Britain to France (SECRET) :
we agree to a defensive alliance, but we don't approve of your part in this Spanish farce. We also hope you can end your quarrel with the cubans soon.
to Italy:
Of course. We shoul have known, but now we have complete faith in your good intentions. You are only looking out for the good of the Spanish people, and therefore you will of course leave Spain as completely independant once you are finished installing a legitimate and benevolent government. We applaud your noble efforts, being so generous as to look out for the Spaniards without any thought of compensation beyond moral fulfillment.
Message to the Indian Anarchists responsible for the assassination:
You have picked the wrong time to piss us off. We are hunting you. If you were not part of the assassination, cooperate and nothing will be done to you. Otherwise, you better get your asses out of British territory pretty damn quick, because we're coming for you.
Just to show they weren't joking, British officials have made this message widely known, with a bit of extra nonsense about protecting the citizens safety etc., and are improving intelligence and simililar operations to lessen the chance of this kind of thing happening again, as well as attempting to root such organizations out before they can do anything.
In an astounding series of legislation, the parliament with the approval of the monarch has almost unanimously decided to turn the British Empire into a democratic union of states, somewhat similar in structure to the system operating in the U.S. (not politically/socially, just in government structures). Certain powers are reserved to the 'federal' government, and certian rights are guaranteed to all citizens and any state that grants rights or priveleges must grant them to all citizens, including from different states. There is still a united military and diplomacy is conducted by the federal government. There is a national legislature, and individual legislatures. But aside from basic stuff along those lines, the states get to decide their own stuff. Effectively all colonies have been granted a great deal of autonomy. The new government of the British Commonwealth has informed the members of the colonies that, now that they have nothing to complain about, any attempt at secession or the like will be met with equal retaliation. If you want to talk about it, and keep the institutions functioning while it is discussed, that's fine, but if there is any use of force or the like it will be responded to swiftly and justly.
