‘When we have gold we are in fear … ‘ is the first half of an old English proverb. John McDowell was ‘gold commander’ in charge of the assassination operation (surveillance this is called in jargon) on Jean Charles de Menezes on 22 July. ‘We did our best’ he is reported saying. But, obviously, that’s not always good enough, as the proverb continues: ‘… when we have none we are in danger’.
