Counter-terrorism police have joined the investigation into what happened to two people in Wiltshire who are in a critical condition, amid fears that they may have been exposed to a nerve agent.
Dawn Sturgess and Charlie Rowley, who were at a property in Amesbury, were initially believed to have overdosed on drugs, but their symptoms raised alarm among medics and Wiltshire police, which led them to suspect a possible nerve agent.
The couple, both in their 40s, were in a critical condition at Salisbury district hospital, Wiltshire police said on Wednesday.
Tests were being carried out on a substance at the nearby Porton Down government defence laboratory. Whitehall sources said that it was too early to tell whether the incident was related to illegal drugs or “something more sinister”.
Sam Hobson, 29, a friend of the couple, said he believed they had been struck down by a nerve agent.
No doubt British Gov will whip their citizens into a frenzy over this.

Oh look Americans coming to the support of Putins Russia again and slamming the British, nothing new to see here.
This is a breaking story, and nobody has linked this to Putins spies, the Police are just taking precautions as it's near to Salisbury where a chemical attack on 2 individuals with Novichok happened!! It looks like you're already in a frenzy, can you please show me where this links to Porton Down causing it?!?!

Their activities in Ukraine and Crimea are widely viewed as hostile. Did they use diplomacy there or was it boots on the ground in no-flag uniforms? Wasn't there a passenger jet that was hit by a Russian BUK missile from Russian controlled territory?
There's definitely a propaganda war at work, but it's irrational to keep painting the West as villains and Russia as an innocent victim.

The Ministry of Defence turned large parts of the country into a giant laboratory to conduct a series of secret germ warfare tests on the public.
A government report just released provides for the first time a comprehensive official history of Britain's biological weapons trials between 1940 and 1979.
Many of these tests involved releasing potentially dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms over vast swaths of the population without the public being told.

“Blame Russia” but never give evidence, seems to be the going rate for a populace swayed by propaganda.
