    So MI5 can get parties to drop candidates just by saying they "could" be a spy, without proof, or conviction?

    Literally anyone "could" be a spy.

    Doesn't that mean the spooks can basically veto any candidate they don't like?

    Nicotine on it's own isn't particularly addictive. It only becomes highly addictive when combined with the MAO inhibitors found in tobacco, primarily harman and norharman.

    more likely to fail to compare a photo ID to the person presenting that document if the person is of a different ethnicity

    Wait, are they saying if someone is a different ethnicity they are more likely to not check if the ID matches?

    Federasts "protesting" at the proms, I can't think of a more petite bourgeois thing.

    They're awfully vague about where he was found? Possibly he was found far away from enemy lines, executed by his azov "comrades"?
