Clown, you must be talking Uzbekistan and Georgia

Russians are known for cheap holidays in Egypt and Turkey

Last year 86 million trips were taken abroad by Brits Vs only 25 million by Russians. And Russia population is double UKs

You can only convince stark illiterates on this thread that Russia is comparable in wealth per capita to any Eastern European country talkless of Uk. Like I said, this thread contains the worst Nigeria has to offer
Uzbekistan is to Russia, what Spain is to the UK.


Russians would rather visit an ex soviet state than the west. It's a culture thingy.

⚡When Russia's opponents realize its readiness to respond to any challenges, they will understand it is time to look for compromises — Putin

More statements by the Russian President:

When Russia's potential was reduced by the actions of previous politicians, they began to finish it off, instead of making Russia a participant in the civilized world.

If Moscow is going to build relations with someone, it will be based only on the interests of Russia.

On the question of whether there will be a Third World War:

The dangers are increasing, but there is no need to frighten anyone.

If there is a desire, everything can be done; we have never lost it.

In all of Europe, there's no country I hate more than the UK.

A tiny, loud, failed, irrelevant, disorganized country feeding fat from the US generosity. A country overrun with Pakis and Indians it no longer feels like Europe.

The UK is the last country I'll ever visit in 10 lifetimes, no matter how much is offered.

Even Finland and Poland look more sane and organized than the UK.

Clown, you forgot 12% National Insurance

After all your mathematics, nobody will return from UK after 12 years to start hustling for N30k job like Russia did to you

Keep calculating, most UK citizens will get here with 1-2 months salary, I did it with way less than half my take home

Caviar with breakfast. This would cost the average Russian one week salary.
You think Russians will pay for imported caviar at that price when they could just buy locally made ones? Lmaoo.

Dummy. Even in Nigeria, caviars are sold at cheap local prices.

Dummy. As a matter of fact anyone earning $800 a month in Nigeria today is still far better than someone earning $4000 in the Youkay.

Or was I supposed to come back to Nigeria and still be receiving salary in Russia?

Fish brain. When you get back to Nigeria, do you still get paid in UK? Aren't you supposed to look for jobs in Nigeria?

And for the last time, message that moniker and ask her to show you where I asked for the 30k job or any job for that matter. Do that or get lost.


Bringing up that already thrashed topic will not change the fact the UK is a tiny island with very low wages, high taxes and below average standard of living in the whole of western Europe. Finland has a better standard of living.

You'll hardly see them posting their apartment pictures because of the tiny size. It's barely enough to fit two people, yet it costs almost the same as in the US. Compare that with Russians large apartments.

Local government area that makes a lot of noise like it's a Federation.

I know I'm living rent free in this eediot head.

Who spoke about food cost in Russia who earn 8 times less than UK. What you need to worry about is the inflation on food items not the price.

That's like saying food in Nigeria is cheap (which it is extremely cheap), meanwhile Nigerians are groaning of inflation cos it's relative to their earnings

Same way UK does not boast about being cheaper than Switzerland cos the Swiz earn more.

I'm currently relaxing in Cape Verde at a place that would cost the average Russian 7 months salary to get here, while this clown catching migraine over UK whose economic capacity brought me here with ease
How many years salary did it take you to be able to afford there?

Abi is it with UK salary. The same UK we all know has a 40% income tax? Unless you're earning below £50,000 then you get like 20 - 30% tax.

You earn £50,000 which is even high. Taxes 20%. Total take home = £38,771 yearly, £3,230.92 monthly, £745.60 weekly. Average rent in the UK is £1,200 minus other bills.

I'll bet my entire savings you don't earn up to £50,000. Because then you'll have to pay 40% tax.

Even the Prime Minister and top UK bankers earn nothing more than £170,000 gross.

Ibime, this thread (link to thread) about the prices of food items in Russia has almost 51,600 views as of today, making it one of the most popular threads on front page in recent days.

I know you have seen it, but I see that in your usual practice, you have refused to comment on it because it just exposed your propaganda about food being expensive in Russia.

These are the prices (1 ruble = 15.03 naira as of today):

— One Turkey leg 108 Rubles About 1,623 naira
— 0.5 kg Pig meat 227 Rubles About 3,412 naira
— One Whole chicken about 1.5kg 180 Rubles about 2,705 naira
— 0.7kg Onions 66 Rubles About 992 naira
— 1kg Sweet Potatoes 94 Rubles About 1,413 naira

Mind you, the OP said it is even expensive because of logistics and the remoteness of Yakutsk to other parts of Russia. So, these things are cheaper in other parts of Russia.

So, Ibime, how much is this sold in the UK? I see one 0.9 kg of turkey leg is 6,484 naira at Tesco. That is about four times the price in Russia. And to even think that the Russian one is larger since it is 1kg and not 0.9.

I checked chicken prices on Tesco too, and that one is even worse 😂😂. But we should not long the talk too much, how much are they sold in your UK since food is cheaper there than Russia?
I asked cococandy and she has been silent since. Maybe because she knows that it'll take a fortune to purchase similar items in the US.

They swore Russia's economy is in decline and ordinary people can no longer afford anything. They're just too propagandized by their media, they don't know what's happening in the real world. They know nothing happening outside the four walls of the US.

Let's not even talk about gas, clothes, electricity bills in Russia. Those ones are like the cheapest anywhere.

In 2014 despite all the sanctions and dollar restrictions, Russian were still living good. Imagine now that Europe and others are buying Russian oil and gas in Rubles.

It's why they love fighting poor rag tag militias without satellite imaging, so that when their billion dollar equipment get destroyed, they'll not be able to prove it. No photo evidence.

Some time in the last 48 hours, ex SAA soldiers neutralized HTS terrorists around Damascus.
Second operation after the first in Latakia.

One time is an anomaly. Two times is a coincidence. Three times is a pattern.

HTS outlets are blaming UAE and Maher al Assad (he is close to UAE, used to be fervently pro-Iran) for the Damascus protests.
Iran demand HTS arrest and prosecute the killers of an embassy staff (the staff is Syrian) who died after his car was shot at a week ago.

I guess the party is getting started.

Funny I was just about to post it.

Something big is coming.

Al Pronouni or whatever the fvck is his name, has no idea what's about to hit him.

⚡Nearly 40% of US fast attack submarines are in repair or awaiting maintenance as shipyards face a shortage of workers and and supply chain issues, according to a new report from the Congressional Research Service.

Of the 49 fast attack submarines in the Navy, a total of 18 are either in depot maintenance or awaiting maintenance, known as idle. According to the report, that number is significantly higher than the Navy target of 20% of the fast attack fleet undergoing maintenance and zero submarines sitting idle and waiting to begin maintenance.


Bloomberg was first to report on the number of submarines that are out of commission.

The last year the Navy was under its target rate was in fiscal year 2015, when a total of 10 submarines – or 19% of the fast attack fleet – were either in or awaiting maintenance. Since then, the number and rate of submarines out of commission has steadily risen to its current high of 37%. The number of fast attack submarines in the Navy has also steadily declined from a high of 53 a decade ago to the current fleet of 49 subs.

⚡An alliance of agrarian countries is forming in the European Union to prevent the killing of European agriculture by Ukrainian imports, and it will have to fight lobbyists to do so, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has said.

"Ukraine's accession to the European Union - if things continue as they are now - will simply kill Hungarian agriculture, let's not argue about it. It will be possible to simply close up shop. And not only in our country, but also in France.... And there are those who want to make money from Ukrainian imports to Europe, such people must be fought, such people must be pushed aside and a timetable must be worked out that will save Hungarian and European farmers," Orban told a press conference.
