PM Burnham: Russia interfered in 2016 Brexit referendum

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham stated that after taking office he obtained information about Russian interference in the 2016 Brexit referendum. The PM's words unexpectedly reopened a debate that had remained on the margins of British politics for years. The issue of Kremlin influence on the vote result was disputed in the second half of the previous decade but faded after Britain ultimately accepted the consequences of Brexit.
