Ukrainian comedian Volodymyr Zelensky wins Presidency by a landslide

[String Man]

Only an exit poll at the moment, but it's put him on 70% so pretty certain https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-48007487

His campaign looked shaky at times when he was serious, then when he went back to the comedy approval ratings went back up.

Interesting times continue!

Hopefully Tom Walker (aka Jonathan Pie) will be the next British PM then.

Have you seen his interview with Owen Jones? He actually comes across as very sensible!

I hadn't seen it - thank you for bringing it to my attention.

I've just watched the 8 minute excerpt posted in a Guardian article. I won't watch the full interview as I don't like Owen Jones and I'm not giving him an extra view on Youtube Tom Walker is a clever man and I agreed with a lot of what he said about free speech and not driving bigotry underground but keeping it visible so it can be challenged.
