Alice Weidel is saying that Zelenskyy “is not interested in peace,” and that in order to have peace in Ukraine, “we need to take Russia’s security interests into account.” She is a straight-out Russian asset. Note how Alice recoils and refuses to acknowledge that Russia rejects making peace

Update - after being recommended it on here I am currently reading Ruth’s book ‘strongmen’. As much as it’s a very necessary read, it is TRULY depressing how many parallels there are between many current politicians’ approach to getting power and dictators of the past like Mussolini and Hitler.

No wonder Badenoch and Farage are shitting bricks at the suggestion that Russia interfered in the Brexit referendum. Their whole business model relies on Brexit and the racist anti- immigration bomb that it detonated. Their next bright idea - to leave the ECHR - would delight Putin too.

ECHR withdrawal 'gift to Putin'
By Jonathan Rayner | 22 March 2012

Britain’s withdrawal from the European Convention on Human Rights in favour of a British bill of rights would be Vladimir Putin's
'best present ever', an East European delegate at a Council of Europe event for lawyers told the Gazette last weekend.

The source, who asked not be named, said that Putin, just re-elected as president of Russia, has always said that the Strasbourg court's policing of human rights was ‘meaningless'.
Another unnamed source, a former north European government lawyer, described the UK government's attitude to the Strasbourg court as 'Britain shooting itself in the foot. If the British don't engage with Europe, they'll lose influence and shouldn't be surprised if
Germany and France fill the vacuum?
