I can’t help but think the hype over the Salisbury attack and some of the talk of Government is seriously out of proportion to the importance of the event to this country and I can’t help but think it’s oartly being driven to get Brexit off the front page.

It’s at worst a political assassination. We’ve seen it before and doubtless we’ll see it again.

This sort of journalism is frustrating; it wasn’t their job to explain its source.

The problem is that we were told by the government that it was established that Russia was the source. That is why we can’t trust them to tell us the truth.

No we can’t trust them, but it doesn’t help when journalists twist the truth to promote a headline. It also doesn’t help when a PD spokesman makes it easy for a journalist to makes misleading headlines by using a poor choice if words.

This is the first time we’ve been told the truth. And it’s not front page news this time. Once again Jeremy Corbyn was right despite all of the abuse he and anyone who supported his position received. There is no smoking gun. The evidence is just circumstantial.

Quite. Though if Newres works for the security forces perhaps he is in the know. Perhaps the trail of evidence points to the Avon lady and a bad batch of Chanel No 5?😂
