New MP For Siberia! (Compliments to Guido Fawkes for this!)

Published by Matthew Francis on December 17th, 2011 - in Humour, Politics, Rant, Travel

There has been a lot of discussion about the flawed elections in Russia. Guido reckons their democracy can’t be that bad if they will elect a Playboy playmate has been elected as one of Vladimir Putin’s United Russia MPs in the Duma. Guido has no idea what her manifesto was but he’d vote for Maria Kozhevnikova, 27.

She was a member of the youth wing of Putin’s political party United Russia, which is currently facing allegations of vote-rigging after this month winning a narrow overall majority in parliament. There have been suggestions that she is romantically linked to Putin. C’mon he’s no Berlusconi… is he?

    I had quite forgotten how interesting politics can be in the Motherland.

    I feel a return vist over the Christmas break is called for.

    Siberia can get incredibly cold at times. You have to find ways to keep warm. I can think of a number of ways that Miss Kozhevnikova can help her constituents to keep warm!

    @ Tatiana

    Oooer! – Get you, love!!

    Actually Dimitri, I think that Tatiana has political aspirations, which is why she is quite sensitive on this topic. Perhaps she can post a photo of herself on the site and we can decide whether she has the right skill set for Russian politics? Tatiana, what do you think?

  13. Tatiana says:

    @ Valerie

    In your dreams, Собака лица!!!
