Thames House, the headquarters of the British Security Service (MI5) is seen in London, Britain October 22, 2015. Have you heard the one about the lord, the gangster and the prime minister's wife? An old scandal from the 1960s re-emerges in lurid new detail from declassified British intelligence files featuring prominent politician Lord Boothby, his mistress, who was the wife of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, and notorious racketeer Ronnie Kray. They reveal that Kray had procured Boothby with a young gay lover, that Kray and Boothby were both "hunters of young men" who had attended illicit parties together, and that Boothby's hidden life was causing concern at the top of the state.
