That was the sentiment of the former chair of the intelligence committee under whose leadership the inquiry took place from November 2017 to November 2019.
Opposition lawmakers have sharply criticized the government as well, with a senior Labour Party member Nick Thomas-Symonds saying that the government has “consistently underestimated the Russian threat over the past six years.”Heaccused the government of “a chronic, systemic failure where the government has had no single responsible minister or responsible department for defending our democracy.”
In addition to highlighting an “immediate and urgent threat” from Russia’s “malicious cyber activity,” the report also lays out how wealthy Russians, some with close ties to Putin, peddled influence and integrated themselves into Britain’s business and social scene.found evidence of Russian attempts to interfere in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. That report failed to find evidence that President Donald Trump’s campaign"coordinated or conspired" with the Russian government.
Brokenshire said on Wednesday that the government had committed to bringing new legislation to counter hostile state activity and espionage, modernizing current laws that aren’t equipped to deal with current threats.
Did Russian threats start with Boris Johnson?
He'll, even POTUS is afraid of Putin
Sounds like the USA fits right in.
People tend to forget that Putin may be the most wealthy person alive (because of all the money he has stolen from Russian citizens). I'm sure he has paid dark-money bribes to MANY officials from both the UK and US governments.
Like realDonaldTrump, it looks like BorisJohnson & his Government invited the Russians to help with his agenda! They also have a lot of Lawmakers that are on the Russian payroll🙄
Just like America
Americans should also be doing that as well as Putin's plan on backing Brexit is to destabilise NATO forces and divide the west
Notice how NBC instantly both-sidesed this by making it 'critics' lash out at U.K. government?
Sounds familiar
Talk tough, carry a small stick. What is it with these so called 'strong conservatives'? Who knew that 'greed' was creed of the movement?
I guess I'm not sure why we should be shocked that the people who took power due to the interference are investigating the interference.....
People been saying Russia this Russian that but for last 30 or 40 years only America and the UK distroyed so many countries, sent their army and soldiers everywhere and bombed at lest 20 countries And killing there own soldiers for politics and office!!
This is how Russia fights embargoes. Its disgusting that its worked. Nigel Farage is a Traitor being backed by Aaron Banks and Russian Money. Brexiteers are as bad as Moles, Devaluing their own country. Scumbags that won't admit they were wrong.
