Quote:Taxpayers are likely to have to pay millions towards the cost of policing the secretive Bilderberg meeting of the global elite due to gather in Hertfordshire next week.Read more: telegraph.co.uk
The clandestine meeting of royalty, prime ministers and business chiefs is taking place in Britain for the first time since 1998, sparking fears of "violence and disturbance" by protesters.
The Bilderberg organisers, who include Tory Cabinet minister Ken Clarke, do not release a guest list but a roll-call of luminaries are expected to descend on a luxury Watford hotel from June 6, forcing police to step up security.
Hertfordshire police have refused to release the cost of security for the event, which has previously drawn anti-capitalist demonstrators in other locations around the world.
However, they are in talks with the Home Office about a grant for "unexpected or exceptional costs" that is only given out if it threatens the stability of the force's policing budget. The final bill would have to total more than one per cent of the police force's overall spend - or about £1.8 million - for the grant to be successful.
The invitation-only Bilderberg meetings are attended by around 140 members of the international elite.
This is most assuredly going to make British taxpayers livid. It's awesome telegraph even covered this story. A few short years ago, the press would not touch these meetings. Alternative media has been responsible for bringing about an about face from the MSM and that's a positive development for most - except the Bilderburgs.
Absolutely!
