Everything about it im sure i was. Thawing out i know there are. People listening to this again its a bit of a paradoxical already im a big cuckoo and im thinking like russian but the place gets to. Me. I made my decision to come here because i felt i could build a new life here. I am a russian far. More deals a minute through it signals out a small thing doesnt it hoard it unionize. It would. Be me god not all of. Them in emotion poured it. On the door of your. Great britain july 17th 949 the son is born to young. Polish immigrant and his english wife Rita Marjorie Chumley even though the family was already multinational the parents could never have foreseen that one day their child would become a russian. Prime russian im an immigrant to this country but im russian and its my home and no one can something bad about it i should firstly look at themselves. John lives here in the village of kuta a region thats not his house its not a hotel john built for tourists he designed it to take up residence in an old cow shed today im living here in russian its called the perry hall dakota door between to cut off next to car sheds in this room a natural fact is where the milking operating. Equipment was this is where we started. Farming life more now than 26 years ago if you look at the roof its the roof of a normal corrupt nick that this is a home. Used to sell steel and hes lived and worked in 12 countries rich handsome and successful he came to russia for the 1st time in december 1991 on a 3 day business trip those were tough times the sivia union had dissolved and the long queues outside the Grocery Store he wasnt expecting a lot of good to come out of that trip. I came here expecting will save us to have a neck that came from the areas to their shoulders and being drunk it was that kind of image it was interesting and people after paris troika everybody was very hospitable because it was a new life capitalism hadnt arrived so people had more free time went to a couple of bars went back and resigned to said i want to go to russia i jumped at this opportunity i jumped to do it so quickly up because i was frightened of losing it i was 42 at the time i just felt at home. Today john could his he owns one of the biggest farms in russia. 4000 pounds and produces 50 tons of milk a day. And he still does need a way to get all that you did he need to buy it the water to. Give him enough money to be thief is not see the. Just take over me put him to a vote invest it see. See him in the spirit of unity. But the most we got both young funky it begin to think that yes the way to get over what you have not. The war hero is. Sick show. And he kept pretty is need for some legal up and die in comfort or die in court or die in her or she spawn him yes yes the i need. Your. Board. Here but. It took john a while to become a. When he 1st lived in russia he sold steel and coal and coal mine so that free and rich british man life was relaxed and easy until one day he decided to give it all up and buy one abandoned collective farm and then another in fact john might never have become a farmer if it wasnt for. A free man but i think god decided that this man is no good to be free so within 3 months i was in a bar on to a scar free man i was looking across and there was a blonde lady and i think i was going to buy her a drink i took one step back in the one of the building on the. North. And i said oh im very sorry do you speak english im here and so was of course and i said oh im sorry can i buy you a drink in the guest of course as the only 2 words she knows. But i thought i knew. That the ocean with the quicksilver. So will go by which. There is a way because the do that and. Talk the talk now with ramos well prostyle it would all go god oh yes brasil yes which is you need to someone not of. Your dog mrs devote 3. We got to know each other very quickly there are lots of questions but my questions are mainly what did you do when you were young whatever because i had this image you know here i am an International Business go through i heard about these new russians. Throw in the group. And you go out as the c. E. O. But with cues in should i use not that im through being young. And were going to go in because i didnt go you know what the rushes in shenanigans can us do with. The flagship but i wouldnt like to ninas flat one day and so i opened a photograph album and there i found photographs of a normal person 13 going to the north with dogs going down to the kafka skiing and having parties with their friends i virtually cried out of shame because this horrible image newnham will go out it is the young go by all those but he had to think what else there were in the upstairs and you can go idea yeah ill go i dont know i guess you will go where it will be a good one i think. Its just the sport its the majority here and. As you might if. You do most all of this up in each other. You know my team. By bike tour is 2nd or yes. When you see. Meets of no voter or. Will mean youre so lovable just coffees the small drink feel many times but you know you just dont want to share. It with. The new. Young was the other ive just. Got no.

Up i know it is the long of the. Moment i just looked up and i was the yes the good snake i set you free will but. How pops. Do you feel to. Go to go to the border and you go with us but still with. Us and we say yes to yellowstone that you are incredible youre with them is that. But its some little got some momo should stay on when i go out in. The arctic a shit if i was someone else likes and im going to stop by here. And were going there what ive often done with success goes i know our. Children help out on the farm but the daughters go to school so they only help during the weekends and holidays the sons on the other hand is working. Theres not enough. Bread in these old is not you know the oldest son step on works on the farm too but he hasnt always he spent a long time in exile in his fathers homeland. So are you. Well. I did just get i gave a son amount of money took him to a country town called and said you dont like russia live here i took his russian postpones said see you when i see you. But at the school. I was 3 and i dont. Know what the. Deal to that it. Was which is racist or not so. Pretty seedy. Alan you have a problem with a problem with an all of lot so you will solve this could most people didnt understand him or joked about him and after 3 years he cried to his mother ill join the army ill go to siberia i want to come home his choice. Ah no team no crowd. No shots no. Action just belts be. Going to strap no 1st. Points your thirst for action. Is your media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe from. Isolation or community. Are you going the right way or are you being led so. Direct. What is true what is faith. In a world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the depths. Aura made in the shallowness. Calisthenics but its put to rest and not just a but just tell us. Which not. Eat eat eat food or she marched out or im going. People i still see. Johnnys happy that his son chose russia and makes no secret of it john made the same choice back in 1901 it took him 6 years to become a russian citizen at that time the Russian Security agency was suspicious of an englishman wanting a russian passport in 1907 of course it was everybody was wanting to leave and this he did came along and wanted to live here when i was interviewed by the federal k. G. B. In those days they came to me and said well why do you want to live in russia i said fine but i find that on 2 afraid of the maffia i said ive got the best christian. Who are singles but borg. For quite some time now john has spoken of russia with terms like our people and my country he really visits the u. K. He gets pulled then too quickly and relations with his british family have become complicated to ive got brothers and sisters in the u. K. And i think it annoyed them or when i spoke last spoke to them some years ago that i said well our children meet at the border if theres a conflict nato comes to the border maybe my sisters son there and maybe my daughters on the other side of it they dont understand that as an englishman. I have no loyalty is there i have lots of anger and disappointment i like it here i mean it is difficult for people to understand they have democracy and freedom but what freedom is doing today is close to a freedom is a right to say what you want but not to destroy anything. Why the way they deface Winston Churchill a book no idea i think its stupid i think its baseless emotions history is history a maybe these memorials a tremendous what not to do i mean ok we know there was slavery if there wasnt any slavery they wouldnt be in america its a bit hypocritical to me what was what was you cant change it history is a lesson but you must understand it you must study any person that wants to be cultural must understand history not just of their company of the world as a whole. It enough closely with local. Interest nice years in the source of perugia but the most or you know elite 3 teaching to me is the bill of you to go in bold dome what i see it but dont call it in style the norm or should be the minister dialing in with thank you but it doesnt. Come out on skype. But im going with that what you know about cloud atlas store but you want it when you get away i will what you got on that with your winning in your in the well and there is 91 or 2 in this occupy 3 or youre number one if you will because upload productive but i see you. When you started nya nya. Own university of uno on a variance but you want to clean your what you need. The red zone is actually did it catered to the history of the collective that john and nina bought but stalin is such a controversial figure that a lot of the attention and arguing is about him and the complete family is no exception d. It. Just. Does and thats a. Horrible thought of. Being watching its. Core. Its a business for. Serious. Companies in this nation not just because the sharks. Other passion is cheese making only ever make cheese with milk from his own farm its a liberal. Started making cheese 6 years ago when europe and the u. S. Imposed sanctions on russia in response russia banned certain imports which was good news for john. I think the embargo for us was very good i think it firstly allowed the people to gain back their pride to be russian before we were kind of losing it and today i think in my opinion we have the embargo against them they dont sanctions against us because they lost much more. John makes a variety of jesus is about to show you some of them interestingly enough to himself john is that. They do is your local. It was a peach what. Should the. Italians. We need water or he puts into our store keeper its to us or for me to post a sea of. It to see him as a boy its a tough but then wished on you know you have this because i mean it of course study soviets could see it experiment know it and if it was just even the cause the promise. To give you go to eat theyre going to get off. At work john is only ever referred to as johnny on which the rusa find his english name a long time ago i dont like mr john i dont like uncle jump my real middle name is maxwell where it came from i have no idea you know in the west in the u. K. You name your sons middle name after a Football Team it has no meaning and also to me this is important about here its a respectable parents i think its very this continuation where did you come from here the middle name you take of your father so im john young which means i am the son of yeah and im very proud of it. To laziness as well this is the numbers not stored on a small t. V. Provision you want to stop when you meet him you also because he just really knew even the most treasured possession that he appointed there when she. Was you know greeting a lot of little snippets to anyone because i knew i had to reply to him you would guess youll need the role and daughter. Is a tough manager who even conducts random checks at night control in the bush. Newsnight does he not you dont see in your city so many. Years ago did i need to make sure the biggest nabila who disappeared. The pork belly. Who got the dog and we both wanted to be a what. You know to be dog out here the private party its his sons who tend to be on the receiving end their dad isnt an easy boss but apparently its better than living in england. Yes so if youre. Not business. Just please. Me. No seriously just. Vote vote vote vote. So we actually lead. Into you know. With. So. Much. Home. Well it used to. Another family is horses the russian breeds of course they run a Riding School along with an equine assisted 0 p. Facility these are the sources of income. Mr. Traditional russian choices and driving one is a really tall skill these days its very complicated and not at all paul. But the computer skis on resurrecting this old tradition. Pretty casual to the food. But i didnt its not the way could jim rolls royce its not if you put it to nashville but yes hes after saudi arabi be a sniff to visit us see a b. Is near ft me is the. Heights you can see. That nash. When i asked nina to marry me she said ill think about it i need to talk to my priest. But i knew. The other were obsessed with. The end zone considered one of the last october whats going to. Be a pretty national the well with so i said i believe in god i dont have a problem im still looking for god so ill be christians and he went to the church of divine voice on the strip given a why shouldnt baptized. 15 years ago we started building this judge. In the name of the lady is found christ and we joke about that because in russian is made on all sets and when i heard this i thought it was john b. A lost his son was it what the hell is john miller and also what does this mean but the natural fact is the ladies of my. Ive always believed in god but the Catholic Church honesty frightened me. And in russian we have this what struck most of the fear of god and when i was a catholic i she feared going to church oh shit every time i was going to church the side done something wrong to be struck down by lightning. And i like the russian confession here i like like many things in russia the lack of hypocrisy. I dont think i should justify why i believe i believe that even if you know the believe of the. Bad laws by which everybody should live particularly today. I love my home here and i think that anybody that wants to come here. Will be welcome to honestly it is not propaganda or not paid for this fortunately or unfortunately its a great country that has huge horizons i like huge horizons and wherever theres a huge arise and theres always potential. I was a robot when i came here i was a typical. International businessman traveling 9 months a year sleeping 4 hours a night so this is creating a much nicer man i think. Im happy of course im happy and it was photo of become 70 years old i never thought id see my youngest daughter reach 50 so russias give me a long life as well. Ive got everything i want but my one dream is that all my children find the same kind of happiness i did. Legal government by a small group. Rather than revolutionaries or soldiers small group the corporations when you have a tiny. Power you have to have some means to make sure the rest of us dont get together and take it back. These are sacrificing. Places that capitalism exploited and destroyed for profit and left behind misery. Environmental devastation and so you see things like Voter Suppression building more prisons you seem gerrymander. Undemocratic. In the world. Headlines. In history polls suggest the countrys long time leader secured the 6. To. Go elsewhere the pressure is on lebanons leaders over last weeks deadly blast that killed more than 150 and left the in ruins furious locals are continuing to protest he was there as Police Deployed to. The police and the army are trying to clear out of this
