WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THIS? "ROYAL BABY IS ANOTHER BLOOD SUCKING BRITISH MONARCH WHOSE BIRTH SHOULD NOT BE CELEBRATED"

Vladimir Zhirinovsky, 67, says he is not happy about the birth of the new Royal baby. The leader of Russia's Liberal Democrats warns that the highly celebrated baby will 'suck Russia's blood' in the 21^st century and should therefore not be celebrated.

His reasons amongst others include: King George V was first cousin of Tsar Nicholas II and has been blamed by many for the downfall of the Romanov dynasty in 1917.

Quoted in the International Business Times, he said : 'The British monarchy... destroyed our state.  Today, our opposition activists are there, so that's why there's no joy.

'That is why the birth of another British monarch, who will suck our blood somewhere in the mid-21st century, cannot bring us any kind of happiness.'

Russian's official response however, was more positive, with the Kremlin congratulating the Queen and welcoming her new great-grandson.

Hmmn! I smell………..I’m afraid I don’t know what I smell.

 The British and Russian royal families are linked via King George V, who was first cousin of Tsar Nicholas II, whom some blame for the downfall of the Romanov dynasty in 1917.

Tsar Nicholas II was ill-prepared to rule when he inherited the crown from his father and eventually abdicated in favour of his brother, Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich.

The Provisional Government then took over, effectively ending the Romanov dynasty's rule over Russia.
