The ‘Bankrupt Brewer of Huntingdon’, and 
Solomon’s Temple: an untold story of the English Civil War, by Tony Gosling

In his most acclaimed 1819 novel, Ivanhoe, Sir 
Walter Scott zooms in on this centuries-long 
struggle between dark forces that hijack the 
state justice system and military to control 
England for their own private gain, and those 
that want to live comfortably, of course, but 
want to see genuine Christian love-thy-neighbour 
values and social justice prevail. Between the 
extinguishing of the Templars in 1312, the eerily 
similar Garter Knights origin in 1348, and the 
sixteenth century Reformation, came the 
too-little studied nor understood Wars of the Roses.

A battle for succession between the houses of 
York and Lancaster it can also be seen as the 
ultimately fruitless attempt to crush the 
Lancastrian power of these ever more confident 
Garter Knights. It was only with the coming of 
the 1485 Battle of Bosworth that this argument 
was finally settled in the Garter Knights favour. 
Sporadic bands of possibly state-sponsored 
brigands that had been roaming a lawless country 
for over a century were apprehended, and the 
English countryside was allowed to return to a reasonably peaceful existence.

Forty years later The Vatican's inability, or 
unwillingness, to try accusations of witchcraft 
had been one of the many reformation grievances. 
As Henry VIII finally wrenched English 
Christendom away from Rome in December 1633, over 
the marriage to Anne Boleyn, the English church 
began a popularisation and freeing-up of 
Christian doctrine and practice which included 
dealing much more directly with accusations of witchcraft.

This took place over the century or so between 
the reformation and English civil war as a 
spiritual battle raged to deal with evidence of 
divination and sorcery which the Vatican had 
swept under the carpet. This extension of the 
crown's judicial powers also provided 'cover' for 
Thomas Cromwell's hostile takeover of the 
monasteries, and execution of several abbots, to 
which the crown owed vast sums of money.

So the reformation cancelled much of the debt the 
crown and gentry had built up during the Wars of 
the Roses and Hundred Years War in France. Like a 
dream come true there was also much confiscated 
monastic land and property which could be sold 
off to raise funds and much of the national debt 
had simply disappeared with the institutions it 
was owed to. This is the heady Elizabethan court 
into which John Dee whispered dreams of empire. 
He unveiled secrets of vast heathen continents 
loaded with resources as well as a plans to force 
England’s rural poor to work in factories. So to 
‘rule the waves’ and make the new colonial adventurers very rich..

Under Henry and Elizabeth, John Dee’s secret plan 
was safe, but after the Catholic-leaning Stuart 
line took to the throne in 1603, awkward 
questions began to be asked about foreign policy 
and the increasing numbers of rural destitute 
falling victim to enclosure. For all but the 
gentry Henry had made possession of Coverdale’s 
newly published English Bible a crime, but James 
was having none of that. He determined that to 
thwart fallacious churchmen and for the nation to 
thrive the common man must have direct access to the scriptures.

Adam Smith said ‘People of the same trade seldom 
meet together, even for merriment and diversion, 
but the conversation ends up in a conspiracy 
against the public, or in some contrivance to 
raise prices.’ Opposition to the inconvenient 
concerns of the Church of England and the 
monarchy was growing. It accelerated rapidly in 
the 1630s as Charles tried to assert his 
authority by fining the evictors of the rural 
poor. Once Charles had dismissed parliament the 
empire faction of the City of London and merchant 
classes met secretly at the Providence Island 
Company and after war broke out the conspiracy 
was focussed at what became Cromwell’s Army Council and Council of State.

The Empire conspiracy was also becoming free to 
operate through secret societies where necessary, 
in a kind of spiritual battle behind the scenes 
for legislative influence which will benefit 
them, running up to the power to hire and fire 
the monarch. Although the restoration was a 
temporary blow, the Stuarts were probably sounded 
out and still not considered by the empire 
builders safe to be ‘in the loop’ so plans were 
put in place for the 1688 William III coup who, 
like Henry and Elizabeth before, would put 
personal gain and national prestige before the 
welfare of the people. The Jacobites then, who 
rightly never accepted William and his successors 
as legitimate, can be compared to the original 
Christian Socialist Labour party, or today’s 
anti-capitalist, social justice, protest 
movements. The Jacobites, however, ran out of 
steam in 1745 after a great march to attack 
London by the Highlanders and their allies which, 
probably wisely, was abandoned in Derby and returned home.

No wonder that MI5/SWP interloper John Rees, who 
refuses to be interviewed by me on any of this 
despite his supposed big fat book, lays into the 
king and lauds 'flawed' Cromwell. He runs Stop 
The War as some sort of entitlement post and the 
somewhat not doing as well as it should Assange campaign.

"And I think, in the end, that is the best 
definition of journalism I have heard; to 
challenge authority - all authority - especially 
so when governments and politicians take us to 
war, when they have decided that they will kill and others will die. "
