Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

Bilderberg




Years ago, I read Jon Ronson's book "Them" in which he tags along with various extremists and conspiracy nuts and tries to get to just what the heck it is that makes them tick. OK, so you write-off the White Supremacists, and David Eyck who thinks that QE2 is a alien lizard in a flesh suit (literally). There's a very frightening chapter about the shootings at Ruby Ridge too.

And then there's the chapter about trying to figure out just what the people who attend the annual Bilderberg Group meeting are up to. Bilderbergers are comprised of top governmental and NGO leaders, royalty, and corporate giants. They meet in total secrecy, lock down miles of turf to preserve that secrecy, and not one of the attendees has broken ranks and spilled their guts. No-one knows just what they're up to and anyone asked denies attending or that the meeting occurred.

This year, the Guardian sent Charlie Skelton to Greece to see if he could get to the bottom of it. He's done a blog here and the poor man is slowly losing his mind as a result.
