MPs demand inquiry into revelations that Prince Charles sent staff to work in Whitehall
Ministers urged to explain why Clarence House employees were given government posts
The Prince of Wales was accused tonight of an "astonishing" breach of his constitutional role
by dispatching employees to work in two Government departments.
The disclosure that three members of his staff had been seconded to Whitehall followed last week's
revelation that the heir to throne has had 36 private meetings with Cabinet members since the 2010
general election.
Demands for 27 letters written by the Prince to ministers in the previous government to be released
have also been blocked by the Attorney General.
MPs are preparing to challenge ministers over the secondments when Parliament returns next month
and will attempt to trigger a Commons inquiry into the Prince's influence over the Government machine.

JJimmy Savile Abuse Victims Demand Single Inquiry
Around 50 people who say they were abused by the ex-BBC host have called for one overarching investigation into how he evaded justice for so long.
Some of late BBC host Jimmy Savile's sexual abuse victims have banded together to call for a single inquiry into how the former Top of The Pops host and public broadcaster stalwart managed to evade justice.
As it stands, there are more than 30 individual investigations being carried out by organizations linked to Savile and his pattern of long-standing abuse.
: Jimmy Savile Scandal: Victims of Alleged Sexual Abuse Sue BBC
About 50 of the people who have reported being abused say they fear key questions will not be answered about how Savile,
who died in 2011, operated both at the BBC........................... ``and beyond.``
A single Inquiry ``may`` expose the real core of The Establishment.....but with the `continual cover up`from chief constable
upwards ...............not holding breath but live in hope !

Revealed: How gangs used the Freemasons to corrupt police
Gangsters able to recruit police officers through secret society, says investigation for Scotland Yard
Secret networks of Freemasons have been used by organised crime gangs to corrupt the criminal justice system, according to a bombshell Metropolitan Police report leaked to The Independent.
Operation Tiberius, written in 2002, found underworld syndicates used their contacts in the controversial brotherhood to "recruit corrupted officers" inside Scotland Yard, and concluded it was one of "the most difficult aspects of organised crime corruption to proof against".
The report - marked "Secret" - found serving officers in East Ham east London who were members of the Freemasons attempted to find out which detectives were suspected of links to organised crime from other police sources who were also members of the society.
Famous for its secret handshakes, Freemasonry has long been suspected of having members who work in the criminal justice system - notably the judiciary and the police.
The political establishment and much of the media often dismiss such ideas as the work of conspiracy theorists. However, Operation Tiberius is the second secret police report revealed by The Independent in the last six months to highlight the possible issue.
Project Riverside, a 2008 report on the rogue private investigations industry by the Serious Organised Crime Agency, also claimed criminals attempt to corrupt police officers through Freemason members in a bid to further their interests.
Concerns over the influence of freemasons on the criminal justice system in 1998 led former Home Secretary Jack Straw to order that all police officers and judges should declare membership of the organisation.
However, ten of Britain's 43 police forces refused to take part and the policy was dropped under threat of legal action. In England and Wales, the Grand Master of the Freemasons is Prince Edward, Duke of Kent. The United Grand Lodge of England declined to comment last night.
The Independent revealed last week that Operation Tiberius found that organised crime syndicates such as the Adams family and the gang led by David Hunt were able to infiltrate the Met "at will".
Asked to comment on the Tiberius report, a spokesman for Scotland Yard said: "The Metropolitan Police Service will not tolerate any behaviour by our officers and staff which could damage the trust placed in police by the public.
"We are determined to pursue corruption in all its forms and with all possible vigour."

MPs have spent almost £250,000 on paintings and sculptures of their colleagues, including thousands on portraits of the Tory cabinet ministers Iain Duncan Smith, William Hague and Ken Clarke.
The spending was revealed under a freedom of information request by the Evening Standard, which showed that almost £22,000 was spent on commissioning a portrait of John Bercow, the Commons Speaker, unveiled in 2011.
