Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov claimed on Saturday that the toxin used to poison former double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia, was BZ toxin, as confirmed by a Swiss laboratory.

You'd have thought, no matter what, that the media would be spending a fortune on contacting the Lab concerned for confirmation or denial . . with denial being their choice result so they could point fingers and shout 'liars' even louder

It has gone rather quiet since the two victims made (are making) amazing recoveries, and I tend to doubt the old adage that 'no news is good news'
