David Craig, on June 5th, 2013As you may know, there is a Bilderberg meeting at The Grove in Watford, England from 6 to 9 June 2013. You can see what I believe to be the guest list below. The Bilderberg Group never publish the results of their meetings and insist they just come together to exchange views. Some people (readers of Dan Brown books?) believe that the Biderberg Groups are Illuminati or Freemasons or something like that plotting to take over the world and establish a NWO (New World Order) with themselves in charge. If so, there not doing a very good job so far. Others think they are shape-shifting reptilian humanoids from planet Draco.
As for me, I’m not sure what they’re up to. But it seems unlikely that so many important, wealthy and influential people spend four days of their extremely expensive time meeting if they were just discussing the weather and the latest football results. So why are they getting together? Search me:

Ken Clarke, Ed Balls, Mandy, Shirley Williams, don’t exactly sound like the Masters of the Universe to me. Still, I expect they’re up to no good.
[…] For conspiracy theorists – here are the Bilderberg meeting attendees By David Craig, on June 5th, 2013 […]
First of all, it cannot by definition be a conspiracy ‘theory’ if in fact the world’s elite are actually in fact in attendance ie it is thus conspiracy FACT. Secondly, there are many attendees who choose not to have their name published on the lists.
Secondly, what the elite’s scheme, plot and plan (which then comes to fruition through politicians, can and has, to a certain extent be known through supersleuth Bildaberg journalist Jim Tucker’s Bilderberg Diary – events such as the decision to ‘get rid of Margaret Thatcher’ as she refused to give up the pound for the euro.
Do not take us ‘useless eaters’ as fools. We know what you are up to. When elite’s meet in secret to dicuss self serving agendas which remain secret, every year since the 1950s, that is a conspiracy.
Let us hope you are not going to practice censorship in these comments – that would be a conspiracy.
Where is the rest of the second comment from UKIP above??
Appreciate the great writeup. It in reality was once any activity bank account the item. Start looking leading-edge so that you can extra added flexible on your part! Furthermore, how should we sustain some sort of correspondence?
