Right. A thread on another ordinary person who did extraordinary things.

This is Robert Smallbones, career civil servant and diplomat, and his wife Inga.

Between November 1938 and the outbreak of WW2, they helped OVER FORTY THOUSAND Jews escape the Nazis and get to Britain. /1 pic.twitter.com/GKhrqcJn79

In 1980 @BorisJohnson thought it would be a wheeze to visit the USSR. He posted jokes to sister, about RIGA-MORTIS in Riga & FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE.The postcard was of a statue of man who betrayed a poet to the KGB. Also in USSR in 1980, V Putin, A Lebedev & R Maxwell of the KGB pic.twitter.com/xI7jJLsBGH
