Re: Meh - CA is an advertising agency
What would be the real disaster is if the manipulators create such a climate of distrust that international co-operation stops.
I am pretty sure we are no longer at the stage of "would". We are at the stage were it IS the case.
For example - what was Boris and May fucking problem to give the Russians a sample from Salisbury. We can still drive the same line if we wish, but we are not perceived as someone who has insufficient evidence or is trying to conceal or doctor evidence to fit a specific agenda.
In fact, giving it to the Russians put them into a lose-lose situation: An answer of "no, it is not ours, our signature is different" would have been an immediate: "What signature, you claimed you destroyed all of it". The biggest mistake they made was asking for it.
As I have said before - there is no bigger and scarier weapon than the truth. People should learn to use it. Yeah, I know, it is a difficult thing for pathological liars like Boris or GoveNoccio.
