meetings in Downing Street that are unminuted so that (he thinks) he
will not be held accountable for his crimes. What he cannot hide are the
effects of those decisions, which can have only come from one place,
minutes or not. For the known greatest control freak this is ludicrous.
This is exactly the way, for example, Stalin operated his own
bureaucracy -- even criticising decisions that he himself was
responsible for: the article 'Dizzy with Success' for example.

Godfrey, (for whom Ian Fleming worked as assistant) once said of the

to provide an accurate assessment of the enemies intentions."

They live in their own little world, and start believing their
own fantasies. It is well past time for the bastard to go.
