•• ~··There has been·no app~oach to Governments, and no direct
knowledge of UFOs by Governments. Lord Clancarty has an
answer: there is a great inter-Governmental conspiracy of
s ilence, initiated by the CIA.
15. ~he idea of the inter-Governmental conspiracy of silence
is at once the most astonishing and the most flattering claim
of all. On so few things can the Governmentsof the world agree
unaminously, but they have all supposedly agreed to conceal the
evide~ce of UFOs from their peoples. Let me assure this Rouse
that Her Majesty's Government has never been approached by
people from outer space.
16. There·is no internal consistency about the idea of this huge
nwmber of sightings. If they have.come from another solar system,
l'rhat is the point of this huge number of visits to our planet,
to no apparcut purpose? At best it seems wasteful. This was
once explained by the claim that aliens had advance bases the
other side of the moon. When that became untenable the bases
were assumed to be on another planet in our solar system. As
that has become untenable ever more fantastic explanations are
advanced. In a recent TV broadcast Lord Clancarty claimed that
th~ UFOs are based in a great hole in the ·earth. Elsewhere he
has claimed that they have bases in remote parts of South America,
or in the depths of the oceans. Because1hese physical place~
have become untenable he has claime~ that (I quote): 'UFOs are
paranormal, that is from invisible universes'. They come from
•other space-time continua'. Another ufologist talks of 'space
mind/full mind/¥~na'. Indeed the explanations get more and mor~
fantastic, and more and more incapable of ej. iiher proof or dis-
proof.
