I don't think this is looking good.

It doesn't, but all the war supporters care about is fighting Russia.

The fact that the longer the war goes on the worse for Ukraine is very much secondary for them.

They have been ignoring all the corruption points as 'Russian talking points', even though it's been pointed out that that Russia is just as corrupt.....but that we aren't funding Russia.

The fact that it's British tax payers who will have to pay doesn't mean much....it's the covid mentality.

Zelensky does what he always does. When someone gains in power he removes him. Fortunately not by falling down stairs or out of a window but by moving him out to some low level. Federov is about the Nth "victim".

Yup. Really good. Their trouble is that making those chews into a massive chunk of their defence budget, disproportionately. They should export more, but it ain't a cheap machine.
