One of the few things I like about US politics is the limit of two terms for a president.

It keeps the megalomaniacs in check.

Russia scrapped it because they liked Putin. China just did the same with Xi.

I wish we had something similar here. Thatcher and Blair would've gone out with their heads held high, instead of feeling they had reached their best-before date.

Not me I said on here many times he's pretty much loved by the Russian voters.

Let's face some facts, Russians (along with many of Soviet block countries) are somewhat behind western democracies, culturally speaking, they're a little bit racist, a little bit nationalist,a little bit crazy on health and safety a bit like the UK in the 70s.

Putin gives them what they want, who wouldn't vote for him given that context

Because he couldn't lose.

It was a circus.

i grew up during the Cold War.

An era when a huge amount of this country's treasure was devoted to developing and pointing weapons of mass destruction at Moscow.

It was a battle of ideology, I thought - the capitalist countries of NATO versus the communist countries of the Warsaw Pact.

It was about freeing the people from the tyranny of dictatorship.

That's what I was told.

Fast forward 30 years.

The West won the Cold War and the people of the Warsaw Pact got their freedom.

The people of the UK, having spent a fortune giving eastern Europeans their freedom, decided they didn't actually like their freedom to come to live and work in the UK and pulled up the drawbridge in the EU referendum.

Now we have an outburst of Russia phobia across all our media, our politicians making all sorts of threats against Russia and its leaders, our military top brass demanding more money be spent on weapons to confront the Russians.

This isn't ideology - this is tribal warfare. Two tribes with an intense distrust of each other.

The dangers of escalation are obvious.

I have seen some of the “CCTV” from the polling stations this morning. One of them has a lady pulling some balloons across the camera when they begin the count.

Have you honestly not even seen one single story about him banning his opposition?

Serious opposition leaders like Nemstov tend to end up dead.

Nice guy, not sure you could class him as serious opposition though that doesn't justify anybody ending up dead

i saw the clip on the BBC.

The cameras in the polling stations are not secret. People know they exist.

It seems a little too obvious for a "woman to be stuffing a ballot box with papers", as the BBC asserted this morning.

And Dr Kellys suicide was just another timely coincidence... Even though a hundred doctors say it was impossible for him to commit suicide in that manner

How do you expect opposition to grow if he keeps arresting and banning them?

Meanwhile, large numbers of voting papers were seen being posted by certain individuals (not Putin himself).

In Australia, the Queen's written communications from the 1970s are to remain secret from the public, despite influence upon the government's position/continuity of the day. Decades later, she's still in the same position - she is perhaps Putin's model
