MI6 has been ridiculed for relying on a ‘key’ Iraqi source who described unrealistic scenes from Hollywood Blockbuster The Rock.

The Chilcot inquiry highlighted the ludicrous episode as it slammed flawed intelligence assessments that repeatedly suggested Saddam Hussein had significant WMD capabilities – even though no weapons were found.

It also accused chiefs of failing to stand up to Tony Blair as he drove the country towards war.

The long-awaited report said that in September 2002, six months before the invasion, the intelligence agency believed it was on the edge of a ‘significant breakthrough’.

A new source in Iraq was thought to have ‘phenomenal access’ to information about Saddam Hussein’s chemical and biological weapon programme.

The individual had suggested the regime was accelerating its production of such WMD.

The head of MI6, Sir Richard Dearlove, ensured the material was shown directly to Mr Blair – who subsequently wrote a foreword to the so-called ‘dodgy dossier’ saying that Hussein’s threat was beyond doubt.
