Russia's ambassador to the UK, Yakovenko, boasted about Brexit to another diplomat:
“We have crushed the British to the ground. They are on their knees and will not rise for a very long time”
Today, Farage’s close ally, leader of Reform in Wales, was sentenced to 10yrs for taking bribes from Russia.

Brexit has caused almost twice as much damage to the UK economy than estimated by official forecasts, according to new paper from a group of experts including a senior Bank of England economist

„It is a time for honesty. Peace talks are having zero effect on Putin. His goal is to dominate Ukraine & he won’t stop until he realizes he cannot win. US & Allies must arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction Russia to the max, & confiscate the $300B in overseas Russian assets.“

Remember, Ukraine gave up all its nuclear weapons based on security guarantees from Russia, USA and other countries - few that have lived up to those guarantees.

I guess someone has to say it: socialism is not good, egalitarian social policy. It's not Medicare, Medicaid, Soc Sec, or fireman. Those are good social policies.
Socialism is state ownership of all businesses and land.
If you think that's a workable model, you're not paying attention.
