----- Original Message -----

Subject: G20 Meeting, 2nd April



The forthcoming G20 meeting on 2nd April will address the global financial crises.


President Obama, and latterly, Gordon Brown, Prime Minister of Britain, have stated their intention to deal with offshore financial centres that hold $billions in deposits by corporations and individuals.



www.oldestparliament.org documents censorship, ministerial malpractice and poor governance on the Isle of Man since 1999.



To save reading 500+ documents, you may care to read a “Cross Roads” letter sent to each member of the Tynwald Parliament? This attempts to summarise some of the failings of the Isle of Man government. (See: http://www.oldestparliament.org/html/crossroads12.html )



When the Isle of Man’s poor governance was highlighted to the leaders of UK political parties over the years, they remained “silent”. (For example see correspondence to David Cameron, Conservative Party leader at: http://www.oldestparliament.org/html/david_cameron.html )



The UK’s national newspapers refuse to report negatively on the Isle of Man despite having been given overwhelming evidence of censorship and poor governance.



See: http://www.oldestparliament.org/html/national_newspapers.html



Similarly, the BBC’s Director General and the BBC Trust’s Chairman have each failed to respond to the question: “Why is the BBC protecting the Isle of Man government?” See:http://www.oldestparliament.org/html/bbc.html



When Royal Bank of Scotland knowingly sponsored censored “Manx Radio News” 200+ financial institutions worldwide were informed and RBS’s share price, coincidentally, collapsed. (See: http://www.oldestparliament.org/html/royal_bank_of_scotland.html )



When the Isle of Man’s poor governance was brought to the attention of the O,E.C.D., it was ignored. (See: http://www.oldestparliament.org/html/o_e_c_d_.html



A small offshore centre, that behaves in the way documented at www.oldestparliament.org, is a PERFECT place for citizens of your country to deposit their monies!



Perhaps you could remind Mr Gordon Brown, UK Prime Minister, why he should now act on his promise to “deal with” the offshore financial centre on his “door step”?



Samadhi! (Inner Peace)
