what a strong argument.
Stronger than any argument put forward by those who believe Russia is being framed for a crime it didn't commit. Although to be honest, that's not saying much
what a strong argument.
As of right now, Russia is the one huge, influential country and powerful military that the world powers do not have control of or a stake in. It seems to me that Russia, not wanting to join the EU and other world government bodies, is being pressured, scape goated, and isolated by the world powers in an effort to force Putin and the Russian people to give up some of their sovereignty and independence. This is also why Trump has been so attacked. He's pulling America out of these international bodies, organizations, and entanglements. He's signaled that it's "America First" and is reclaiming our sovereignty. He's doing it at our border, on trade, and in regards to how we deal with the EU. So what do the world powers immediately do? Link him with Putin and attempt to isolate both of them all in an effort to bring Russia and the US to heel. They want to take control of our countries.

Ironic post is ironic.Has Teresa May even addressed the child grooming scandal, or is this simply to divert from that?
Pretty weak response.
Unless it's some sort of false flag, there's no reason to believe that Russia is NOT the culprit for these murders. I think these guys are British citizens.
Expelling some Russians is a very weak response. What Russia did was an act of war.
Or.... or hear me out .lets start a war because a Russian spy was killed by Russia...
Or.... or hear me out .
Just maybe theres loads of alternatives somewhere inbetween bending over and taking it or an all out war/nuke exchange?

She has to be seen to do somwthing or all her pretentions of being remeberer as the new thatcher are donekilling a douple agent in Moscow lol
either way Teresa May is fucked, she should have just done a cover up and take it like a big girl.

Well, to be honest, her options were strictly limited to begin with. In a perfect world, Britain's response would something like this

In the real world, the British PM cannot even force the England team to boycott the World Cup Most of the sanctions that would do serious damage to Russia can only be invoked by the EU. Good luck getting EU nations to step up and back Britain in a fight with the world's most aggressive superpower. Not least because so many European nations are dependent on Russian gas.
The other factor May has to consider is that while the Russians are thugs and bullies, they are not cowards. The last people to make the mistake of thinking Russia would tap to strikes were the Nazis, and we all know how that ended. If Russia hits you and you return fire, they will keep hitting you back until you catch them in a Triangle Choke and force them to Tap or Nap. Russians pride themselves on their ability to soak up punishment, and return it with interest. May has to balance retaliation with the risk of things escalating out of control.

I must have missed the news articles about America murdering political enemies in the UK with Polonium, or deploying Nerve Agents more toxic than VX gas in English towns.
Come on, man. You're better than this.
