One thing has become even more clearer than we once thought, and that is the influence of Vladimir Putin on the Conservative Party and Brexit. We have known for a long time he was issuing social media bots and encouraging division in the UK from his St Petersburg geek farms, but the extent of his influence grows with the day.
Boris, who 'lost' his security man to escape to Italy and meet certain Russians, including Mr Lebdev, a son of a KGB agent, who now owns a newspaper and is a member of the House of Lords, the Baron for Siberia. Add the number of people, nearly all Conservative members, including one, now richer by around £60,000, who began the 'Friends of Russia group,' Farage and the Leave.co people another with a leader who has influence in Russia.
A long line of Tories have received between £5,000, normally £10,000 and way, way up, including Jeremy Hunt who has been donated three bundles of roubles worth almost £100,000. Now, for some strange reason, Boris is slow today in dealing with the local oligarchs, I wonder why?
Running around Europe, pretending the UK is 'In the lead,' when it is way behind the EU and everybody else, is more flannel for his audience, an audience that shrinks with each day. We have a government completely owned by Russia. Why can these people not be charged with treason?
Putin is not mad, but clearly very annoyed. His corrupt government, his corrupt, badly trained army, with a great deal of inferior machinery, badly maintained at that, and with thousands of untrained young conscripts also, is struggling to take control of Ukraine.
However, Vladimir will continue this drive, he will not stop. There is only one acceptable outcome, but the guerilla war that will follow any success Russia has will drain his nation more than the run on the many Banks has done already.
How will it end, will it end? Will it involve us?
To be honest I do not get the feeling WW3 is here yet. I hope I feel correctly. Many thousands will die yet, how long before the west gets fed up with it all and forgets and looks away again? We already look away from Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, constant African wars, the Korean problem and all the other small conflicts around the world, badly dressed celebs are more important for some. Soon Ukraine will go this way also.

I saw this little movie on Twitter which made it clear, for the first time, how sitting back and letting Britain launder russian money is such an evil dreadful thing to do. I was probably showing my ignorance before but I just didn't realise till it was spelled out here that the British government and Johnson himself, have been helping Putin to become strong enough to do exactly what he wants - such as invade Ukraine. So Britain really can be blamed for some of what is happening now in Russia. Or, rather, not "Britain" but the wicked British MPs and also the whole Conservative party, for taking all those millions of pounds in bribes, I mean "donations".... https://twitter.com/ByDonkeys/status/1499766468610863106
Jenny, 'Led by Donkeys' do some excellent billposters. 'Private Eye' has been writing about such money for years.
