We live in interesting times.

All the pasta and toilet rolls Oofers have stockpiled will come in. All we need now isto practice building a shelter under the kitchen table. Actually that needs updating as most folk eat their mac and cheese watching tv.

Once I've dropped off a few gifts etc today I will be spending Christmas in the bunker anyway  :D

Global thermonuclear war should disinfect plenty of Omicron ,delta etc  :y

Obviously the remaining Covid will mutate with the radiation  :D

I saw this on tv yesterday. When his spokesman said that everyone would be reduced to ash, I wondered if he'd told people in Moscow this, so that they didn't waste their money on Christmas presents.

I suggest that Putin and the Tory tubster have a bare knuckle fist fight. Winner takes all.

If Bunter wins there will be no invasion of the Ukraine. ;D

Maybe I`ll survive the first strike & even if I try to quickly learn some Russian; don`t think I`ll fit in somehow

According to the missus my boat race is somewhere between the Ukrainian & the Jew on their ethnicity chart  :-\

All the while Sippy Cup is in charge (oxymoron alert), Putin has a carte blanche to do whatever he wants. And he's basically got two years to get done.

Putin said some very interesting things in his news conference. He feels they are being hemmed in by the west and the build up of additional forces on the borders are leaving him little room to manoeuvre.  Russia lost the most, over 20 million people in WW2 and they promised it wouldn’t happen again, He must show he is strong IMO.

Yes, and I can personally see his point of view. Without the Soviet Union, who some historians calculate it is up to 24 million that they lost in WW2, China losing up to 20 million, the allies could easily have been defeated. The conflict would have lasted far longer and Hitler Vengeance / Retribution weapons would have been developed to such a point that they regained the upper hand.

The UN countries must do more to work with Putin to avoid conflict which nobody, including Russia, wants. I believe the West owes Russia enough to try and accomplish a compromise. 2022 cannot be a 1939 German situation for Russia.  The Ukraine cannot be another Czechoslovakia. If it becomes it, World War will follow :(

Interesting item on bbc website about military spending. Russia doesnt spend much more than Britain. India spends a lot but nowhere near that of China. US dwarfs everyone. Something like 770 billion to 70 odd billion for Britain.

Maybe Putin has a point or maybe it is just land grab in action.

Don't read too much into those figures... Russian wages are a fraction of those in the US, and in China, labour is effectively free.

Yes but the USA military budget is mind blowing by any standards 👀

Yes, and that is the way the USA will play the military defence game all the time it is the leading World power.  They are determined not to be caught of guard again as they were just over 80 years ago.  No doubt they are fully prepared to deal with what Putin may be planning, so God help us all when the diplomacy runs out! :o :o

Sippy Cup couldn't defend his position on ice cream. He hasn't got a cat in hells chance of stopping Putin from invading anywhere... In fact, he'd probably pay for the fuel. :-X

He’s just a pawn... a puppet..         https://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgflip.com%2F51glda.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fimgflip.com%2Fm%2Fpolitics%2Ftag%2Fjoe%2Bbiden%2Bpuppet%2Bobama%2Bmaster&tbnid=927DKzH4-jf-iM&vet=12ahUKEwj24uX44__0AhUTmhoKHZXgDVIQMygBegUIARCAAQ..i&docid=7qx7k4r1Vi5I5M&w=500&h=674&itg=1&q=joe%20biden%20puppet%20meme%20pic&hl=en-gb&client=safari&ved=2ahUKEwj24uX44__0AhUTmhoKHZXgDVIQMygBegUIARCAAQ

          Which makes him even more dangerous.
