Russian bloggers complained that the British press did not notice their pranks and accused the West of a lack of freedom of speech. Most likely, the blocking is connected with an attempt to play a prank on former British Foreign Minister William Hague.
The YouTube video hosting administration has blocked access to the Show Wheel channel, which was created by Russian propagandist pranksters Vovan and Lexus. This was reported in the Telegram channel of the show.
A sign on the “Show Wheel” channel says that access to it was closed due to violations of the community rules. The content posted by the channel has also been removed. The official message from the administration of the video hosting indicates that the blocking is related to the publication of a video with a prank on former British Foreign Minister William Hague.

“We kept him [канал] for our Western audience. This time, Great Britain and Lord Haig did their best. Apparently, the louder the revelations of officials sound, the faster they try to cover them up. And the British press, as if on cue, does not notice the fact of this conversation. “Freedom of speech” in action,” the propagandists complained.
At the same time, pranksters continue to publish videos on their Telegram channel, as well as Russian Vkontakte and Rutube.
Who are Vovan and Lexus
Russian pranksters Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov, known under the pseudonyms Vovan and Lexus, “became famous” online thanks to political prank calls to politicians and various celebrities on behalf of other famous people.
So, in November last year, Russian pranksters Vovan and Lexus, on behalf of Emmanuel Macron, learned from the Polish president the details of the missile fall in Przevodovo.

In July 2022, Russian pranksters spoke to the famous American writer Stephen King, introducing themselves as President Vladimir Zelensky. During the conversation, Russian bloggers thanked the United States and, in particular, the incumbent President Joe Biden for their assistance to Ukraine.
