Putting it on the record diminishes the effectiveness slightly, but it's a no-brainer. All organising should be done by handwritten notes, with devices in another room. Almost all notes should be burned after the meeting, unless it's for the activists. Sweep for hidden cameras. They're almost pinhole-sized now. With written notes, that's barely an issue.

That minority includes several former opposition leaders and Prime Ministers.

Reuters got more footage out than usual. They've been considering me for a role for at least the last six months. One of my old bosses, Jeremy McCabe, was a fairly senior journalist for them, but they have a zero-drug policy. It's a bind. It's an editor role, not an on-air one, so I'm obviously qualified. The foreign journalists are likely to have Starlinks that they can't jam, and they can't really kill accredited journalists. That would precipitate US involvement. Trump intends to do something. That's what they tell me. Isentia was media intelligence, not journalism. They usually screen out druggies, but the FBI have found that it's impossible to find qualified people unless they've done LSD or cannabis. I've got the profile for…
