    Now that Putin has the Orange morons pants down and is in a stronger negotiating position now that he could have ever dreamed of. Where does Europe go from here?

    Keep doing what they are doing, supporting Ukraine.

    For Putin, there will never be a peace agreement unless Zelensky agrees to give up land. Which he has said is unacceptable.

    The fact that Putin has hit energy targets after agreeing to not do so tells you everything about the bloke. Neither he or Trump can be trusted.

    Israel still bombing Gaza and Russia still bombing Ukraine.
    Just another Trump lie that he would bring peace.

    Yet people will still fanatically defend him as they do with the likes of Farage who, in reality, rarely achieve anything worthwhile …

    … it’s all grandiose speeches, schoolboy humour and big promises but no substance.

    Fair play to Labour and Kier Starmer for taking the lead in Europe on Ukraines defence.


    Clearly we are still relevant on the international stage and a big player in Europe.

    Seeing the chaos at Heathrow and trying not to assume that its the Russians again. Given all the reporting this week around sabotage and general hybrid war activity, it's an easy leap to make though!

    There have been a few sub-station fires this year (Grimsby, Welwyn Garden City) but generally they are not very common. Strange that losing one substation takes out Heathrow Airport as it must be served by multiple sub-stations and will no doubt have its own backup generators. :emoticon-0104-surpr
    I'm led to believe that it could be down to a faulty component in the transformer leading to the oil filled insulator exploding
    or something more sinister...

    Grimsby:
    While conducting lines of enquiries, police discovered a suspected cannabis grow inside a property nearby.
    A 32-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the cultivation of cannabis and abstracting electricity without authority. He remains in police custody.

    Abstract electricity, love that. Beats normal electricity.

    Thought there was tires and some flammable material involved?

    If only we still had Boris to sort out Putin, he seems to have all the answers,

    Johnson told broadcaster ZDF: “If Putin was a woman, which he obviously isn’t, if he were, I really don’t think he would have embarked on a crazy, macho war of invasion and violence in the way that he has.‘

    He’s a complete wally:
    There was a world where Trump was president and he was prime minister… incredible

    With every interview and promotion of his book he does he just underlines what an insignificant a rsehole he really his. Hard to believe so many people blindly followed him into Brexit

    A modern day protest song from my good friend in America. He’s scared and angry at how things are going in America and is possibly looking at coming to live in the U.K. which I’m helping him with

    Would love to know what dirt Putin has on Trump and his cronies. Or is this just a bromance between a dictator and a dictator wannabe?

    I think you might be a tadge over estimating Starmers role. The French ,Germans and Poles are the real force with the Canadians coming up fast.. Most see Starmer, especially the Americans, as a bandwagon jumper, thats not to say he has some use.

    I blame the tories for decimating the services and the police, courts and jails. Will take us a several years, if not longer, to get our house in order.
