Accredit This

Still hardly any coverage of the unrest in Madagascar. The fourth-largest island in the world is populous (and increasingly so), is strategically placed (both as Africa emerges and as we have to deal with Indian Ocean piracy), and was British until 1890. But we now have no embassy in that country, to which we now pay no overseas aid. We will be sorry, and sooner rather than later.
