The UK isn't doing so well, when did it become so ultra authoritarian as to overtake Russia? Even number of arrests for social media comments online?

Please explain how the UK is now more authoritarian than Russia; a country that rigs elections, disappears/assassinates political opposition, and invades neighbouring sovereign nations to ethnically cleanse them?

so you want to wait until it beats Russia in all authoritarian metrics before acknowledging the problem?

Yes, and then ideally wait some more while i masturbate about the problem. And ideally bit more until i die of old age sucking this sweet delicious boot.
