James Goldsmith has been listed as a level-5 vital article in People, Business. If you can improve it, please do. This article has been rated as Start-Class.

I think the last sentence doesn't belong to the rest of the article.[edit]

Despite the gloominess of the message, reading Sir James Goldsmith's book, The Trap, originally published 1993 is both an educational and entertaining experience. Check out this Charlie Rose interview with James Goldmith on Youtube, which including a lively debate with Laura Tyson, President Clinton's Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors. Goldsmith’s Gratitude Drill. If you think you’ll struggle to get used to the idea of expressing gratitude after years of not doing so, Goldsmith suggests completing what he calls a “gratitude drill.” This drill has two simple steps: Identify the top 25 people who’ve helped you to get to your current level of career success.

We, as mankind, have become our own worst enemy, and Goldsmith, like so many other writers like Noam Chomsky, Paul Craig Roberts and Chris Hedges, defines the issues lucidly. What remains is for our hapless political elites who led the charge into the trap to start addressing the issues.

Let's speak plainly[edit]

'It is believed that they discussed the possibility of violently overthrowing the troubled government of James Callaghan and replacing it with a dictatorship.' -- This is a horrible weasel for such a libellous accusation. Let's pin this down plainly (who accused whom of what when) or remove it. -- 201.78.236.99 15:51, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

It says Wilson not Callaghan. Speaking of libellous rumours, I used to live very near his ex wife and the rumour always was that James was the real father of Princess Diana. Any further info on this ?! Rob 10/06

'At his death he was a phenomenally wealthy man with a fortune that was completely self-made' - with his background (including a father who paid off his gambling debts) can we really say that his fortune was entirely self-made? Rich 10 Oct 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.153.97.170 (talk) 12:31, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes, he was till self-made.

The Trap[edit]

Has anyone seen that his book The Trap actually matches perfectly the developments in the world? http://www.sirjamesgoldsmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/The-Trap-Sir-James-Goldsmith.pdf— Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.181.160.138 (talk) 22:51, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Mellor[edit]

The text about the Putney result is POV and doesn't belong in an encyclopedia.

Eurosceptic[edit]

Interesting. Born in Paris, descended from German Jews, married/had affairs with Europeans and South Americans and died in Spain. What a strange lot British Eurosceptics are. I thought it was just the aristocracy that were mad.

194.46.247.216 19:44, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

A few points: 1. Famous nationalist leaders (Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin, Lloyd George or Churchill in their different ways) are often born or trace descent outside their country of adoption. 2. More seriously, Goldsmith's views in France were a lot more protectionist and less Eurosceptic - cf the different editions of 'The Trap'. 3. The international financial elite are a sort of international class today, not unlike how the aristocracy were in previous centuries. 4. Opinion polls always consistently show that the vast majority of British people are Eurosceptic, whether PC opinion affects to find their leaders 'strange' or not.

Private Eye article[edit]

This article is mentioned in the current edition of Private Eye (1305). The Daily Mailapologised for a story about Goldsmith which quoted him as saying that Jewish people who died in the Holocaust 'lacked the initiative to get out.' He said no such thing, but it had appeared in his Wikipedia article between 22 January 2010 and 16 February 2010 (it was both added and removed by an IP editor). Somewhat bizarrely, it still appears in a version of the article at dictionary.sensagent.com. It is also a mystery how an obscure and way out of date mirror of a Wikipedia article came to be considered as a reliable source by the Mail.--♦IanMacM♦^{(talk to me)} 09:14, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

Spouse name link is not pointing correctly the person referred namely Doña María Isabel Patiño y Borbón[edit]

Last Sentence of First Paragraph[edit]

This doesn't make sense: 'His father was Jewish and his mother Catholic; Goldsmith was Jewish and his brother was baptized in Catholicism: that was considered afterwards as a formality.'

So does that mean that one brother was baptized as Catholic and the other wasn't?

And how could James Goldsmith be Jewish? Under Jewish law, one is only a Jew if one's mother is a Jew. Did the mother convert to Judaism? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.224.1.113 (talk) 02:40, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

Princess Diana[edit]

There is no need to mention whether or not he was the father of Princess Diana. This is gossip and the one source is unrelaible. (Coachtripfan (talk) 17:07, 12 January 2016 (UTC))

Cause of pancreatic cancer - did Goldsmith smoke???[edit]

Goldsmith died of pancreatic cancer. Statistically, approximately 25% of pancreatic cancers can be traced to smoking as the cause. Did Goldsmith smoke?Betathetapi545 (talk) 12:36, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

This isn't relevant unless it is covered by reliable sources. It is well known that lung cancer is often caused by smoking, and the article says that 85% of cases are caused by smoking.--♦IanMacM♦^{(talk to me)} 14:25, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

Macmillan, 1994 Amazon.co.uk

James Goldsmith, after amassing a vast fortune in the 1980s, turned his companies into cash before the stock market collapse on Black Monday. He officially “retired” from business to devote himself to ecological causes. (His brother, Teddy, is the founding father of the British green movement, and publisher of the “Ecologist”). His enquiries led him to confront the worldwide problems of unemployment, urban decay, the poisoning of our food and air, and made obvious the lack of essential solutions politicians, of whatever persuasion, were offering. He confronts in this book, the “sacred cows” of modern political and economic thought, exposing why global free trade will destroy nations, the lies about the nuclear energy industry, why agricultural policy is poisoning and destabilizing communities, and the cost of a welfare state that doesn’t deliver welfare.
