If EVEN BARRY Sheerman can condemn BBC hoax research, surely KHOODEELAAR! has correctly exposed BBC touting role for big business crossrail!
The BBC has touted for Big Business Crossrail for the past 5 years.
And in doing so the BBC executives have proven beyond doubt that they are quite prepared to lie for the Govt. that has been stooged by Big Business whose greed the Govt. serves.
Now Barry Sheerman [an MP in the Dennis Skinner mode, except that Sheerman has got far less mentions than Skinner. But Sheerman is as adept a time server as Skinner has been] is not an independent thinker.. He is part of Brown fronted Blaired regime. Yet HE was able to fault the BBC today.

KHOODEELAAR! is telling Brown again! Don't ignore sound advice against debt-creation.
FROM The Times online 11 December 2008:
"Peer Steinbrück
The German Finance Minister regards Britain's borrowing binge as a reckless solution to the recession

Germany's Finance Minister Peer Steinbruck
David Charter, Brussels
As a smart and plain-speaking political operator who never goes anywhere without his pocket chess computer, Peer Steinbrück is well aware of the difference between strategy and tactics.
Unlike Gordon Brown, the German Finance Minister has jealously guarded his hard-won reputation for fiscal caution throughout the economic crisis and is not about to make a rash tactical sacrifice at this stage of the game.
Prudence remains his Queen and Mr Steinbrück, who cut Germany’s deficit last year with a tough budget, sees the rush to borrow heavily in Britain as a reckless gambit.
The son of an architect born in Hamburg, the 61-year-old former civil servant in the West German Ministry of Construction rose to the top of regional politics in Germany’s coal and steel heartland of North Rhine-Westphalia in 2002 before taking the reins of Europe’s largest economy in 2005.

Brown hits back at German criticism of rescue plan
Analysis: Is Peer Steinbruck right?
Married with three children, he is no stranger to controversy although colleagues say that he saves his most caustic remarks for private conversations.
Even so, he caused a diplomatic incident with an outspoken attack on neighbouring Switzerland earlier this year in a row over its tax haven status, saying that he wanted to “use the whip” against the country. The indignant Swiss premier said that “one does not treat a partner country in such a way” and Mr Brown must be feeling the same after another dose of Mr Steinbrück’s forthright views.
But the US has also come in for criticism from the German finance supreme for its role in precipitating the economic downturn.
“The world will never be as it was before the crisis,” he said. “The United States will lose its superpower status in the world financial system. It does not mean that the dollar will lose its function as a reserve currency but it will be supplemented by the yen, the euro and also by the yuan. Over the next ten years, we will be dealing with four big, important currencies.”
No mention of the pound, then, from a Social Democrat nominally on the same side of the fence as Mr Brown but who, in Germany’s left-right coalition government, stands firmly behind his conservative Chancellor Angela Merkel’s tough-minded view of the world.
HAVE YOUR SAY
At last, someone prepared to speak up for sound money. Where's Milton Friedman when you need him? Where's MV = PQ? Brown and King are not creating a fiscal stimulus, they are prolonging the downturn. We'll end up back at the IMF - like last time Labour faced a recession and applied Keynes.
