Malawi and the UK found themselves in a diplomatic row in 2012 that resulted in the mutual expulsion of their envoys.Bingu wa Mutharika expelled British High CommissionerFergus Cochrane-Dyet for calling him "arrogant" and "intolerant" after a leaked cable was published inThe Nation newspaper.[1] The United Kingdom in return expelled acting High CommissionerFlossie Gomile-Chidyaonga[2] and revoked her invitation to the royal wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
