Re: Leadership who is the next PM?

The thing is, he sent the emails, but he wouldn’t have written them - they would have been researched, compiled, reviewed, summarised, and written by aides, junior diplomats, and researchers.

The emails would have been the consensus, as seen and agreed, by the staff "on the ground", and presented to, and agreed by, the Ambassador and his senior staff - their job is to present what they see and their interpretation of it.

If diplomatic staff only write reports that won’t upset the countries they are in, they aren’t doing their jobs properly.

It’s the timing of the leak to Isabel Oakeshott, the journalist who acts as the de-facto communications office of Aaron Banks, that’s "interesting".

The leak happens, then Nigel Farage demands Darroch be sacked, and then Leave.EU launches its campaign to make sure Farage replaced him.

Incredible timing.
