Gets fired and goes to David Corn @ Mother Jones (?)

Christopher Steele, who for two decades was an MI6 operative specialising in Russian affairs, met with David Corn, the Washington bureau chief at news magazine Mother Jones, before last year's Presidential election and told him the allegations warranted a substantial FBI inquiry.

In an article published Friday, Corn revealed that the former spy - whose work has sparked a diplomatic crisis this week - told him: 'The story has to come out'.

Steele also told the journalist, who first published details about the dossier in October last year: 'My track record as a professional is second to no one.' 

An intelligence source has claimed Steele was paid £130,000 to compile the report.
