[billsbest]

I was shocked to read today that we have a Russian Oligarch sitting in the House of Lords!! Lord Lebedev. Not saying it is necessarily wrong just surprised.

Depends whether he’s creaming dirty money from Russia. If so then he should be sacked immediately and deported.

If he’s not part of the Putin circle and has not financial transactions with Russia then it could be different.

Not being funny but WTF do we expect Abramovic to do ?
Rich people don’t stay rich by being outspoken
He made his money by brown nosing and crossing palms with silver and stealing what was rightly the Russian peoples

Why would we expect him to start being a good guy to start being a righteous person??

Because he bought a few players and made Chelsea a big club???

He’s not going to say **** to Putin what’s the upside for him to?
Or even speak out at all, he’s not a politician he’s a business man

For me the people in our government who have helped the likes of him and other oligarchs pour their money into London are the ones we should be calling out

He does absolutely nothing though BS.

Just a smirking and sinister presence.

[BaggieSingh]

Why do we feel he should do something for us or anyone ?

Especially something that will damage him

Why not look for a higher level of morals and accountability by others who have been elected into power

[Dubbag]

Well FIFA and other sporting bodies have now banned Russia indefinitely.....

100% agree BS. He’s not got rich by being a nice guy!! Freeze his assets too like the rest!

Chelsea is for sale for 2/4 billion!! The club owe him 1.5 billion, which shows the incredible amount he has invested in the club. There are supposedly 4 potential bidders so how about whoever doesn't get Chelsea buying us instead? He wants the deal done this week obviously in an attempt to get his money out of the country before it is too late.

The warning to rich Russians linked to Putin that the UK government “will come after you” and ensure oligarchs have “nowhere to hide” is likely to hit hard at the gated luxury housing estate in Surrey dubbed “Britain’s Beverly Hills”.

Russians and those from former Soviet states own more than a quarter of the 430 luxurious homes in St George’s Hill, a heavily guarded 964-acre estate near Weybridge, Surrey, where mansions have changed hands for more than £20m each.

Liz Truss, the foreign secretary, said on Sunday that the government was drawing up a “hitlist” of oligarchs with links to Putin who will be added to the sanctions list in coming days and weeks.


“We have to make it deeply painful for the oligarchs that support the Putin regime. There are over a hundred Russian billionaires,” she told the Sunday Times. “Nothing is off the table in terms of who or what we are targeting. We are very clear about that – we are very prepared to do what it takes.”
