A simple question: how many people of Russian extraction/heritage are likely to live in Salisbury?

That's not going to look good on the restaurant's Tripadvisor reviews...
Put me down for a Large, preferably in the blue please.I've started printing the t-shirts:
I came all the way to Salisbury
And all I got was this lousy perfume...cough...thud.
No, if we consider the official version, it doesn't make sense. Even the idea that in a covert murder operation by a secret service, a message may be sent alongside a murder attempt (which indeed, sometimes happens), does not appear to explain the situation. When a message is sent, it is not to the public, but to people in the need to be warned. Moreover, the authors couldn't not know that given the international context, it would result in a serious deterioration of relations of the USA and European countries with Russia. For Russian operatives, punishing a mere defector was not worth the price, in addition to going against all established rules (even if as it has been claimed, Skripal had allegedly violated the terms of the agreement, by cooperating again with the British services). Which means that those who were behind the attack tried to deteriorate the said relations. And rules out Putin, as such a worsening was the last thing he needed at the time (and definitely goes against the character he has exibited since he came to power).A public message that says, "look everyone, we're totally inept and incompetent!"
Not buying it. These people move in circles. If a message was meant to get to Skripal...and anyone like him it would be done without us knowing. It would be easy.

Which leaves, if we rule out the unlikely posibility of a private act, only two possibilities : the British Deep State, which makes sense, as they have been pushing against Russia for years, and were at the time preparing a strike on Syria, with the help of another false flag chemical attack, and would account for multiple inconsistencies. Or a Russian extremist faction, of the opinion that Putin is too soft and intent on driving him to respond militarily to Western anti-Russian campaigns. Indeed, a look at commentaries in the Russian press shows that many are of the opinion that a military answer is the best way to treat the Western threat. But as the British government would likely know, or suspect that the Russian government as such is not behind the attack, but would try to benefit from the situation by issuing false accusations, we would be back to the previous option.
