because Putin can do nothing right in their eyes

Putin has invaded Ukraine to take two bits of territory he already had.

Yeah right! That makes sense.

But while you're focused on this we can slowly and quietly make Covid disappear like it never even happened.

UK has started Phase One
of New Sanctions.


Johnson PM
is to speak in Parliament at 12:30PM

Russia is having a nightmare with covid. NO new hospitals have been built since 2008, unless you know someone or bribe someone you cant get to a hospital.

This Ukraine malarky stops Russian people realising how fckd up their glorious country is.

this isnt just about ukraine, this is about retaking all of what was the soviet union. There will be a fairly large section of the population in favour of this because they have been indoctrinated since birth that their poor standards of living are all the fault of the west

I think a lot of people in the west don't understand how serious this situation is

I've been reading Watchmen recently, and one of the subsubplots is how people are worried about WWIII because of Russia's attacks on the 'Stans.

Would any of those old enough to remember the 80s say those goings-on did make it feel like war was imminent?Did it feel the same then as now?

Yes Alf
Putin can soon turn the Gas off,
once he invades.

I love the Watchman Film
and the TV series

the soviet union was on it's knees in the 80's so not a realistic threat. The late 60's and 70's were very dangerous times

Pathetic

Olaf

has Halted Nord 2 Gas Stream from Russia.

good man, i wondered if he would go through with it.

Yes
Olaf said he is going to import Hydrogen from other nations.

I'm not old enough to remember however the Soviet Union (pre-80's) was a legitimate global power in a way that modern Russia is currently not and I imagine the looming whisper of nuclear war was quite worrying throughout the Cold War era.

However.

You then have to factor in that the internet did not exist in any meaningful form until the late 90's, and mass adoption of everyday internet use/social media until later still, so people weren't as "immersed in the news" as we are now. I think that must make a huge difference. News used to be scary when you read about it and then you could put it to the back of your mind. These days it just pops up to whack you in the face again every 2 minutes. Which is actually really unhealthy.

Presumably everyone knew that would be a possibility and have made contingency plans ??

Germany has the Big change
as they Halt the Nord 2 Gas Stream that was to be Direct from Russia.


No Direct Gas from Russia.

[Germany's Olaf said he is going to import Hydrogen from other nations.]

Hopefully we have made adequate provisions for any and every eventuality.

I bet we start reopening coal mines !!

In Parliament

Starmer wants RT HD Ch taken down.
He backs the PM




Virgin media has already taken RT HD off their Channels
a long time ago

We get the majority of our gas from norway, we are not reliant on russia at all

Thats not right
we get 5% from Russia.



[Russia only provides about 5% of the UK's gas supplies,
so it's less reliant on Russian imports than other European countries.]

On this link

5% is not a reliance

Excellent .. just their ‘new’ prices to be concerned about

Sure
But it is still 5% of Russian Gas.

Yes in April
some will have their prices Doubled.
That is shocking

But where does Norway get theirs from??

...the ground...

That made me laugh

Shell and BP
are in Russia.

[BP has been operating in Russia for 30 years.]

[Does Shell operate in Russia?
Of all the energy companies working in Russia today,
Shell actually has the most diversified portfolio.]

The PM has not touched them

I remember when Germany abandoned Nuclear Power after Fukishima.

Putin is Live on Both news channels

He is taking questions from his press

EU has now done Sanctions on Russia



As if Putin cares

A slap on the wrist.

Why not increase the sanctions every day that Russian forces are occupying ukraine?

Didnt work with Crimea why would it work now?
