The name’s Branson...

RICHARD Branson has been called many things – but a spy? The claim came after a failed plot to topple Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro last week. Maduro tried to link Branson, left, to the plot’s alleged leader, Jordan Goudreau, who was head of security at a concert organised by the Virgin tycoon. Maduro said: ‘Branson has worked for the US and UK intelligence agencies for years.’ A spokesman for Branson called the claims ‘baseless’.
