doing to the people by even appearing to notice what is being printed in the London commuter paper the ‘Evening Standard’! They have not questioned Livingstone on any of his major failures.
And there have been too many. _
Not the least of which is Livingstone’s act of organized cruelty against animals in London.
And so the GLA ‘opposition’ members are not going to do so today, over the latest revelations. _Livingstone has shown by his parading of three obscure – and incredibly described ‘black community leaders’ [!!!] – on Tuesday that he has made sufficiently ‘clever’ ‘political investments [!!!]’ over the years to be able to produce that sort of parade in order to keep being allowed to claim that he is at once English, European, African, Asian… anything that suits the moment, Livingstone can adjust himself to being that. Whatever his career and ego plans need and require…
There is nothing that anyone at the GLA [in context] can say or do to stop him…. _He is the most powerful man at the London S***ty Hall [=’City Hall’] that Tony Blair built – for the housing of the ego that Livingstone has evidently become! All mayors of big cities get to become… this big! _Hush now. The mighty Ken Livingstone is about to speak… and to defame, to smear and to deny! Any dictatorial holder of office in any of the typically remote ‘far flung’ republics away from the ‘democratic Britain’ would be proud to be able to enjoy the adulation of the ‘free’ press that Livingstone has enjoyed in the past two terms as ‘mayor of London’!
