British Royal Family Intrigued by UFOs and Crop Circles
http://www.allnewsweb.com/page1881882.phpColin Andrews, has been asked to remove details of the British Royal's family interest in crop circle research from his website. On the site he states that their interest was aroused because crop circles appeared on their land.
Colin's book 'Circular Evidence' was on the Queen's Summer Reading list in 1989 and HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh subscribed to his Circles Phenomenon Research Newsletter. The Duke also asked Colin to keep him up-to-date with his research.
Colin states that the British public has been continually lied to in regard to the Royal Family's interest in UFOs. He thinks it is about time the public is told the truth about this matter.
Nick Pope who was formerly head of the Ministry of Defence's UFO department replies that:
"Some of the issues Colin highlights have arisen because the line between official and private interest - even within government, the military and the intelligence agencies - can be blurred. There are particular sensitivities and political difficulties when members of the Royal Family are involved.
There are some very interesting sites linked at the bottom of the article. Cher
