The Tory story is falling apart.
Lets be honest, if the Russian government wanted the Skripals dead, they would be dead. North Korea had no problem bumping off their guy in Malaysia.
Of course it's possible another source in Russia ordered the attack, such as the mafia. But I doubt the government would make such a hash of it.
Ive just read this gem in The Guardian:
UK urged to counter 'disinformation' from Russia over novichok | UK news | The Guardian - www.theguardian.com https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/apr/04/uk-urged-to-counter-disinformation-from-russia-over-novichok
This bloke says the UK needs to counter "Russian disinformation", yet Boris Johnson only just claimed Porton Down were certain it was made in Russia the irony is fantastic.
