The attack on Ukraine may have shaken things up, but before that, the Tories seemed quite close with Russia and, forgive this non-Brit for making assumptions, to me it looks like the entire Brexit thing was started and then heavily pushed by Russia as part of a larger plan to splinter the EU and cause infighting (from a quick web search: Wikipedia, Washington Post, Foreign Policy, Guardian).

Russian interference is not the same as Russian sympathies. Russia have been meddling in European and American affairs for decades that's got nothing to do with being sympathetic to Russia and Russia's gold and objectives. Do you have any actual evidence?

Also please address your statement that a pro-russian party is about to win in the UK because not only is that definitely not possible because the right wing party are going to lose badly but the right wing party aren't even pro russian.

No, it's just me and my assumptions here, but you can find a lot of cases showing Russian financial backing, for the Brexit campaign as well as connections between the Tories and Russia.

Sorry, you lost me there. I have no idea what party is currently predicted to win.

So you know absolutely nothing and yet you're still commenting.

That is absolutely no pro-russian political group in the UK unless you're living in some parallel universe in which case I really can't help you.
