It’s the Polish that are responsible for that policy.

Makes sense with their hard kine right wing government

Chamberlain is much maligned, his reputation trashed, primarily by Churchill. But we were in no position to help Czechoslovakia in September 1938. Shit! We were in no position to help Poland in Sept 1939, but we bought a year of preparation.

Thank the lord for the channel.

I don't think he'll get banned.

People like him, or Russian NHL players or Mazepin will have to compete under an IOC flag or something.

Definitely pressure on Mazepin to get banned.







Don't know what the ATP or NFL will do though.

So why are Ukrainians considered genuine refugees, but Syrians not in your eyes?

Has he said that?. I voted leave as I wanted a controlled migration policy similar to Australia. Anyone fleeing a war zone is a genuine refugee. whether Syrian, Iraqi, Ukrainian or Afghani, should be welcome to our shores.

Absolutely, so it comes down to whether people agree with the motives and intent behind them rather than just solely on the actions themselves. And as you said, some people might not like that when it comes to the UAEs (or others) position with this.

Quite a few videos going about on social media of black/asian people getting booted off trains in Ukraine. Dissapointing if these are accurate.

There's video of Indian students getting attacked by Ukraine soldiers while trying to get out of the country.

Aleksandr Sergeyevich Golovin is a Russian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Ligue 1 club Monaco and the Russian national team.

They going to ban him as well?

Enough already, racing drivers, tennis players, footballers, they're journey men.

Honestly not sure where sporting organisations will draw the line. Mazepin supposedly has links to Putin but I've not read up on it.


In regards to Golovin, depends how much pressure Monaco (the football club) come under. Prince Albert has frozen Russian assets in the region:

Id be very careful with this. Russian celebs and sports stars abroad are one of the very few sections that are openly critical of the actions in Ukraine and get huge exposure in Russia due to their social media feeds. Casting them off not only reduces the likelihood of those individuals feeling empowered to do the same, it enforces the anti west resentment.

I get it with the national team, individuals is different though.
