For a brief moment in time the west did not know who to point weapons of mass destruction towards. For the armament industries that was bad news. With the recreation of the Cold War the order of things had been restored and everybody is happy. Dr David Kelly, Robin Cook, Twin Towers, Princess Diana, Jill Dando - I have no idea if any of these were horrible home grown happenings but I do know the latest from Salisbury has to handled very carefully (not a pun of the potency of the weapon).

And why? Because we're British and that's the normal default idiot reaction from people like Amber Rudd. <br /><br />But to achieve what exactly? <br /><br />Answer: nothing that we don't already know - namely that the Russians dunnit!!<br /><br />So no, we do not need 'evidence'. Johnson is right. The Russians are guilty - so kick 'em out - and to hell with the consequences.<br /><br />Blind stoathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08213002894261695567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6112651969466158066.post-51417046423126898292018-03-15T04:32:08.559-07:002018-03-15T04:32:08.559-07:00Actually we first showed that we are weak 14th Feb...Actually we first showed that we are weak 14th Feb 1989 and the Salman Rushdie affair.L fairfaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12274756119129254373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6112651969466158066.post-35838947115483984102018-03-15T02:34:01.928-07:002018-03-15T02:34:01.928-07:00Do we actually have any real EVIDENCE that the Rus...Do we actually have any real EVIDENCE that the Russians are responsible.
