    [News] Mike Amesbury MP - Rocky VIII: Backbench Brawler

    Fair enough. It was naive of me to think Cyril Smith was a one-off.

    Don't say that - you'll give them ideas. Or maybe it's already too late. I saw a clip of the lovely Margarita Simonyan, head of RT, claiming that most of the propagandists don't exist and were the product of AI. I presume the editorial decision to say that, was designed to mislead, confuse...

    Indeed. Also note in the video in post 17283, suggestions of a rise in organised crime with local gangsters and warlords fighting each other. Also people bartering for essentials. Mark Galeotti talks of shoot-outs on the streets of Moscow.
