Russian invasion of Ukraine

I understand the sentiment but those bags are real lives lost. Nobody of relevance wins in this, just a narcissist and his backers who want control and money.

HMG need to do the right thing.
In times of war the lives of men don’t matter, only the objective matters. You only remeber the dead once the war has ended.

In the meantime, you hope for as many dead as possible on the other side.

War is cruel and not like normal times. It sounds horrible but there’s no sentiment when it comes to war.
 
Well he will be moved on as well then in that case. This demands pressure and if he can't , or won't, or is compromised then he will go. When the shit hits the fan, the establishment sort it. Billionaires losing money hand over fist is the way to solve this, as Biden knows and as G7 leaders know. Can't do it, get replaced for someone who gets it
It will be interesting to see which, if any, of our media take on the Lebdev link with Johnson. The son of an ex-KGB bigwig entertaining many of our government.

Germany spends nowhere near the 2% minimum that NATO members are supposed to spend on defence and hasn't done any serious fighting since WWII. They hide behind offering a peace keeping 'service' whilst expecting top tier NATO members such at the U & UK to keep them safe.

The German military was constrained by the Allied powers after WW2 in terms of scope, ie purely defensive, and in size. There is also a strong pacifist sentiment in Germany.

On the whole, I don’t think Europe is overly keen on seeing Germany rise again as a military power.
