I saw this quote at CTH, but there was no attribution. I quote it hear because it sounds right to me:
“The UK has nothing left but those sketchy money markets and exchanges. The Russians, joking at the sanctions, pricing resources in rubles, working with BRICS, are an existentialist threat to the UK. It shows that the financial exchanges and trading houses based in the UK are paper tigers because they can be easily bypassed. Russia is indeed an existentialist threat to the UK.”
Interesting comment by Luongo. I see Johnson as having done everything the WEF asked for, except Brexit:
“Davos taking out {The UK’s Boris} Johnson”

Ukraine was a Hail Mary by Johnson to distract from his multiple failures including:
- Brexit
- Netzero / energy policies
- Covid
- immigration
- crime
- political correctness / wokism
Seems the uk conservative party resembles the eGOP, and is made up of elites that ignore / disrespect their deplorable voter wants and needs, and focus on their own class.
