Interested to know who your comments are aimed at, I’ve only see one post siding with Putin in this thread and I’m guessing that he would only call someone comrade if he was taking the piss.

The man is worse than devious, the theatre he has created proves this , he won't blink an eyelid when the bodybags start returning to the Motherland.

They literally have posted a video of her speech (quite refreshing actually) and you are shouting at the messenger.

Diane Abbot is spot on

Re: Ukraine Conflict Getting Very Close

Simple solution:
Russia joins NATO.

Re: Ukraine Conflict Getting Very Close

for anyone still labouring under the idea that Putin is in any way reasonable, there was a thread on twitter a while back listing some of the people the Putin regime have had murdered, mostly journalists that were thrown out of a 5th floor window or similar.
it was absolutely chilling, in not only the sheer number of them but the relatively minor level of transgression that will get you killed under this regime.
I'll see if I can find it again.

No chance.
Better off standing up to the cretin and his disgusting regime.

What will stop Russia is Germany and Europe putting up more forceful barriers , 40% of Europes gas is from Russia surely its bargaining chip although it seems Germany doesn't want to upset thier cosy gas supply deal, they are by far the biggest user of Russian gas .

Re: Ukraine Conflict Getting Very Close

I must have missed something here but I cannot recall reading any details about these so-called devastating sanctions that will be imposed on Russia if they invade Ukraine. What does Russia depend on the West for? OK we buy their oil/gas but surely that is a huge bargaining chip for them not for us - they can simply turn off the taps and accept the loss of revenue I suppose. Countries like Germany will be on their knees to them within days if that happened. As for the UK, Scotland could stop sending Scotch whiskey and Wales could stop sending Felinfoel Double Dragon ale and Caerphilly cheese I guess which would have a huge impact I'm sure.

I have heard that the Russian oligarchs and their agents, subsidiary companies and front men tend to hold most of their money in bank accounts, properties and companies in the west - and that going after them in that direction will have a srious impact on their wealth.
