Unfortunately the Americans have two bad candidates in Bidden, who is clearly suffering from old age and dementia and Trump who has paranoia.

Just sums up the American system when only billionaires can become presidents.

Say what you like about our system in the UK and Wales. Anyone of out MPs and Senedd members can become leader.


Hard to disagree with any of that
It shames America

No British PM would do that because they would be voted out of office.
Putin doesn't have any fear of that.


Putin is not worried about being voted out of office However in Russia if the movers and shakers are unhappy with you there are many other ways of removing him.

He was confident enough to take a flight the other day. Mass conscription is not popular in Russian Federation either especially as this was sold as a "special operation" not a fight for survival. Presumably soldiers are returning to the families and telling the truth about how bad it is.

Putin is very popular and has the support of the people.

It's not in any way a fight for survival. They are well on course to defeat and degrade the Ukrainian military

I somehow doubt it. It was supposed to be a "special military operation". Most people think of those as lasting 2-3 months not 5 years or more.

Ukraine is now digging in. RF is fighting field by field and losing a lot of men and equipment. RF can no longer use ships or aeroplanes near Ukraine without huge risks.

They cannot even take the Donbass.

Except for all those thousands who marched against him, yknow, those marches he had broken up by his security forces and all those people who were snatched and locked up.

People like Alex Navalny, arrested and locked up for daring to stand for election and criticise Putin, he got so popular Putin faked up charges and locked him away for 30 years. There's new charges too, I wonder what he could have done since he's been locked up.

Of course there are those who oppose him, every country has those, it's the basis for democracy. Russia has a population of 145 million, a few thousand is irrelevant.

As for locking dissenters up, just look at Israel and the thousands of Palis without trial or charges in Israeli prisons, the US with Guantanamo bay too Assange didn't fare very well when he was unlawfully detained by this country either

Russia has 100,000s in labour camps and imprisoned without trial.

Not to mention the state execution of dissidents by poisoning or falling from tall buildings.

Not a great couple of days for the Russian Federation. Heavy damage was inflicted by multiple Storm Shadow hits on a military airbase north of Sevastopol, and then yesterday the Black Sea fleet missile corvette Ivanovet was sunk by marine drones. The videos are all over Telegram.

We're talking about Russia so don't go with whataboutery.

It's not just a few thousand either, it has been very many thousands in towns and cities across Russia, that's why he changed the laws and made it so any dissenters could get 15 years in prison, 8 years just for calling it what it actually is, a war. He calls it a war himself now though.

This degrading of Ukraine's army, surely giving convicted criminals a pardon if they join up and go to Ukraine is a degrading? It also looks a tad desperate.

The troop shortage has become even more acute so that Putin has had to go a step further. The pardons after 6 months service have ended, and the now the prisoners are only offered normal conscription contracts. Not so attractive given the "meat wave" tactics being used with conscripts..

A ragtag Ukrainian army using NATO surplus kit has fought a Russian army many times bigger and better funded to a standstill, so the idea that a conventional conflict between Russia and NATO would last more than a couple of weeks is a bit bonkers no matter how much extra they spend in the short term.

The West is at least a decade ahead in terms of spending and technological capability. About the only thing Putin still has going for him is nukes.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Because that was never his intention. Maybe start with asking yourself why the US & UK are so keen to keep Russia out of Ukraine, that'll be a good start.

Well Russia tried but over 17,000 hours later Ukraine is still standing and Russia has been appealing to aliies for help, giving convicts pardons and paying Nazi mercenary groups but still they cannot flatten Ukraine.

Hmmm, its almost as if.....nah. Or maybe...nah. Possibly, Mango, are you absolutely bonkers?

Honest question, why do you think that Russia could take Ukraine in 24 hours, given the evidence? Why do you think after over 17,000 hours Russia is still bogged down in Ukraine?

The Initial Russian attack was with 30 to 40k troops. Do you think that was enough for any attempt to overrun the Ukraine? Of course it wasn't, they would have needed far more than that. It was never their intention to do so. They want the Donbass, Luhansk areas. They have cleared them of NAZIS and degraded the Ukrainian military. It's a job partly done.

Once the Ukranian military is defeated they will have a de militarized neutral country between them and NATO. It will take time, but they will get there
