As we now know that Putin wants a return of the Russian Empire, including the Ukraine and Finland, and that destabilising Europe is a good way of making that happen, it makes a lot more sense of Moscow's interference in the Brexit debate. I always said that the whole leave campaign was built on lies and misinformation. We now know why Russian bots and trolls were involved as well. For those of you who are now feeling silly because leaving Europe has not provided the land of milk and honey that you were promised, please don't. It is not just you. Millions were not only duped by those wanting to make money out of chaos but we now know that Putin's imperialist goals played a major part in the biggest con trick of all time. Let us just hope it is not too late!
