Gentleman's Clubs & The British Establishment Revealed

[Shoestring]

Here is the latest entry I have written for my blog, for anyone who is interested, all about the nature of the British "establishment." I quote from a great little book I just recently came across about the death of Princess Diana, written by Simon Regan, the former editor of Scallywag magazine. I think this information also gives us some important insights into the kinds of people who are behind false-flag attacks such as the 7/7 bombings.

The British Establishment Revealed

In his 1998 book Who Killed Diana? Simon Regan presents a clear definition of what the British establishment is. He also describes a "Super-Establishment" -- a ruling elite that, despite being entirely unelected, retains significant power over how Britain is governed.

Simon Regan was an investigative journalist who, after having worked with various newspapers in Britain and overseas, in 1989 founded the anti-establishment magazine Scallywag. He was the editor of this magazine during its short existence in the early 1990s.

In Who Killed Diana? Regan writes: "Only when I launched Scallywag and really began looking into how Britain is run did I ever even envisage how manipulated we all are. And how innocent we are to that manipulation." [1] To learn about the establishment, and how government really takes place, is to learn about this manipulation of the general public.

THE PYRAMID OF POWER
To define what the "establishment" is, Regan outlines a "pyramid theory" of how British society is made up. At the base of the pyramid, forming its wide foundation, "is the proletariat--ordinary people like you and me." According to Regan: "In a democracy, ideally, the basic structure dominates the rest of the pyramid. Without us, at least, it is logical to suppose that the entire edifice would topple."

Next up the pyramid, on the middle stratum, "are the people who appear to make the country tick. The universities and academics, the church, the City and the (in particular Tory) press." Then above this is the government itself, including "top-level police officers, the judiciary [and] senior echelons of the armed forces." It is in this level of the pyramid "that the old school tie, gentlemen's clubs, and probably the Freemasons are most prevalent."

To most people, this government level of the pyramid represents the "establishment." However, there is a topmost level above it, which really controls the country. "The base of the pyramid hardly knows they exist." [2]

THE SUPER-ESTABLISHMENT AND THE ROLE OF THE INTELLIGENCE SERVICES
Regan writes that it is Whitehall, where most government ministries are located, "which really runs the country with a close-knit Mafia-like clique, which forms a sort of uncontrolled Super-Establishment." This "Super-Establishment" is made up of "a handful of powerful, but low-key, City brokers and financiers; definitely the top brains at the Foreign Office, the Treasury, the Ministry of Defence and the Trade Department. Key figures in the security forces--although not necessarily the top person--would be included, and so would at least one key member of the prime minister's secretariat." At least until recently, it would also have included the top courtiers who "run" the royal family.

While the police and judiciary might not be directly part of this clique, "through the Home Office they can certainly be manipulated." The Super-Establishment's power is based upon its ability to manipulate the level below it--the individuals that most people believe are governing our country. The elected government, in fact, "is almost irrelevant" to the overall power of the Super-Establishment.

The world in which the Super-Establishment exists is "a grey and murky world in which sensitive matters of state are planned and executed in gentlemen's clubs (Reform and Oxford and Cambridge preferred). It is where manipulation plots are hatched. Whether it be manipulation of a certain minister towards a certain viewpoint, or the wholesale orchestration of a Foreign Office ploy to bring down a foreign government." Regan calls this secretive form of government "twilight politics," because "it never enjoys the slightest glare of sunlight. And if it is ever in danger of doing so, manipulation normally sorts it out."

Regan continues that it is "very much within the interests" of the Super-Establishment "to protect the status quo." In fact, it is "almost the divine mission of the secret services in the UK to protect the status quo, and hitherto it has been their full intention to thwart anyone who tried to disrupt it. It is a scary combination of unofficial officialdom and a blind trust that they have got it right and everyone else has got it wrong and is in need of their 'protection.'" [3]

THE POWER OF THE SUPER-ESTABLISHMENT
Regan concludes: "[T]he actual existence of the Super-Establishment is not a flight of fancy. It really does exist. It is entirely manipulative and, even under the guise of democracy and being 'answerable' to the government," it exercises "a great deal of power behind the scenes." Even the British monarchy "is a sham power. All of the royals, but particularly [Prince] Charles, are constantly manipulated by a small clique of very powerful mandarins and courtiers who in turn work hand-in-glove with top civil servants in such ministries as the Foreign Office." [4]

It is no wonder that the world is in such a mess.

Nice one shoestring - one in the fine old (missing believed wiped) Eddie tradition.

One of the pleasures of this forum is being reminded of incicive bits of journalismn that I had almost forgotten. Simon Regan was a pre Murdoch writer for the News of the World who like so many of this country's best and most fearless writers and photographers was sacked as part of the Murdoch nightmare takeover. Colleagues of mine that now work at Murdoch papers describe an atmosphere these days of dread with all humour and joi de vivre gone from the offices. Journalists prefer to work in silence in case they let slip something that colleagues can use against them. Such is the hideous cancer which is the Murdoch virus.

And as for the book/pamphlet you mention - I remember reading here first from this excellent source that Di and Dodi were definately going to hold a press conference immediately they arrived back in the UK to announce their engagement.

Regan was sued out of existence and died a few years ago - AFTER penning this little masterpiece. I saw it advertised on the old scallywag website and posted off a cheque for it. Surely its about time this little book was published in full up on the web??

DIANA CRASH 'WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT'
Leading barrister claims Diana's death was not an accident

PRINCESS Diana’s death was not an accident and she was right to fear for her safety, a leading barrister claimed yesterday.
http://www.dailyexpress.co.uk/posts/view/124678

Eminent QC Michael Mansfield insisted that Diana’s belief that she was under state surveillance was “entirely justified” – and that her fears for a loss of liberty came true as Britain sleepwalked into a " Big Brother" reality!!!

Qualifications
BA Hons. History/Philosophy, Keele University
Hon. Fellow [University of Kent]
Hon. LLB [Hertfordshire University, Keele University, South Bank University, University of Westminster and the University of Ulster, University of Kent]
Visiting Professor of Law [University of Westminster]
Professor of Law [City University]
Bencher, Honourable Society of Gray’s Inn

The barrister said the princess had a “credible and understandable basis” for her worry that she was being spied on because of the threat she posed to the Royal Family and the Establishment, particularly when she campaigned against landmines.
He also claimed there remained many unanswered questions over the events leading to her death.
Mr Mansfield said: “It was utterly reasonable for the Princess to suppose that Big Brother was looking over her shoulder, that her telephone communications were being tapped and her movements were being tracked.
“Diana’s fears for her safety and her preoccupation with surveillance were thoroughly canvassed, and in my view were found to be entirely justified.”
Mr Mansfield outlined his concerns about Diana’s death and the loss of civil liberties in his autobiography, extracts of which were published yesterday.
The 67-year-old lawyer, who represented Harrods tycoon Mohamed Al Fayed at the inquest into the deaths of his son Dodi and the princess, said there was now CCTV on every corner, cameras tracking cars, satellites tracing mobile phones, credit and debit card records showing people’s movements and databases recording medical details and welfare benefits.
In effect, he argued, we are all living Diana’s nightmare.
Diana often complained she was being monitored but the authorities never took her seriously, even after the release of the “Squidgygate” tapes of her talking to her friend James Gilbey.
“Unfortunately, her predictions came to pass – and span the very period of our history that was the focus of George Orwell’s attentions,” Mr Mansfield said, referring to the novel 1984.
The liberal lawyer, who has worked on dozens of high profile cases, condemned Government plans for a centralised database monitoring every call and email.
He said: “That these surreal proposals should even be contemplated shows how far beyond Orwell’s worst fears we have travelled.”
In his book, Memoirs of a Radical Lawyer, published on Monday by Bloomsbury at £20, Mr Mansfield insisted that the inquest into the 1997 deaths of Diana and Dodi Fayed in a Paris underpass, which along with a police investigation cost £10million, had broken new ground.
He said: “I found it difficult simply to accept that what happened in Paris was ‘just one of those tragic things’.
“Of course it might have been, but then that’s what ‘they’ always hope we will think.
“Judging whether a hidden hand is at work is always difficult, but I prefer a healthy and inquisitive assessment of the authorised version, and for me it was mere serendipity to be approached a year after the crash and asked to represent Mohamed Al Fayed for the purposes of an inquest.
“I have always believed that whatever had caused the crash, it was not an accident. And, as it transpired, that belief was shared by the jury at the inquest.”
He described how the jury blamed the crash on the drunk driver of Diana and Dodi’s Mercedes, Henri Paul, who also died, and also on unidentified drivers in following vehicles – but not the paparazzi. He said: “On April 7 2008 the jury did not decide it was a tragic accident but returned a verdict of unlawful killing by the drivers of both the Mercedes and the following vehicles.
“The ‘following vehicles’ element in the verdict was an aspect that very few commentators picked up on, or bothered with, and mostly its implications were not understood.
“In so far as anyone took any notice, they thought it was merely a reference to the chasing pack of paparazzi. It wasn’t: there were other vehicles clearly present but never traced and not driven by members of the paparazzi.”
He told how witnesses described seeing a motorcyclist directly behind the Mercedes just before it crashed, a dark car in front of the Mercedes blocking it in and a white Fiat Uno which caught the car a glancing blow but has never been traced.
His book highlights other issues never “resolved by evidence, or reflected in the verdict”. They include the fate of a box of missing personal papers belonging to Diana, the mystery driver of the white Fiat, what Henri Paul was doing during an unaccounted-for three hours before the crash and how he came to have large sums of money paid into several of his bank accounts in the three months before the crash.
Mr Mansfield also highlighted official sensitivity over Diana’s desire to work as an ambassador for Tony Blair’s government, campaigning against the international trade in landmines.

Charles says no to Johnnie Walker

Prince Charles is obviously a single malt man. The Scotsman reports that the Prince snubbed an approach to offer his support to a campaign to save workers employed at a Johnnie Walker plant in Kilmarnock, which the owner Diageo plans to close. Is the blended whisky not to his taste?

[Pugwash]

Forgive me for coming late to this topic. And I hesitate to entertain anything to do with the death of Princess Diana, nonetheless...

There remains nothing to change my mind in that the death of Princess Diana was other than an accident. Simon Regan's account with reference to the establishment and the support that it is given by the secret services does is in my opinion a more than plausible scenario.
Looking back at the intrigue fueled by the press coupled with secret service involvement regarding the death of princess diana, albeit after the fact I offer the thought that this gave a double benefit to the establishment. The first, to send a clear message to the Royal Family that despite any influences they might hold by using the peerage system to their advantage, ultimate power lies with the establishment and not the crown. Secondly, the subtle implications directed at the Royal Family and misinformation generated that gave rise to calls for inquires by the public and joined by the deceased relatives. Such inquires were always going to fail because there was nothing to substantiate allegations. Thus in the mind of public inquires are not required, they prove nothing, they are waste of money. So when investigations are really required...
I would submit that events linking to Britain's own secret services (directly or by acquiescence) to stifle the media are not difficult to determine. The dodgy photo's appearing in the Mirror leading to an end of its anti-war stance, who would have both means and motivation to produce such photos. The death of Dr Kelly and covert actions leading to judicial procedings effectively gagging the BBC.
These events together with Lockerbie and the 7th of July events all point to involvement of the secret services of other nations.
Could it be that the cosy British establishment has been infiltrated by the Global elite. The establisment as strong as ever, but the British element reduced to at best the second level of the pyramid.

[TonyGosling]

Ever since the disclosure that Kim Philby and posibly Roger Hollis were working for the Russians Britain has been well known to have a very weak counter-intelligence branch - MI5.
Therefore the secret services of most countries believe that they can work here almost with impunity and that, unlike the impression given bt BBC Spooks the UK is a soft touch these days.
Rightly proven since the CIA were all over the Lockerbie crime scene within hours of the 747 coming down and able to twist the grief to their own purpose ... for a long time.
They don't seem to have any grasp that Britain's so-called allies like the US and Israelis could be working hard to undermine our interests as a nation and people.
To that extent they are traitors to those that they are supposed to work for and I imagine MI5 must be rather a dispiriting place to work with some kind of intelligence Pinay Cercle led NWO being seen as almost inevitable by many staff.

Just look at these photographers in black.
Scaring the life out of Diana.
