In 2010, Robin Saikia published for the first time the vaunted Red Book - The Membership List of the Right Club - 1939.
I have read the book and found it extremely disappointing.
There are about 250 names listed in the book (rough quick count 244), some of whom came as a surprise - for example, an old friend of mine Brinsley le Poer Trench, 8th Earl of Clancarty (I never knew this about him). A few are household names, some are very prominent establishment figures of their time. But there really aren't any shocks. Which came as a surprise.
Almost 20 years ago I knew of someone who had a copy of the membership list of the Red Book, which had been given to him by a good friend, a Russian emigre who was a regular visitor at the Russian Tea Room in Kensington, London (where Le Poer Trench lived also) where members of the Right Club met regularly. I made a concerted effort to convince the person concerned to provide me with a copy, but without success.
The problem with the Saikia book, is that the actual Ramsay Red Book listed almost 6,000 names, including Prince George, Duke of Kent who was dispatched by the father of my source under instructions from Churchill. Prince George died in a flying boat "accident" in Scotland in July 1941. The official narrative was that the prince, an officer in the RAF was on a "secret mission" when the accident occurred. However, the secret mission was as an emissary for the British Establishment to conclude a peace agreement with Hitler to overthrow Churchill, and join Nazi Germany in taking on the Soviet Union.
The real problem I have is that with the publication of Saikia non book, there will be no release of the real membership list when the 100 year rule expires, circa 2039 - now only 25 years hence.
What we have, I suspect, is a perpetual cover-up of this entire affair because the approx. 5,750 missing names from the membership roster are still viewed as being significant enough names to still rock the nation to its core.
Therefore: welcome mushrooms one and all! You are to be kept in the dark and fed bullshit instead.
PS, The Russians knew everything that was happening on Britain in this respect. Prince George's homosexual lover was the Russian spy Anthony Blunt.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
