Zelenskyy simply and accurately explains why giving up the Donbas won’t end the war: "Putin says he wants the Donbas, but why, at the start of the full-scale invasion, was he trying to occupy Kyiv? Is that the east of our country? Is that the Donbas? No, that’s the capital.

“We're not hanging around for another decade of broken Brexit Britain.” Scotland shouldn't have to wait another ten years for change. The ambition is to build an independent Scotland, back in the EU and making its own decisions.

Don't get me wrong, I like Zelensky, the leader of Ukraine, but he is part of a team. He doesn't make all the decisions himself (unlike Trump & Putin). We should be in awe of the Ukrainian Parliament. Let's get back to democratic basics?

Just think about this for a second, Yes I appreciate that housing refugees is a costly expense for any country, But we did used to get money for it from the EU. But it's the narrative from the elite that conditions the poor to believe that we are losing out in preference for them. #ShiftingBlame

Here's how Capitalism works. Netflix made a record profit this year, $426,000 per employee. So they fired 1/15th of their workforce who helped make that profit. To make even more. The system needs to be destroyed.

The damage he has done to his own people and to Ukraine must never be forgiven, or the spineless nature of thsioe who let him do it. Musk too must be held accountable. His entire empire needs shredding and breaking up, his citizenship revoked. The people of America and Ukraine deserve justice.

he likes while acting in the office of President. He will never face the consequences. Even when he dies - if there is no accounting in any afterlife - will he ever face what he deserves. Its my hope that whatever it is he did to America in physical form is torn down and everything about him erased.

TRUMP & ELON MUSK ARE MURDERING UKRAINIANS #ukrainianview Let's be in no doubt, on Trumps orders ballistic missile warnings have been stopped leaving hundreds in harms way. Civillians died last night because Trump let it happen. Musk slowed Starlink down deliberately because Musk disagrees

It was eventually put in the public domain, but after the elections. It said there was a real chance for SNP winning large & independence. But it also said that due to many English buying property & settled in Scotland, the desire for Indy would naturally die out. This needed to be kept hidden.

Any previous American President would have been impeached and jailed months ago. This weird man is unstable, perverted, dishonest, greedy and supports countries that are playing him. He is the cause of much that is wrong in the world just now. Our family refers to him as 'The Devil Incarnate'. 😡

TWO MORE GRAIN SHIPS SUNK IN BULGARIAN EEZ And still the Bulgarians refuse to say Russia did it because they have no evidence, despite summoning Russias ambassador for a chat. Both ships were Ukrainian owned. Russia is being very strategic attacking them in this area. Bulgaria is sympathetic to

It is from the perspective of incentives extremely counterproductive to allow Russia to export more FF and protect its infrastructure, because it will motivate Russia all the more to keep the SoH shut. There is always some outfit to be found to fly a drone into a ship if there is the threat of peace

THERE WAS NO ENERGY PACT Trump invented it, neither Ukraine or Russia knew about it and Lavrov, Russias foreign minister actually said that Ukraine didn’t deserve one. Even so Ukraine on Trumps word didn’t attack an oil refinery that night. Trumps bizarre statement is simply self aggrandising

Zelensky: "When our strikes reached Yandex’s data centers, it suddenly became a little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. A lot of people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, and fewer provocations. Because there were fewer bots. It’s pretty clear where those bots were."

I feel like crying just now. 😢 The news about Trump & Putin, the genocide by Israel, & the inability to help Ukrainians & Palestinians is just too much today. The world is spiralling into madness, hardship & hate. So why are people surprised about rising mental health issues among young people? 🙏🏻🌎❤️
