For us political gamblers one of the things we’re now having to factor in to our bets is which candidate or party is Vladimir Putin backing.

You mean he doesn't agree with you Malc.. Is the sun shining in the Midlands? You seem to have caught a touch.. and so early in the day too.
Your guidance geometrics are about as accurate as US missiles , 300 miles off target. No problem with him diasgreeing , I meanwhile doubt some of the information and engage my brain whereas the fool just regurgitates US propaganda verbatim. Not enough brains to be able to think for himself.
2. Michael Dugher not pulling his punches, he’ll be on Jeremy’s naughty step at this rate.
3. I never know if Putin’s seal of approval is good or bad for the candidate.
The UK acts as the banker for Russia's elite (such as it is). I'm not so sure that Comrade Corbyn is quite the thing for them any more.
O/T Well, maybe, but are we to assume Mr Putin is already trying, and has been trying for ages, or that he has yet to stick his oar in?
If his attempts are still to come, it would presumably have to be making the Conservatives look so bad that swathes of the electorate will think anything's better than that.
Since that's what most of them seem to think already about Mr Corbyn's Labour, I can't help thinking that before the UK got very far down that path, some unintended consequences would kick in and there would be some rather unexpected results.
Mr Farage for PM, perhaps?
Good afternoon, everybody.
Dick Cheney says Russia interfered with the last US Presidential election, he is no fan of Hillary Clinton.
Events in France have also led to concerns.
If it can happen in America and France why not here?
Does anybody know if there is any thing in this?
I could have thought that, it would have crated a bigger back lash than it was worth. but maybe I am wrong.
Le Pen has denied those allegations, but makes no secret of the fact that the Front National has taken loans from foreign banks because French financial institutions refuse to fund the presidential campaign.

Nothing on this earth could makke Corbyn PM - apart from revolution favoured by the hard left loons.

I'm not a fan of Putin myself but at the moment it feels like we're back in the 1950's and "red's under the bed" lol!
Except, of course, there might be rival gangs of hackers with differing aims.
Using fake news on social media.
The other alleged Russian influenced events were always on the up werent they?
Nuttall to make Jezza PM ? .... Obviously.
However, maybe it isn't preposterous. In that case PB.com would be looking long & hard at the Kremlinology. So, first up: is there any real evidence to suggest that countries' recent elections have been won by parties/individuals beneficial to Moscow? (Remember that 'beneficial' isn't necessarily the same as 'friendly'.)
That something being his accusation of Boris being a pathetic Washington poodle for not going to see the Russians but having Uncle Rex go instead.
If he must be kept around, it's time for Boris to be made Minister for paperclips or something.

* 1) Accessing voter registration lists.
* 2) Creating fake news sites
* 3) Funding research and targeting organisations
* 4) Liasing with opposition candidates
You take the voter registration lists, use the research and targeting organisations to construct profiles of voters who are more recipient to your messages, target them with your fake news and "push polling", use your liaisons to ensure you know who's doing what and make sure you're not pissing your money away.
If you're feeling really sadistic, you can deregister voters you believe will vote against you, and plant/uncover unflattering/criminal details of the people you don't want to win, ready to pop just before the election. Garnish with virtual posters generating fear, uncertainty and doubt and serve.
Basically, normal politics but with the force of another state behind it.
Pause.
Well, you did ask...
Let's hope it is amusing and not prescient.
No muzzling the press nowadays just get them to print mince.
Would have done
The current arrangement in Russia also works. A side effect though is that we get to see the rather unpleasant side of Russian society here in the UK spending their gains.

Not.
Anyway, to answer 'why couldn’t Putin make Corbyn PM?', what's that line about a pig and lipstick again?
Normal politics? Sadly.
Should have been 'chance in a blue Umunna', but I'm sure you guessed that.

Are these tweets really from the Russian Embassy? The Telegraph seems to report them as such.
Do not forget to consult the People's Sporting Excellence Motorsport Blog, compiled with ruthless scrutiny and objectivity by the Commissar for Highly Dangerous Speed (myself): http://enormo-haddock.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/china-post-race-analysis-2017.html
The key difference is that Le Pen is a woman. However it should be noted that this is the key difference most noticeable in this photograph.
I'm sort of speechless. What an embarrassment for anyone that's Russian.
Do you reveal all, about how Mr Putin arranges the podium-finishers before the race starts?

I wonder whether you've ever considered writing comedy scripts.
Naturally, all sporting events have no pre-determined result. It is simply the law of moral competence that those who most ardently support glorious President Putin, and therefore have the strongest moral fibre, go on to achieve the greatest success.
Those are already split up amongst hilarious "LibDem World Domination Is Imminent" threads
Go back to your constituencies and prepared for World Domination.
Do we get multiple choices?
It felt like a tie-breaker in a pub quiz when the answer turns out to be someone completely unexpected.
Corbyn might as well remain in charge of a shambles because at this point there is no benefit for whoever succeeds him so no contenders will emerge.
It needs Fallon to be stroking a white cat at the time, though.
