Benefits and a house. Taking all the jobs. Didn't stop at the first safe country. Still the moaning at BLM.

    Double standards eh? or plain bias towards colour. I hear parts of Ukraine are Nazi influenced.

    Before you all try to attack me, I do care about those schools and hospitals that have been attacked. Innocent lives taken the way they have. It makes me sick that in this day and age this would happen. Yes we should be helping. I’m not trying to be an opportunist here to take a pop at those who have all of a sudden shouting for Ukrainians to be looked after. But we all need to question our moral compass at times. Does it only apply to certain geographical regions?

    I know someone will tell me they are real refugees as compared to those arriving on boats. What about countries like Yemen who have been bombed relentlessly to the point of being decimated? Where’s the outcry for them. Like i’ve said before our MSM only amps up the volume for only what they want to tell us.

    See where you are coming from Regis but the USA can’t police the world no more than the U.K. can take in everyone. Where are all the neighbouring countries with wealth such as Qatar, Kuwait and the UAE helping these people? Qatar are happy to host the World Cup and they hardly need more riches!

    Putin is a mass murderer who is targeting civilians like animals with woman and children killed. More of a shock that it’s on our doorstep in Europe in a cosmopolitan city. The Ukrainian president can hardly be a nazi when he’s Jewish.

    I get not having a no fly zone as it will become WW3 but Putin will not be brought before the war crimes tribunal anymore than West Brom getting promoted this year! How do you stop Russia and China?

    Honestly don’t know what the solution is but the West/Government create their own problems - it’s not news breaking that the Russians and Chinese have been money laundering for years in London! More pressure should be placed on neighbouring countries to deal with Yemen and Afghanistan that’s for sure!

    Seems like this conflict has given Boris a get out of free jail card! Whilst the world is corrupt there is no solution. Makes you think would Ukraine have happened with Trump in power? As much as I don’t like Trump if the Russians wouldn’t have invaded - then why?

    On times like this the have nots suffer with hugely inflated prices and women and children get massacred. At least this has shown Putin for what he his! I can’t see how the West can deal with Putin again or reverse the sanctions unless it will help someone’s pockets - here lies the clue!
