Yeah.. Please can he do the same here in Australia
Shipping people out of the UK to Australia?
That'd never work. You'd have to charge them at least ten pound.
Dozens !!!!
The readership of that paper are so fucking dim it’s unreal.
Increasing the average IQ of both countries
At least 34 people have requested to move to Russia from the UK
What does this mean. So the actual number could be any number between 34 and the entire population of the UK?
Or, does it mean that there is 34 people that we know of. And they're having trouble finding anyone else.
I wonder how many Russians have left Russia in the same time period.
I also wonder what percentage 34 people are of the entire population of the UK.
It just strikes me as a desperate propaganda ploy from the Kremlin. Inflating a nothing burger beyond all proportion.
I wish our expats well. And the best of luck to 'em.
The current population of the UK is somewhere around 68 million.
Thats enough people that you could probably find “dozens” who would say yes to just about anything.
That group of 34 people moving to Russia have been referred to by some as the Russia 34, or R34 for short.
Yeah, I saw that.
They even setup an entire website dedicated to the magnificence of Putin.
Just search for "R34 Putin Russia"
That’d be about 0.00005% I think.
It's around one in two million.
You can laugh, but the drywall installers of the UK ain't laughing. Patching up the headbutt dents in the homes of these angry potatoes is their bread and butter.
The trick is to fit 9.5mm every time, until their partner asks if there is a way to make it stronger.
Then fit 2 layers of 15mm soundboard.
Brave people... Not clever but brave.
Do they have to give up their UK citizenship for this?
Who cares when they die in the trenches some weeks from now?
They'll just be tortured to death like this guy.
That was... interesting. My guess is those orcs couldn't grasp the efficiency of modern surveillance and warfare and thought that their constant losses only could be attributed to an old fashioned spy in their company.
They don't know and are not informed that their fellow orcs are being slaughtered by the thousands every day everywhere on the front.
You mean it’s not for painting and decorating jobs after all ?
Free canon fodder.
So less Reform/Conservative voters in the UK. Win!
34 people from the UK according to the Torygraph. Loads
Defectors: "There are dozens of us... DOZENS!"
It's only just dozens, I mean it's 2 and a bit dozen, technically correct which is the worst kind of correct
Dozens!
Let’s hope it goes as terrible as the Canadian family.

those poor children
Special guests on the next episode of "Ukraine Front Lines..."
I wonder if/how many of them will be unwillingly forced to the front lines in Ukraine within a year...
Best thing Putin has ever done? I think maybe it is.
A recent migrant, identifying himself as 'Nigel F from Clacton', told reporters he was thrilled by his new life in Russia and the prospect of not having to see brown people at the shops or gay people on TV anymore.
That sounds lovely. Y’all should send your transphobes there too
Hope they enjoy getting their faces eaten!
I'm sure they'll be very happy in Russia. I'm sure they'll have long and productive lives and won't fall out of any windows or anything.
Future Lee Harvey Oswald's, every one of them!
