Very Significant — Sir Malcolm Rifkind resigns as Intelligence Committee Chairman and as a Member of Parliament in the United Kingdom ~ link ~ This is the greatest scandal to hit the UK since the Cash-for-Peerages Scandal that forced PM Tony Blair from office. I do not know Sir Malcolm but the other former Foreign Secretary that is involved in this scandal, Jack Straw, I have had direct dealings with. I can tell you that I have little respect for Jack Straw, in specific, and, in general, for most of the British Political Class.
On the surface this is simply a case where a British newspaper caught two famous MPs in a ‘sting’ and secretly filmed them offering influence to a fake Chinese business for large fees. However, I suspect that there is more going on here. Jack Straw had already announced that he is retiring, whereas Sir Malcolm was one of the most powerful people in Britain with his chairmanship over the Intelligence oversight committee in the House of
Commons, the committee that regulates MI5 and MI6.
Keep in mind that there is a hidden struggle between those people, in positions of power and influence, who rightly wish to avoid World War III and those, who are so demonic, that they are actually are working to bring WWIII about. I suspect that bringing Sir Malcolm down had something to do with this hidden struggle and that Jack Straw was a convenient target to confuse the real nature of what was/is happening.
