In which case that would make lots of property available!!<br /><br />And you think there would be no furore over this?<br /><br />This latest attack on Russian Oligarchs is part of a wider campaign of Russophobia, that's the real story here.<br /><br />Russian Oligarchs are not the enemy, all of the billionaires and their lackeys are the enemy be they Russian, American, Mexican, Iranian, Jewish, Muslim or Atheist.<br /><br />Any socialist worth their salt would decry any talk of singling out Russian Oligarchs, especially in this atmosphere of paranoia, ultra nationalism and state propaganda.<br /><br /><br />I mean we should be talking about how Theresa May, the entire political class bar one and the entire mainstream media have pre judged the poisoning case to the point where those investigating will be compelled to deliver one verdict! I mean can you imagine any investigation saying, oops we got it wrong sorry Russia! We should be pointing out the plainly obvious questions the laughably called free press refuse to ask, instead of indulging in this Russophobic garbage.<br /><br />We should also be pointing out that these arch patriots are the same people who provide apology and cover for tax dodgers of every stripe, tax dodgers who want to bulk up their own property at the expense of everyone else. Some fucking patriots these scoundrels are!<br /><br />We should not in any way give a single atom of credence to this insane Russophobia, winch had reached levels of incredulity long before this poisoning nonsense hit the headlines.<br /><br />Talk of Russian oligarch party donations is Russophobic opportunism.<br /><br />Yes lets generalise the issue, but lets give no atom of space for Russophobic political opportunism.Herbie Destroys the Environmentnoreply@blogger.com
