The next reference is to Putin. The former head of MI6 is essentially saying Putin fought for Brexit in order to weaken us. As his Ambassador to London said: “Britain is now down on its knees. It will not rise again for a very long time”
🚨Former Head of MI6: “I think Brexit has marginalised us. It was kind of intended to do exactly that.” https://t.co/liyOkbjpn4

This might well have been an honest mistake, the fact nobody believes it shows how compromised she is. FWIW I think the interview has already been recorded and she’s been caught red handed. Either she shouldn’t survive this #Kuenssberg
While prepping to interview Boris Johnson tomorrow, by mistake I sent our briefing notes to him in a message meant for my team. That obviously means it’s not right for the interview to go ahead. It’s very frustrating, and there’s no point pretending it’s anything other than

The threshold for even remotely safe bathing water is anything less than 500 cfu/100ml. On the River Panbourne, a chalk stream, one test showed levels of 100,000 cfu/100ml.
The sewage outflow! A recent test of Panbourne’s 100,000 Ecoli cfu/100ml Each one is legally polluting of our waterways… All are spewing out a cocktail of pathogens, pharmaceuticals, forever chems, because the permits say the water companies DO NOT need to remove them.
