Former MI6 officer Christopher Steele, who produced Donald Trump Russian dossier, 'terrified for his safety' and went to ground before name released

A former MI6 officer who produced a dossier making lurid allegations about Donald Trump is “terrified for his safety” after he was unmasked by a US publication.

Christopher Steele, 52, fled from his home in Surrey on Wednesday morning after realising it was only a matter of time until his name became public knowledge.

A source close to Mr Steele said on Wednesday night that he now fears a prompt and potentially dangerous backlash against him from Moscow.

Mr Steele, the co-founder of London-based Orbis Business Intelligence Ltd, prepared a 35-page document that alleges the Kremlin colluded with Mr Trump’s presidential campaign and that the Russian security services have material that could be used to blackmail him, including an allegation that he paid prostitutes to defile a bed that had been slept in by Barack and Michelle Obama.

His research was initially funded by anti-Trump Republicans, and later by Democrats.

3. I would assume MI6 is hiding and protecting him.

God bless him and MI6!

5. Doubt it - Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Service is not fond of having its name in the press

Only if he was preparing the report with their approval would they feel responsible for him.

Maybe he'll wind up in some embassy somewhere.

7. If he was a longtime operative he likely still

Has enough underground contacts to just disappear.

4. Bless him. I hope they are keeping him safe.

Waiting to hear what else was uncovered...

6. Hope he is deep in a safe place

8. Well if he's harmed

I will blame Trump himself, Comey, Putin and the entire GOP that didn't stand against Trump. I don' t know if he did this out of any idea except doing his job or if he saw Trump a danger to the world. Either way if he is patient zero he will sadly have much company to come.

9. I get triggered by 'dossiers' coming out of the U.K.

Rembember the 'dodgy dossier'?
