Absolutely spot on zambo.

Its called distraction. It got May out of the house to stand around looking concerned and weirdly bigging up salisbury, didnt it?

We haven't got the political leaders either,VV

The Royal Family are showing more of a backbone with their boycotting the World Cup. No one would notice in any case but still.

Former UK ambassador Craig Murray writes:

"I have now received confirmation from a well placed FCO (UK government Foreign Office) source that the UK's Porton Down scientists are not able to identify the nerve agent as being of Russian manufacture."

Writing in The Sunday Times, about the poisoning of Sergei Skripal, Andrew Gilligan and Tony Allen-Mills write:

"Why deploy the one weapon that would instantly identify the Kremlin as the number one suspect in the case?"

Gilligan and Allen-Mills remind us that the UK government has refused to investigate the laundering, in the UK, of certain stolen Russian money.


It was Andrew Gilligan who was sacked by the BBC, and threatened with death, after he suggested that a UK government document on Iraq had been 'sexed up'.

"Why has the British Government refused to show the evidence to the Russians when asked? ...

David J Crawford writes:

"I read that the centre that was trying to manufacture the new class of chemical weapons was in Uzbekistan not Russia and that following the collapse of the USSR the facility was dismantled under the watchful eye of the United States.

"The other imponderable is how our experts at Porton Down, our own chemical weapons facility, can be so certain of the provenance of the incriminated toxic substance without verifiable samples to compare it with."

William Burns writes:

"I cannot get to grips with the idea that Russian secret services would try to bump off the former spy Sergei Skripal with a poisoning agent knowing it would be like leaving a calling card, implicating them directly, when they could have done it in numerously more efficient ways...

"Could this be but another distraction to build up support in the propaganda battle against Russia for supporting President Assad and the Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party in Syria?

"It seems more likely to me that British agents were behind the attack in an attempted publicity murder of Vladimir Putin."

Despite everything I think there’s a good chance Putin will win this. What odds can I get?



Seriously though, what a joke. Why even bother having the election?

Same as here - it gives the hoi polloi the illusion that they make any difference at all.
Anyone (such as Tick) that uses 'gammon' as a racial pejorative is as much a racist as those who use the word nigger and similar pejoratively.

Are Russian elections like African ones? Where is Endo? We need him now more than ever. "Vote Early, Vote often". I love old Vlad ... he's like a James Bond villian. Say what you want about Mr. Vladimirov, he's a working-class bloke made good. Ok, so the two Chechen wars weren't exactly a highlight in his career, and this whole nerve-agent thing is a bit dodgy. But come on ... he seems like a laugh. :)

Can't disagree with any of Hillman's points.

No competition anyway. If there was, he'd eliminate it.

A wonderful leader, who joined Syria to fight ISIS. What a hero.

Putin. Berlusconi. Trump. Possibly Boris. hahaha. What a fucking world we live in. I hate to say it, but I think we've fucked-ourselves somewhere.
