David Cameron is to attend the secretive Bilderberg group at the luxury Grove hotel in Watford on Friday evening, in a move that is likely to raise questions about his pledge to lead Britain's most transparent government.

Downing Street said it was acting in an open manner by publicising the prime minister's attendance in advance.

The PM's spokesman, who said heads of government of countries hosting the annual Bilderberg meeting were usually invited to attend, said it would be a private event and that civil servants were not expected to attend.

No 10 is to clarify the position because ministers are usually expected to be accompanied by civil service note-takers when they meet business leaders. Henri de Castries, the chairman and CEO of the AXA Group, is the Bilderberg chairman.

2. Thanks I was surprised neither Clinton, I've read they have attended

but there are other notables David Petraeus , Henry Kissinger, and Richard Perle among them

3. I think the "guest list" changes from year to year.

Either / both of the Clintons may have attended other years.

The venue is local to me - about 1/2 mile away as crow flies. Its a nuisance. Under normal circumstance its a nice place to eat, drink and wander about a 300 acre estate. There is obviously a local fuss about exactly who is paying for the security.

4. That's easy...

the taxpayers will. We couldn't let our "betters" pay that steep bill.

5. And the fact they chose to host it at

The Grove is pure coincidence.

7. sounds like a pain

I would imagine the security involved alone would make a mess of things

8. It was different when Tiger Woods played there 7 years ago.

Nobody minded that.
