Everything I see and read in the media seems hell bent on convincing the general public that the Russians are our enemy and should not be trusted. I feel like I'm being manipulated, and that clown Boris certainly does not speak for me.
Good posts from all three of you SF, JB & GF.
I am of the same opinion as yourselves.
I believe the “chattering class” lefties have finally lost the plot with their “Russian Conspiracy Theory”. It seems that ever since we bruised their beloved EU by 17m angry Brits voting to leave, followed then by Hilary being beaten by the Don, they have gone absolutely over the top with their conspiracy fairytale.
Just look at the slurs aimed at Donald Trump, He’s been called names such as “Putin’s Puppet”, “an unwitting agent” and I read somewhere that the New York Times even referred to him as “A Siberian Candidate”.
Just because the saying of Politicians both here and the USA seems to be “It's highly likely” that Putin interfered in the US Elections, the liberal elite in both countries delight in taking it at face value as being the gospel truth, when it fact, their favourite saying - “it’s highly likely” - means nothing more than “I haven’t got a shred of evidence, but I feel it in my water”.
These people really believe that Putin made Brexit happen? They don’t have a clue what happened but are happy to peddle the lie that they do. These are the same people who have always held themselves up as champions of logic yet are now ready and willing to peddle paranoia.
Until someone brings forth cast iron evidence of such, I will put it down to the ramblings of the liberal elites who still haven’t picked up the toys they threw out of their prams at the two above results.
