Update: It appears that either the British government can't keep its lies and proof-less accusations straight or something far more nefarious is at play.
Following headlines (below) that British government scientists admitted they couldn’t tell where the poison - identified by the UK as A-234, also known as Novichok, used in the Salisbury poisoning of the Skripals - came from, undermining a number of claims to come out of Westminster, The UK Foreign Office denies claiming the nerve agent used in the Salisbury poisoning of the Skripals came directly from Russia, despite admitting it sent a tweet saying exactly that, and Boris Johnson making the same claim.

The UK Foreign Office has admitted it deleted the tweet which directly stated that the nerve agent came direct from Russia.
London has directly accused the Kremlin on at least three occasions of being behind the chemical attack on former double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia.
As RT notes, bizarrely, the Foreign Office denies Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson claimed the novichock “categorically” came from Russia, despite a recorded interview clearly showing he did.

The Foreign Office has not yet deleted a tweet in which the UK's ambassador to Russia, Laurie Bristow, reiterates the accusation of Moscow being behind the poisoning.

The row between Russia and Britain is reaching boiling point as officials from the OPCW meet Russian representatives on Wednesday.
* * *
As we detailed previously, following an embarrassing admission by a UK government scientist that conjured up images of Colin Powell shaking a test tube, Russia is demanding the UK apologize for rushing to judgment and blaming Russia for the attack on former double-agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia.
During an interview with reporters in Ankara, Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for the Kremlin, said the UK has no proof Russia was behind the poisoning and that "their theory is not confirmed in any way because it can't be confirmed." Russia has persistently denied playing any role in the poisoning.
He also suggested the UK own up to the fact that it jumped to conclusions about Russia's involvement, and admit its mistake to its EU allies.
"The British Foreign Office, which accused President Putin, the Prime Minister of Great Britain need to look their EU colleagues in the eye" over what was said
The diplomatic row caused by the poisoning has since escalated into a full-blown geopolitical crisis, with 28 countries and Nato expelling Russian diplomats, while Russia has retaliated by expelling their diplomats.
#Salisbury attack: Scientists have not been able to prove that Russia made the nerve agent used in the spy poisoning. Porton Down lab's chief exec reveals the details in this interview pic.twitter.com/qFNgPlr6vS
— Sky News (@SkyNews) April 3, 2018
Gary Aitkenhead, the head scientist at the UK's Porton Down military laboratory facility, told Sky News that his team was unable to trace the origins of the military grade novichok nerve agent that the UK claims was used in the attack.
"We were able to identify it as novichok, to identify that it was military-grade nerve agent," Aitkenhead said. "We have not identified the precise source, but we have provided the scientific info to government who have then used a number of other sources to piece together the conclusions you have come to."
The chief scientist said that establishing the Novichok's origin required "other inputs," some of which are intelligence based and which only the government has access to.
Aitkenhead added: "It is our job to provide the scientific evidence of what this particular nerve agent is, we identified that it is from this particular family and that it is a military grade, but it is not our job to say where it was manufactured."
Russia has demanded that the UK hand over a sample of the nerve agent for it to analyze, while the UK demanded that Russia proffer an explanation for how the nerve agent ended up outside Russia.
But after more than a month of the mainstream media refusing to conduct more than a surface level survey of the "facts", this is perhaps the best indication yet that the UK has no evidence that the Skripal poisoning - like Brexit and Trump's election - is also Russian President Vladimir Putin's fault.

"Military-grade" means particle size manipulation (micronization) for small molecules (as opposed to biological agents, which have a unique fingerprint, ala the anthrax from the US "attacks.")
To make "military-grade" small-molecule agents all you need is a spray dryer or jet mill.
Sounds scary to the population though.

It matters not what the 'facts' or 'truth' is; it's all about controlling the narrative from the beginning. Or, at least getting your narrative out if front of others to build momentum and persuade the masses that your narrative is the correct one.

Now that the hysterical childless lesbian bitch cellulite premier thing has hoisted on her own dildo, everyone wants to erase the traces of the huge blunder she made because it must not leave any trace in future history books.
Remember tomorrow's narrative will be to show that Russia escalated everything up to the war because we are rightful and Russia is not by definition.
So exactly as was trashed the initial polish declaration of war against Germany in 1939, they want to remove this, as well as all over things that will not be in favor of their twisted theories.

In fact in UK now, slagging Islam or perverts is a crime worse than anti Israelism.

It's always enlightening to remember that the Brits managed to dump Churchill (twice) as soon as they realized he guided them to a winning position in a war.
And further to recall that one of the first things Obama did was remove Churchill's bust from the Oval Office - because Obama is "part Kenyan" (another entry in the operative truth category).

I am stunned. They removed tweets and lied. Where are the 100 or 110 affected people at the hospital that May declared? and the hospital rep denied existed? The crazy hate filled spiteful actions? surely they knew they would be found out.
Maybe thought the scientists would be bullied or did not realise that scientifically Porton guys could not actually credibly make the identification May and Boris wanted. Porton Down was given 40 million gift by that shut up and go away guy... likely science research is poorly funded. May and Boris probably have poor science education, not used to hard fact, not get it. Poor brave scientist.
I have been concerned that this was more complex. Hard to accept the identity of what the Russians were affected with unless the russians saw them and the samples taken etc with a line of custody given the extraordinary ability of the english to lie. genetic IMO.
English bloodline explains my father and siblings.psychopaths and its genetic and hard wired.

These people rely HEAVILY on short term memory loss.
I, however, was born with a birth defect that does not allow me to forget things as easily as most. I was born entirely lacking a "memory hole". Which in today's political world is an awful liability to go through life with, believe me.
