BREXIT Britain is the “leading power in Europe”, an expert has said, arguing that Boris Johnson is spearheading the West’s fight against Vladimir Putin.
Nile Gardiner, a former adviser to Margaret Thatcher, told Express.co.uk that the UK is “by far the leading power in Europe” when it comes to “responding to Russian aggression”.
