We've been fed a crock of doo-dah by the Western media regarding the "Russian Bear" and its "Madman" leader. And not for the first time. Sadly it won't be the last time either.
Since Brexit the UK has become irrelevant on the world stage. Outside the EU it clings on to an imaginary ‘special relationship’ with USA.
The UK has a ‘black hole’ in its economy that ordinary folk are having to pay for, and Labour isn’t finished yet.
But so far £12.8 billion has been found for military and non military support for Ukraine, not to mention humanitarian, recovery and reconstruction, sanctions, war crimes and justice support, energy and trade. No such support for Palestine (£99 million from dec 2024, £10 million last year). Now £3 billion annually for Ukraine.
How is it plenty of money can be found to support war in other countries, that we aren’t even directly involved in, but for folk in UK we’re skint?
As you say, if Trump decides to talk to the Russians, the EU and UK will be out in the cold, UK will be even less relevant.
Scotland can do better outwith this failing UK, Starmer, Lammy and co only care about themselves.
Great article.
Putin's quoted speech at then is most telling.

It is highly unlikely that Lammy et al will see sense of their own volition, before being ordered to do so by the US Department of State.
