Right. Time to shut down all energy supplies from Russia. Time to clean up all this Russian money pouring into London property.

Russia is run by a relatively small group of oligarchs - hit them financially. We're never formally going to war with Russia, so the only way is in the pocket.

Apart from these small separatist regions all Putin wants is a guarantee that Ukraine won't be allowed in NATO and I do think he'll get his assurance albeit through a back channel. I personally think Biden gave the game away when he alluded to the fact that 'small incursions' may well be allowed..

Some incredible calls coming in to LBC tonight. Including one nut case right now.

There really is a poisonous, pervasive minority in this country which will bend over backwards to attack western democratic values, and row in behind the very worst of the authoritarian global “powers”.

Has to declare war. He’s been invaded. He’s gonna lose but he has to do it.

Anything else and he’s basically letting someone move into his kitchen and will have to adapt his life around it

Good point. The British went to spread the word of the good book a few years back.

All very similar stories

Putin wants him to declare war, so he can go on and invade the rest of Ukraine. The west called him out on his plan to create a false flag attack as an excuse to invade so he’s had to go to this plan B

Of course it's shrouded in secrecy but by accounts of the 'Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation' Washington DC a small number of bombs are reportedly kept under U.S. Air Force guard at six airbases in five European countries, ready to be delivered by respective national fighter planes - if Ukraine were allowed their aspirations to join NATO then it's entirely possible that they too would be involved in such a setup, that won't be allowed to happen of course;
