    I believe that martial law is supposed to end mid May. Will he hold elections then or say more martial law is required? If he says it is and it past his term would it be a dictatorship then?

    Then do the same questions again but on Putin

    Didn't we hold the '45 elections when we were still at war with Japan? But yeah, your point is valid, and I wouldn't be surprised if we declared war on someone (preferably without nukes) before Jan 2025 if the polls don't shift soon.

    <doh> Well done, you managed to quote the wrong post.

    As I am “economically inactive” at the moment, I would be quite happy to have UBI but I am not sure how that would be funded in a virtually bankrupt country. We had fifteen years of free money from the Bank of England and look where it has got us. The UBI experiment in Finland did nothing to improve employment levels.

    The firing squad would be a better option for the slackers as they contribute nothing to the system that they want to pay them to do nothing. It would also free up loads of property that would help with the perceived housing shortage.

    That's a challenge for Liz Truss and Tufton St. I'm sure they could rise to it if the Spectator and the Telegraph get their way again. :emoticon-0138-think

    The government will probably declare war on homeless people, refugees, anyone on benefits, the environment, and basic human decency.

    Oh, hang on, looks like they already have…

    You don't know what Martial law is, do you? They may extend it, it's not down to Zelensky to choose.

    Putin fakes his election results.

    We could maybe attack Andorra or the Faroe Islands. Anyone else would batter us.

    The parliament voted for it . He signed the laws to extend it.

    the Ukrainian constitution doesn’t allow elections during martial law

    Yep as I said, it's their constitution, he didn't impose it.

    Mindy reads Russian propaganda and has no ****ing clue what's going on.

    We threatened Spain a few years ago. Their horse archers would have taken us out in 2-3 days.
