    Sky Aus hits the nail on the head, as usual.

    “Obama, Biden and the woke West are to blame for the inevitable fall of Ukraine”

    “Donald Trump made a good point when he said Russian dictator Vladimir Putin would never have started this war while he was President.

    Putin waited till doddering old Joe Biden had replaced Trump in the White House before he resumed the Russian expansionism he started under Biden’s old boss, the previous Democrat President, Barack Obama.

    Add to that the indulgent environmentalists who have made the West energy dependent, and the feeble identitarians who dominate the bureaucracy and public policy in the West, and you have a recipe for endemic weakness that ruthless murderers like Putin recognise and exploit.

    Eventually, Ukraine will fall.

    And the West will be too weak to do anything about it.”

      UK continues to cultivate British soft power through major institutions like the British Council and BBC World Service, and retains the ability to drive global action through its memberships of international organisations like the UN Security Council, the Commonwealth, and NATO.

    The ‘poor woman’ victim heart-string pullers have started already from the BBC.

    ‘BBC Ukraine editor: There is no safe place anymore’

    This is absolutely typical of the lefty-luvvie wallowing in self-pity. She is only concerned about one person : herself. It’s those who are defending the country who she should be worried for. We would have surrendered in 1940 if our country was full of BBC-type people.

    ‘The countryside may be safer than the city, but in a country under attack from north, east and south, there is no truly safe place here any more.’

    Try going West love.

    It’s fairly clear to me what will happen now. Russia will take control of the country to the East of the Dnieper river and the fighting will stop. I expect there will be very few civilian casualties.

    They have done it, you wouldnt belive it possible but the BBC have spun the invasion as akin to British Colonlism and of course subjugation of BME people by the nasty British.

    Kenya proved to be a dedicated friend of Ukraine,” the European country’s ambassador to the East African nation has said following Russia’s invasion.

    Earlier this week Kenya’s ambassador to the UN, Martin Kimani, condemned Russia’s aggression – seeing in Ukraine’s current “situation echoes of our own history” of colonisation and the threat of “new forms of domination and aggression”:

    So its our fault. No mention of Germany (Left Wing Fluffy Greens) enslaving 20 million Europeans less than 80 years ago.

    I dont know whats going on in thier Anti British, Anti Male, Anti White, Anti Christian minds…..

    Its a time to get together and show some bollocks to defend a nation where even the hostile views of the life most of us want to lead are accepted without resort to violence.

    We moan about Democracy but it works………..

      It appears that Clive Myrie’s number one concern
      is to let us know that he can pronounce KEEEEEEEEEVE
      correctly or anyway how the Ukrainians pronounce their
      capitol. Well capitol maybe for a few more days.
      The KEEEEEEEVE reminds me how Riz lateef , Asad Ahmad
      and the rest of the London programme presenters pronounce
      Torys as TOREEEEEEEEES.
      Actually it is rather worrying to know that Putin intends
      to nuke us if we interfere with his war on Ukraine. But much
      more important than all this. I think Zenit St Petersburg , the
      team Putin supports and bank rolls will get a result in their
      UEFA match in Seville against Betis this evening.

      In the Corruption Perceptions Index 2020 Kenya is ranked 124th out of 180 countries for corruption, tied with Bolivia, Kyrgyzstan, Mexico, and Pakistan (least corrupt countries are at the top of the list).
      Kenya is a lower-middle income economy. Although Kenya’s economy is the largest and most developed in eastern and central Africa, 36.1% (2015/2016) of its population lives below the international poverty line. This severe poverty is mainly caused by economic inequality, government corruption and health problems.

    All those harmed by war whether black, brown or white.
    Wars happen in Africa all the time
    often unreported
    lots of other places like Yemen, and Myanmar have ongoing fighting
    BUT this is a huge step by Putin
    No Russians were going to suffer if he’d held back
    and now he’s taken some action there will be quite a lot of harm.
    I really don’t know where this going
    Could it be his Afghanistan ?
    In his attacks on Georgia he did bomb the main country, but only held onto small ethnic Russian areas.
    Now he was building a new big trade road into Georgia.

    ‘Why are black Americans being punished for their hair?’

    At the same time, people with albinism have also been ostracised and even killed for exactly the opposite reason, because they are presumed to be cursed and bring bad luck. The persecutions of people with albinism take place mostly in Sub-Saharan African communities, especially among East Africans.

    The British medias priorities in the recent past
    – Mask fanaticsm, that we are EVIL if we don’t wear masks wherever possible
    – Green fanaticism, that Britain is EVIL if we don’t rush into greendreams, if we dare to open a coal mine to supply the raw ingredient for CARBON steel
    – Partygate obsession, that the leader of Britain is evil, cos he may have briefly been at some parties in his garden.

    Do they think, Putin has sent soldiers wearing face masks. driving electric tanks
    and firing low carbon missiles ?

    I’m surprised that the bbc has reported something without comment. Poland, Hungary and Slovakia (There may be others) have all announced that they are setting up reception centres for refugees freeing Ukraine, and that such refugees are more than welcome. A quick peep at Wikipedia reveals that Ukraine is approximately 97% Christian,or no religion (Irreligious). Of course if you stick your behind in the air five times a day and your hobbies are raping white girls and killing infidels, then you’ll find a happier welcome in France, Germany, or better still, grate britain. Vladimir had better watch out; we’ve got candles and flowers and we aren’t afraid to use them.

    MS: Oh, no. I think when you have a representative of the United States government, our emissary to Sudan, saying that cookies work with nations as with children, in other words, when he says cookies, he means like chocolate chip cookies, he’s saying explicitly, you can’t even parody this, that the United States government has a kindergarten approach to the world. It thinks of rogue nations in the same way it thinks of little Jimmy being naughty in nursery school, and you give him a cookie, and his behavior will improve. Well, sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn’t. But for a grown man, not just a grown man, but a man supposedly representing the last grown up government in the Western world, to say that in the middle of Sudan as genocide is unfolding around him, I think communicates to the planet that this is a weak horse, that President Obama is the weak horse personified.

    In other words, you’re risking life and limb as a mere token gesture when the battle is already all but lost.

    Just watch, because after this Putin is likely to go for Georgia which has been angeling for NATO membership as well.
    If he does then he will also control the gas pipeline from Azerbaijan, and when you look at the location of Georgia it is no surprise than Putin would be uneasy at that country between Turkey & Russia becomming effectively an enemy military state.
