In the States required congressional oversight would probably say differently. because the only way they would pull this off is if the CIA got sign off from the President for example and he would have to inform the Intelligence Committee. Otherwise it would be an illegal operation and yes, then the president could be impeached.
I'm not sure how British law works in this case, but there are rules in terms of black ops.
