The leader of the Leningrad group Sergei Shnurov joined the Growth Party. This was announced at the party congress in St. Petersburg by the party chairman Boris Titov, writes Fontanka. “It seems to me that I’ll be useful to you for sure. At least I’ll make bright colors. I will call a spade a spade. It will be clearly more fun with me,” Shnurov said.

Sources of the Open Media publication reported that the musician will head the pre -election list of the party in the State Duma election. Shnurov was asked to be admitted to the party at the direct instructions of the presidential administration, the newspaper writes. Officially did not announce this. “The plans are still in the plan ... maybe there is, or maybe not. We must survive to these elections,” Shnurov said about participating in the elections to the State Duma.
