The UK is fighting the Russian infection, too. I'm convinced that Brexit was a trial run for 11/8/16



The extraordinary links between the Kremlin, Putin, organised crime, money laundering and corruption mean that anyone connected to the Russian state today must be considered malign supporter of a mafia dictator. Choose a side - democracy or dictatorship - you can’t back both.

After Putin singled me out in Helsinki, I’m not backing down, but doubling down. Today we filed detailed criminal complaint with the Estonian authorities about Russian money laundering in Estonia that benefits Putin’s best friend, Cellist Sergei Roldugin https://www.barrons.com/articles/browder-launches-new-money-laundering-complaint-1532556258

Especially since Nigel Farage and Boris were pretty tight with Assange and Trump's team. In fact,I can't believe there isnt a UK investigation into this already ! Farage is as greasy as Roger Stone. I've felt all along that the same forces were behind both events.

But destroying the EU is a goal for him regardless of Trump. So, not really a trial run as much as it is another instance.
