    @regis mate you can’t be surprised at people feeling sorry for people that look more like them than we do, it happens and it’s not right but it happens
    Also we are conditioned to think of the world as continents with lines which is ****ing weird but it happens again
    Have you seen some of the reports saying we don’t see these sort of things in a civilised place, like the rest of the world is not civilised
    Bias towards people that look, sound, and are based near to you will always happen doesn’t make it right

    And I also think you are right to point it out, as we should all be made to think about our actions and analyse our thoughts and responses that’s how we grow as people and change

    It’s a dangerous old world when Hitler 2 in Russia has hands on the button and likewise old Jo looks like he should be playing French boules rather than delivering news speeches.

    Questions have to be asked why have the Chinese and Russians been allowed to money launder in London for years. I went to the Bank last week and wanted 3 grand in cash and the old bidy behind the cashiers desk had the audacity to ask why I wanted cash - she nearly fell off her chair when I said for the horses and ladies of the night as I was so p issed off with her asking this pathetic question! 3 grand would not go far on a to week family holiday for f uck sake!

    Hopefully there can be a diplomatic solution but the end result surely should be - do not reinstate those sanctions and don’t ever trade with Russia again! Why with the hostility are we also reliant on China and again with should look at other countries such as India or be far more self sufficient!in the U.K./EU!

    I don’t get hypocrites of any description either and if those Russians in the U.K. support Russia then perhaps they should go back there! The thousands of people arrested in Russia for their opinions tells the story of this country. You dare not speak out!!! What a life!!!

    We are we cosying up to the UAE and the Saudis-with weapons sales etc and ignoring what’s going on in Yemen etc. Why don’t the West boycott the World Cup in Qatar until they start helping their neighbours in Afghanistan etc etc. Its alright for Beckham to be the face of the World Cup - why does he not donate his millions in payment to those who need it in Afghanistan? Why should the West ( mainly USA ) keep Getty my involved which actually makes matters worse!

    Trouble with the West there is so much corruption and greed - look at the government with contracts and Prince Andrew ( or k nob Andrew )? We need to look in our own back garden!

    Did not like Trump but would Russia have invaded if he was still in? Not because he was a good president but he’s chums with Putin! I wonder why?

    The only people who suffer all the time are the innocent civilians and women and kids being murdered. The haves get richer and the have nots poorer!

    I feel for the younger generation with two years of proper schooling lost and social interaction missing plus now listening to all the crap going on in Ukraine. Got to the point where I dread my 14 year old seeing the news and used to encourage it from an educational insight of world news and ‘ kindness’ towards every individual of every background!

    So sad BS!
