Russia is 3rd biggest threat to UK

Times:

Britain’s security services have identified Russia as the third most serious threat facing the country, it has emerged before Gordon Brown’s first meeting with President Medvedev.

Security officials say that only al-Qaeda terrorism and Iranian nuclear proliferation are greater menaces to the country’s safety than Russia.

The services are understood to fear that Russia’s three main intelligence agencies have flooded the country with agents, The Times understands.

There is reported to be deep irritation within the services that vital resources are having to be diverted to deal with industrial and military espionage by the Russians.

...

Not to mention the murder of people on UK soil and the non cooperation of Russia's intelligence services. Then there is the Russian's irrational reaction to missile defense aimed at preventing attacks from Iran. On top of that Russia has acted more like the mob than a business partner on supplying oil and gas to Europe.
