Jon Danzig: A Vote for Brexit Was a Vote for Putin

Putin’s fingerprints are all over Brexit. There’s been suspicions of this for some time, but the evidence is now compelling and urgently needs proper investigation.

Motive is the key incentive for any crime. There have never been any benefits for Britain doing Brexit. Not even one. Any apparent motive for leaving the EU was based on a pack of astonishing, outrageous lies.

But the benefits to Russia from Brexit are both clear and enormous.

For almost two decades, Putin has harboured antagonism over the loss of the Soviet empire, to be successfully replaced by the enlargement of the EU, encroaching on what he considered to be Russian territory.

In 2005 he declared: “the collapse of the Soviet Union was a major geopolitical disaster”

Putin has used covert techniques to destabilise the European Union in his imperial goal to create a new Russian empire, starting with his invasions of Ukraine.

A win for ‘Leave’ was all part of that agenda.

The lies that led to Brexit, in part fuelled and funded by Putin, were compelling, convincing, and used the powerful techniques of psychological warfare.

All of us were misled. But now Britain and Britons must decide where we stand and which side we support.

Our political elite allowed our country to become a stooge for Putin’s nefarious intentions, with absolutely no benefits to us.

But the reality is that it’s the EU we should be supporting, not Putin. The EU stands for what Britain and Britons really stand for and have always stood for.

We must support the EU project and start our journey – however long it takes – to rejoining our true family in Europe.

The Russian Partygate

Jun 17, 2023 | This is MUCH more serious than the Downing Street parties.

Everyone is talking about Partygate now that the former Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has been found to have misled Parliament over Covid lockdown parties. But much more serious is The Russian Partygate – the allegations that Boris Johnson put the country’s security into serious peril with his connections to Russia and the former KGB spy and billionaire Russian oligarch, Alexander Lebedev.

There are questions about this that Mr Johnson and the government still stubbornly refuse to answer. Why, for example, did Mr Johnson, when he was Foreign Secretary in 2018, leave a top-level NATO meeting to immediately fly, alone and without his officials, to join a party with Mr Lebedev, and his Russian-born son Evgeny, at his luxurious villa in Italy?

The next day Mr Johnson was seen at San Francesco d’Assisi airport “looking like he had slept in his clothes” and reportedly barely able to walk. In 2020, despite objections by the UK security services and the House of Lords Appointments Commission, Mr Johnson as Prime Minister appointed Evgeny Lebedev – owner of The Independent and the Evening Standard – to the House of Lords.

The government has resisted calls from Labour to publish the full documents related to the peerage. The government’s decision not to order an investigation into Russia’s alleged interference in the Scottish independence referendum, the EU referendum, and the 2019 general election, has been taken to the European Court of Human Rights for a ruling. The international court has ordered the government to respond to the legal claim brought by three MPs – Ben Bradshaw (Labour), Caroline Lucas (Green), and Alyn Smith (SNP).

Earlier this year, The European Court sent the government a list of questions going to the heart of the allegations. The government was required to respond by 26 April. We still don’t know if they did. The Court press office advised me [Mr Danzig] that a judgement on the case is “currently still pending” and in the meantime, “The parties’ pleadings are not published.” Commented Ben Bradshaw, “We argue that the government’s failure [to investigate Russian interference] was a breach of its duty to ensure free and fair elections in the United Kingdom, and as such constitutes a very serious breach of its obligations to the British people.”
