Re: Boris Johnson
I thought he gave up his US citizenship a couple of years ago , partly through having to file annual income returns.

Re: Boris Johnson
Another interesting point - don't the intelligence services report into the Foreign office?

Re: Boris Johnson
There are multiple reports that he "declared" that he was going to do so, but I can find no reports that he actually did. However a US citizen who renounces his/her US citizenship is assessed an "exit tax" which for a millionaire can be a very substantial amount of money, so given that Boris tried to baulk at paying US taxes, I have a sneaking suspicion that when he discovered the likely tax bill he may have changed his mind.

I thought this was kind of funny - From a top German newspaper
Boris Johnson as Foreign Secretary? That's "British humour"
