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

???

Well obv not today or yesterday…

Is that one of the Russian demands in the peace talks, then?

If you’re not going to be serious in a serious thread, don’t post Pap.

Some snippets.
High security convoy heads off.
Overseas security screaming at drivers of convoy of Merc Van’s to keep up.
VIP doing 100mph
Van’s limited to 100 kph…:man_facepalming:

Charities putting families up in hotels then as they become available moving them to medium term locations as they become available- Govt buildings staff being moved out as families move in.
Constant flow of urgent requests to drive 9 hours with no money to pay us for fuel or salary or insurance.

Still an amazing operation

I feel huge sorrow for the ordinary Ukrainian people, who are innocent parties in this.

I condemn Putin as a human being. His scant regard for the lives of ordinary people in this war and elsewhere is appalling. I would not make the decisions he has made.

With regards to his leadership of Russia in the context of this insane geopolitical system we operate under I condemn him in as far as he is perpetuating the insanity of the system but I save my deepest condemnation for the people who shape, dominate and abuse this system and their puppets like Zelensky.

Not as a political one?

So no outright condemnation for the invasion, misery and suffering he’s caused?

So you blame Zelensky more than Putin?

You appear to be putting words in people’s mouths and not allowing any other thoughts than Barry-rightspeak

Now this tread is getting tedious.

I am not putting anything in anyones mouths, Donkey said he condemned Putin as a human being, I asked him whether he meant also as a political one, that is a fair question.

If I were to say to you ā€œI condemn you as a human beingā€ would your next question be ā€œbut what about my politics?ā€

No because I am not an invading President of Russia, Putin as a political person would be a very different one from the one that is riding horses with his top off, as an example we can relate to, I can get on with people at work but that doesn’t mean I friends with them outside of it, people are different professionally to when they’re not in work.

To change note I thought Zelensky was superb addressing the house, he is an amazing man, the bravery he displays, in all probability he won’t see the end of this war yet he isn’t going anywhere.

Guys.
Go play debating points on the russia thread.
Try and keep this about news and reports about the war/invasion.

Meanwhile

Ouch

Looking at that thread and the references to Calais in it and it made me wonder what has happened to all the economic migrants trying to get to the UK. Presumably still there?

Wrong season to be attempting the channel.
