Two pieces of news came together in a striking way. Izvestia reported that the Federation Council was concerned about the dress code for domestic senators. The couturiers involved in the process have already developed preliminary recommendations - what can and cannot be worn by the upper chamber, God forgive me. At the same time, the media report that, unlike their colleagues from the Duma, senators from the International Affairs Committee preferred to discuss the law against orphans without witnesses. The MK correspondent, who spent several minutes at a closed meeting, heard the amazing speeches of the head of the committee, Mikhail Margelov: “Unlike the relevant committee of the State Duma, which has long no longer had a working relationship with the relevant committee of the House of Representatives, we have with Joe Biden, who is vice President, and with John Kerry, who will be Secretary of State, the committee has excellent personal and working relationships... The Federation Council has legally established relations with the US Senate, permanent working groups of the US Senate and the Federation Council - we work in this format and, I hope, will continue work. We have been a chamber of professionals who will continue professional contact with American legislators, and this will probably continue.” Translated, this means: the guys won’t shake hands with us later. Let's get out of this somehow. Thus, if in the Duma they are happily swimming in shit, then in the Federation Council they are not delighted with the prospect of immersing themselves in the substance produced under the leadership of Mr. Volodin. And there will be more and more crap. Therefore, a senator’s work suit must include rubber gloves, an apron and canvas overalls. In general, everything a goldsmith needs.
