MI6 is this country’s foreign intelligence service. Not content with having a female Chancellor of the Exchequer, Home Secretary and Justice Secretary (along with too many other female ministers) Two-Tier Keir has decided we need a female head of MI6, or “C”. From a piece (£) in yesterday’s Sunday Times:

“As Q she has championed under-represented groups, [J4MB: recruiting and promoting women and BME people ahead of men and white people, white men in particular] including encouraging neurodiverse people into tech careers.”

The start of the BBC piece:

“MI6 will be led by a woman for the first time in the foreign intelligence service’s 116-year history.

Blaise Metreweli, who joined the Secret Intelligence Service in 1999, will become the 18th chief of the organisation and take over from Sir Richard Moore later this year.

She is currently [J4MB: As “Q”] responsible for technology and innovation at the service and said she was “proud and honoured” to have been asked to lead.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer called the appointment “historic” at a time “when the work of our intelligence services has never been more vital”.

MI6 is tasked with gathering intelligence overseas to improve the UK’s security, with its core aims being to stop terrorism, disrupt the activities of hostile states and bolster cyber-security.

Its chief, commonly referred to as “C”, is the only publicly named member of the service.”

The appointment is only “historic”, to use Starmer’s term, in relation to the new chief being a woman. Presumably no black woman was available, scandalous! He has put a woman known for recruiting and advancing women and BME people at the expense of men and white people – fully consistent with Starmer’s own practice since becoming PM – regardless of the inevitable negative impacts on morale and efficiency and effectiveness of the foreign intelligence service, and in turn this country’s security.
