    Ukraine invasion

    Hi At, I'll play . . . There is some logic to this - albeit warped. It sends a signal to the U.S. and Europe that even though Ukraine has lost the war they can still win a few 'battles' here and there. This enables the MSM and politicians to say: 'look at Zelensky's brave and courageous...

    Ukraine invasion

    You make a lot of good points RT and I agree with much of what you say. With regard to diplomacy, the one (only?!) good thing about the Trump administration is that they are at least talking to their Russian counterparts. That wasn't happening under Biden - which is insane, IMO. Also, for their...

    Ukraine invasion

    Hi RT, I agree, but would add that Ukraine is a victim of U.S. foreign policy as much as anything else. If it wasn't for that and their (i.e. U.S.) continued meddling in other people's affairs the world over - Ukraine wouldn't be in the mess it's now in. Also, if Zelensky had a shred of...

    Ukraine invasion

    Hi RT, Naive, stupid - call it what you will. This is the mainstream narrative and, if it were truly accurate, would be completely fair and reasonable. As you rightly say, France has no business telling the U.K. it can't do Brexit or else war. Unfortunately, this analogy is fundamentally wrong...

    Ukraine invasion

    Good post At'. I'm sure you know the answer to the question you pose (highlighted blue in the quote, above) but, if by chance there are any readers who don't - it's very simple. BoJo, with the backing of Biden, went to see Zelensky in person around March/April 2022 and told him NOT to sign the...

    Yet again RT, I agree with all you say and stand corrected about Portillo and Balls! I don't know how closely you follow the Ukraine war (covered on another thread), but I'm remined of a point made by Col. Douglas Macgregor in one of his weekly interviews with Judge Andrew Napolitano, who asked...

    UK Politics

    Again, 100% agree with you, RT! The problem is: what can anyone do about it? The answer appears to be very little. The French are prone to protesting and, needless to say, in extreme circumstances to revolt. As a nation, we Brits are too placid and well behaved for that sort of shenanigans and...

    Ukraine invasion

    Hi At', Although you and I don't see eye to eye when it comes to the EU, nonetheless, I completely agree with everything you say in this post. The problem that the U.K. and Europe now has is that the war is well and truly lost, rendering NATO completely redundant. Doubtless, it'll go to its...

    UK Politics

    100% agree with you, RT! I suspect Andrew Lawrence (the satirist / comedian in the video) would also agree and would have put out similar content if the Tories were still in power. For the reasons you cite, I'm politically homeless now. I don't trust any party further than I can throw them and...

    Still time to vote in the local elections. Here's two-tier-Kier with lots of reasons to vote Labour. Not! Enjoy . . .

    UK Politics

    In the vid' below, the ever excellent Dominic Frisby sums up the state of the U.K. and, by implication, the state of UK politics. Not all the fault of the labour government, obviously, though there are no signs that things will get better with them in charge and plenty of signs that things will...

    Ukraine invasion

    I've been trying to get my head around what on earth Starmer, Macron et al think they're doing by threatening to send troops into Ukraine. It beggars belief and makes absolutely no sense to me at all. Until now. The video below by the the ever excellent 'The Duran' sheds light on the mystery of...

    Asian Coronavirus Outbreak

    Five Years On, the UK Refuses to Learn the Lessons of the Covid Catastrophe "In America, Prof Jay Bhattacharya, the lockdown sceptic once derided by NIH chief Francis Collins as a “fringe epidemiologist”, is about to take over as NIH head in truly sweet karma. But five years on the UK is still...

    Ukraine invasion

    Hi RT, Zelensky's days as Ukraine's president are numbered and have been for quite a while; certainly long before last week's spat with Trump and Vance in the oval office. Worse than that, unless he's extremely careful and very lucky, he won't have a pulse for much longer either. He's only alive...

    Ukraine invasion

    What's the betting this isn't given any airtime on mainstream media in Europe and, if it is, the likes of BBC Verify and a host of other so called 'fact checkers' will waste no time in claiming there's no truth to Musk's comments and demand that he be hung, drawn and quartered? Needless to say...
