Twice this year i have come round to the thinking off two people ive always had a deep dislike for
A) Piers Morgan! (his level headed views on Brexit)
B) Putin! (see below)
Now if Putin isn't making a calculated stab here to give momentoum to the opposition when he smells theres an uprising or what but what he says here i completely agree with.
Especially this bit.
"[Liberals] cannot simply dictate anything to anyone," said Mr Putin, who has served as president for nearly two decades.
He added that liberalism conflicted with "the interests of the overwhelming majority of the population," and took aim at German Chancellor Angela Merkel for allowing large numbers of refugees to settle in Germany.
"This liberal idea presupposes that nothing needs to be done. That migrants can kill, plunder and rape with impunity because their rights as migrants have to be protected."
Mr Putin, 66, also said Russia had "no problems with LGBT persons… but some things do appear excessive to us".
"They claim now that children can play five or six gender roles," he continued.
"Let everyone be happy, we have no problem with that. But this must not be allowed to overshadow the culture, traditions and traditional family values of millions of people making up the core population."
