@federateuk.bsky.social
To #TakeBackControlProperlyThisTime, level up, to enable PR and play well with EU, UK needs regional devolution - becoming a 12-member UK federation. Remember, give me a follow if you like what I'm saying - there's more where that come from!

If there were no other alternatives, it guaranteed peace and did not stop non-military attempts to win Cornwall back or find those kids, then sure. Wouldn't you?

Well, things happen you know. The future and all that. But that isn't part of the strategy anyway so no need to auto-distract.
The plan is solid. What alternatives are there?

Ultimately, the people should decide and that needs peace. Ukraine can pursue the matter peacefully, they can have their claim. Maybe Russia will reform, they all get a GFA and the issue is not so critical.
But in any case, this is the plan that will work. What are the alternatives?

Before writing off Trump's America, Europe should come up with a strategy.
November 23, 2025 at 8:08 PM
Before writing off Trump's America, Europe should come up with a strategy.
1. Ukraine should stop forcing Russia out of the occupied territories.
2. NATO should offer Article 5 level security guarantees but otherwise stay off Ukrainian territory.
3. Europe should help defend Ukrainian civilian population and infrastructure from Russian drones and missiles.

If Russia really is on the edge, that just makes them even more dangerous. Europe would struggle because it has a bad command and support structure.
NATO is for ever. Trump isn't.
The key thing is to come up with a plan and strategy that will work.

Russia is more powerful than European NATO because they have one person in charge.
That unity is why USA is necessary for Article 5 to work.
No need to break with USA. On Ukraine, what we need is a good plan that will work.

In typical Starmerite fashion, they are trying to cover their arses.
"I will introduce new reforms so police are accountable to their local mayoralties or local councils."
i.e. "Police/Crime Commissioners did not have enough power so let's reduce their power even further..."

There needs to be a neutral force to secure the 2 state borders and deliver guarantees to both sides.
Otherwise Israel will do it and we see the results.
Don't understand why folk aren't talking about this - this is how we stop the conflict - and the Israeli alternatives are obviously much worse.
