Following recent events, one has taken pause to consider the precise meaning of “All Remains Broadly Under Control” and can confirm the correct interpretation is as follows:
A state in which, while minor incidents, administrative irregularities, interdepartmental disputes, missing paperwork, striking and/or dancing ants, flappy pigeons, grandiose ducks, peripatetic snails, occasional criminal rat activity and such like may occur, a sufficiently competent member of staff is available to maintain full oversight of events and thus ensure that none of the aforementioned develop into anything requiring undue concern.*
Accordingly, one is pleased to announce that one’s esteemed Independent Senior Adviser for Constitutional & Strategic Matters, Luther, has graciously agreed to assume responsibility for tomorrow’s Morning Patrol.
One feels considerably reassured that under his watchful eyes all will once again remain broadly under control.
One hopes this clarifies matters and thanks one’s human subjects for their patience during this period of minor administrative disruption.
