Ex-MI6 officer in hiding after Trump dossier
An ex-MI6 officer who is believed to have prepared memos claiming Russia has compromising material on US President-elect Donald Trump is now in hiding, the BBC understands. Christopher Steele, who runs a London-based intelligence firm, is believed to have left his home this week.
BBC News correspondent Paul Wood said he understood Mr Steele left his home on either Tuesday or Wednesday, before he was publicly named, and was now "in hiding". Our correspondent said he had been shown the memos about Mr Trump in October last year, when he was told Mr Steele was "in fear of his life", having spoken out about potential Russian involvement in Mr Trump's election. He said he had been told by members of the intelligence community that Mr Steele was "extremely highly regarded" and was thought of as "competent".
As a member of MI6, he had been posted to the UK's embassy in Moscow and now runs a consultancy giving advice on doing business in Russia. He spoke to a number of his old contacts in the FSB, the successor to the KGB, paying some of them for information.

I was told by my desi-friends on my first visit to the US in '97 that holding hands or shoulder-holding and even wearing speedos to the swimming pool is "considered gay".
Really? :O
