russian agent poisoned with daughter??

OK let's see how bloody tough big mouth Boris Johnson really is and also wimpy Theresa May! - [I am still a card carrying Brit!]

I am very suspicious about this, don't for one moment think it was sanctioned by anyone important in Russia. 
Boris doesn't frighten old ladies let alone Putin.

and your 'evidence' is??

There is something very devious about this.  Why would the Russians bother? It could just as easily be the Americans. Propoganda is the name of the game.

Porton Down is about 5 miles from Salisbury, coincidence of course!

malicious rumouring perhaps??

If you wanted to assassinate somebody why would you do it with a rare method that you were known to possess? Why not just run them over?

Agreed or a drive by shooting which would be much easier and just as difficult for the police to investigate.

because the russian politburo aren't very bright - this is their traditionally preferred method and so they always use it - they also like stealing back former russian territories and shooting down passenger planes!

The Politburo no longer exists.

but replaced by ex-KGB trained moron?

Putin may not be likeable but he is no moron! Unlike the other side.

not only moronic but psycopathic; narcissistic; chauvinistic and suffers from the 'little man syndrome'!

Yes he's not a good opponent for Putin. :-)

and so the investigations carry on - and the accusations and the staff dismissals - this is taking us back 25 yrs or more - believe me the russians will very rarely back down if ever!
