Nope, this is an unprecedented success story in kicking Russia into touch whilst the Brexiters' ally Donald Trump was busy fawning over Trump and not sticking up for us. These things don't happen by luck, they happy by being at the table which we will be quitting. As The Times reported:
Quote:
Up to 20 European countries are preparing to expel Russian diplomats linked to Moscow espionage networks.
The unprecedented round of co-ordinated expulsions will begin on Monday with the recall of the European Union’s ambassador for Moscow for four weeks.
During four hours of talks on Thursday night Theresa May rallied France, Germany, Lithuania and Ireland behind a robust response designed to damage a web of clandestine Russian operations identified by British intelligence.
