And another dossier

Sir Richard was also involved in another controversial moment for the MI6, the publication of the Iraq Dossier in 2003, where the government set out its case against the then leader of Iraq, dictator Saddam Hussein.

The “dodgy dossier”, as it became later known, highlighted the supposed capability of Iraq to produce weapons of mass destruction, making Hussein a threat to the world.

The dossier played an important part in the British involvement in the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

quotation attributed to Winston Churchill, "Don't talk to me about naval tradition. It's nothing but rum, sodomy, and the lash."

Agreed.

They should have stuck to clams.

Forgot this one in there…as Dearlove had a mention in the BlairPutin article.

https://themarketswork.com/2018/05/20/sir-richard-dearlove-uk-intelligence-ties/In my opinion, it’s Sir Richard Dearlove who should be receiving the closest look.

Dearlove – the former Head of MI6 – appears to be the one constant in the overseas connections. As far as I can tell, he knows every single player.

It was Dearlove who advised Christopher Steele and his partner Chris Burrows to work with a top British government official to pass along information to the FBI:

In the early fall, he [Steele] and Burrows turned to Dearlove, their former MI6 boss, for advice…They asked for his guidance about how to handle their obligations to their client and the public, Dearlove recalled.

Dearlove said their situation reminded him of a predicament he had faced years earlier, when he was chief of station for British intelligence in Washington and alerted U.S. authorities to British information that a vice presidential hopeful had once been in communication with the Kremlin.

He said he advised Steele and Burrows to work discreetly with a top British government official to pass along information to the FBI.
