The UK Premier has broken his promise on transparency as he refused to discuss the Bilderberg meeting.<\/p>\n
\n
British Prime Minister David Cameron is facing criticism for breaking his promise to lead a transparent government, after he refused to reveal what had been discussed at the secretive Bilderberg meeting.\n<\/p>\n
Cameron\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s presence at the shadowy meeting is provoking controversy as the Prime Minister\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s spokesman claimed that he is still committed to lead a transparent government, even though he refused to discuss what was said in the secretive conference.\n<\/p>\n
A member of the Alliance for Lobbying Transparency, Tamasin Cave, said that Cameron\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s decision to attend the Bilderberg conference \u00c5\u201cdrives a coach and horses\u201d through his pledge of openness\u201d.\n<\/p>\n
This comes as on the Sky News channel, opposition Labour MP Michael Meacher demanded transparency over the Bilderberg meeting, which took place in a luxury hotel in Watford, Hertfordshire.\n<\/p>\n
\u00c5\u201cIf there is any conference which required transparency, it is the Bilderberg conference because this is really where the top brass of western finance capitalism meet\u201d, Meacher said, adding that there will be no statement in the House of Commons about it.\n<\/p>\n
\u00c5\u201cThis is totally in contradiction to the government\u00e2\u201e\u00a2s commitment to have greater transparency,\u201d he added.\n<\/p>\n
The Bilderberg Group, which is made up of senior politicians, business leaders and academics from around the world, commonly attracts conspiracy theories as its annual gatherings always take place in secrecy.\n<\/p>\n
