Prince Charles Political Role Exposed
Prince Charles and Duchess of Cornwall.
The Prince of Wales’s role as a political dissident was exposed in the High Court today in an attempt by the Prince to keep his private diaries secret.
It was revealed by a former Private Secretary that Charles sees himself as a “political dissident”. His views on everything from alternative medicine to hunting and architecture conflict with the prevailing political culture, he believes. He regards it a matter of honour to speak his mind in these areas.
However, in the British constitution, a Monarch is non-political and remains above the cut and thrust of day-to-day debate and decision-making in order to act as a unifying influence on the nation. In his long stint as heir to the throne, the Prince has shown no inclination to adopt this position, as has his mother, the Queen.
The Prince’s lawyers told a High Court judge he is entitled to keep his personal documents confidential in the same way as the “humblest private citizen”.
Hugh Tomlinson QC, representing the Prince, who also wants seven other diaries copied by a “disloyal former employee” returned, told the court: “We are not dealing with state secrets.
“We are dealing with an ordinary type of personal journal of the type that any citizen might make in respect of a foreign trip, recording thoughts and impressions.”
Mr Tomlinson said the Prince recognised that his role in the life of the nation would attract comment and criticism.
“What he says, however, is that like everyone else - from the humblest private citizen to the highest public figure - he is entitled to keep his personal documents private.”
The case continues.
I am Peter Horsley and was Royal Equerry to Prince Philip in the 1950´s. During this time I experienced very strange incidents at Buckingham Palace.
I would like you to come together and help me gather the factual evidence needed to help Mr. Alfayed and the Met Police force. The following information needs your support and help in finding people who can verify these claims:
1) Dr. Jack Miller, former master of Churchill college, Cambs, UK has information about the death of Princess Diana.
2) He allegedly works for the Security Services and owns an accident investigations company called RB Hawkins Cambridge.
3) In September 1997 he told colleagues at Churchill college he was suffering from Pagets Disease.
4) Dr. Miller was a council member of the Winston Churchill memorial trust http://www.wcmt.org.uk at the same time of Sir Richard Vickers.
5) General Sir Richard Vickers was also equerry to Queen Elizabeth in 1956, shortly after me. I totally distrust this man but he has very powerful friends in the British Military.
6) I also believe that Sir Richard Vickers is also in charge of the Queens Private army that was formed by Lord Louis Mountbattern.
7) The private army is funded by funds from the Winston Churchill memorial trust and was involved in monitoring Diana before her death. (note: the link to Nicholas Soames who I also distust)
I really need your help and you are welcome to tell your friends and anyone in the media. We need to do everything possible to help the police and bring people to justice.

Thank you for your comment, Peter.
We are not an investigative website, however, merely a relayer of what appears in the news. We take care not to strike attitudes in these case, but to present a balanced view, with the occasional touch of humour or tease.
You would really need a private investigator with experience in Royal affairs.
