THEORIES
Nothing is more entertaining than a conspiracy
theory. They have become an integral part of our
culture and the age of global communication has
seen them spread and multiply like never before.
Is everything we’re being told the truth? How
do we know there aren’t powerful forces stopping
us from uncovering evidence of something that
would change everything we believed to be true?
Did Txxxxxxxxxxxs really kill Axxxxxxxxr? Do
you know that aliens were found at Pxxxxxxxxt?
From the mysteries surrounding groups such
as the Freemasons, Sxxxxxxxt, Illuminati and
Templars, to the questions surrounding the death
of Princess Diana, the assassination of JFK,
the disappearance of Mxxxxxxxr Kxxxxxxxe and the
cover-up at Roswell, nothing divides opinion
like a conspiracy theory. But while many people
will just accept the truth, believing everything
they’re told by Gxxxxxxxxxt, should we really be
digging a little deeper and looking a bit harder?

Diana’s death, the Queen had spoken at length
to Burrell. Sounding like the most paranoid of
conspiracy theorists and using dialogue that
would not have been out of place in The X-Files,
she warned Burrell to be careful, saying, “There
are powers at work in this country which we
have no knowledge about.”
The warning led Burrell to wait until October
2003 to make public the fact that Diana had
written him a note ten months before she died.
It stated: “This particular phase of my life is the
most dangerous. ‘X’ is planning an accident in
my car, brake failure and serious head injuries
in order to make the path clear for Charles
to marry”. The Princess’ startling prescience
has heightened the belief she was a victim of a
conspiracy, not a tragic accident.
