The Gazprom office workers in St Petersburg may as well forget their redundancy payments (if such things exist in Russia)... they are going straight to the banks

Great if true. But even if it’s untrue, lets hope the rumour spreads throughout Russia: would be good to see some panic in the big cities who’ve largely been insulated from the war so far

Civil war.
The oligarchs will be ok with their offshore accounts.
Elvira's future is polonium, so she is going to take Russia down with her.
Ukraine has dumped a load of fake rubles in the occupied territories.
I think the replies are quite tame to be honest.

Interesting BBC report today about a Ukrainian lady who’s husband is a PoW. She received phone calls from Russia suggesting that she act as a spotter for sabotage targets and carry out arson attacks in Ukraine…otherwise her husband would suffer.

How Russia tries to turn desperate Ukrainians into traitors
The wife of a Ukrainian prisoner of war explains how Russia attempted to recruit her for sabotage.

Those faces do not look like the faces of people who fancy saying no to the Kremlin.
Also, fun fact, 1.4m rubles will soon be the cost of popcorn
IIRC phone calls are received about 50% of the PoWs

Denial by the Central Bank of Russia:
Nothing to see here then... I still have my popcorn at the ready though

Also nothing to see on the ruble front of late - it's been hovering around 102-103 for days. It's as if most trading has been stopped.Nothing to see here then... I still have my popcorn at the ready though

Apparently, Russians don't trust the Russian authorities. Did you know about this?Nothing to see here then... I still have my popcorn at the ready though
As we in the west have been subject to years of Russian bots and trolls spreading disinformation and sowing seeds of discord in our countries, it's quite gratifying to see it happening over there as well

Russians are very selective in what they trust.
They trust the SMO in Ukraine, and trust Putin's desire to regain empire, and trust their boys are treated fairly in the Russian military....but
they don't trust the government when they say their money is safe in the banks.
Has anyone found a point in that video that relates to the caption 'Trump brought Putin to his knee'? How so?
