In the UK the only people backing Russia publiclly were obviously Nigel 'Oswald' Farage, but also Corbyn and co.

Corbyn (who led the main opposition party from 2015-2019, nearly becoming PM in 2017, and then falling to a massive wipeout in 2019) has already been fired from Labour, but his "gang" were all there queueing up to worship Putin until they were bluntly told they'd be sacked.

Turns out that it's not Putin's fault Russia invaded, it's all America's fault. Probably Tony Blair too for some reason.
