      The 5-month-old pro-business Right Cause party founded by Russian metals $18bn oligarch Mikhail Prokhorov, 46, has ousted him...after electing "fake" candidates.
      In turn, Prokhorov has called it a “puppet Kremlin party” micro-managed by a “puppet-master” in the president’s office.
     “There is a puppet-master in this country who gives misinformation to the Russian leadership, puts pressure on the media, and this puppet-master is named Vladislav Surkov,” said Prokhorov.
