It seems like few spies fit the James Bond image. If the news stories about spies are to be believed, most appear to have atypical mores, beliefs, or behaviors. Perhaps it is precisely their predilections that lead them to become experts in concealment and stealth.

The vetting process for this guy sounds like the bad old days of the Clinton administration. MI6 is England’s external security as is our C.I.A..

If one studies WWII, one learns the Brits were (and may still be) quite effective at misdirection, misinformation.

He wasn’t a “spook”. He worked in the Sigint section of GCHQ, the Brit version of the NSA and was on loan to MI6 and had been on personal leave.
