I would agree with Philippe. I don't think I am stupid, but I know at times
I have said stupid things.
And I think Fae's concerns are reasonable, and also call into question
whether we should be encouraging tourism revenue to flow to illiberal,

When you consider risk, there is a balance to be found between the greater
