From England-IT would be the perfect cover. With the geeky specs and narrow shoulders that make him a dead ringer for the vicar from Dad’s Army, Justin Welby would be the spy nobody ever saw coming. He looks so weedy he couldn’t hurt a fly even if he wanted to, but his enemies would be laughing on the other side of their faces when he pulls out the Walther PPK he carries hidden under his surplice.
Maybe he can kill with his bare hands.
Yesterday morning Lambeth Palace put out a statement emphatically denying that the new Archbishop of Canterbury works for MI6, ever has done or has ever had any connection with Britain’s external spy service. Unless the head of the worldwide Anglican Communion is prepared to break the eighth commandment and tell porky pies, we are obliged to believe that statement.
But the fact that his office felt the need to issue it at all is a sign there may be much more to Dr Welby than meets the eye.
His staff were responding to the publication of a grainy photograph showing the new Archbishop, at the time the humble director of the International Centre for Reconciliation at Coventry Cathedral, on a visit to Baghdad in 2003. Pictured in the same group, although not immediately next to him, is Sir John Sawers, who was the UK Special Representative in Iraq at the time and went on to become head of MI6, the job he still holds. They were also observed shaking hands and conversing for fi ve minutes.
