"THE DOWNING STREET MINUTES

If any one looked objectively they would know.

If anyone used a dictionary they would know.

If anyone asked a secretary they would know.

If anyone studied judiciously they would know.

A memo is an inter-office communication.

Minutes are the real-time record of a meeting, whose veracity is checked by all members attending, and are given to all members attending, and must be kept by all attending. Minutes are the true and accurate testimony of what transpired. If a conspiracy to commit a crime happened during a meeting, and those minutes were made public, and the criminals were government ministers, and the crime was an illegal war — there SHOULD BE HELL TO PAY."
