Britain's biggest ever traitor :
--------------------------------
Red Sonia, Christine Keeler and the final, damning evidence

By Chapman Pincher

Espionage never ceases, and that applies with particular force to the 
Russians, whose activities are now almost back to Cold War levels.

counterespionage was summed up by fellow officer Guy Lidell, who wrote : 
'Roger's view is that the country is full of evilly intentioned persons

This might explain the level of Soviet penetration. Fresh examples 
continue to emerge. I can reveal that the combined researches of Dr 
Chervonnaya and myself have identified James MacGibbon, a well-known 
figure in the publishing world, as a 'super agent' known as Milord, who 
supplied the Russian Embassy with copious material garnered from the MI6 
interception centre at Bletchley Park, Buckinghamshire.

Milord, who worked in the War Office, stole so much information derived 
from secret German radio messages that at one point it was proposed that 
he fill a diplomatic bag with the transcripts. MacGibbon was given the 
Order of Lenin, one of the highest Soviet honours. But he died in 
respectability aged 88, his neighbours none the wiser.

Despite a confession, released after his death, the MacGibbon case was 
entirely ignored in The Authorised History Of MI5...../snip/
