Russia has been accused of sending secret agents to break into and defecate in the homes of Finnish politicians.

It has emerged that at least 20 MPs have reported mysterious break-ins at their homes, with one saying he found faeces in his bathroom.

MP Ben Zyskowicz, senior MP for Finland’s ruling centre-Right National Coalition Party, believes the break-ins are part of a Russian plot to intimidate the country’s politicians.

‘It’s a way for the Russian intelligence service to show that people are being monitored, a way to create confusion or concerns,’ Mr Zyskowicz said.

Jussi Halla-aho, the speaker of the Finnish parliament, said he was launching an investigation into the ‘significant’ series of break-ins.

    It’s a way for the Russian intelligence service to show that people are being monitored

    Newsflash: When you spy on politicians, you want the kind of surveilance that people don’t notice because it’s actually about gathering information, not about controlling the general populace by means of a panopticon.

    So we can safely conclude that joining NATO has made Finns so unhinged that now they’re blaming Putin when they forget to flush their own shit.
