One thing that subsequently came out which I don't think made the book, was that PM John Key's father apparently fought in the SCW (see: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/long-lost-half-brothers-key-has-never-met/BCZJFDNP6MXYXGH6VHTZ7ZVKDM/)<br /><br />MichaelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690077250072100801.post-19968071444531129322023-11-12T10:20:18.838+13:002023-11-12T10:20:18.838+13:00nice article nic!nice article nic!Bayu Setiawanhttps://www.uyab.my.idnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690077250072100801.post-3852915418923787992023-11-09T23:52:18.955+13:002023-11-09T23:52:18.955+13:00Mmm.. good to be here in your article or post, wha...Mmm.. good to be here in your article or post, whatever, I think I should also work hard for my own website like I see some good and updated working in your site.<br /><a href="https://thefrench-connection.com/allaboutyoump3.php" rel="nofollow">the french connection all about you</a><br />jhnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04879702604543407640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690077250072100801.post-39446404034459227412023-11-05T01:57:03.763+13:002023-11-05T01:57:03.763+13:00his is my first time i visit here.

Like you I suspect it is a comms team tactic to project unity and also underline the apparent "commonsense" of what the lead speaker is saying. Have also seen the noddies replicate the head-shaking, smiles or laughter of the leader in other news clips.

John Cleese said he'd settled down in bed with his wife and cats to watch the event, then fell about with laughter at the silliness of orbs, sceptres and rings with grand titles being solemnly touched then removed, all in the most overstated costumes imaginable.

John le Carré was a formidable yet enchanting character and may have been arguably the best writer ever in the espionage genre but was he the perfect spy? No and for more on him as an imperfect spy do see TheBurlingtonFiles website and read an intriguing news article dated 31 October 2022.<br /><br />Some mavericks in MI6 called Pemberton’s People thought David Cornwell was a bit of a couch potato. Mind you, just because ex-spy/historian Hugh Trevor-Roper condescendingly described John le Carré’s work as "rich flatulent puff" doesn't mean you shouldn't read the epic raw and noir fact-based spy novel Beyond Enkription in The Burlington Files series. It’s a must read for espionage cognoscenti.MI6https://www.blogger.com/profile/08416815195914841290noreply@blogger.com
