He denies having used those words, but he proceeds to plunge further:-.

"When the Unofficials begin to oppose the Government it would be well if their services were dispensed with."

Thanks. That is just the spirit which was so violently repudiated only a few days back by Mr. GoonMax (who probally did not realise that it is after all the true view of the Officials).
