So, this is a bit confusing. Yes you're right that sanctions are just orders not to do business with certain companies, but one thing that Britain has up its sleeve is that ingeniously it spent the last decade luring Russian business men into buying expensive property and asssets in London under the clearly false pretense that they were safe from reprisal since they paid millions to the tory party (to be clear, I'm not slandering anyone, because they weren't corrupt as fuck, they were simply laying a trap) and now that we have them right where we want them we can use unexplained wealth orders to seize those assets - for example, expensive london flats, or the entirity of Chelsea football club, or Lord Lebedev's (good strong british name) Lordship (which definitely wasn't also bestowed upon him by the british government). Unexplained wealth orders basically say "Prove you got the money legitimately or this is ours now" - which is brilliant because we know they didn't get the money legitimately, because no one innocent pays millions of pounds to the tory party to protect themselves if they're innocent. Ipso facto, our corruption, literally a good thing. Edit: Oh unless we actually are corrupt, and we don't actually carry out the unexplained wealth orders. Notably, the British government hasn't carried out any. |
