Charlie's Diary. History: is it about kings, dates, and battles, or the movement of masses and the invisible hand of macroeconomics? There's something to be said for both theories, but I have a new, countervailing theory about the 2. Bond villains.

Mr X weathered the collapse of the previous regime and after a turbulent decade of asset stripping rose to lead a faction of billionaire oligarchs, robber barons, and former secret policemen. Mr X trades on his ruthless reputation—he is said to have ordered a defector murdered by means of a radioisotope so rare that the assassination consumed several months' global production—and despite having an official salary on the order of £2.

Attends military parades on Red Square, natch.

By 2. 00. 7 he had a tropical island base complete with boiler- suited minions from which he launched satellites and around which he drove an electric car: has been photographed wearing a tuxedo and stroking a white cat in his launch control center.
