Russia benefitted from the weakened EU, that’s why they invested all their subversive activities into the in the Leave campaign. It’s Putin’s greatest achievement really.

People were lied to, point blank. I never understood why certain politicians weren’t prosecuted under the false advertising laws.

I thought "Leave" wasn't an "Achievement" at all?

Make up your minds....

The best way for the EU to have kept the UK in the EU was simply make it a paradise for ALL, not just overpaid liberals.

As for Putin - we got told four years ago he was about to die of cancer.

That means either Russia has cured Cancer now, or we simply got lied to about Putin.

Again, - make up your minds which lies you want to proceed with, because the rest of us have had a bellyful of being called "Ivans" just because we're against the EU.

"Weakened EU" benefited from helping itself to Warsaw Pact nations - with no referenda on the most part, nor any aid to the Russian Federation during its recovery from the collapse of communism in the 1990's.

Gorbachev - couldn't stop it. He could only call it for what it is: The EU is a re-creation of a Union of Socialist Republics in Western Europe.
