@Mirpuria The Reason he purchased the Newspaper for a pound was beacuse he would be taking on all the debts.

LMAO..the journalist said i don,t care who buys it as long as i get payed ..Maybe if they had told the British People the truth all those years .It wouldn,t end up being given away like the evening standard or a Bangkok Porno flyer

[Mirpuria]

What? How does that work buying for just a £1??

Ha!- as i stated here before being Russian is not nationality. Not all Russians have Russian soul because Communist Era left large mark, but people that were in Russia read Russian authors such as Tolstoy, have seen the bridge between Europe and Asia between Ying and Yang...I'm no nationalist I don't think my country is better than anyother) Russia is too large to be a country or a nation...it is more than that.

JERSEYFLX23 - so you live in the US but speak of your cultural heritage as if it's the only bound you serve in this lifetime. Is this the general reasoning of all Russian people?! Nationalist?! Could you not see how your viewpoint is racist within itself? How about opening up your internal borders and mingle with people outside your own ethnicity? Gosh, you live in a country made up of every possible ethnicity, it's imperative for you to get on with other ethnicities!

it is clear to me someone has no clue about Russian oligarchy clique)

p.s. Land of exile it might be but it's necessary exile( educational since my english ain't good enough _ )

[jerseyflex238]

Mikhail Freedman would say "such a buck" yeap Freedman he is pure jew, he might have personal problems such as weight control and other but he is Russian 100% by his heart and attachment to Moscow elite) где носилки? смирительная рубашка помогите это дефачке)

I can get much uglier and you're not so pretty little boy))). I guess the land of their exile then has little to do with it all))) maybe that is so, maybe not. You are very clearly convinced that the 'Russian soul' is the reason for depraved financial dealings and disloyalty))) nice to see you have such a high (realistic?) opinion of your 'souls'))) but then Im sure you would find it to your displeasure to be told that, which you just said)))

does that ")))" help you understand English better?

[jerseyflex238]

oh yes now clearly we could see your real face) oh boy it's ugly!))) If you have no clue what are Lebedev or Freedman or Abramovich or Deripaska or Prohorov or Mordashev are like you shouldn't open ur dirty little mouth))) They are Russian they were born, grew and were educated in Russia...they got our soul, Pushkin was Ethiopian pure Russian soul...)))

...fucking little stupid child talking about who should and shouldn't say what. you've got too little critical thinking ability , as well as too little command of English, to make any reasonable statements on anything of consequence. Now go stew in your spoon fed rhetoric and cliche dumbed down grade school sensibility.
