They're taking the fun out of political memoirsI bet when Christopher Meyer wrote DC Confidential -- his account of serving as the UK Ambassador to the US during the initial stages of the Iraq war -- he thought he was getting some important things off his chest. And well he might, but he's also primarily responsible for a new government crackdown on political memoirs: The Government plans to seize the profits from books written by former civil servants and political advisers to deter officials from publishing their memoirs. So did Meyer, as government officials believe, do "lasting damage to the relationship between ministers and their officials"? It remains to be seen what effect the book really had, but I'm not sure how readily enforceable this provision may end up being. Anyone with more qualified thoughts is welcome to share, of course.
