🟡They’re panicking because of a nationwide trend that shows Mnangagwa repeatedly losing to Chamisa even where a Zanu MP has won eg Zvishavane Ngezi:

•Zanu PF Mecky Jaravaza - 12416
•CCC Leopold Mudisi - 11348

•Chamisa - 13231
•Mnangagwa - 10194

The situation looks promising. Earlier at the airport, one of the officials asked to see the boarding passes of the four female reporters. 'We were told that there were only males on this flight,' the man said.👀 Sunday Times

Sometimes a crisis hits so hard that a country needs help from others to overcome it. That’s not one-way humanitarian saviourism, it’s international solidarity. 200 South African firefighters land in Edmonton, Canada to help fight the wildfire. Sound up 🔊

Prince Harry makes a very good point re the damage done to trust in your own circle when stories appear and you have no idea where they come from. Some of the biggest fall-outs I had in No 10 arose from suspicions about who was briefing out confidential information 1/4
