  1.  @eugenecrabs8622  in other words, Ukraine is indeed a dictatorship. It is a dictatorship that is justified, you say. well, that is indeed quite a climb down! You started off saying you would supply me with the correct term to use instead of "dictatorship"! Was Britain a dictatorship during WW2, professor? and what are the names of these "terrorists" given shelter by the church? what acts of terror were they convicted of committing, professor?

  2. Slowly but surely the Azov Nazis are being killed, captured or crippled. Liberation from the Zelensky russophobic tyranny has finally arrived for Donbass, and Russia gets Kherson and Zaporozhe too as an added bonus. Slava Rossiyi, Slava Donbasu

  3.  @frmcf  or if you are Christian, or if you got fired for turning up late to work, or if you got an ugly, loud mother in law, or if you got bullied at school, I mean "persecution" takes many forms, right?

  4.  @zzmmz3789  things couldn't have been that great in Mexico pre European immigration. otherwise, how to account for the Tlaxcalans allying with the Spanish to defeat the Aztecs?

  5.  @mochtegerndane7097  and not for the first time in your life, you are absolutely wrong. I am a UK national, Bahamian wife, living in France. yes, cost of living is the most important thing. independence and sovereignty count for nothing if you are poor. and more important than the cost of living is one's health.

  6.  @frenchimp  beg pardon for defending the rights of ethnic Russians in Crimea and Donbass? what world do you live in? oh, i forgot, the world that honors Bandera as a national hero.

  7.  @hugoc2660  no need to send Putin anything. unlike Zelensky, he doesn't beg me for anything. My taxes have only gone to Zelensky. None of my taxes have gone to Putin. learn the difference

  8.  @hugoc2660  sorry, I answered the bit about the money, but not the soul. Yes, Putin very much has my soul. Best world leader by far. Unlike someone like Biden, Putin's academic qualifications are outstanding, his analysis and insight truly impressive, and he stands up for Russians and ethnic Russians admirably. That's why he has so much support, at home and globally. BRICS, OPEC, Latin America, Africa, Asia, all very happy to work with Putin.

  9. all the losers, wastrels and deluded ignoramuses of the Canaries unite to blame those who feed their economy for all their woes. pathetic.

  10. his ideas on regulations make no sense. let the market decide. if people want to gorge themselves on c**p, that's their choice. one of the problems is when the NHS provides medical care for "free", there really isn't much incentive, for the fatties who feel fine with being a fatty, to change any eating habits.

  11. summer forest fires happen every year, always have, always will, the only increase of any note is the number of arsonists these days who start them.

  12.  @a564-c3q  Kievan Rus confirms that Kiev was Russian

  13.  @solomonblack6344  and let's not forget that the Crimean War was fought against Russia, not Ukraine.

  14. Lots of shiny, new EU flags been handed out to the crowd there. I wonder who paid for all that? Georgia's proposed FARA law would reveal the source of such massive funding to undermine democracy in Georgia. It doesn't come from Russia. It comes from the West.

  15.  @will123134  yep, you hit the nail on the head. no one in Westminster has the backbone to say "we made a terrible mistake all these years. all those migrants should be waiting in tents in Calais, at their own expense, for a decision, not in 5 star hotels at UK taxpayer expense" sad state of affairs.

  16. Starmer thinks he can arrest and legislate his way out of this mess. He's wrong. This revolution might be sporadic and protracted, but patriots will get better organized as the Muslim/Immigrant stabbings increase, until general strikes, blockading ports etc will bring Keir Stalin down. He forgot that the British white working class are still the vast majority of the country.

  17. when do you think Zelensky will sell his Miami mansion to help the war effort?

  18. excellent summary. Thanks. I teach Ukrainian students online. Taught in Vinnitsa, Ukraine in 2018. You would be amazed how many of my students, both Ukrainian speakers and Russian speakers, just want Ukraine to be neutral and Donbass to be allowed to do its own thing. It is clear Zelensky is a puppet and NATO picked a fight here. Shameful.

  22.  @damianodonnell5844  Ukraine and Russia are at war, but Poland said it was considering sending Ukrainian men in Poland back to Ukraine. European values really don't extend to caring about sending men into a war zone.

  25.  @DecievedREALITY999  On the updated Freedom Index, UK is now below Venezuela!

  26.  @DecievedREALITY999  As I said, you have not checked the revised Freedom Index since Starmer came into power, nor the index that is based on freedoms cherished by those of us who disagree with the recent laws introduced into Western society. just curious....who are the Gods who determine the value or worth of the many freedoms in any society? why do you believe in such indexes?

  27. oh, but he had plenty of money for arms full of tattoos. looks like he should have forgone that pleasure and planned for a rainy day.

  28. Putin still holds all the trump cards and given that Kharkov was never on his objectives list, Putin is still on course to achieve his aims. Many hawkish leaders in Russia are calling for full mobilization and a declaration of war, let's hope that happens so this can be wrapped up sooner rather than later.

  29. so now, Irish citizens who would prefer to not have their children stabbed to death in the street by imported murderers are "far right"! We can all see why Geert Wilders won the Dutch elections. May Ireland find a Geert asap.

  30. because Hamas would still be intact and threaten Israel's existence. Next question?

  31. it's all richly deserved. this is what you get when you applaud lockdowns, green energy, sanctions on Russia, ballooning welfare state, uncontrolled mass immigration...enjoy every minute of it, UK, it's what you wanted!

  32. his example of Latin America is just laughable. Yes, in Mexico, food and drink is labelled with great big blaring black hexagon warnings. eye catching when you fist see it. so what? the masses still buy it and consume it willingly. they don't care. like smoking in France, packets of cigarettes have scary pictures of people dying of cancer. no one pays attention anymore. many people love to stick 2 fingers up to the nanny state. get real.

  33. These attacks came after 20 years of mass immigration and the tragedy such a policy has brought. Let's check the scorecard, in the last 20 years: Muslims and Immigrants killed by the Far Right = 0 White Brits killed by Muslims and Immigrants = 100+.....our rioting heroes were just trying to balance out the scorecard

  34. this is what happens when governments prioritize Green policies, arms to Ukraine, foreign aid, mass immigration, lockdowns and printing money, more government debt. it's what Britain deserves.

  35. Trump is not guilty. He was found guilty by a Democrat court. Let's see what the appellant court says and then the Supreme Court.

  36. every consumer that applauded lockdowns, green energy, sanctions on Russia, mass immigration, unlimited aid to Ukraine, you have exactly what you deserve. enjoy every minute of it.

  37. Liz Truss had no problem with any of this.....and we still think she has a clue how to end the Ukraine mess? Only Putin has clear objectives and clear vision of how to achieve them.

  38.  @ahhmm5381  Why would a slow, plodding Ukrainian advance be considered something positive given the horrendous losses they are suffering?
    2
  39.  @chriss521  if Russian jets were shot down regularly, believe me, it would be trumpeted incessantly across the Western media. The deafening silence on this subject means Ukraine's air defences are minimal and that Russian pilots are not being shot down. What I am saying is that if Ukraine's best can't even stay alive in training and avoid killing each other, what hope is there for the second string pilots who climb into an F16 and fight experienced Russians?

  40. The problem is, NATO/Ukraine never expected to be in such a conflict over such a period of time, and has not prepared for such. You can't build a military force on the fly. Russia, on the other hand, since 2014, has been aware it would need to prepare for such a conflict, and is executing its war of attrition, just as it did and still does in Syria.

  41.  @TheAArmstrong  you are right. time and money are not the issues. the issues are taxpayers' support in the West (both USA and Germany now see opinion polls where the majority favor ending supplying Ukraine with weapons) and industrial capacity. NATO can't produce weaponry at the rate used up by Ukraine on a daily basis. Time and money are now irrelevant factors. we agree.
    2
  42.  @ahhmm5381  the Ukrainians are not advancing! one village in 3 months is not really advancing, come on! Besides, your thinking is illogical. advancing and taking horrendous losses are not two mutually exclusive situations. Both can, and indeed, are happening at the same time. yes, losses are relative to the other side. I happen to be sure that the kill rate is heavily in Russia's favor. You believe it is the other way around. Strange, though, that the Western press is now starting to report on Ukraine's lack of manpower, agreed?

  43.  @ahhmm5381  you did hear about the opening of a new Ukrainian military cemetery with 400,000 plots, right?

  44.  @martinwood3289  keep in mind, Germany is in recession, but Russia isn't (despite all the sanctions against it). UK has 7% inflation, Russia's is down to 3%, despite all the sanctions against it. if Russia isn't a superpower, we have to start calling Europe the "minnow, failure of a wrecked mini-power, right?"
    2
  45. Sly News propaganda missing the point that Russia has nothing to do with this. The proposed law is a cut and pace of USA's FARA legislation. It's about transparency, and boy, we all know why the EU wants no transparency, or we would all find out the NGO's and protest groups are all paid in euros coming from Brussels.

  50. absolute kangaroo court. the very title of this piece "so, what did he do?" tells you that the charges were bogus. the allegation was that the hush money payments were entered as "legal expenses" to hide another crime, but no other crime was ever alleged! The biased judge even said "it might be tax fraud, it might be influencing an election, you don't have to agree on what the crime was".....banana republic.
