    What do you think the response would be if the immigrants were offered British citizenship if they were to join the armed forces?

    I’m not saying that it happen or that I think it’s likely but you never know.

    I thought it went particularly well for Putin.

    He got some important messages across - mainly the one where he stated they have zero objectives/nothing to gain by invading anywhere, least of all Poland, and that Western mainstream media is bought and paid for by the deep state.

    Shame they didn't venture into the delicate area of the 13 biolabs in Ukraine set up and financed by U.S. tax dollars, from which Covid 19 (and others) were developed before being moved to Wuhan.

    It could only work if the immigrants share the same values as we do and wanted to protect our way of life .

    Our own fallen from conflicts went in to battle to protect our way of life and our values and were prepared to make the supreme sacrifice .

    It's very complex with younger generations and it's not really their fault either .

    They've been educated in a totally different way to what many of the older end like myself were .

    The world places feelings before what is actually reality today , an example is taking place in Israel and Gaza right now .

    Israel had it's 9/11 on October 7th last year , 1200 of it's citizens were brutally murdered .

    The perpetrators of this massacre then hide amongst it's own citizens in Gaza .

    Clearly Israel needs to eliminate Hamas , it has to in order to protect it's citizens from further attacks or even the risk of losing its own country .

    It has no option but to attack Gaza in the manner it is doing which means innocent people are dying , it's dreadful but that's the reality and there's no war that was ever won without innocent civilians dying .

    Not everyone by any means but a substantial amount are outraged , perfectly understandable but none the less deluded because feelings have no place in a conflict such as this .

    The whole future of Israel as a nation is on the line and feelings come in to it ?

    Israel is getting judged on western values which are a bit feely today against an opponent with no values at all .

    Israel , thankfully does what it has to do .

    Let me leave you with this .

    Remember the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege in central London ?

    Do you think we'd see the same outcome today ?

    Conscription is a bad idea, there is enough lunatics in the army who volunteered.
    I know.

    Few people understand what the war in Ukraine means for big business. It’s not just the weapons and reconstruction contracts. Ukraine’s vast agricultural lands—among the most fertile in the world—are up for grabs, and American companies like BlackRock are at front of the line.

    And Vanguard. Majority shareholders in just about every ammo business and mainstream media organisation on the planet.

    They brainwash the public into taking sides and supporting wars.

    The deaths of hundreds and thousands of people happen to be very profitable for them.

    Meanwhile in The Houses of Commons the SNP have had a vote for a ceasefire in Gaza with a Labour amendment denied because the whole of the Tory party have refused to debate.

    Can anyone explain this?

    New rules are being set but not for the people but the ones that run the government!

    I know France is lost with Macron but what’s happening to the oldest democracy in the world?
