Who’s the Brit master spook
that lives on the web and is down with the Dead?
ALLAN!
Damn right.
The most senior British intelligence official, appointed yesterday to oversee MI5, MI6 and GCHQ, has a website revealing his home address, phone numbers and private photographs of himself, family and friends.
Alex Allan, 56, is the new head of the Joint Intelligence Committee (JIC) with access to sensitive documents and information regarding anti-terrorist operations.
But the details on his website, described by a security official as “a serious breach”, reveal him as a devoted fan of the American rock band Grateful Dead and a keen cyclist who once windsurfed to work in Westminster during a train strike.
Rumor has it that DNI McConnell, upon learning of his UK counterpart’s gaff, was ROTFLHAO.

Well he updates his online resume pretty frequently - it already states that he’s chairman of the JIC.

That said, he clearly has good experience dealing with intelligence customers:
