Boris Yeltsin RIP

[Vlad the Impala]

At 76 apparently.

Well, they won't need to spend too much on embalming.

I'll have a vodka.

Well, they won't need to spend too much on embalming.

As Sir Henry once said, "I don't give a toss what you have done with me when I've shuffled off me mortal coil. Shove a bit of flex up my back passage, stick a light bulb in my mouth and stand me in the hall. Mind you, you'll have to dry me out first."

Quality.

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

So farewell then, to a politician called Boris,
Famous for your luxuriant white hair
And making a tit of yourself in public

 

[Biscuit]

RIP Boris.

A fighter for democracy, however 'patchy' his political/economic career.

 

[Trufflehound]

Will they be cremating Boris? Because if they are they'd better have the Fire Brigade on stand-by...

 

[London Calling]

But how much was he supported by the CIA and the US Government.

The US and World Bank wanted to open up Russia to free trade immediately, Gorbochov wanted to open up Russia slowly, ensure stability, the social system was in place.

The CIA find themselves a p*** head, CIA works with ex KGB and Communist officals running the big state companies.

Bingo a "coup" is arranged, Boris is seen as a hero, Gorbochov is seen powerless.

Corruption takes over Russia.
