The Bilderberg group of the world’s elite, currently meeting in northern Italy and celebrating its 50th anniversary, casts an extensive shadow on the net.

This year, apparently, BP boss John Browne, US senator John Edwards and Mrs Bill Gates are among the invitees. People who have been in the past include the likes of Henry Kissinger (a regular), Prince Charles, Bill Clinton, Donald Rumsfeld, Peter Mandelson, Kenneth Clarke, King Juan Carlos and Lord Black (although reportedly he’s now off the guest list after his Telegraph travails).
