RUSSIA is being mocked for claiming Brits are living on cat food and selling sex amid the living costs crisis.
A stony-faced pro-Putin newsreader trotted out the laughable propaganda on state TV.

“Because of rising costs residents of Cardiff are now eating cat food, and heating food on radiators.
“And British women are resorting to prostitution, and are having sex in order to survive, so sex for food and heating, sex for survival.”
Social media users mocked the report.
One wrote: “My cat got some fancy 100 per cent chicken cat treats for Xmas, will try one later.”
Another replied: “I ate some cat biscuits as a kid, not because of lack of food, but you know, kid things and curiosity . . . I’ll bring them round and we can have a slap-up meal.”
One joked: “Not true at all . . . I was eating it out of choice.”
The claims are thought to have originated from a BBC story last month and been exaggerated for Vladimir Putin’s propaganda war on the West.
