"During the war his vital research into the military application of electronics led to his rapid promotion to the rank of major." "After the war he gave to this company the same loyalty that he had before given to the nation."

" Sir James." "And the Right Honourable Basil Keyes, I think you know." " Basil." " James." "Do sit down, Sir James." "Morrison, draw the curtains." "Sir James you are a man of business." "You deal in facts and figures." "Well, that is what we are here to give you today." "My colleagues and I are confident that we can offer you an association with our country that will be as profitable to you as to ourselves." "Film please, Brewster." "The coastline of Zingara an uninterrupted stretch of golden sand, perfect for swimming, water sports and all the leisure facilities demanded by holiday makers from the industrial centres in Europe and the Americas." "The island already boasts one large hotel." "Visitors can take their ease in surroundings of luxury and sophistication." " A brandy, please." " Yes, sir." "Picturesque entertainment is provided by Zingaran natives performing their age-old rituals for patrons of our holiday lodges in the hill district." "Here in surroundings of peace and calm staffs are being specially trained satisfy European demands for courtesy and service." "A massive program of hotel construction is already underway." "Experienced European engineers are supervising the native labour force in the construction of the Zingara Continental Hotel." "Your brandy, sir." "The completed hotel, with its splendid public facilities provides 500 rooms." "Each with colour television and private bathroom." "Thank you, Brewster." "Very attractive." "But your plans for industry?" "Our free export zone will offer generous advantages to all concerns financed by foreign capital." "Repatriation of profits?" "Mr. Souza." "Guaranteed to any country you care to nominate." "Venezuela, the Vatican, Liechtenstein, et cetera." "Oh, thanks very much." "Labour costs?" "My home secretary, Mrs. Naidu, will explain the favourable arrangements we are planning for this area." "Labour conditions in Zingara offer excellent opportunities for the foreign investor." "Rates of pay and working conditions are regulated by the government." "Consequently, strikes and slowdowns are a thing unknown." "Film, Brewster, please." "The efficiency and variety of our light industrial installations are a joy to behold." "The Bumangi sausage factory has a daily output of over 2000 pounds prime first-quality sausages." "All 75 percent genuine meat." "Special attention is paid to cleanliness." "Experience has shown that production levels benefit considerably when the sexes are segregated." "The workers' living quarters are also segregated." "Here is an ultra-modern male workers' camp on the outskirts of Bikana." "Their women are housed in a similar camp some 35 miles distant." "Male workers are paid the equivalent of 7 New-English pence per day and females, at 3." "Foreign technicians are welcome in Zingara." "Life for our foreign visitors will be fully commensurate with the standards of living and convenience enjoyed by their colleagues in America or the European Common Market." "They will also be exempted from all personal income tax." "Thank you." "Thank you, Sir James." "Well, Sir James." "I hope we have convinced you that Zingara today presents a unique opportunity for secure investment and a high rate of return." "There is just one consideration that troubles me, Mr. President." " Please." "What guarantees can you provide for the safe-guarding of investment?" "I refer, of course, to the threat of insurrection." "Sir James I will be completely honest." "It is true that a small element of our people have been attempting to cause unrest in our northern territories." "This problem we have firmly in hand." "We're fortunate to have the services of Colonel Steiger whose achievements in the Congo, Nigeria and more recently, Bangladesh must be well-known to you." "I have asked Colonel Steiger himself to report on the situation." "The rebels number roughly 2000 men and women." "Projection." "They are operating in the northern territories in two main groups." "My counter-offensive has taken the form of a two-pronged blitz blanket bombardment by artillery and aircraft followed by landings of airborne policing detachments employing scorched-earth and random-elimination techniques." "My men are professionals, experienced in guerilla warfare." "The rebels are amateurs, inexperienced and weak in defence." "So insurgent losses are heavy." "Over 300 killed." "Four hundred and fifty captured and interned." "In view of your undoubted superiority, Colonel Steiger can you tell us why this insurrection still persists?" "The terrain is unfavourable, sir." "Jungle and swamp favour the native." "That is why we need honey." "Honey?" "Precisely." "Your British honey." "The substance known as PL-45." "Or in the terminology of my profession, "honey."" "Let me show you some examples." "Slide, please." "This is a man who has received a light exposure to this invaluable weapon." "And again." "And again." "And again." "And again." "A beer mug full of honey can create a lethal zone for all forms of terrestrial life within an area of 15 acres." "Low-flying aircraft spraying PL-45 can cover 100 square miles in two hours." "Thank you." "This is all I need to finish the job." "Impressive." "But you understand, Colonel Steiger that granted supplies of adequate quantities of honey you are prepared to guarantee the internal stability of your territory?" "You have my word." "Basil, a moment." "Champagne, monsieur?" " Thank you very much, ma'am." " Please." "Thank you." "Glad to see you made it, old boy." "Stick with the old man." "You'll run a good wicket." "Cheers." " Cheers." " Yes" "Yes." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "I don't think you've met my new assistant, Travis." "Travis, this is Basil Keyes." "I could send Travis along sometime tomorrow." "We've got a night sitting, that should finish before lunch." " So anywhere near the House of Commons." " Right." "Mr. President, I'll take these documents home with me, if I may." "Study them thoroughly." "I shan't keep you waiting." " Well, it must be all of 40 years." " Thirty nine." " I shared digs with the president's brother." " How nice." "I shall never forget that wonderful spring morning in your room at Balliol." "You and Peter drunk on the bookshelves." "Karl Marx and Keynes on the floor." " How is Peter?" " In detention, alas."

"Well, you can't." "I might." "I haven't decided yet." "But I love you and I'm going to marry you." "Look." "Oh, Michael." "You're so hopelessly conventional." "I told you I was gonna be a success."

"Now, is there anyone here you recognize?" "Yes." "That is the man." "Thank you, Beevers." "I beg your pardon, Mr. Travis, may I have that bag?" "Just a minute." "Did you sign this, sir?" "Yes." "Is this your signature, sir?" "Yes." "Is this your signature, sir?" "No." "Is this your signature, sir?" "Oh, no." "Complete forgery." "Not worth the paper it's written on." "Bag, please."

"If such perfidy can be committed without fear of retribution then how can the rule of law, patriotism, duty the very basis of our society, hope to survive?" "Well, go and consider your verdict carefully." "And take your time." "Be upstanding in court." "Be upstanding in court." "Members of the jury have you arrived at a verdict on which you are all agreed?" " We have, My Lord." " Do you find the prisoner guilty or not guilty?" " Guilty, My Lord." "May I say how entirely I agree with that verdict." "The prisoner will stand to receive sentence." "Society is based on good faith on a commonly accepted bond."
