The government's conclusion was as a result of intelligence from the intelligence agencies, along with the identification of the nerve agent by the experts. It's has always been very clearly stated that based on all the information put together, there's no other plausible explanation other than it coming from Russia. Why this is being presented as though Porton Down was expected to establish a culprit is beyond me.
Because everyone's favourite political fuckwit BoJo said they had done just that. Perhaps if the government knew their arse from their elbow we wouldn't end up in situations like this.
