Foreign Office in London

China's spy agency said Monday the head of a foreign consultancy had been found to be spying for Britain's MI6 intelligence service.

The Ministry of State Security said in a WeChat post that Britain's Secret Intelligence Service — also known as MI6 — used a foreign national with the surname Huang to establish an "intelligence cooperation relationship".

The permanent representative of the UK to the EU Ivan Rogers has resigned suddenly just a few months before Prime Minister Theresa May launches the negotiations for the exit of the country from the EU.

According to Financial Times, Rogers informed embassy staff on Tuesday afternoon that he is leaving his post. He did not specify any reasons for this decision.
