That looks so bad, when typed out.
Perhaps I should put a link in, to the old Lanky sayings thread.

Where you been man? Anywhere nice?
The point that she wasn't wearing a seat belt causes questions? But what about the issue of the delay getting her to hospital?
Ask yourself this question? Would Diana, if alive be compliant with Harry and Williams military activities - which is a course Prince Charles went down - but would Diana have been an obstruction to that? If so surely maybe someone decided it would be better if she was unable to have any influence over her children. It just seems obvious to me as she didn't get on with the Queen etc. Would Diana have been upsetting the Royal Apple Cart if she was still alive?

Surely this has something to do with the French way of dealing with accident and emergencies?
Their idea is to provide primary care by Doctor and Nurse, rather than Paramedics as we and the US do. The SMUR, Service Mobile d'Urgence et Reanimation, is the front line. The French though don't set the same priority on Emegency Trauma as we do even paying the Doctors in the SMUR Salarys below £1000 per month (starting salary in 2002).
I am not suggesting she was not murdered, however I see only coincidence here and circumstantial evidence.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
I spent the night before she died at a small party at Kenneth Branagh/Helena Bonham Carter's. I know, forgive me, more name dropping. Yawn.
Diana was the main topic of conversation that night.
Her life that summer had become a bad operetta.
I liked her, in my own republican way.
She was the first high-profile person on the world stage to actually touch an AIDS sufferer. Thus dispelling some myths about how the disease was spread, and helping to breakdown some prejudices. Hardly a safe, cosy cause to take on, at that time.
A selfish reason I liked her, my atracting her as client doubled my salary overnight. Whoo-hoo.
She was flawed.
Who isn't.
I stayed over at friend's house, in alien north London, the night after the party.
I was in the shower, when the door opened, and north London friend said 'Diana's dead.'
I replied instinctively with 'They've killed her.'
With hindsight do I think she was murdered?
No.
I think she died because she wasn't wearing a seat belt.

I thought you were going to admit to spending the evening playing drinking games with her driver

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
Can't name drop like you Garinda but I do remember where I was and what I was doing when Diana died. We were on holiday in Pembrokeshire and the morning after she died we had just found about it on the radio. We went off for the day, a Sunday, to look round a reconstructed Iron Age village. It started raining as we got there and all the visitors went into one of the roundhouse huts. There was a fire in the centre there and everybody was gathered round talking about Diana. It was rather surreal and I imagined that would have been how it was, two thousand years ago when anyone had news to impart or talk about.

Re: Was Princess Diana Murdered?
The one thing that did really annoy me is all the memorials which sprang up outside Buck House St James's etc, the places were knee deep in flowers, the only people who got benefit from that was the numerous florists, what a total waste of money just lying there rotting on the floor, It would have done more good, if people felt that way, just to make a donation to one of her charities. That's why I have it written in my will family flowers only donations if you so require to a charity

That was the weirdest week I think I ever spent in London.
People wandering up and down, in a world of their own. Tears rolling down their faces, and that was just Princess Margaret, and the Queen Mum.
We were right on the pilgrimage trail to Kensington Palace.
I can't rember how many times I was asked directions there.
To which I replied I'd only oblige, if they'd complete the rest of the pilgrimage on their knees.
