Big embarrassment for Britain: lab findings spark social media uproar The revelation of Porton Down

The revelation of Porton Down’s CEO shows that someone has been lying about the Skripal case, and that someone is Boris Johnson.

The Chief of the Defense Science and Tech lab at Porton Down, the lab examining the chemical agent that the Skripals were poisoned with, came out with the news, in an interview with SkyNews, that they have no idea where the poison originated:

“We were able to identify it as Novichok, to identify that it was military-grade nerve agent.”

“We have not identified the precise source, but we have provided the scientific info to government who have then used a number of other sources to piece together the conclusions you have come to.”

Meanwhile, top UK officials seem to have already confirmed its origin, as Boris Johnson apparently did in this interview:

The fact that it appears that Boris Johnson lied here and has misled both the British people and the world about the origins of the sample that was used in the attack in Salisbury is downright malignant. The allegations that Johnson has made, and the “assessment” that Prime Minister Theresa May presented to the British Parliament are something that the UK government, and others around the world, has decided to run with, as diplomacy with the Russian government deteriorates, to further advance accusations against the Kremlin for the attack itself and to enact “reprisals” in retaliation for the attack.

Interestingly neither the Skripal nor Litvenenko families blame Russia for the poisoning/contamination of their “MI6 protected “ family members

This blogger has done an enormous collation of information and updates it daily
This 31 march report speaks to a lot of misinformation being spread by UK
But the entire series covers details including the evasive verbiage being used by different agencies aside from Boris Johnson and Theresa May

The Kivelidi assassination by mafia contract is the only publicly admitted case of novichok use- the poison killed him, his secretary, and the doctor who did his autopsy

This was a non-state operation run by a rogue scientist who stored supplies in his garage

Did Russia lose control of the program? Yes over 20 years ago
Did the US and UK gain access to the program?
Yes over 20 years ago. We have the defector who helped formulate and produce. Who wrote and published a book so dangerous official policy is to deny it.
Does this justify the ongoing action vs Russia?
A stable person just shakes head
