The Russian Defence Ministry claim their forces left Bucha on 30 March, and that footage showing bodies there "did not emerge until the fourth day" when representatives of Ukrainian media arrived.

AFP published images of dead bodies on 2 April, and BBC found videos from 1 April.

In 2008 it was revealed an ex-KGB spy was the right-hand man of Lord Mandelson's Russian oligarch friend, Oleg Deripaska.

Mandelson long defended his friendship with now sanctioned Russian.

@Keir_Starmer needs to distance himself & Labour from the Lord.

Lord Mandelson stayed on the oligarchs Yacht Queen K despite the U.S. already cancelling his visa due to shady business practices.

George Osborne was also accused of, but denies, trying to solicit a donation for the Tories from Deripaska.
telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/…
In a 2012 Libel judgment, Mr Justice Tugendhat found that the billionaire Nat Rothschild had taken Mandelson on an unofficial trip to Deripaska's industrial facility in Siberia, despite Mandelson and Rothschild saying it was purely related recreational.

Polish progressive left party Razem, announced that they've cut ties with Progressive International & DiEM25.

Both unequivocally failed to condemn Russian imperialist & aggressive actions or unequivocally support the sovereignty of Ukraine. freedomnews.org.uk/2022/03/04/fuc…
Both Progressive International and euro-centric DiEM25 are the brain child and pet projects of Yanis Varoufakis.
I believe this quote caused a lot of pushback:

"Unfortunately, the rulers in Moscow, Washington and in the EU, who either caused the tensions or did nothing to stop their escalation, have shown themselves incapable of initiating a viable peace process."
