It's ironic that Economist keeps pushing this propaganda year after year, but it's UK that has worse and worse performing PM's, but every single one of them keep dreaming not about their own country and economy, but how to topple Putin.

This article was written by a guest author, and The Economist has plenty negative to say about the current state of UK affairs.
Writing an article is not an attempt to depose someone.

There are many, many articles on the front page of this publication that are not about Russia, so clearly "every single one of them" isn't even hyperbolically true.

Writing an article about the problems of a foreign nation when your own nation has problems isn't - and has never been - ironic.

I mean, the Economist has been... pretty sceptical of the UK's behaviour for a long time. It was extremely critical of Brexit, for instance. In 2017 and 2019 it endorsed the _Liberal Democrats_, for goodness sake.
