Extraoridinary that the US Senate covers Putin's involvement with Brexit while the British authorities do nothing.

"The senators point out that Ukip and its then-leader, Nigel Farage, did not just fan anti-EU sentiment but also “criticised European sanctions on Russia, and provided flattering assessments of Russian President Putin”.
The report adds that although officially the Russian government asserted its neutrality on Brexit, its English-language media outlets RT and Sputnik covered the referendum campaign extensively and offered ‘’systematically one-sided coverage’’.
This is all true. As is @carolecadwalla 's work on Arron Banks links with the Russian embassy. But British amnesia marks it true but irrelevant. So irrelevant if fact, the auhtorities can behave as if it never happened
