Why do so many of these uber-macho, anti-woke, pro-Brexit types not like Volodymyr Zelensky all that much? Zelensky is the ballsiest leader the free world has witnessed for at least a generation. A David figure standing up against the ugly Goliath of Vladimir Putin, the latter a horrible bully who thought he could just roll his tanks into Kyiv and get his way, only to get hit square in the nose instead.
Nigel Farage, Arron Banks et all (Banks for sure, I haven't read the actual facts about Farage) were receiving funding by Russian money for destablising the west. There's a byline times article about it by Peter Jukes which I just recently read
So that explains how some of these guys are now experiencing cognitive dissonance that the guy who help fund their campaigns for his own agenda has now become the world's most recent "new Hitler"
I kind of wonder how we aren't a whole lot more angry about the way Johnson and the Brexit campaign have rolled over and done whatever Putin wanted for so long, and how Brexit has been a cover for ignoring serious security worries for years now. Really, we ought to be waking up to this stuff!
Given how brexiters shouted "SOVERINTEE" and "FWEEDOM", if you arrived in the UK from another country from 2016 onwards, you'd perhaps be under the impression that the EU was about to do to the UK what Putin's Russia is doing to Ukraine at the moment.
Ukraine is fighting for its sovereignty. And doing so, up close and personal. Red in tooth and claw. You'd naturally assume then that those claiming sovereignty and freedom would be on the side of Ukraine and any other country in the same predicament. Not as we see with the odious bigot Nigel Farage making any and every excuse for Vlad Putin.
It's telling, that after 'Brexit' the biggest act of cowardice in British history which has helped destabilize Europe; Johnson our leader in all this, is someone who would hide in a fridge at the fist sign of trouble!
