I knew about the sale of the Brompton Rd station to Firtash & the curious deferment of payment of £33 mill of purchase price by MoD. But I hadn’t made the connection to the timing of that & Firtash’s arrest.
2/ Can’t help but wonder to what extent US Intelligence sharing with the U.K. was limited given the connection if WHO was in Gov at the time and their interests
Eg. Whittingdale was a Gov Minister And a Director of BUS with Lord Asquith with links to Shetler-Jones

Also of interest that a Russian Bank, state owned VTB, seems to have got a freezing order on Firtash’s assets. To protect them FOR Firtash or for whom?
What happened between then and 2013?
And now?
