Diana letter said husband was plotting to kill her

LONDON (Reuters) - An infamous letter written by Princess Diana in which she warned that her ex-husband Prince Charles was planning to kill her has been published for the first time.

In the letter, written to her butler Paul Burrell 10 months before her death in a Paris car crash in 1997, Diana said: "This particular phase in my life is the most dangerous -- my husband is planning an accident in my car".

Details of the letter first emerged in 2004 but have only been made public now at the inquest into the deaths of Diana and her lover Dodi al-Fayed, who was also killed in the crash.

It can be seen on http://www.scottbaker-inquests.gov.uk/evidence/docs/INQ0010117.p df

Dodi's father Mohamed al-Fayed, owner of Harrods, says Diana and his son were killed by British security services on the orders of Prince Philip, Charles' father.

Fayed alleges the killing was ordered because the royal family did not want the mother of the future king having a child with his son. He says Diana's body was embalmed to cover up evidence she was expecting a baby.

Diana's note to Burrell is seen by conspiracy theorists as evidence that her death was not an accident as the authorities have ruled.

Major investigations by British and French police have both concluded that the couple died because their chauffeur Henri Paul was drunk and driving too fast.

In the letter, Diana writes that the alleged murder plot would involve "brake failure and serious head injury".

This would allow Charles to marry Tiggy Legge-Bourke, the former nanny of couple's sons Princes William and Harry, the note continued, adding "Camilla is nothing but a decoy."

In fact, Charles married his long-term lover Camilla Parker Bowles in 2005.

Earlier this week, the inquest heard from Diana's close confidante Lucia Flecha de Lima, wife to the then Brazilian ambassador in London, who rejected suggestions the princess feared Charles was planning a car accident.

"I still don't believe she was fearing for her life, especially from Prince Charles, the future king of your country" she said.

Diana had more reason to fear that malevolent egotistical Nazi tyrant Tony Blair than her spineless wimp of an ex-husband and his foreign father.

Terry Kelly Being Driven Into An Earlier Grave?

"[C]ertain people working with Terry Kelly continue to be very worried by the weight he is carrying. Some have commented that he must be putting his health in serious danger. At this rate the Lib Dem group could go into the next council elections as the second largest party and the Tories as the official opposition."

Could comfort eating caused by a combination of scandals surrounding his boss Wendy Alexander and his colleague Tommy Williams, daughter Rayleen's defeat at the polls earlier this year and over a year of abuse from other Terry Watchers and myself be driving the infamous 'heavyweight' of Scottish local government politics to an early grave?

I Loath David Beckham

I've just sent this letter to the Western Mail newspaper:

SIR – Keith Towler undermined his own argument when he cited David Beckham as a suitable role model for children ahead of eminently more qualified, homegrown heroes such as Joe Calzage and Ryan Giggs. The former is a vain, over-paid and over-rated under-achiever who not only revels in his own ignorance, but also has still not denied that he has been unfaithful to his equally loathsome wife.

The latter two are not only talented and often underrated; they are also hard grafters who have earned their honours and riches through dedication and personal sacrifice despite persistent recurring injuries. Their private lives are also to be commended for rarely being the subject of controversy.

Calzage and Giggs are welcome throwbacks to the noble, honourable sporting heroes of old, whereas Beckham, along with Tony Blair, David Cameron and Jade Goody, is a personification of the triumph of style over substance in today’s Britain.

BREAKING NEWS?: Has Terry Kelly Resigned As Wendy Alexander's Election Agent

Cllr Terry Kelly

According to El Tel, he is no longer or has never been Wendy Alexander's election agent. This means that either he lied about being her agent from the start or far more like, El Tel has seen the writing on the wall for Wendy and decided to abandon ship to his own skin by resigning. Whether it is a smart move and/or cowardly act on his part, our hero hasn't exactly covered himself in glory during this ignominious episode for Scottish politics.

Teflon Terry?

Sometimes I get the feeling that my fellow Terry Watchers and I may have underestimated the mental abilities of our fat friend. While his supposedly 'smarter' associates are under investigation by the fuzz for there finances, El Tel is still siting pretty. Could it be that our hero is lulling us into a false sense of security by only pretending to be totally crass and utterly retarded? Have we fallen into the trap of underestimating an evil genius?!?

Gerrard latest Liverpool player to be burgled

LONDON (Reuters) - Liverpool and England midfielder Steven Gerrard suffered a burglary at his home while he was playing in a Champions League game in France on Tuesday night, a police source said.

He is the latest Liverpool player to be burgled while playing a match for his club.
Gerrard's wife Alex Curran was in the house at the time.

Merseyside Police would not confirm it was Gerrard's house, but said they were investigating a confrontational burglary in Formby, Merseyside.

"Officers were called to a house at about 9:30 p.m. last night following a call from a female resident that four men had broken into the house and stolen items of jewellery," a police spokeswoman said on Wednesday.

Curran and another woman, who was in the house at the time, were shaken by the incident, but were not injured.

The men, who were unarmed, wore hoods and balaclavas, the spokeswoman added. It is not clear how they broke in.

Gerrard, who captains Liverpool, was helping his team to a 4-0 victory against Olympique Marseille, a win which secured the club's passage into the last 16 of the Champions League.

Earlier this year, the home of Liverpool's goalkeeper Pepe Reina was burgled as he helped the club reach last season's Champions League final.

Team mates Jerzy Dudek, Daniel Agger, Peter Crouch and Florent Sinama-Pongolle, as well as Everton's Andy van der Meyde, were all burgled last year.

Last month, striker Dirk Kuyt suffered a break in at his luxury home in Woolton while he was on international duty with the Dutch team.

Happy Birthday Terry

Cllr Terry Kelly

I know it's a bit late (I've been away on business), but I would just like to wish my pet socialist Councillor Terry Kelly a happy 59th birthday. Whatever his faults (and there are many), one thing can be mentioned in his favour, without him the world would be a less humourous (though smarter) place to live in everyday.

Gordon Brown's General Election Battleplan Revealed

Quote of the Day 6.12.2007

"That Christianity has a pre-eminent position in British life in comparison to other religions is not wrong. It is not a case of equality. Of course, the practice of all religions should be free, fair and equal, but that Christianity is pre-eminent is not through any attack on equality; it is an acknowledgment of its role in creating the tolerant, free and democratic society that we all enjoy. If we lose that, will it damage the Church and affect the faith of millions in Jesus Christ as Lord and saviour? No, it will not. The nation, however, would lose far more in terms of what the Christian faith can contribute to the life of the nation, to its civic society, its voluntary groups, or anything else. The Church does not need contemporary Britain, but does contemporary Britain need the Church? You bet it does." - Alistair Burt MP

The Terry Kelly Paradox

Cllr Terry Kelly

If Gordon Brown is "a gut socialist" as tubby claims then how come the Lord Gord has proven himself to be a gutless coward over the past 13 years by refusing to challenge Adolf Blair for the Labour leadership and thus the premiership itself and postponing the next general election?

Nintendo Wii grasses up cheating wife

A US soldier discovered his missus had been playing away at home after spotting a suspicious "Mii" on his Nintendo Wii, the Evening Standard reports.

The man, known only as Tony, returned from a year in Iraq to reports from chums that his wife had been cheating on him. He'd had the Wii for company while on service in Iraq, but had mailed it back to the States prior to his return.

His other half claimed she'd only kissed the suspect, a professional bowler, once, but the Wii said otherwise. Tony emailed a Nintendo messageboard admitting he'd was "confused about his wife's denials of any indiscretion".

However, he continued: "All that changed when I plug in my Nintendo Wii for some Wii Sports. I flip through the Wii menu and visit the Mii channel so I can peruse the many friends that I have created with the guys that I played with in Iraq. As I go through the characters I see there is a Mii that I have not created."

Tony concluded: "I went into the Wii message board and click on the calendar option. Through this menu I was able to identify the many nights my wife's Mii and this other Mii character played Wii bowling."

And for good measure, the offending Mii was apparently "strikingly similar" to the bowling philanderer.

The end result? "Tony has separated from his wife and filed for divorce," the Standard notes.
