Description

In legislative elections held between 17th-19th September, Vladimir Putin's United Russia party won another parliamentary super-majority, with the rest of the seats filled by parties who are (to varying degrees) loyal to the Kremlin. In regional elections on the same day, United Russia won most of the contests. We're joined by Dr. Ben Noble of UCL to breakdown exactly what the elections mean in a context which is so uncompetitive and what this contest means for the future of both Putin and the opposition.
