Why are factions in Russia, the US, UK and the rest of Europe (not a comprehensive list) involved in antagonism, secrecy, plots and subversion with each other? What's the goal? What do they want? Just asked for it straight out and bargain from there. Save a world of trouble.

Another name from the past rears its head:
The sharks are circling!
Let's just say that if I were a solicitor, this is one company I'd steer clear of:Former SNP MP Michelle Thomson, who was suspended from the party following controversy over her property deals, has launched a business comeback advising firms about Brexit.
She announced the creation of her new company Momentous Change three months after the Crown Office said she would not face prosecution following a police investigation into alleged mortgage fraud. Thomson’s co-founder in what is described as a “niche consultancy with international ambitions” is Roger Mullin, the former SNP MP who lost his Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath seat earlier this year and who was an academic before entering politics.
http://www.scotsman.com/news/politics/f ... -1-4610876" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;Police became involved after Christopher Hales, her former solicitor, was struck off for professional misconduct over 13 deals in 2010 and 2011 that raised the question of mortgage fraud. All were linked to the former MP or to M&F Property Solutions, of which Thomson was a partner.
Thomson was also forced to deny accusations that her firm targeted the vulnerable by buying up homes at below market value from those desperate for a quick sale, before selling them on for a quick profit.

I may have unknowingly bumped into the truth at some time, but if so it meant nothing too me and we no longer keep in touch.Chris Bryant MP, the vice chair of the all-party parliamentary Russia group, said: “It’s all distinctly fishy. Boris Johnson’s relationship with the truth right now seems distinctly casual. We asked him about Russian interference in Brexit in the foreign affairs committee last week and he categorically denied he had seen a shred of evidence. I just thought ‘blimey’. Even as a junior minister in the foreign office, Russian stuff came across my desk every single day.”

The forgotten Muslim heroes who fought for Britain in the trenches
The stories of the 2.5 million Muslims who travelled to Europe to fight for the allies during the first world war are finally being told
Having travelled thousands of miles from hotter climes, these soldiers went into the trenches with imams whose duties included leading group prayers and reciting the call to prayer into the ears of the dying. Special orders had been issued on when and how to pray. “If the war is intense and the Muslim does not have a moment of peace to fulfil his prayer he can just move his head and torso,” said a declaration from French high command. “In the case where there are moments of calm, one can complete the prayer together.”

People really shouldn't start blaming Russia for everything that has happened which they don't like in the last few years.
Russia didn't cause Brexit, Russia didn't cause Trump, Russia hasn't made our government become a total clown show.
There's a few people out there (especially certain media commentators on both sides of the Atlantic) yearning for the moral certainties of the Cold War IMO.

Re: Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th November 2017
Russia is run by a bunch of crooks and the UK is run by a bunch of spivs and neither have the best interests of ordinary UK citizens at heart.
We're leaving the EU because a hotch potch of wealthy people, from billionaire newspaper owners and dodgy City bankers to Russian oligarchs feared new EU tax haven laws would shut down their City of London funnel to their opaque Carribean financial arrangements.
Ordinary people wouldn't have got offered Brexit unless some of those in charge wanted it to happen. Ukip didn't stand a chance of ever wining power democratically, few people cared enough about the EU to vote on it alone. Brexit was driven by Tories. It's completely relevant to investigate who those Tories have been in contact with.

It's easier to focus on a single foe than it is to untangle and make sense of interconnected problems and issues.
I've no time for sloppy, ham-fisted, phoney, conspiracy theorist whataboutery hijacking real news. The barrage of noise there doesn't negate real links and factual evidence of wrongdoing. I don't think Russia pushed some button and made Brexit or Trump happen but I do think Willow's description of the nefariousness of Russian leadership is accurate.

The European parliament’s Brexit coordinator, Guy Verhofstadt, told the Observer that the British government, as a co-guarantor of the Good Friday Agreement, should be putting the interests of the people on the island of Ireland ahead of the survival of the Conservative party. He said: “Both the UK and the EU have a duty to work towards a solution for the people of the island of Ireland which avoids the reimposition of any kind of hardened border. It is crucial to safeguard peace and to preserve the Good Friday Agreement, which was brokered with the active participation of the European Union. … I hope the British government will do what is right for all the people of Northern Ireland. The peace process should transcend domestic party politics.”

A cross-party group of MPs has tabled a motion demanding action and the debate will be focused on the work and pensions select committee’s first report on universal credit. The single recommendation calls for payments to be made no later than four weeks in the first instance."
