It is a MURDER...how much more hateful can you get?
The fact that the Russians are not kicking up He'll about one of their nationals being killed on our soil says (to me, anyway) that they did the dirty deed.
As for the other episode in Salisbury...how much proof is needed?
The nerve agent alleged to have been used was formulated by a Russian scientist, is only available to the military(that includes spies) and is strictly controlled by the Russian Government.
The Nuclear Clock just ticked...did you hear it?

agree margaret. to change topic slightly an egyptian girl student was killed in nottingham earlier this week and they are trying to work out if it was a Hate Crime or not. never knew a murder killing someone because they liked them.
On the news today the Russians are now saying UK may have been responsible for the nerve gas attack at Porton Down research centre is just down the road.

I think it is a desperate attempt to divert the finger pointing at them but I don't think many of the world leaders who have expressed support for us will take much notice.

The scientist who formulated this poison has stated quite clearly that this was a Russian state sponsored attack...that this military grade toxin is strictly regulated and is unavailable outside Russia.
Anyway, samples of the poison are being handed over to a Dutch laboratory for independent testing.
Maybe once this has been done it can be cleared up....what has any other country got to gain by tarring Russia...it could lead to nuclear conflict....and why would anyone want that???
It is a very dangerous game to be playing, but then so is poisoning someone here with a very potent toxin that could have affected many people.
Whoever it was that carried this out, it is a blatant act of aggression.
