the lead solicitor in the 1936 removal of Hitler-admirer King Edward VIII.

WTF? Did I miss something? Edward VIII abdicated because he fell in love with a divorced American woman, not because he was a Nazi-sympathizer. Or was the woman a clever cover story for a coup by the Masonic-Illuminati-Bilderberg-CFR elite who really rule the world?

I just looked that up. He did in fact abdicate to marry his love. However, he did initially have pro-Nazi views but, according to Wikipedia, he saw German Fascism as a way to stand up to Communism. The article also mentions that he wasn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer either so, his pro-Nazi days may have simply been a passing fancy.
