Bilderberg | Edward Thompson

Held annually since 1954, the Bilderberg meeting brings together approximately 130 members of the top-tier elite to, according to their site, have ‘informal discussions about major issues’. The goings-on of these meetings are undocumented, the names of it’s attendees largely unidentified - and as a result conspiracy theories of the meeting’s true nature have been claimed from both the left and right, around the world.

In 2013, the Bilderberg meeting was held in London. Here, Edward Thompson documents the conspiracy theorists who pitched up in the field surrounding the hotel where it was held. Though now you can throw a stone and hit a conspiracy theorist, then the tinfoil hats and multicolour signs sported by those in attendance were seen as fringe. Can you spot David Icke?
