Russia trolls David Cameron over Jeremy Corbyn 'security threat' message
David Cameron must be used to being mercilessly trolled on line by now - but it's not every day he gets sent snarky messages on behalf of Vladimir Putin.
Among the countless Tweets mocking Cameron's over-the-top warning about Labour being a 'security threat' was one from the Russian Embassy.
They said: "Just imagine UK media headlines if Russian President called a leading opposition party threat to national security?"
And not satisfied with such world class trolling, the Russian ambassador to the UK followed the tweet up with a full throated endorsement for Jeremy Corbyn.
Alexander Yakovenko wrote: "Congratulations to Jeremy Corbyn. Hope for positive change in terms of debate, including on our relations."
Mr Corbyn has previously hinted he'd like to see Britain pursue more cordial diplomatic relations with Russia.
Here's why David Cameron called Jeremy Corbyn a threat to national security
He's on record saying the crisis in Ukraine was caused by the west and Nato.
Last year he wrote: "Russia has gone way beyond its legal powers to use bases in the Crimea. Sending unidentified forces into another country is clearly a violation of that country’s sovereignty [...] Still, the hypocrisy of the west remains unbelievable.
"Nato has sought to expand since the end of the cold war. It has increased its military capability and expenditure. It operates way beyond its original 1948 area and its attempt to encircle Russia is one of the big threats of our time."
