Brexit: From Russia with Leave

September 11, 2020 by Swindon for Europe

Swindon for Europe’s street team have been hitting Wood Street again (in Old Town, Swindon), campaigning to raise awareness on the government’s lack of action around the report on Russian interference in the EU referendum, more generally in British politics.
