Youri McAnespie Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I've just read he resides in America. We'd have to lure him over under some pretence. A guest star bit on Doctor Who? perhaps? Quote
gonzo Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 I said as soon as trump got in. There will be Russian tanks on our streets by 2020. Quote

miamiwhite Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 I said as soon as Corbyn got in. There will be Russian tanks on our streets by 2020. Quote
bolty58 Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 I said as soon as trump got in. There will be Russian tanks on our streets by 2020. Pah! There's already one in B. & E. Boys' place in Waterfoot. Quote
Spider Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 I said as soon as trump got in. There will be Russian tanks on our streets by 2020. My Russian is a bit basic, but I think I saw a tweet from Putin a while back that said he'd put the budgies back in the Arndale in Bolton once he get here. Sometimes, we fear the unknown without any reason. Quote
Spider Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 On a serious note Putin is much much more dangerous than Trump. He also has access to enough weaponry to leave Western Europe looking like the surface of Mars within about 4 hours. They don't give a fuck, and we can do nothing about it. My response would be to kick all Russian dissidents out of the country and leave them to it. Sanctions against Russia are like throwing your shoes at the sky to get rid of the clouds. Quote
mickbrown Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 Seize all assets belonging to Russians in the UK. Apparently there are 150k of the buggers in London. Putins oligarch mates will soon put the fucker right. Money talks. Quote
Blondi Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 Think I might get my old Commodore 64 out and play raid over Moscow in a bit. Quote

Putins oligarch mates will soon put the fucker right. Money talks. This.... Putin is sat at home pissing himself at TM and co talking tough. He knows there is very little we will actually do, so why not hit the fat greedy Russians who are here hard in the pocket, using the Unexplained Wealth Orders and other assets freezing measures available to the govt. The message will soon travel up stream. Edited March 14, 2018 by jimmyjoojar Quote

The message will soon travel up stream. Suggestions that law may be strengthened to allow us to grab more of their cash. Malcolm rifkind just saying they can put their money elsewhere, but there is good reason why they kèep it there currently. Wealthy Russians won't want their billions yielding less or being nabbed and surely that will get back to Putin Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 23 undeclared intelligence officers kicked out. Some stuff that can't be put in the public domain also being done. Restrictions on people and materials from there. It may take some time, but there might be a few properties for sale in London. Quote

frank_spencer Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 they wont do that to much invested hear and what they got to do with PutinMost of them got VERY rich when Put in sold off the state assets to his mates at a massively reduced price. Quote
miamiwhite Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 Most of them got VERY rich when Put in sold off the state assets to his mates at a massively reduced price. There was a good documentary on him the other night on the BBC. Well worth checking out on iplayer Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 So kicking out folk that shouldn’t be here in the first place Did wonder. I can only guess that we perhaps knew but were prepared to tolerate and possibly feed them disinformation. Other than that it seems a little strange. Quote
madthatter Posted March 14, 2018 Author Posted March 14, 2018 Did wonder. I can only guess that we perhaps knew but were prepared to tolerate and possibly feed them disinformation. Other than that it seems a little strange. Hardly worth speculating on given the espionage involved, and we are no angels. Putin's won a round in public, it seems, and we don't like it. Quote
birch-chorley Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 Can you legally just seize somebody’s assets because of the actions of their country of birth? Some of these guys are now British Citizens are t they, seems a bit odd If anything I wouldn’t want to frighten these guys off, let them keep and spend their vast wealth here Quote
Guest Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 We should just nobble one of their spies. That Jeremy Corbyn for starters. Quote
Guest Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 I think we're a bit stupid to be rattling Russia without actually having proof that the attack was directed by the Russian state. Its all pretty stupid as everyone knows we're not going to annoy them too much. Especially since they put Trump and his team in the whitehouse so we don't even have an ally there should push come to shove. Quote
radcliffe white Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 I think the evidence is pretty conclusive that Russia ordered it Quote
