Sir, whether or not you like politics is irrelevent. Are you with or against us? If you are against us, you are little more than an obsticle to be removed at leisure, one that supplies Harriet with oil and money. We will reward you within reason for helping us. You, under our covert protection need simply stop selling oil to Harriet, and sell it to us at the prices she pays +8% There is no risk in this for you, only for us.
"Believe me sir, I am on your side if it is your intention to remove Harriet from the throne. As far as selling you oil goes, that is not a problem either. However, cutting off Mauiwowee proper from our oil is an issue in that the minute we stop deliveries to Australia, The Black Queen will react and that reaction is likely to be violent. What assurances can you give me that we'll be safe from her wrath and the military she can call up to deal with the situation. Clearly she will know we have sided with the rebels at that time. What is the plan for removing her from the throne? Again, have you been in contact with Commodore Bostitch and his fleet of rebeled ships? Merely shutting off Harriet's oil supply will not result in her being removed from the throne - additional action will have to be taken, what is that action going to be and who is going to undertake it? I'm with you, but I need more information."
