Dear Sir or Ma'am,
It has come to my attention that you appear to be experiencing difficulties with communist insurgents in certain oriental colonies. As a nation of former colonials and proud associates of the British Empire ourselves it is not hard for us to sympathise with your plight. You may be aware of the events of the Great Survival War, a conflict which shook us to the core. That conflict was a result of the old government underestimating our Marxist adversaries. It takes a certain tenacity to maintain belief in a dead, wholly flawed ideology such as theirs and we found to our sorrow that such tenacity translates rather well to militarised viciousness.
As such it is in all our best interests to prevent the spread of aforementioned ideology and ensure, to the best of our abilities, that you do not fall afoul of their trickery and brutish willpower as we Shackleyers did before. I have it on the authority of my most gracious Lord Protector that we are willing and able to provide military aid in an alliance with your glorious Empire to this end.
That is all for now.
Many salutations and respects,
With Dignity and Persistence
Basil Hawthorne

Que ten chimes from the Big Ben clocktower...
Good Evening this is the BBC News at Ten o'clock. I am Godwin Crowthorne with this evening's news. The main stories tonight. Chinese Embassies across the British Dominions and Territories were vacated today as instructed by His Majesty the King. Several rogue Chinese diplomats attempted to remain in British sovereign territoy but have now all been hunted down. Beijing is accusing the British Government of heavyhandedness especially in regards to a number of strikes and raids carried out by British security forces throughout Malaysia today, more footage from that later. Reports are also emerging that several Royal Navy formations from Australasia, India and the China Sea are merging into a single combat battlegroup, our chief war correspondant Robert Twyford will explain further shortly. Other news includes..

Communique of His Majesty's Government of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and His Majesty's Dominions, Viceroyalties and Territories
The Foreign and Empire Office
Dear Sir Basil Hawthorne,
His Majesty is very touched by your concern for our troubles regarding China and their exporting of Communism at this present stage. However at this present juncture military aid to operations being carried within the Empire would be inappropriate as such a development would mean His Majesty's subjects being killed by a foreighn power in His own territories. That being said it is incumbent upon me to inform you that wider regional hostilities may occur and in that event, your military assistance will not be unwelcome. Further to that end His Majesty's Government would like to invite you to a weekend at the official country residence of the Foreign Secretary: Chevening in the Duchy of Kent. It is a secluded but incredibly pleasant rural retreat situated in the 'Garden of England' and there is much ground for shooting, riding and many other activities should you wish to partake in them on your visit. Talks will be conducted by the Foreign Secretary and other Cabinet Ministers and military officials who will be confirmed at a later date.
We hope you accept our invitation to discussion regarding this situation.
Sincerely,
George Fawndale, Personal Private Secretary to His Majesty's Secretary of State for the Foreign and Empire Office
Signed
Lord Aberdeenshire, Gordon James Arbuthnott 9th Duke of Aberdeenshire KG, KT, PC

Official Communique of the Foreign Affairs Department of the People’s Republic of Cedoria
For Distribution to World Capitals, Embassy Partners and Relevant Parties:
The People’s Republic of Cedoria must profess itself appalled at the execution by the colonial power of Brittanic-Albion of a number of diplomatic aides and representatives of the People’s Republic of China. Such barbarity and inhospitable behaviour is unbecoming for a nation that purports itself the height of civilised conduct and is instead the behaviour of unprincipled barbarians.
It is a long-established practice of international diplomacy that the person of diplomatic personnel is inviolate. For reasons which do not need to be enumerated, the ongoing right of diplomatic personnel to conduct their business unmolested is a key part of harmonious and stable world relations. No wonder Britannic-Albion has few allies, if it executes such distinguished personnel as this recklessly.
If the accusations levelled against Bejing’s conduct are true, the option of expulsion and further economic or diplomatic sanction was open. No state could quibble at Britannic conduct in such circumstances. But the unforgivable barbarism inherent in the execution of diplomatic personnel should render Brittanic-Albion utterly unfit to walk the halls with other principled or modern nations of the world. Its actions are excessive, criminal and unnecessary.
We formally condemn in the strongest possible terms the savage and unjustified execution of diplomatic personnel by any state, and urge all other nations to pay heed to Brittanic conduct. No state can ever have trust or faith in the word of Britannic-Albion, nor the safe passage of their emissaries or envoys, in any future dealings from this point forward.
We call upon Prime Minister Gressingham to thoroughly denounce the atrocities committed by his country in these past few hours, and urge him to punish the responsible parties. All nations are urged to stand beside us in condemnation of this unconscionable massacre of diplomatic staff and personnel, and we warn all involved that legal and proportionate justice will be exacted if those responsible are not brought to face justice for their crimes, for the violation of diplomatic immunity is a crime that can never be forgiven, nor left unpunished, regardless of the justification the criminals may use.
Commissar of Foreign Affairs Robin Mervis, People’s Republic of Cedoria.
General Secretary of the Communist Party of Cedoria, Chairman Treavor Sorenson, People’s Republic of Cedoria.

DIPLOMATIC ENCRYPTION
ATTN: AMBASSADOR DRAKE
Inform Lord Aberdeenshire and the government of Lord Gressingham that President Adams supports their efforts to contain Chinese influence in Malaysia. If needed Astorian satellite reconnaissance and other support services can be made available to troops operating against the UCA. However emphasize diplomatically that recent harshness towards Chinese diplomatic staff makes further public expressions of support problematic. Request Albion share any intelligence which links UCA to jihadist groups operating in Malaysia/Indonesia/Philippines. ---Secretary Tallmer

Dear sir,
I thank you heartily for your invitation. It has been some while since I have been abroad and longer still since I last trod upon your green and pleasant lands. An excursion to Kent would be most welcome and I look forward to the fine company. I fear my shooting arm may be a tad rusty but nothing eases these old bones like a good brisk walk.
With regard to our offer of military aid I can assure you the last thing we want is to intrude on your national sovereignty. Simply we wish to forge a mutually beneficial alliance and defend our shared interests from the forces of international socialism. I look forward to discussing these issues when I arrive in country but for the meantime know that our own Royal Navy possesses certain assets in the Indian Ocean should you require more immediate assistance; I'm sure His Majesty the Lord Protector will be able to pull some strings to that end. If my sources are correct we may not need tread Shackleyan boots on your colonial soil to take the fight to our enemy.
Best wishes from your humble friend,
With Dignity and Persistence
Basil Hawthorne

From: United Socialist States of Caracasus - Council Elect
It has reached the attention of the Council Elect that a number of diplomats belonging to the People's Republic of China may have been killed while under the protection of Britannic Albion by Albion military forces.
Should these claims prove to have merit, we would of course be forced to reconsider existing trade relationships, berthing and harbor privileges and several multilateral treaties that the United Socialist States of Caracasus has entered into in good faith with Britannic Albion, as per our own obligations regarding multilateral agreements on protection of diplomatic staff.
We would like to offer an impartial investigation of the crime scene to determine the full extent of this incident. As we are certain Britannic Albion's government would not wish to be considered an international menace on the world stage, we would urge that this request is granted and that our investigators are given full access to the crime scene at the earliest possible opportunity to avoid accusations of potential cover ups.

TO: Brittanic Albion authorities in Singapore
ENCR: Rila-BZ300 (light)
A regional power seeks to escalate its support to the UCA. I have been involved in meetings with some officials of this power, and recent events have inclined me to believe that I have become an expendable asset for entirely political reasons - reasons unrelated to my military conduct or quality of service, which, until now, were profoundly loyal and exemplary. The betrayal on the part of my own state has made me revoke my loyalty, and with great pain I must inform you that I wish to defect to your forces.
I am aboard a ship carrying civilian supplies to the UCA. The vessel is set to dock in Port Klang, but only after an anchor stop outside Singapore where it will collect UCA operatives. For security reasons, their names have not yet been divulged to me. I am not yet aware how civilian supplies can benefit the UCA, but I have strong suspicions on what they may be used for.
I will continue to act my part in this operation in an attempt to find out more, particularly the names of these operatives and the use for these supplies. I strongly recommend that your forces abstain from taking action until the matter has progressed further. I will inform you once the ship approaches Singapore. Attached in this message are instructions how to get back in touch with me using specific messaging services.

The Bulgarian revolutionary collective welcomes your stance on the hawkish and irreparable actions of Britain. It is of utmost necessity that progressive Socialist nations condemn and contain these actions to prevent a further spread of the consumerist disease, particularly in the sensitive region of Southeast Asia.
To discuss further ways to reinforce our commitment to revolutionary changes in the name of social fairness, we propose a coordinating summit between representatives of our State Presidium and your leadership. Should you agree to this proposal, we will issue a list of our representatives and possible locations for the event.

The Revolutionary entity is delighted to learn that our opinions coincide.
Our delegation will consist of brothers by the number of 5 (Party Standing Committee president), 7 (foreign affairs), and 15 (Bureau 73 under the People's Committee of Defence). For security reasons, Brother Number One cannot attend at this point.
As a venue of the summit, we suggest the Murcaanyo Beach Hotel & Resort in Revolutionary Somalia. Security and hospitality will be provided by the Somali side, in accordance with the highest standards of quality. Flights are available to Bosaso; your party will be escorted to Murcaanyo by Somali State Security.
Should you agree to this location, we will initiate assembly of our representatives immediately.

China sending hundreds, very possibly thousands of armed irregulars over border, perhaps of Laosian background, some unclear. Making jungle crossings. Thai sources report influx of ‘workers’. URGENT ACTION REQUIRED. Martial law recommended, thousands of armed Constables and Soldiers necessary. Full report to be sent.
Colonel Kurz
MI6 are keen that you complete your mission as orgininally planned however we will intercept you en route to Singapore to track the materials and give you further instructions. You will be boarded by a small troop of SAS commandos under Major Lodewikus van Rooyen-Botha who will search the ship, brief you and will take one of your crew members with them. You must provide us with your coordinates immediately upon recieving this message. Any mishaps on your end will result in the apprehension and likely deaths of yourself and all your crew after an excruciating interrogation. Albion welcomes defectors but will not tolerate games.

Negative.
Until I find out more, any action similar to what you propose will risk failure, or worse, for both our sides. Furthermore, do not bother with threats of torture. The power I formerly served is exceptionally proficient in hiding its secrets. Any attempt of forced entry into this mission will result in the loss of all valuable connections to those in charge. Any disturbance to the mission will be easily detected, so once again - do not attempt to board. You will extract nothing if you do. Conversely, I may easily transfer the name of your Major to my superiors. They still have no knowledge of the situation and would certainly commend my service, and then deploy resources to engage any units and officers threatening this sortie. Given the current international situation, this may trigger a particularly dangerous chain of events.
I will notify you of the ship's location and name once we approach our primary objective. By that point, I shall have the names of the UCA operatives we must collect. To ensure that they do not reach their intended destination, I will sabotage one of the ship's engines shortly after the pick-up, something I possess the intricate knowledge of doing. Your forces may then board the ship concealed as a civilian inspection party, or even pirates - this may catch the crew off-guard in case they have any rules of engagement I am not familiar with.
Confirm receipt and understanding of this message as soon as possible.
Colonel Kurtz
P.S.
If this information would be of any use to you, the cargo consists entirely of agricultural supplies and machinery. There is a small cache of weaponry and some communications equipment, but I strongly doubt they will be used to equip a UCA insurgent cell. Terrorist or sabotage activity is far more likely.

You have chosen an irritating path but we shall accommodate this folly as best as we can. When you dock in Singapore you MUST make contact with a local British Army intelligence officer who will meet you in the Tiger Tea House, there is only one. He will have a pot of jasmine tea and three prawn dumplings. He will brief you before returning to your ship. If you do not meet him the port will be shutdown until your ship is found. You have chosen to play a dangerous game Colonel, but if you bat to our rules it will be less perilous.

I'm glad you see reason. As previously discussed, I shall inform you of the ship's name on the approach to Singapore. Once docked, I shall proceed to the appointed location immediately. No paper documents are carried - standard procedure. However, I do have in my possession an encrypted communications port that can be used to access whatever files are assigned to my operational task roll.
