Corbyn and Abbott signed a letter a couple of weeks ago criticising the UK for sending defensive weapons to Ukraine, so I do think it is somewhat relevant to the discussion.
I’m not sure it’s about relevance. Corbyn has been kicked out of the parliamentary Labour Party and Starmer threatened to do the same to Abbott and her cronies if they didn’t withdraw their signatures from the letter you’re talking about.
As I said above, speculating about what might have happened without seemingly being concerned about what has happened is a weird position to take.

Getting a bit tiresome hearing these calls for a no fly zone, which is the same outcome as going to war.
... so how do you propose to deal with the lunatic dictator. Your appeasement has failed. Bullies need to be confronted or else they continue to bully. There won't be a nuclear war. There was a very recent caller who phoned in to a media channel and said that Ukraine is not worth fighting for so let Putin have his way. He was probably sitting in Islington. That kind of thinking is the same as Chamberlain & co in 1938 regarding Czechoslovakia - look where that got everyone ...
