Hackers disseminated 'illicitly acquired' documents online via the social media platform Reddit. FMTNews

Voters queue outside St Andrews Church polling station in Balham, south London on Dec 12, 2019.

British foreign minister Dominic Raab said a government investigation had found that Russia tried repeatedly to meddle in last December’s election won by the Conservative Party, though the ultimate aim was not immediately published. The investigation found that when these documents made little impact, further attempts were made to promote illicitly obtained material online before the election, Raab said.

Raab made his comments hours after parliament’s intelligence and security committee said it would next week publish a long-delayed report into Russian influence in British politics.
