The picture of Sophia Hesketh giving a thumbs up to Emily Lopes with Alice Rothschild by her side is classic class warfare. These Banker Babes are scoring points in the game they play. They are treated as fashion plates, but, they are not that pretty. What they are, are imitation Rosamond Women. My late sister invented this look. Sophia is connected to Philip Green who I suspect is the dude that gave me a menacing look at Christine’s funeral. Sophia and Christine are in the Preston family tree.
I hereby title these babes – Pippies! While the Pippies parade up and down the high fashion runways, 700 hundred real Tea Party Patriots are being arrested on Wall Street where the Pippies make a killing dancing around the golden bull.
“Let them eat cake!”

Alice Charlotte von Rothschild

Alice Charlotte von Rothschild(February 17, 1847 – May 3, 1922) was a socialite and member of the prominent Rothschild banking family of Austria. Born in Frankfurt, she was the 8th and youngest child of Anselm von Rothschild(1803–1874) and Charlotte Rothschild (1807–1859). She was a small child when her family moved to Viennawhere her father took over management of the family-owned S M von Rothschild bank.
Alice von Rothschild’s mother was the daughter of Nathan Mayer Rothschild of Londonand as a result the family would have close connections to the English branch of the Rothschild family. Her brother Ferdinand, with whom she was very close, studied at Cambridge University and married an English cousin.
Her mother died when she was twelve and as a result of her busy father who traveled constantly, she spent a lonely childhood, living with various relations. When her brother Ferdinand began the construction in 1874 of Waddesdon Manor in Buckinghamshire England, Alice von Rothschild acquired a nearby property at Eythropefor herself. There, between 1876 and 1879, she had a park and garden created and a house built near the river called Eythrope Pavilion. Because she had suffered from rheumatic fever, she had been advised not to sleep near water as dampness would aggravate her health problem. As such, her house was built for daytime occupation only and at nights she returned to stay at Waddesdon Manor.
In late 1898, following the death of her brother, Alice inherited Waddesdon Manor. During World War Ishe had the formal gardens at Waddesdon and Eythrope given over to the growing of vegetablesfor the less fortunate. The Eythrope Pavilion was still maintained but now as even more of an occasional retreat. As her health declined she spent more of her time at her magnificent Château Rothschildin the balmier climate of the town of Grassein the Alpes-Maritimes département in France. Her property was located about 12 miles (19 Kilometers) inland, north of the Mediterranean coast and here she created an enormous garden that employed more than one hundred gardeners. A spinster, she wanted to be near family and her château was close to Cannes where her cousin Laura Thérèse von Rothschild, widow of James-Edouard de Rothschildowned the Villa Rothschild, Cannes, and only 34 miles (55 Kilometers) from Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild, the seaside estate owned by another cousin, Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild.
Queen Victoria, a close friend, vacationed in Grasse and visited Château Rothschild. According to the book The Rothschild Gardens by Miriam Rothschild, at the turn of the century, Alice von Rothschild spent the equivalent of nearly half-a-million pounds (Sterling) annually on her gardens and grounds at Grasse. Imperious in nature, Alice was a strong-willed person who spoke her mind. According to a 2001 book by author Michael Nelson: “the Queen stepped on a lawn and across a flower-bed, inadvertently crushing several plants. The baroness could not contain herself and roughly told the sovereign in effect to ‘Get out’. Thereafter the Queen always referred to her as ‘The All-Powerful One’.”
Like most other members of the Rothschild family, Alice von Rothschild was a collector of art. While she acquired paintings, sculptures and objets d’art, Alice von Rothschild also had a unique collection of smoking pipes, including French, Spanish and Italian examples from the 17th century. The collection was donated to the town of Grasse on her death in 1922.
Born at Westminster Hospitalin London, Goldsmith is the middle child of James Goldsmith and his third wife, the Anglo-Irish aristocrat Lady Annabel Vane-Tempest-Stewart. Goldsmith was raised at Ormeley Lodge in Ham with his siblings, Jemima and Ben. He has five paternal half-siblings,[7]and is also half-brother to Robin and India Jane Birley, his mother’s children from her first marriage.[8]His maternal great-grandfather was the 7th Marquess of Londonderry, the well-known Ulster Unionist politician and descendant of Viscount Castlereagh(1769–1822; later the 2nd Lord Londonderry).
As a child, Goldsmith was an avid reader of naturalist Gerald Durrell’s work[9] and had a committed passion for Sir David Attenborough’s wildlife programmes.[10]He later recalled, “[Attenborough] was my hero, and it was his work that made me fall in love with the natural world.”[11]His ecological interests were further nourished when his father gave him a copy of Helena Norberg-Hodge’s book Ancient Futures, with a note saying, “This will change your life.”[12
In January 2009 Alice Rothschild signed a statement circulated by the Magnes Zionist Blog, opposing Israeli policy in Gaza:[1]
As human beings, we are shocked and appalled at the mass destruction unleashed by the State of Israel against the people of Gaza in its military operation, following years of Israeli occupation, siege, and deprivation.
As progressives, we reject the same justifications for the carnage that we heard ad nauseam from the supporters of the Second Iraq War: the so-called “war on terror,” the “clash of civilizations,” the “need to re-establish deterrence” – all of which served to justify a misguided and unnecessary war, with disastrous consequences for America and Iraq

Who will be Harry’s next piece? Meet Britain’s Posh Totty
March 26th, 2011 Admin
When Prince William ties the knot with Kate Middleton next month, for a certain class of girl, Harry will step into his brother’s well-heeled shoes as the most sought-after bachelor in the kingdom. And while royal observers remain in a state of confusion as to the exact status of Harry’s volatile relationship with Zimbabwe-born heiress Chelsy Davy, there are plenty of other well-bred young fillies who would be more than happy to take her place.
Their hunting ground is London’s exclusive nightclub scene, where they sit huddled together, many of them waiting for the coded texts sent round when Harry is spotted.
A typical text will say something like: ‘H@M no C’, which roughly translated means ‘Harry at Mahiki without Chelsy’. Dozens of girls receiving texts like these will touch up their pink lipgloss, fling themselves into taxis and head to wherever the Prince is.
No wonder the 26-year-old Prince is said to have taken to wearing a woman’s blonde wig as a disguise when he moves between his favourite nightspots.
Even in the U.S., wealthy young heiresses are admitting to setting their sights on a royal title. One 25-year-old from California, hat designer Courtney Fleming, even writes a blog about her efforts as a self-confessed ‘Harry Hunter’, which include staking out the Prince’s favourite nightclubs in a low-cut dressand hanging out at society events such as Henley Royal Regatta.
But the girls high-society watchers think will really snare Harry are not those so brazenly pursuing him. Rather it is those with impeccable pedigrees — and often, titles of their own — who have known him for years.
During the week, they can be found in London: at the weekend, of course, they retreat to their or someone else’s country houses. Here, we reveal some of their identities.
EMILY LOPES
As the daughter of Devonshire racehorse breeder Lord Roborough, sports PR Emily, 23, could be perfect girlfriend material for horse-lover Harry.
They met at Cheltenham Races a couple of years ago and got on famously.
Their families share links: Emily’s cousin, accountant Harry Lopes, is married to Laura Parker Bowles, daughter of the Duchess of Cornwall.
The perfect girlfriend: Emily Lopes is the daughter of a racehorse breeder
And the PR consultant has impeccable connections. At the last charity event she organised, a party at Public — a nightclub owned by Harry’s friend Guy Pelly — she persuaded Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, Kate Middleton’s sister and brother and Chelsy Davy to turn up. Her family’s country pile is the grand ten-bedroom Maristow House, near Roborough.
THE HON. SOPHIE HESKETH
As the first girl Harry is rumoured to have ever kissed, flaxen-haired Sophia, 26, will no doubt always hold a place in the Prince’s heart. They were last seen dancing together at a charity ball in 2007, despite the fact that Chelsy was also there.
