The British High Commissioner was just expelled for information contained in a leaked diplomatic cable. Jon posted some background a few days ago, and BBC confirmed it today. Things could get a little dicey around here, and I don't just mean that the Malawian delegation to the royal wedding will be uninvited...
Seems like a good time to get out of Malawi for a bit, and we're long overdue for a vacation anyway. It's a little sad to miss the immediate fallout from this diplomatic guffaw, but I'm sure that the pace of any backlash will be at Malawi speed: slow. We won't miss everything.
More as it unfolds!
Yikes! Be careful, you guys!
