From: "David Guyatt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Any take on how they relate to the City? Not really, Catherine. Despite having worked there for nearly thirty years it remains a highly secret place. I know of no one who has publicly plumbed it depths. However, it is obviously a very "key" place. For example, Calvi was murdered and then suspended under Blackfriard bridge, located on the peripherary of the City. The fact that at the inquest Calvi was recorded as a suicide when simple forensic evidence would've demonstrated a murder, must be of significance. Also, it is relevant that Calvi came to London to seek a financial rescue package for his ailing Banco Ambrosiano, something that shoud also not be overlooked. It is also true that few people fully realise that the "City of London" is a fully functioning "city" within the larger London city. For example, the "City" has its own fully independent police force (the City Police) who answer to the City of London -- where London itself is policed by the Metropolitan Police. Imagine the financial district of Manhattan having a self contained police force - not answerable to the Mayor of NY City - but to the mayor and council of Wall Street. Interestingly, the Metropolitan Police are only marginally less Masonic than the City police - who have for years been members of the Brotherhood.
