Please do not post anything from The Independent or Evening Standard. It’s owned by Russians who could have links to KGB/FSB.
Evgeny Lebedev is a shareholder of The Independent (41%) and Evening Standard (63%). He is a Russian oligarch, son of Alexander Lebedev who is, according to Wikipedia, a “Russian businessman, and has been referred to as one of the Russian oligarchs. Until 1992, he was an officer in the First Chief Directorate (Foreign Intelligence) of the Soviet Union′s KGB and later one of the KGB’s successor-agencies, Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR).” Alexander’s net worth is ~$3 billion.
At that moment future PM Boris Johnson was with Evgeny Lebedev at the party in Italian villa. Nobody knows what they exactly were doing there. And when Johnson was a PM, he nominated Lebedev for a peerage in 2020, giving him a seat in the Upper House for life at House of Lords.
P.S.: Evgeny Lebedev was also an owner of London Live TV channel, it’s was closed on January 2025.
P.S. #2: Evgeny Lebedev “maintained friendship with Boris Johnson since the late 2000s, with Lebedev’s Evening Standard endorsing Johnson as the Mayor of London. Johnson has been reported to have attended vodka and caviar parties hosted by Alexander and Evgeny Lebedev in the UK and Italy throughout the 2010s.”
P.S. #3: That show with Brexit in United Kingdom was when Boris Johnson was a Prime Minister. Back then, there were advertising campaign on buses, like “we just giving away to EU 350 million pounds and they give us nothing”. It seems that was a lie.

Alexander Lebedev was a member of the state Duma in 2003-2007, had connections with Gorbachev (Radio Liberty had an article on their website where they mentioned that Gorbachev awarded scientists from the toxicology laboratory where poisons are produced to kill “enemies of the people”, but I can’t find it now, so it can be false). He was recently sanctioned by Canada (under number 820; https://www.international.gc.ca/world-monde/international_relations-relations_internationales/sanctions/consolidated-consolide.aspx?lang=eng).

Sources and some news articles:
The KGB was replaced by the FSB (domestic) and SVR (foreign) agencies. Ach, you’re right, same shit different names.
What about the Telegraph? I thought they are heavily influenced by bastard Muscovites.
I don’t have any information about The Telegraph.
It’s a news outlet that was described as conservative/right-wing, so maybe that’s why it seems like that. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegraph.co.uk)
