RUSSIA

BRITAIN’S allies were praised by Theresa May for booting out more than 100 suspected Russian spies after the nerve agent attack in Salisbury. Ex-Russian intelligence officer Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia survived the poisoning in March by “Kremlin hitmen”. The PM said NATO was the “guarantor of our freedom” and spoke of the responsibility of sending RAF crews “into harm’s way” in Syria.
