Like Newcastle United Nah obviously the government could sell it to responsible custodians. It’s just a case of keeping the money out of that bastards pocket.

Tom 14011 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Meanwhile Liz Truss is given a long leash to start World War III by proposing UK civilians join the Ukrainian forces. Which is actually illegal under British law and has been for about 250 years. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 9775 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) Borussia Dortmund have stripped former chancellor Schröder of his honorary membership because he is refusing to step down from his positions as a board member of Russian companies like Rosneft.

If you think they get equal treatment in general I couldn’t agree less. A canny few on the other side including the PM regularly cause diplomatic incidents with their gaffes / ignorance / arrogance. It’s not remotely on that scale. She’s an irrelevance anyway but she regularly got slaughtered when she was on the shadow cabinet for minor things. In the run up to the last election half the stuff the Tories were putting out were deliberate lies and got less attention/ criticism for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30602 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I mean you have Nadine Dorries as Culture Secretary deciding on the future of Channel 4 who didn't even know that it wasn't in receipt of public funds and Diane Abbott, a Labour backbencher, who had a simple slip of the tongue. They aren't comparable unless you're a massive racist... Craig. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 A good friend who’s reasonably ranked in the British army hasn’t spoken a word about this entire thing. He was in Ukraine for 6 months last year & evacuated when the number of Russian troops dramatically built up last year. He’s normally quite vocal on anything political so I can only assume he’s absolutely shitting himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
