Is the nuclear Russian Bear on the Move - Ukraine - Russian War - Biden Era


Lets Get Real:

This could be Putin's move to counter the success of the Ukraine in areas that were under Russian control since their invasion of February.  The Kremlin might be thinking that their Army is not up to much, and their partial call up of troops has frightened Russian males, from published photos of those called up show old men in their 40s and 50s, if the Russian Leadership has to scrap the barrel for Soldiers then they have a problem.  Also it must be hundred of thousands of Russian men are heading to the borders to get hell out of dodge.  It is somewhat of shock that the Kremlin has not closed the borders, one must postulate that Putin would rather have the opposition outside of the Country than on the streets calling for Putin to go.  The question is will Putin really set of a low yield tactical nuclear weapon in the Ukraine, the West would react, but the land lost to Ukraine would be clouded by radiation, thus no one can live there, much like Chernobyl after 1986.  The forests around Chernobyl are still full of radiation, it would take years to clean up an area if a tactical nuclear weapon was used in the Ukraine, Putin might call that a WIN, no one could use the land, is Putin really that MAD ?  What would the NATO DO, that is the question at the moment. 

A Major U - Turn on Tax by the Truss Government - Liz Truss Era


Lets Get Real:

This was a major U - Turn by PM Liz Truss, the great Lady T would never have done this kind of U - TURN, but then the late PM was more careful, she had to put up with the WETS in her Cabinet for a few years, and she was sure of the loyalty of a FEW.  This is not the POLL TAX, and a week is a long time in politics, and the Government can come back if it gets PR operation in better shape, also the Chief Whip needs to get his/her whip out to make sure backbench MPs are loyal to the Party, names should be taken who have rebelled, also a warning to the new ones, that disloyal MPs do not get Government jobs or favours.  Liz Truss has lost one of her political lives, she has to be careful, there is a general election in two years time.  Also there is a warning that during the winter we could face power cuts, it would be like 1978 ALL OVER AGAIN.  After the Party the Conference the PM has to get her ship on the right course, otherwise we face a Labour Government in 2024.
