FNN can exclusively reveal that the person UK PM Burnham was exchanging messages with was not White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles but someone impersonating Ena Sharples.
The PM became suspicious when he received messages complaining about:
- the price of a pint (of milk stout) at the Rovers Return
- that slag Elsie Tanner
- crappy Chinese made hairnets
Number 10 North said:
“We do not comment on national security matters.” One person briefed on the communications said a “few messages” were exchanged after the PM entered No. 10 but insisted they were “of no significance.”
MI6 has suggested the Russians were behind it as Kruschev was rumoured to be a big fan of Coronation Street in his later years and put out a statement saying: We will not accept Russian interference with our great British cultural heritage.
