Middle class teaches glueing themselves to roads etc We are seeing a big European democratic nation invaded and seeing potential slaughter Yet, no British Pippas and Tarquiins on the streets ,no precious footballers shouting it from the rooftops FIFA refusing to ban Russia from ALL football permanently . Cry for Ukraine Maybe it’s because they are a “ white” nation and seen as right wing . I’m sure the virtual silence is no coincidence |  |

I feel so angry right now None of our token waving hypocrites are showing support for a sovereign nation nearer to us that some holiday destinations . Kids made homeless ,men and women fleeing . These are refugees ,not those that turn up on our shores in dinghies Fact is , everyone is terrified of Putin. Where are the left freedom people now ,those concerned about liberties . Police /State brutality ….Think about that when we see what is unfolding in Ukraine right now . The left is supposed to be more concerned about the people of the country so where are they now . I believe every football ground should delay every kick off by five mins and see applause and support for Ukraine people |  |

Corbyn's gang Stop The War have been almost completely silent. Should finally confirm even to the most obtuse that they are, and always have been anti-West/Israel rather than anti-War. [Post edited 26 Feb 2022 12:12]

Corbyn and the likes of Owen Jones seem intent on deflecting the attention elsewhere, it's unbelievable. Starmer seems to understand that a sovereign country has been invaded. [Post edited 26 Feb 2022 12:33]

You should see the spirit/bravery/defiance of these Ukrainians, its something to behold, absolutely staggering! Just caught a news report and the people are signing up for the army in their droves both women and men. It showed women making Molotov cocktails, they were grating up polystyrene to be put into petrol bombs. The Russians have entered into a hellhole occupation, Of course in this country? It's more mind your pronouns! |  |

I completely agree with your first two paragraphs but I’d be a little more cautious with the last sentence. I can think of a country involved in this war who’s particularly ‘anti-woke’, not hung up on pronouns or transgender and I’m pretty sure wouldn’t have a female football commentator. They’re not the good guys. |  | |  |

It’s a good example over how much more politics is polarised in the US compared to over her. All parties in the UK remain subject to criticism it they have pulled together thankfully. Remember, Tucker Carlson is an opinion jock. He’s in it for the ratings not the politics. |  | |  |

I would contend that is not true. The British have division and class bred into them. We send young kids away to Boarding schools and keep them separate to ensure division i manintained. This means those labelled "working class " often grow up with chips on shoulders. Many hate success and wealth here.In America ,it's respected and seen as admirable. Here ,they are deemed posh/stinking filth really. |  |

It is and yes no problem. As a general point for all-please try to support independent vet practices. Corporates are taking over and it’s very hard for young vets to take over practices as they are priced out. It could see the end of small practices for pets if it carries on. |  | |  |

Yet it was the tories who gave British citizenship to all those Russian multi millionaires/billionaires who have been funding Putin. Ffs get a life. Easy to blame someone who has never been in power. |  |

I'd add that many men of that age crossed the border before the announcement and upon the announcement they returned to Ukraine to fight. |  |

You don’t think it’s true that American politics is more polarised than here? Our politicians have been pretty much universal in their support of Ukraine and condemnation of Russia. The few who haven’t have been slapped down. The US have gone straight to points scoring mode. That’s not a dig at Republicans, it would be the same the other way around. Interestingly I’ve never known anyone go to boarding school. It sure if that’s unusual or not. |  | |  |

They’ve been using his clips on Russian television as part of their propaganda! I’m not sure they’d use Ant and Dec but never say never 🤣 He’s backed down a bit now but it’s a bit late to be honest. [Post edited 26 Feb 2022 15:01]

Indeed. I don’t think any of us know how we’d react in that sort of situation. I’d like to think I’d stay and fight but the instinct to flee and survive is also an overwhelming one. Let’s hope we never have to make that choice. |  | |  |
