It is Ok as a non-Ukrainain to want peace, but if you are seeking to dictate what the Ukrainian people must give up for that peace, I think you are overstepping.
For better or worse Zelensky is the leader they have until they have the security to resume regular elections.

It would be extremely convenient timing for the Trump Administration if diversity was found to be at fault for the Mid-Air Collision over the Potomac last night.
A bit like when in 1933 the Reichstag was burnt down and they found a communist to be at fault.

Finally watched Civil War, Firstly it wasn't what I expected. Secondly all the reviews I've heard gave me no clue.
It did have meaning, I'm just not sure it was the meaning people wanted. And I'm still not sure if I liked it.

For all the hysteria about Grooming gangs over the past 10 days, very little practical was offered by the loudmouths in the Conservative Party or Reform UK.
They haven't even created a petition, that's how I found this petition which calls on Mandatory reporting by volunteers and Professionals.

I'm beginning to realise that the majority of people don't understand how Government works? Especially in the UK.
Politicians direct, Civil Servants do the work within their own departments.
They also don't seem to understand the role of the Executive particularly the Prime Minister.

It is true that large public companies inevitably and knowingly lay themselves open to close scrutiny of their acts and, as in the case of the businessmen and women who manage them, the limits of acceptable criticism are wider in the case of such companies.

Politics for me has been a bit Richard Curtis this past few days.
From the Historical Child abuse accusation, in Four weddings, George The Boor against Bufty.
Then to Love Actually and the realisation "Sam" is now married to Elon Musk's ex-wife who probably in turn told Musk about grooming gangs.

I have full empathy for any Pensioners that are afraid of the cost of heating this winter in the UK. But I am MEANS testing my sympathy by a simple question "Did you vote for Thatcher in 1983 and again in 1987?" If you did why don't you "Tell Sid" all about it.

The UEFA Nations League really is pointless to elite level players adding hundreds of more minutes of gametime into a season that particularly for those contracted to English Premiership Clubs is just too long.
