You know, we and the Brits have lots of spies that I'm not sure how to take these accusations. She does look so innocent.

Not just us and the Brits, the Russians, Chinese, Israelis all surely have a load of spies, Iran too at that.

And as I've said, you probably have a lot of spies from other countries, Canada would have no spies? I don't think so, even they probably have a few.
