RETURN: Burrell is being called back

Friday February 22,2008

By Julia White for express.co.uk

FORMER royal butler Paul Burrell has been asked to return to the Princess Diana inquest to explain discrepancies over his evidence.

Coroner Lord Justice Scott Baker has called for the ex-aide to return to the witness box following claims by a national newspaper that his evidence to the hearing was not the whole truth.

In a video recording obtained by the newspaper, Mr Burrell apparently said he's held back certain facts and introduced "red herrings" during his evidence at the High Court.

A spokesman for the inquest said: "The coroner has asked Mr Burrell to return to court to explain discrepancies between the evidence he gave to the inquest and the material which is contained in the transcripts of the recording taken by the newspaper.”

IAN BURNETT QC: "THE QUESTION ARISES OF HOW, IF YOU ARE RIGHT IN SAYING THE SIS DOES NOT CONTEMPLATE ASSASSINATION ...

24.02.08, 12:43am


... one of its officers could have raised the possibility and committed it to writing"

... GOOD QUESTION!

... Then we can ask about all the insinuations of the inquest being a 'farce' and a 'circus' ...

... On WHICH SIDE is the 'farce' and 'circus'?

... The obvious, EXTREMELY GRAVE IMPLICATIONS indicate that rogue cells within SIS could even CHANGE the course of the history of the British Isles with simply ONE order from a hidden despot or dictator at any time!
- Now we know there is no accountability whatsoever, when that very writing can all be consigned to a shredder!

BURRELL ASKED TO RETURN TO INQUEST

23.02.08, 11:31pm

I too thought that Diana's "rock" had only her best interest at heart. Now I think differently. I do wonder what happened to make him change, or was his intention to make money anyway he could? I hope that in my lifetime the truth comes out as to what really happened. I think that this was not just an accident. I still remember the night it happened. As the news reports came out it started out that the driver was not drunk, then with each report the the amount of alcohol in his system increased until the number was so ridiculous that I knew there were problems with the accounting of the event. I still miss Diana and wonder how different it all would have been had the "accident" not happened.

FOR THE RECORD:

23.02.08, 10:30pm


... Back in 1976, in Bristol, it was my destiny to have to go into a bedroom every morning and wake up 4 little mentally handicapped kids in a dormitory and get them ready for breakfast and school. One hapless little girl of about seven had always been playing with her own faeces and made balls of it; plastering it everywhere and leaving it caked on her own hands.
Being winter when I was there, the stench was overwhelming around the poor kid in the warm dormitory. I would take her to the bathroom and in an enormous Victorian sink wash the whole lot off her.
Very soon I learned the trick to breath only through my mouth to avoid the stench while doing this, contrary to the natural instinct of breathing through the nose.

... Now, looking at these pages, I am also able to control my eyes in exactly the same fashion; against instinct.
I just look at the posters I know to be positive and have something constructive to say; avoiding every syllable that I don't need, nor want to read. IMPOSSIBLE? ... No, not at all! Those months in Bristol with those sweet, poor kids, taught me many beautiful things.
One of them was how to filter out nastiness you did not want when it was right up close!

ADMIRATION FOR MOHAMED AL FAYED

23.02.08, 9:58pm


... Transcribed and respectfully corrected from the excellent posting from "cassidyskye" of Southend-on-Sea. 19.02.08, 2:15 pm

"He has a good point here. I am not one to believe conspiracy theories but I agree with what he said. I have read the transcripts and no doubt a cover-up is going on. It's all true what Mr Al Fayed said . It's taken 10 years, so we can all forget her ... and everyone is saying he is a lunatic; but that's all been slander for those who are involved in the cover-up.- One which is to basically protect the country from the embarrassment of the murder claim.. All Mohamed Al Fayed says adds up, and it's just obvious Diana was a threat that had to be removed ... because they would not want a foreign or Muslim, non-white person related to the Monarchy.
The Princess was playing with fire because she was angry at being used in the first place; to bear babies to a man who didn't know what love meant. When she started to flaunt her new love, the inner Court worried about it and Prince Philip had words with the Big Boys.
We should all acknowledge that the Fiat went missing.
The Mahogany Box was gotten rid of by Diana's own sister.

... And so many other factors which cry out murder!

But Mohamed Al Fayed is right when he says that God is the judge and that none of us should accept murder, no matter who is to blame. I admire this man's courage and share his pain and sorrow. I shall never be railroaded into believing that this was just a mere Road Traffic Accident.
... So we turn a blind eye and accuse a man of being insane who stands up for justice.
... What will we do next? - Go back to throwing Christians to the lions? - Or admit that we too have to face God and hope to have a clear conscience?
We have to look in our hearts and admit Mohamed Al Fayed pays more in tax than this inquest costs. - He should NEVER have had to wait 10 years for this!
- All because the cover-up was orchestrated by the father of a supposed future king.
... None of them should be above the law; no matter who they are.
Justice should hold no favour.
