Just wait 'till China kick-off. They've amassed more than 6,000 nuclear missiles for a reason you know. Interesting that our enfeebling culture of self-hatred is ironically called 'progressive' ..And all the Lefties on here thought they would be running the Gulags, they'll just be inmates now :) |  | | |  |

Putin an embarrassment Biden an embarrassment Johnson an embarrassment most of the time but not in regards to the Putin situation Macron an embarrassment The only president or Premier showing true courage and commitment is the Ukrainian president..who for some reason the British media and Red tops like to remind us he's a comedian at every opportunity...I mean what the fuk is that all about. |
Biden, Johnson and Macron are part of a co-ordinated Western response of military support and sanctions that is so 'embarrassing' that Putin is already playing his nuclear cards. There's only one enemy here. It's really not that difficult. |  |

| The Price of a feeble US President on 13:34 - Feb 27 by Chesham_Saint | I’ll have a dig at any IRA supporter, as amongst their many, many atrocities I’ll never forget that poor lad in Warrington who was blown to bits whilst out shopping on a Saturday for a football kit. I despise Corbyn and his common room politics giving the likes of Gerry Adams tea and comfort. He might as well have French kissed Myra Hindley. That said, I been careful not to decry Keir Starmer, so this isn’t an attack on your beloved Labour Party, just on one Useful Idiot. |
You are of course fully entitled to your views although the hatchet job the right wing media did on Corbyn clearly worked. There is a huge difference between being mates or supporting someone and working towards ending the things you talk about. As for my beloved Labour Party, I have only voted for them twice in my life, so something else that you misrepresent. Corbyn had his faults but he did what he thought he could for peace. You don’t seem to worry so much about the way the Tories have cozied up to unsavoury characters and regimes from Thatcher through to Johnson, anyone is welcome so long as they swell the Tory Party coffers or party members bank accounts. Still, it really doesn’t matter about Corbyn any more as there is a new leader of the Labour Party and as he is the only person who is in the position to do something to chsngevthecwaybthis country is going, yes, the Labour Party under Starmer have my current support. |  | |  |

Johnson was way in advance of Biden and Macron in regards to calling out Putin...I think you and sogs were berating his rhetoric and behaviour..meanwhile Macron assured the EU that his mate Putin wouldn't attack Ukraine..meanwhile sleepy Joe hid in the shadows..there's a reason the Ukrainian army are singing God save the Queen.. You have a short memory it would seem. |  |

I think Cummings take on all this is probably spot on. That the UK had a choice between Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn at the last election is the real tragedy. Chesham has been consistently against Corbyn for his IRA links for as long as I've been on here. And I can understand his sentiments (I was driving past Warrington and you can't see that name and not remember the two children that died). I personally don't see Corbyn as a bad man, but, much like his crazy brother, just too rigid in his thinking, too set in hard left views, and basically lacking any intellectual humility. And I'm not going to slag off Johnson at this time. We are relying on him now, and he has my support. |  |

| The Price of a feeble US President on 15:09 - Feb 26 by Saintsforeverj | The point being that if Biden was the humanistic, democratic, caring person he said he was, he could have changed the plan that has left Afghan people starving to death. Trump planned it, Biden agreed with it and carried it out, so he is no better. The result is a very dangerous group in power, starving its people to death. Now I'm watching another very dangerous dictator, taking over a country, tanks driving over innocent people, Putin threatening to blow us all up, if we intervene. The response was absolutely nothing to that threat. With the Taliban in power, China and Russia reigning strong, it's very dangerous times I think. But you're right, surely there are better options out there. America a huge country! [Post edited 26 Feb 2022 15:17]

Biden's logic for the Afghanistan withdrawal was that he was aiming to focus all of the US resources on combating the major strategic threats of China and Russia. This particular part of the game has not played out yet, but so far, it doesn't look very promising. However, Putin's timing was probably based on the fact the USA haven't yet got their ducks in a row. |  |

There is no perfect human and there certainly isn’t a perfect politician. I don’t disagree about Corbyn’s inflexibility and he certainly didn’t appeal to the floating voter, but he did have a strong following. Like many initially I bought into demonisation of Corbyn initially. I have a very old friend who I haven’t seen since 1964 but we reconnected a while back through FB. He is a staunch left winger and every time a negative piece appeared in the media he would post something on FB to give the other side of the story. The amount of bs printed by the Tory press was staggering. They certainly did a number on him. I would add naivety to inflexibility because he played right into his opponents hands and didn’t bother to fight the accusations. Starmer is cut from different cloth and knows what he has to do to turn things around and appeal the middle ground. That doesn’t sit well with the far left and he will have a bigger problem dealing with them than Johnson. He has shown a better political brain than both Johnson and Corbyn and would make a far better PM. It’s a shame he wasn’t the Labour leader at the last election. He would not have won I don’t think as too many wanted to believe the Johnson/Cummings rhetoric, but the Tory majority would be much smaller as he wouldn’t have alienated so many of his own voters. The situation in Ireland was appalling but the IRA were no worse than many outfits across the world fighting for whatever cause they believe in. Sadly conflicts such of those appeal to and attract a certain type of psychotic person who carry out atrocities in the name of an agenda. As someone famously said though, fighting for peace is like fu cking for virginity. We need more pacifists in the world and fewer warmongers. Atrocities have been carried out by terrorists and by state terrorists for ever. Children are still being killed by bombs. If watching Martin McGuinness having tea and a cozy chat with the Queen on the 6 o’clock news is part of the price to pay to stop that madness, why not? Corbyn did what he did to try and end that madness, whether you agree with his methods or not, the end surely justified the means. |  | |  |

Why would he do that? You sound like you have been brainwashed by the Daily Mail. His comments on Twitter don’t tally with your view “Russia’s shocking invasion of Ukraine will inevitably lead to more fear, misery and death. It is a frightening escalation of the ongoing crisis. Russia must withdraw its troops and return to diplomacy. If it does not, dark days are ahead for Ukraine, Russia and all of Europe.” [Post edited 28 Feb 2022 13:17]

I would say that the biggest threat to Western democracy after Putin, would be the re-election of Trump in 2024. For all his talk of patriotism and democracy, he is cut from the same cloth as Putin and he will attempt to finish what he started on January 6th. Putin destroyed the shoots of democracy in Russia. The US would be a harder nut to crack, but Trump will give it a good go. People in the UK and the US need to wake up to the fact that the threats to their hard won freedoms are very real and they do not come from wearing masks, 'woke' talk or cancel culture. All that stuff is one massive distraction (in no small part encouraged by Putin's information war). |  |

They were not faultless by any means but they were bl**dy decisive and Putin would have thought twice. The west is full of weak leadership at the moment and Russia and China are using it to their advantage. Add into the fact that the USA aside, most western European countries have run down their defence commitment to dangerously low levels. |

| The Price of a feeble US President on 13:05 - Feb 26 by DorsetIan | Interesting. I came today to see if I could spot the sort of anti-West comments that I have been hearing about. Sure enough, this thread. Those right-wingers who are using the psychotic acts of a despot to criticise the ‘woke’ West are a disgrace. Trump would have sold Ukraine down the river at the drop of a hat. And to think these same people had the gall to refer to remainders as traitors. You couldn’t f*ckin make it up. And for what it’s worth, this may be one role that Boris Johnson is suited for. As was said above, Ukrainians seem grateful for the UK’s response to date. I may be wrong, but I do believe that Johnson is genuinely committed to liberal values in a way that the likes of Trump and all the other c*nts who would much prefer an autocracy are not. |
A sterling defence of a feeble self-hating wokeist dominated western culture that thankfully amongst all this horror has led to us getting a wake-up call to finally defend western values and drop self-destructive Marxist green agendas. Let's hope it's not too late, even for our favourite bug-eyed commie Dorsetian |  | |  |

Such fine, sophisticated waffle. You're not fighting for freedom, you and your ilk never were. You're simply doing Putin's bidding. Gullible armchair (feet up) foot soldiers in his information war against the West. Perhaps try harder to understand that. It's really not that difficult. |  |
