Former British ambassador vouches for two of the Downing Street Memos

(Via The Washington Note)
In the first part of a serialization of his forthcoming book, Sir Chistopher Meyer, former British ambassador to the U.S., confirms the authenticity of two of the Downing Street Memos:


It was time to put Britain's fix into American thinking before it coagulated and Blair arrived at Crawford, and I arranged to have lunch with Paul Wolfowitz. My report of this encounter was leaked.



A similar list of conditions appears in another leaked document, drawn up following Tony Blair's summit with Bush at the president's ranch in Crawford, Texas, a few weeks later in April 2002.
