My cleaner is from the Ukraine and she’s lovely.

Cheers.

’Oh Mr Edward. Why you so untidy!? You leave sexy toy in the bathroom and I don’t like that Darren man, he pinch my bottom!'

She’s defo got a soft spot for me.

SHE IS HUMAN AFTER ALL.

Looking at this, the Ukrainians would be no slouch - a large army of reservists and likely to be highly motivated…. Makes me think Putin will see a full invasion as too risky

    bosstrabs Taiwan? I am praying for China to grab the USA! We are ripe for the taking and there is absolutely no way things could actually get worse. I am young enough to make the transition into the new reality. Lets do this!

    Hursty This is highly probably as well, great sources Dave ;-)

    Where did I say I have sources, or suggest it with a comment like ‘I hear that’?

    BlainSA Isn’t Taiwan already theirs according to them? Do they need to grab it?

    Well, it’s a civil war that still isn’t actually over. The Communist Party rules the People’s Republic of China (the ‘mainland’) and lays claim to all of China (the mainland and Taiwan); The Nationalists rule the island and also lay claim to all of China - I think Nanjing (on the mainland) is still their ‘official’ capital, although in practical terms it had to become Taipei because they don’t possess the mainland.

    Homegrove Macron spinning ahead of an election more like. As if Putin is influenced by him.

    This is all just a media blown up circus tbf. Putin has no real interest in invading Ukraine, especially not with 100k troops (half of which are logistics personnel) which would not only be impossible but an embarrassing attempt. While everyone and their Auntie are sweating over an invasion, Putin will just calmly take the Donbas region, which is most likely the real motivation here.
