a trap in the sense of encouraging more visible NATO intervention ?

“We are extending the family scheme so more people will be eligible

We are going to have a humanitarian scheme, and also one where individuals can sponsor Ukrainians to come to the UK.”

I’d love to know what the details are.

I’m not a strategist but the convoy does not appear to be moving much. Must be a reason

they certainly are, loved seeing the fly around, really graceful but menacing at the same time. mobile air defence systems have also improved massively since they were introduced though.

But still nothing better for close ground support along with Harrier and Apache

Liam fox getting grilled by Derbyshire about it now. “the EU have already decided what they are doing - it’s three years with no questions. Why are the UK still deciding?”

I told my wife when it started that she was welcome to get any friends or family out to live here, I have a big house with five bedrooms and four ensuites so could easily have took 10 people or so. She said that she wouldn't be able to get anyone into the UK because of visas.

My MIL has a 5 year visa and she is entitled to stay six months of the year. Obviously at this stage we don't know when Kiev is safe to go back but she's worried this government will kick her out the country. I've told her not to worry about that as it won't happen but if so we'll have to go and rent somewhere in Ireland for a few months. Disgusting thought really.
