War with Russia

[MrGrumpy]

He’s probably not far wrong to be fair , we all hope it will be much quicker if those with some power turn on Putin. Unfortunately A power vacuum maybe worse if Putin was to be removed!

After Russian blocks twitter facebook (and just about every other independent modern source of info, e.g. many RUS news outlets have given up):

Watch 'Threads' for your answer.

Actually, don't. It's utterly depressing.

Adding to that, they have introduced a new law, which punishes ''misinformation'' about the Russian army with up to 15 years in prison. So they are not just ''giving up'' they have to because you can't report if telling the truth lands you in prison.

Good spot

Not my spot but somebody posted it and I knew exactly what it was.

I can confirm that, as of 1948hrs, Sheffield appears to be (mostly) still standing.

Visa and MasterCard have stopped all overseas Russian payments.
So Russians can no longer do any transactions outside of their country.

Poor russians, others have the ''dark web'' and ''crypto'' to do it anyway or have just bought a other nationality so they get all the perks on their cyprus/maltese/madacagque passport with an reassuring eu seal around it. Amazing what the EU can do for you right?

Our Churchill-esk PM the one that really doesn't party when the elderly lay die-ing because of his mis-management, has made a 6 point plan to defeat the evil Putin.. What can possibly go wrong?

That's just a little while after our complicit blind-eyeing, in helping to finance this murderous invasion right.. ??

But as with all these things that make a few folks lots of money - like the arms trade for example. .??

If we didn't do it - someone else would right ??

I'm old enough to remember a time when saying something as stupid as this would have wiped the person saying it, off of the political map forever.

Nowadays this will boost Trumps ratings in some quarters. 😶

To paraphrase someone else who responded..

"He thinks like a 5 year old ....

With apologies to 5 yr olds"

There is little doubt that the UK is easily bought with a little bit of Russian money, and the Tories, although not the only ones, are first in the queue with their hands out and their eyes turned the other way, but not far behind them must come the ordinary 'salt of the earth' Chelsea football fans who yesterday, in a minute's silence to honour the dead in Ukraine, decided it was more appropriate to chant the name of Abramovich. Morons, the lot of them.

Ah yes..

'Commercial football' that well known repository of political nous, and moral upstandingness 🙄
