Trump Leak Scandal Engulfs Brexit Party
Police close in on ‘Eurosceptic’ in Whitehall
The chairman of Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party was last night embroiled in the “Trump files” leak scandal as it emerged that he is in a relationship with the writer whose story brought down Britain’s ambassador to Washington.
Richard Tice, a Brexit Party MEP, is dating Isabel Oakeshott, who last week published leaked diplomatic cables in which Sir Kim Darroch branded Donald Trump “clumsy and inept”, forcing Darroch’s resignation when the president announced he would not work with him.
The revelation came as senior security sources said a suspect has been identified for the leaks - amid “panic” in Whitehall that a “pro-Brexit Kim Philby” figure has been at work trying to undermine officials not deemed supportive enough of leaving the EU.
