Cochrane-Dyet Cable

In a Wiki-Leaked cable to England, British High Commissioner to Malawi Fergus Cochrane-Dyet referred to Malawi's President Bingu wa Mutharika as arrogant, and "ever more autocratic and intolerant of criticism.".[7] This was printed in the Malawian newspaper, The Nation. This led to wa Mutharika's expulsion of the envoy, and a request for a replacement. In retaliation, the British government expelled Gomile-Chidyaonga, who was the Acting High Commissioner for Malawi in Britain at the time.[8] They also revoked her invitation to the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.[9]
