As reported by TASS with reference to the newspaper The Daily Telegraph, British MPs do not have evidence about the intervention of the Russian Federation in a referendum in 2016.

Note that today, July 21, in Britain it is planned the publication of a report prepared by the parliamentary Committee on the activities of intelligence and security. It is expected that it will contain a recommendation by the British authorities to toughen the control over financial resources coming from Russia and criticism of recent British governments for their softness toward Moscow.

in Addition, according to The Daily Telegraph, in this 50-page document suggests Moscow allegedly tried to influence the outcome of a referendum in 2014 on Scottish independence. Such actions of Russia are called “the first post-Soviet interference in Western democratic elections.” Recall that the plebiscite ended with the victory of supporters of continued membership of Scotland in the UK. This view was supported by 55% of the referendum participants.
