Was Titanic Inquiry Scuppered by the Freemasons?
23rd November 2015
A secret archive containing the names of two million Freemasons has been made public for the first time on the genealogy site Ancestry which reveals extensive Masonic involvement in the controversial British investigation into the catastrophe.
It confirms that not only the judge who oversaw the British Wreck Commissioner’s inquiry into the disaster and leading investigators, but also even some of those who escaped censure were all Freemasons.
Which is, of course, like saying that they were all Scoutmasters. In other words, who cares?
While a US Senate inquiry into the sinking savaged the White Star Line and singled out the British Board of Trade for blame for lax regulations which allowed the scandalously small number of lifeboats fitted on the ship, the UK investigation overseen by Lord Mersey avoided blaming the Board of Trade.
A government commission avoiding blaming a government department. That’s news.
I like a conspiracy theory better than most, but this is a stretch — and not the sort of tabloid-fodder you expect to find in the Telegraph.

What? No Illuminati? Have they no respect for tradition?
