It was always a stupid idea because it's been obvious for years that Vladimir Putin is an unmitigated sh*t but now the UK government has pledged to cut all imports of Russian oil by the end of this year. This country is in the fortunate position of not actually importing that much - for mainland Europe the situation is a lot more difficult.
There is a saying that democracy is the least worst form of government and the current crisis certainly demonstrates that it's a better bet that totalitarianism. I'm just massively ashamed that those in power in this country were so greedy for Russian money - most of it stolen for the poor benighted citizens who are now being lied to on a grand scale.
