While you pondered the meaning of words, gold paused. There are no believers left.

Nazi Sympathisers
Inside The Elite British
Establishment Revealed

A list of leading Nazi sympathisers in the British establishment at the outbreak of the Second World War has at last been put on public view.

The infamous Red Book, which reveals the membership of the upper-class Right Club, was written more than 60 years ago. It offers a chilling insight into the virulence of the anti-Semitism which was rife among peers, MPs, knights of the realm and other leading society figures at that time. Those listed include the 5th Duke of Westminster, the second Baron Redesdale (the father of the Mitford sisters) and the famous aviator Lord Sempill who was later suspected of spying for the Japanese. Others named are The Earl of Galloway, Lord Carnegie, Lord Ronald Graham and William Joyce, who later achieved notoriety as Lord Haw-Haw, broadcasting propaganda from Germany .

The Right Club was set up by Captain Archibald Ramsay MP, an outspoken anti-Semite, a few months before the war in May 1939 "to oppose and expose the activities of Organised Jewry". In meetings chaired by the Duke of Wellington it sought to influence government policy to stop war with Germany.

Ramsay drew up the secret membership list in his distinctive spiky handwriting. There are 135 names on the men's list and 100 on the women's. In the women's list is Anna Wolkoff, who was later accused of spying with American cypher clerk Tyler Kent. Also listed is Majorie Amor, one of several MI5 agents who had infiltrated the club.

Interleaved in the Red Book are a number of extraordinary documents relating to Ramsay and the Right Club. These included a manuscript of his vicious anti-semitic rhyme "Land of Dope and Jewry", hand-written by Ramsay on House of Commons notepaper the day after war was declared. There is also a letter from the man who was to become Lord Haw-Haw, apologising for being able to afford only five shillings (25p) as his membership fee.

Hi DD,
that is the problem with the English language!It does not mean what is said most of the time and therefore it is no wonder if the top dog does not know what 'IS' means.Not having a formal education in the 'ingrish speach' I sometimes wonder what is meant by the babbeling on this site and how I should take it.Gold is still showing some sign of life and in my opinion will live as long as there women and conceded men :-).(they do wear gold, don't they?) The political and economic uncertainty in the world makes it still imperative to hold something of value,which does not deteriorate with time, can easily be transported to another more hospitable place and is always desired by some people.
People born and/or raised in USA or Canada will never recognize this point as they never had to deal with that fact for the last hundred years that the government could be overthrown or overrun by a neighbor and hereby the currency invalidated.But then there is inflation. Caused by supplying more and more credit and paper even the US$ will suffer the indignancy of going down the gutter, if the believers of high tech like it not.And the good citizen of the USA who are so towering in their believe it cannot happen here will be be shocked when it does so.Remember, gold does not change, only its price may, but then the sorry state of the gold price is only a concern for the traders mostly, not the holders thereof and not even the producers, as the producers can just stop producing it if they are unhappy with it.(I would)

<<It is too late to prevent the bubble. The task now is to manage it and ensure that the next panic is not followed by a major recession. The threat posed by Wall Street should loom large on the agenda when world leaders meet. Its absence from these discussions is not rational, but a symptom of childish fear. The hope is that if we do not look, the problem will go away. >>
