MI6 chief's cover blown through facebook

The British just can't seem to keep secrets. Telegraph

Sir John is due to take up his post as chief of the Secret Intelligence Service, in charge of Britain's spying operations abroad, in November.

But his wife's posting on the social networking site have exposed potentially compromising details about where they live and work, their friends and where they go on holiday.[...]

Lady Sawers posted photographs of the family's holidays and gave details of the location of the family's flat in London and the whereabouts of their three children and of Sir John's parents.

On June 16, the day Sir John's MI6 appointment was announced, she posted 19 pictures of the couple on holiday with their friends in the West Country earlier that month.
