It makes Ukraine the good guys over the invasions of their territory by Russia because, as I remind you, just 2 or 3 years ago, the extreme right managed to garner less than 2% of the national vote. It is a peaceful country (unless attacked) moving swiftly to a fully democratic nation.

Up until he became Foreign Secretary, Boris Johnson was vehemently against supplying arms to the Saudis for use in the conflict against the Houthis. The day he became FS he was handed a dossier detailing what a Houthi victory would mean to the civilised world, and immediately back-tracked on his position (not like Boris to do a U-turn
) and authorised further arms shipments to the Saudis....
