Did John le Carré steal the real story of an MI6 spy for one of his bestsellers?

It was December 1996 and my father had just bought a copy of John le Carré s newly published spy thriller, The Tailor Of Panama. When he saw that the book s hero had almost the same surname as him, he smiled. But the further he read, the more the coincidences began to pile up, and by the time he d reached the end, he was astonished. This wasn t a fictional spy tale, he told himself. This was the story of his own father s life. Dad was amazed but also angry. He had known that his father worked for the Secret Intelligence Services, also known as MI6, in the Second World War, but when he had tried to get hold of a copy of his file, he d been told it didn t exist.

William Federer: Bill of Rights — The Patriot Post

After the Constitutional Convention ended, George Washington commented to Marquis de Lafayette, February 7, 1788: âWith regard to the two great points (the pivots on which the whole machine must move) my creed is simply: First, That the general Government is not invested with more powers than are indispensably necessary to perform functions of a good government â¦ Secondly, That these Powers â¦ are so distributed among the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial Branches, into which the general Government is arranged, that it can never be in danger of degenerating into a monarchy, an oligarchy, an aristocracy, or any other despotic or oppressive form; so long as there shall remain any virtue in the body of the People â¦â
