SNP’s word of the day: Camarilla
Illustration by Lewis Mirrett Word: Camarilla
Meaning: A private, often secret, even sinister group of unelected advisors surrounding a leader or ruler; a cabal.
Usage: “SEKVIA’S DARK OUTLOOK; King Peter Dominated by the Military Camarilla. Prospects Are That Radicals Will Win at Approaching Election—King Peter May Then Leave the Country.” – a New York Times cablegram in 1903. (Sekvia, by the way, was in the Balkans… I think.)
