šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¦ The War/Invasion in/of Ukraine

I’m replying to what Pap said Cobham, he mentioned him not me, I’m replying so I’d have a word with him.

It’s very pro-Labour. Pro right wing Labour.

The fact that you take The Guardian seriously says it all. It has one or two decent writers and that’s it. The rest have spent the past decade or so using their analysis to predict shit and looking like utter fools when reality happened.

You think Putin listens to Johnson? Fuck me, UK allies in NATO don’t listen to Johnson, with good reason. He is seen as a joke, a buffoon. He hasn’t got a clue, if he saw a banana skin on the pavement across the road he would cross over to step on it.

Where have I said Putin listens to Johnson?

You said Putin wouldn’t listen to Corbyn if he was PM,which clearly infers that in your eyes that disqualifies him. Remember when Johnson, the Tories and the New Labour lot were taking the Putin shilling Corbyn was warning the west not to trust him.

Looks like the Russians have fucked up here - apparently TASS ran a propaganda piece about the arrival of this ship and by doing so revealed its location to the Ukranian navy.

If I ran TASS I would be thinking twice about opening the front door to strange people

@Not_Barry , I’ve stayed out of this row on this thread thus far. But I have to tell you that you’re fast becoming the speccy schoolkid taking a proper kicking from the prefects in the corner of the playing fields, and the masters either can’t hear you or don’t give a fuck. It’s not very edifying to witness, and I know it’s your own business, just as long as you realise that The Prophecies Of Scotto I warned you about are coming to pass just as surely as the Ides of March did for Caesar.

I’d be concerned if anyone wasn’t.

I’d be surprised if NATO give any tanks to Ukraine, Ukraine have argued that the Soviets gave the North Koreans air support in the Vietnam War so why can’t NATO give arms and support that way, can’t see it happening.

It’s part of the peace deal sell when the time comes

What’s the point of joining NATO if they won’t help us when we are begging them to

Yes, when it descends into petty bickering it becomes difficult

NATO can’t be seen to be doing anything because then that would give Putin the reasons he needs to start aggression deeper in Europe.

The only way NATO would be able to help would be if the UN asked them to, a la Syria (yes, yes I know)

We know that and Zelensky knows that - but at some point after promising the Ukrainians that they would be part of NATO and the EU, he has to tell them that it will never happen and they will have to be a neutral.

It will be a lot easier to do this if NATO are seen to have repeatedly failed to help out when asked.

Yes I’ve read any part of a peace deal will will revolve around a pact between certain NATO nations helping Ukraine in the event of any possible future invasion, that would probably mean permanent NATO’s bases right on NATO’s doorstep but not on Putin’s.

Yes, it does become difficult when about ten different people decide to pile on Not_Barry for various different reasons.

Thank you, its ok, what I will say to people I do try and keep it on topic, I honestly do, I appreciate that though thank you.

Yep, you can’t please all ten of the people all of the time.

I was only a day ahead of the press.

See @pap gif for his comment

@pap nailed it though :wink:

Seriously, good for him to use his slebrity though.

Edit: Not @pap using his slebrity - (probably more like notoriety tbh)
