A typical example was Anthony Glees' book on 'British intelligence and Communist Subversion': "Rothschild (was) remarkably intimate with people subsequently proven to be secret Communists, and Blunt was a major Communist mole". (1) In a gesture of loyalty, one of his old 'pupils', Robin Butler, now the Cabinet Secretary, organised a reunion dinner ...

... this time the Cambridge group were routinely and semi-derisively represented by Young Turk journalists such as Knightley (who, as an Australian, had few deferential inclinations towards British elites) as having demonstrated the need for social and political change in Britain. From 1963 onwards, after Blunt's outing by Michael Straight, curiously coinciding with Philby's by Flora Solomon and Rothschild, some members of the British upper classes knew of Blunt's role and the subsequent offer of immunity. Though not, until much later, Wilson, the Labour Prime Minister, nor his Law Officers, the Attorney General and the Solicitor General. The Lord Chancellor, Gerald Gardiner, and Elwyn Jones were kept uninformed for ten years: ...

... an February 5, 1881, when Rhodes and Stead organised a secret society of which Rhodes had been dreaming for sixteen years. In this secret society Rhodes was to be leader; Stead, Brett (Lord Esher), and Milner were to form an executive committee; Arthur (Lord) Balfour, (Sir) Harry Johnston, Lord Rothschild, Albert (Lord) Grey, and others were listed as potential members of a 'Circle of Initiates'; while there was to be an outer circle known as the 'Association of Helpers' (later organised by Milner as the Round Table organisation) .( 5) Alfred Milner, governor-general and high commissioner in South Africa in the ...

Memoirs from Lord Rothschild An exquisite example of how the British State operates is to be found in the droll but thin volume of memoirs from Lord Rothschild (he of Think Tank fame), Random Variables (Collins, London 1984) This on page 75: P.M."would you give me an example of the type of problem you want the Unit ...

... Ed Miliband; and Downing Street advisors including Andrew Adonis and Geoff Mulgan. The conference, the Times told us, was held in 'the Elizabethan splendour of Hartwell House in Buckinghamshire'. In The Sunday Times of 22 September 2002, 'Rothschild bankrolls Mandelson think tank', we learned that Mandelson's Policy Network is being funded by Sir Evelyn de Rothschild, the multi-millionaire banker, apparently to the tune of £250,00- small change to Rothschild whose personal fortune, The Sunday Times told us, is estimated at around £500 million. The donation was apparently the work of Rothschild's wife Lynn Forester, a friend of Bill Clinton and part of 'New York's Democratic Party elite' ...

Edward Heath gets a lot of attention. He "can be shown to be under Soviet control through Lord Rothschild" (notice the 'it can be shown' again). This, I presume, is a reference to the '5th man' story which surfaced in 1986 during the early fall-out and disinformation coming from the Peter Wright case in Australia and must be related, based upon Mr Heath's appointment of Rothschild to head of the Central Policy Review ...

... Rhodes Scholarship's role in the UK/US relationship in any mainstream journal. A minor example of that network was given in the Times obituary (14 July 1984) of one M.J. Davies, born in South Africa, a Rhodes Scholar, who had a career in British colonial administration between 1940 and 1962. In a profile of Lord Rothschild (he of 'Think Tank' fame) by Peter Hennessy (Times 22 May 1984) Rothschild is described as "a modern-day version of Lord Milner, the charismatic imperialist whose proteges ran large chunks of the Empire in the first half of this century." Substitute the Round Table network for Milner's 'charisma'- one thing he plainly ...

... in 1882 the Chamber claimed the right to have a say in the raising and spending of government revenues- to the horror of many Europeans on the spot. The aspirations of Arabi's movement should have been acceptable to a politician with Gladstone's record. But he was frightened, along with most of the political and financial elite in London. Lord Rothschild, having presided over a reorganisation of the debt in 1879, began to panic, as did the sixty members of Parliament whose personal fortunes were tied up in Egypt. It did not seem possible that Egyptians were responsible enough to look after their own money and concern grew that if Arabi had his way the debts would be repudiated. ...

... this is really what our authors believe, they cannot hope to persuade us that a 'secret state' so divided against itself could have frustrated Wilson's cabinets and endangered his hold on the premiership. Instead of ending the book with Wilson's resignation in 1976, a new conspiracy is unrolled and a new victim smeared in the person of the late Lord Rothschild, who is alleged to have been used by Oldfield, the head of MI6, 'to hit back at MI5... and reactivate [Peter] Wright' (p. 326). This dubious theory rests upon the uncertain foundation provided by Private Eye, Chapman Pincher and Anthony Cavendish, who had left the service of MI6 ...

... no role that I can see, and about which Riley has written elsewhere at greater length. Riley is determined that Philby, while in Beirut, continued to work for what he insists on calling the RIS (Russian Intelligence Service) but has virtually no evidence to back up this view. There is some speculation about the allegiance of Lord Rothschild which has been floating around in certain sections of the British Right for about 45 years since the late and unlamented Kenneth de Courcy first alleged that Rothschild was a Soviet agent. But apart from that- I basically don't 'get' this book. If there is someone reading this with more knowledge- and more interest- in the never-ending ...
