10 Oct: Sky News UK: Ex-MI6 spy’s veiled swipe at Donald Trump revealed
Christopher Steele says it is hard to speak “unpalatable truths to power” as he features on Vanity Fair’s influential people list
By Deborah Haynes
He is the only named British national on the American-dominated countdown.
Topping the chart is Robert Mueller, a former FBI director who is leading a special inquiry into Russia.
Former first lady Michelle Obama is at number six, while singer Beyonce is at number eight.
Mr Trump did not make the list...
But his entry onto the New Establishment List by Vanity Fair appears to have spurred him to make the new remarks in an email to the magazine’s editor-in-chief Radhika Jones.
“I was surprised and honoured, particularly as a Brit, to be included” in the list, his message continued.
“I find myself in the company of many talented and distinguished people, although I personally would not accord such accolades to some of the other foreign nationals included in the list!”...
The former intelligence officer indicated he is unable to travel to the US at a time of deep divisions between Republicans and Democrats over the Russia probe.
“In more normal times, I would have welcomed the opportunity to join you at your New Establishment Summit in the US this week,” Mr Steele wrote.
“Sadly, in the present legal and political situation I am unable to do so, but I sincerely hope and trust that these circumstances will change soon.”
