Labour's Ben Bradshaw claims he was target of Russian cyber-attack

Frequent critic of Kremlin interference in the UK was sent suspicious email from Moscow

The Labour candidate Ben Bradshaw has said he has been the victim of a suspected Russian cyber-attack after he received an email from Moscow with attachments containing sophisticated malware.

Bradshaw - who has repeatedly raised the subject of Kremlin interference in British politics, including in the EU referendum - received the email at his election gmail address. The sender - "Andrei" - claimed he was a whistleblower from inside Vladimir Putin's presidential administration.
