Even though the sellotape is prepared and we have wound up the clockwork badgers and placed them on the starting line, there is still some dirty work afoot… I told you to wear the wellies, didn’t I?
As you well know it is not easy to housetrain a political researcher, even at the best of times, so be careful where you are treading, especially if you have recourse to go as far as behind the sofa.
Now some of you may – indeed – be wondering why we are disporting the clockwork badgers – undoubtedly one of the UK’s greatest military secrets in an area where political researchers are allowed to roam wild and – relatively – free.
Now, to my mind, that is – indeed – a good and pertinent question. However, as with all things secret and especially – militarily secret – the asking of good and – indeed - pertinent - questions is the one area that is often frowned upon by the powers that be. Feeling, quite rightly to their minds – that anything beyond happenstance and blindingly groping-forward is not something that should be encouraged in the secret world. Mainly, this is just in case someone happens along who might have a better idea of how to go about things, and – consequently – makes everyone else look a bit of a tit.
