PUTIN, Salisbury, Trump, Cambridge Analytica, Face- book, Brexit, Farage, Trump, Facebook, Brexit, Corbyn, Salisbury, Putin … the merry-go-round is spinning so fast that all the “liberal” conspiracy theories are merg- ing into one. Of course, just because there are conspiracy theories does not mean that there are no conspiracies. Nor does it mean that there are no connections between different sets of conspirators. But the frenzy being whipped up by Tory ministers, Remain zealots, the Guardianista intelligentsia, the US Democratic Party establishment, EU leaders and Nato chiefs is now abandoning all rationality and perspective. While there may well be connections between Rus- sian state agencies and the callous, reckless Salisbury attack, these have yet to be established beyond reason- able doubt. In fact, Britain’s authorities have failed or refused to release almost any information about the incident, other than to confirm the facts already available from any bystander or passing pedestrian. The government’s delay before calling in the Organisa- tion for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) remains as unexplained as it is unquestioned. I stand by Corbyn, alo
