You're right, I oversimplified.

The key term here is isolationists. Regarding our topic – the question whether NATO is an automagically reliant deterrant – Moscow does not need to control the UK as a puppet state, it suffices that they promote isolationism to a degree that the UK would not intervene into "domestic matters of Latvia".

Yeah except the fact that the isolationists aren't going to win the election, so what they want is irrelevant.

There's always going to be isolationist groups in every country but their existence can be ignored unless they are politically relevant, and this lot are about as politically relevant as any other random fringe party.

That's great to know. Thank you for your assurance. I hope it stays this way.
