After the United Snakes of America, the sorely pathetic pommies are going nuts. One now has to wonder what the blokes at GCHQ / MI5/6 are doing... These buggers are really jokers...
Since these are bogus claims, they would never propound any proof as asked by the Russians. Russia would be better to ignore these bozos and nutters...
British newspapers and tabloids need to raise their subscriptions badly amid dwindling sales... :-)
Or maybe, this is the reaction after being beaten in Aleppo by the Russians...

Russia launched ‘cyberwar & propaganda campaign’ against UK – media
RT : 17 Dec, 2016
The UK is facing a cyberwarfare and a propaganda campaign from
Russia, British newspaper The Times is claiming. The Russian embassy in
the UK has demanded “proof” as critics label the allegations “psycho
propaganda” and say the accusations are “a new low.”
Moscow is resorting to a campaign of “propaganda and unconventional warfare,” The Times reported, citing unnamed officials in Whitehall. “Moscow
is behind a concerted drive to undermine the UK through espionage,
misinformation, cyberattacks and fake news, senior Whitehall figures
believe," the newspaper writes.
According to the outlet, citing a source with a knowledge of the matter, the UK will now “assess and formulate options”
on how to deal with the alleged threat. To address the issue, British
Prime Minister Theresa May is also set to chair a national security
meeting in the coming weeks.
“We will be happy to finally see some proof,” the Russian embassy said, responding via its official Twitter account.
An example of the suspected Russian “hybrid” warfare – as cited by The Times – is what UK’s intelligence services call “propaganda” by RT and Sputnik news agency to “influence” a British audience. Labour MP Ben Bradshaw recently said that Moscow "probably”
influenced the UK referendum on leaving the EU (known as Brexit). Yet
the allegations on alleged Russian hacking did not sit well with the
vocal advocate of Brexit and a former UKIP leader, Nigel Farage.
“Ever
since June 23 when we voted for Brexit, there have been all sorts of
excuses that have been rolled out. But to now blame it on Russian
cyber-hacking, I think they have reached a new low,” he recently said.
In a bid to be prepared for potential Russian propaganda warfare, the
UK even went as far as to stage drills covering a scenario where Moscow
would spread “false information” in the Baltic states, harming British
troops there, according to another Times report.
However,
the result of the drill was rather upsetting for the UK Ministry of
Defense, as it acknowledged that lengthy bureaucratic procedures would
prevent effective counteraction, the media revealed.
‘Ridiculous’ accusations
As
Britain is joining the ranks of those claiming Russia is meddling in
the internal affairs of Western states, the US has already made its
point clear. Earlier this year, Washington officially accused Moscow of
hacking servers and private computers of the Democratic Party, which
Kremlin denied as “nonsense” and “myth making."
As
no evidence was ever presented to the public, whistleblowing website
WikiLeaks suggested on Friday that the US should publish the proof on
its platform to verify the serious accusations.
And on December 9, the Washington Post cited unnamed
CIA officials as claiming that Russia not only directed the hacking,
but did it with the goal to secure Donald Trump’s election.
But in an interview to Fox News, President-elect Trump blasted the information as “ridiculous” and yet “another excuse.” The US President-elect stressed that the accusations on Russia prove the Democrats were simply “embarrassed” since they “suffered one of the greatest defeats in the history of politics in this country.”
Speaking to RT, former US presidential candidate Dr. Ron Paul said that Americans “should be worried about the influence of our CIA in other people's elections, I mean probably hundreds. It's constant.”
Talk Radio host and columnist John Gaunt called the British allegations on Russia’s cyberwarfare “psycho propaganda,” saying the EU is simply “unhappy” with the Brexit and Americans electing Donald Trump.
“So, they started off with these ridiculous stories that Vladimir Putin and the Russians tried to stir the American election,” Gaunt told RT.
“Next they are telling us that the Russians are going to come and eat our babies. It’s completely and utterly ridiculous.” Gaunt went on to say that the British public and those who he spoke to simply “see straight through this” since the allegations are “pure propaganda.”
“The
European Union needs a new enemy. They’ve decided that new enemy is
Vladimir Putin and so they are poking him with their biggest stick,” Gaunt said. Yet instead of portraying the Russian president as a “James Bond villain,” the West and UK should talk to Russia, since the British population does not believe the accusations, he added.

# Nothing but lies, dirty propaganda war, hystericaI aggression AGAINST Russia, by the US establishment and their pathetic minions from London.
# Looks like the same person is writing the script both for the US and UK media.
# This is called projecting in psychology.
However you call it, it is also condescending for the audience, as though we have no brain to filter data and news. They must do it for us. Put shortly, it is not only about media/propaganda war with Russia, it is about controlling us, the audience. Democracy is becoming less and less democratic in USA, UK, and EU.
# Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
# This is bullying, and more bullying...
# Who claimed that the Presidential Election were manipulated? Who collected money to recount the votes in some states? What has been the outcome? The Republicans had won votes in addition... Therefore: The claim has not been true. As nearly everyone had known right from the beginning. Now another way is tried, another lie, another claim but the same result in the end. Do these people really believe the voters would not realize which game they are playing..?
# They can ask Tony B.Liar for fake news. He is the expert.
# Now I can say they are losing the battle. The establishment in UK and US are truly losing the battle. Here again they cannot make any mea-culpa to find their own limitation and improve themselves. Instead they are blaming Russia. This is becoming extremely pathetic. I remember what Lavrov said one day: They no longer have capable people to lead them to victory. Lavrov the most accomplished diplomate in modern time was right. Absolutely pathetic for UK and US to fail that low.
# Did Russia bring down both EU and USA? CIA should take some lessons from Putin!
# Indeed, perhaps they are simply scared they will lose the next election to Corbyn.
# These allegations are hysterical... under ALL definitions of the word.... lol
# Death to Western hegemony and its sorcery, i'm sick of looking for reasons to defend it.
# Just Endless provocations from these people. Why dont they spend more time on their human rights violations and take care of all the refugees they created.
# Britain is home to millions of spies. They're crooked and cold-blooded. This is the sheer truth. Look back on the history and what they did to India, Afghanistan, Iraq, Ireland, Iran, Syria, etc.
# On the other hand, spying Merkel and Holland is okay ... !
# If Moscow is so influencial to affect British and US election, then who is super power and who is the regional power? The fact is US and UK people are hungry about raw pure news. Whereas the media in those countries have become appendage of the government, rather than being critic of the government. That is why RT is so popular all over the world !
# Dont be fooled this doesnt affect anyone, they will never go to war but the propaganda will enable more arms sales. Search for SOFEX on youtube, its pretty astounding to see weapons from america being sold right next to china etc.
# why doesn't the West cut out the act and just start the war already rather than threatening to start one? We have heard endless justifications for going to war with Russia but have yet to see them make good on their crazy plans.
