And lastly, there is a little snob in all of us. How often it surfaces depends entirely on who you are talking to at the time. Don Smithyman

Oliver Salisbury, England. Every report has the UK government outraged and indignant that such an incident could have taken place on British soil.

While having sympathy for those in hospital, the target was no Ordinary Joe, but a double agent who had been convicted and jailed in Moscow for disclosing names of other spies to British authorities.

A spy-swap landed him as a free man in the UK after a portion of his sentence was served, but he must have lived every day knowing that those he betrayed would seek revenge.

Ian Fleming served in naval intelligence during WWII, and later created the James Bond character, based on his own experiences and imagination; it became one of the most profitable movie franchises ever.

The present outrage and indignation from the UK government seems quite bizarre; they appear aghast and gobsmacked, but we’ve all watched James Bond movies, and what transpired in Salisbury is surely life imitating art.
