I would like to ask Moses if he is a surpporter of Putin ?

[Jellybean]

Good question. Owner of Independent is UK lord from House of lords (since few days ago when El. II signed order and promoted him to baron Syberian (yes, is it kind of British humor, but it is true)), his name is Eugeny Lebedev and he is son of Russian oligarch and high level KGB officer Alexander Lebedev, who is living in UK sometimes (or mostly).

Interesting, I was not previously aware of the new peerage, Moses and post below the official confirmation:

Yeah. I think it is right time for Putin to appoint also somebody with strange title. For example vice-king of GB.
