Belgium extradites Brit conman over alleged police assaults

 Talking of curious but compelling movies, the non-fiction Rogue Agent is most bizarre and distinctively different. It’s about the real MI6 conman Robert Freegard and stars James Norton and Gemma Arterton. Declan Lawn and Adam Patterson produced the film. Fact is often stranger than fiction, so this real life film is intense and makes for psychologically scary watching.

Ignoring Rogue Agent and The Courier, sadly there’s not enough fact based espionage on the menu so after watching Rogue Agent why not try reading another non-fiction thriller about a real life Maverick Agent instead. We suggest a noir espionage masterpiece could do the trick. One compelling thriller springs to mind. It’s a down to earth intriguing real life novel called Beyond Enkription, the first stand-alone thriller in The Burlington Files, about a not so boring accountant (Bill Fairclough, codename JJ, aka Edward Burlington) who infiltrates a global organised crime syndicate while unwittingly working for MI6.

If you have already devoured and liked Beyond Enkription or The Courier, the Cumberbatch film about Greville Wynne, you should love Rogue Agent. Just like Ben Macintyre’s The Spy and the Traitor about KGB Colonel Oleg Gordievsky, these are all “must reads or must views” for espionage cognoscenti. See https://theburlingtonfiles.org and http://bit.ly/BillFairclough-WTBio for more facts about a real Maverick Agent.

Do look up the authors or books mentioned on Amazon, Google The Burlington Files or visit https://theburlingtonfiles.org and http://bit.ly/BillFairclough-WTBio and read Beyond Enkription.

ESPIONAGE ANECDOTES 001 If you're interested in the Cambridge Five, this anecdote may be of interest. John le Carré described Ben Macintyre's fact based novel, The Spy and The Traitor, as "the best true spy story I have ever read". It was about Kim Philby's Russian counterpart, a KGB Colonel named Oleg Gordievsky, codename Sunbeam. In 1974 Gordievsky became a double agent working for MI6 in Copenhagen which was when Bill Fairclough aka Edward Burlington unwittingly launched his career as a secret agent for MI6. Fairclough and le Carré knew of each other: le Carré had even rejected Fairclough's suggestion in 2014 that they collaborate on a book. As le Carré said at the time, "Why should I? I've got by so far without collaboration so why bother now?" A realistic response from a famous expert in fiction in his eighties!   Gordievsky never met Fairclough, but he did know Fairclough's handler, Colonel Alan McKenzie aka Colonel Alan Pemberton...

 ESPIONAGE ANECDOTES 002 What is it with the British political elite and Russia? Johnson and Cummings have been worshipping all things Russian since they were teenagers and the Sunak mob have a mere £650 million invested in Russia. An unusual report on the web entitled Britain's Dismal Dossier on Russian Political Infiltration by Bill Fairclough (author of The Burlington Files autobiographical espionage series) actually names over 60 people with "Russian links" known to Johnson/Cummings who may have influenced their past decisions. Rest assured that your understanding of UK/USA/Russian politics will change completely forever if you read the report.   Do ask yourself, have you as many friends and acquaintances from any foreign nation as Johnson and/or Cummings have somehow accumulated in Russia? Why should anyone believe Johnson puts his country before himself or believe his anti-Russian rhetoric? In 2016 when campaigning for Brexit he accused the EU of provoking Rus...
