[Kursk]

I'd prefer it if our Foreign Secretary didn't make trite remarks about protests outside foreign embassies which will cost the British taxpayer thousands to police if realised and doubtless cause mayhem in our Capital city. A former London Mayor ought to know that.

I'd much rather he got on a plane and went to talk to his political counterpart about his concerns. That is what a statesman would do.

FGS this isn't politics by twitter; the Russians are a powerful and important nation and, dare I say it, an important ally. Diplomacy Boris, diplomacy.
