MI6 has never had a female spy chief. That could be about to change

Real-life spies say their world is nothing like that of James Bond, but in one way truth may soon follow fiction: MI6 could be about to get its first female leader



MI6 is seeking a new chief, and the current head, Richard Moore, hopes his replacement will be a woman, marking a historic first for the agency. While other UK intelligence agencies have already appointed female leaders, MI6 has never had a female chief in its 116-year history. Moore has apologized for past discrimination within MI6 and emphasized the importance of diversity. The selection process is underway, with potential candidates from within MI6 and other sectors, and an announcement is expected in the summer.
