If they had been exposed to a 'military grade' nerve agent then they would be dead, as Putin said. Apparently the 2 guinea pigs at the house died from lack of water and the cat put down as it was stressed, hardly 'novichok'. Next up will be discoveries of secret nerve agent laboratories in Russia known only to the Times, Daily Mail etc. exclusively and unable to give their sources. In a poll I saw today 69% of UK people thought the government were making outrageous unsubstantiated claims.

The penalties for governments and their agencies who lie to the public as in WMD, are simply that we cannot just take their word for things anymore.

In US polls, 42 percent of people think there was a cover up over 911.....Polls are not connected to truth, they are opinions.

LBC are reporting that if exposure is through skin contact the effects are not as immediate as inhalation and that is why the treatment appears to be working.

Innocent until proven 100% guilty. That's UK law and justice isn't it? So why isn't it aplied when a foreign entity is involved? Still, it's being used to take the focus away from a disasterous brexit 'negotiation' that's gone played virtually all the way into EU hands. Criminal law, the criteria is 'beyond reasonable doubt' Civil law, the criteria can be 'on the balance of probability' So who has the motive ? Russia has form for poisoning defectors. In the current social climate in the UK, you'd think an 'intelligence-backed' assassination/murder, would take the form of a stabbing in the street and stealing of personal items.

Does anyone really think it wasn't the Kremlin, other than those who want Corbyn to be right?

The whole thing is just too convenient for May, to cover up her disastrous handling of pretty much everything. Yes, Prime Mnister was wise to this tactic 30 years ago,

There is danger in believing that everything that ever happens is a false flag operation but there is as much danger in believing that nothing is ever a false flag operation. It's a bit like the Moon landings. There are so many good reasons why America could have faked them but does anyone really believe it could have happened? Compelling evidence doesn't make it so either way. We are left with a lot of people murmuring conjecture.

And that’s where we are now.

We know that governments lie but we never know about exactly what. Those that control information can have us wondering indefinitely. If they can slip the assassination of a President past us then what hope do we have with regard to a couple of poisonings?

We can maintain a healthy cynicism over what we’re told, believe the opposite and still be in with a chance of having called it right.
