Sounds a bit more plausible than reds under the bed.
Really - didn’t you read the links about the multiple ‘accidents’ to other people who have upset Putin?

How would the gift get to contain a ‘very rare’ nerve agent that can only be manufactured by a government facility?

As the police said http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-43326734

Quote:
Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said: "This is being treated as a major incident involving attempted murder, by administration of a nerve agent.

"Having established that a nerve agent is the cause of the symptoms... I can also confirm that we believe that the two people who became unwell were targeted specifically."
Occam’s Razor - the simplest solution is the most likely...
