Opponent parliamentarians from the Conservative party ridiculed a labour MP and found his remarks “worthy of the propaganda newspaper”. Another member noted that such attacks in Russia remind one of the darkest days of the cold war.
In response to critics, Bradshaw said that if the “leading powers are not aware of the scale of Russian interference in its internal Affairs”, the whole world will soon witness the collapse of the current international order.
To the demands of the opponents to provide evidence of “hacking Brexit” Bradshaw said no.
