Russia on the MOVE in East Ukraine - Ukraine - Russian War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.47pm post the following, " Russia has air and artillery advantage in east - Ukrainian military official.....Russia has been operating in a "classical" way, he says, first attacking from the air, then with artillery and then sending in ground forces.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is a WAR that Putin cannot afford to lose and the West knows that if they allow Russia to win in the Ukraine then other Countries, NATO members could come under THREAT from the Kremlin, the Russians have millions of men, even if they are poor conscripts thrown in to hell, while the West has the modern technology, the West has to increase its military support for Ukraine, more weapons, tanks, and even fighter jets if they can agree how to it.  The WAR in the Ukraine, will be a WAR of long attrition, very much like WW1 and the trenches, the Russians will in a few days have technical default on their loans, the Russian economy rouble has returned to pre invasions levels, the Kremlin is making the issue the national security of Russia, in reality its Putin's obsession and about the return to the old USSR, or even Imperial Russia. 

Has the Chancellor GONE LEFT on the UK Budget ? - Boris Johnson Era

Guido Fawkes: Reports " As expected, Rishi has fired up the money printer once again to combat inflation. The Treasury claims it’ll cost £15 billion, with £5 billion a year supposedly coming from the newly-announced windfall tax “energy profits levy“   "

Lets Get Real:

Guido is not impressed, a Conservative Chancellor is acting like a LABOUR CHANELLOR, spending money that the Country does not have, how many times can you go to the bank of WINDFALL TAX, companies in these areas will take their business offshore, a good Conservative Chancellor would increase taxes on the rich for a time, cut Government spending, what about saving for a very rainy day.  After the Sue Gray report the PM and the Chancellor want to divert attention, this spending money speech from the chancellor will divert, but what about the next time, and there will be a next time, do we attack business just to keep the press mob happy.  Sad Day if your a REAL CONSERVATRIVE.   It seems a cost of the PM drinking is 15 billion and the Chancellor being rich will COST future generations.  This will not be a popular view, does not mean its wrong. 

Russia trying to blackmail the West over GRAIN - Ukraine - Russian War - New Cold War 2

This blog is not covering the Sue Gray report and its reaction, its all over BBC News, Sky News etc:

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 3.58pm post the following, " Russia trying to blackmail international community - Ukraine.....Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said Russia is trying to "blackmail" the international community by raising the possibility of unblocking Black Sea ports in return for a relaxation of sanctions.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians are showing why they are the No 1 rogue nation in the WORLD, they have committed WAR CRIMES in the Ukraine, from killing men, women to children, to the bombing of school and hospitals and NOW as stated yesterday post they are trying to blackmail the West in to lifting sanctions as to allow grain to leave the Ukraine.  The Russians have already STOLEN grain from the Ukraine, they have NO SHAME or HONOUR, let's stop letting the Russian people off the hook for Putin, this blog has not seen mass protests on the street, shouting F*ck the War at a rock concert does not COUNT, if the Russian people want to separate themselves from their EVIL REGIME, hundreds of thousands should be on the street.  It seem the Russian people have sold their souls as to allow Russia to be a lone bear striking FEAR in to its own people and neighbours.  

Afghanistan WITHDRAWAL a DISASTER - House of Commons - Boris Johnson Era

This is why this blog has lost confidence in Boris Johnson as PM -

BBC News: Reports  " The UK's withdrawal from Afghanistan last year was a "disaster" and a "betrayal" that will damage the nation's interests for years, an inquiry by MPs has found.  "

Lets Get Real:

This blog has no time for Party gates, its a attempt by the enemies of the PM to get him out of OFFICE because of BREXIT, some can never accept that FACT that they were on the losing side.  This goes to Remain MPs still in the House of Commons, the left wing press, BBC News, Sky News, Channel 4 News, Guardian, even the Times and Conservative MPs who are former Ministers and are angry for being sacked, and MPs who want the top job themselves.  The STORY of Afghanistan as stated above is the real reason this blog no longer supports PM, he should have shamed the US to stay, in other words, he should have kept troops in Afghanistan and fought off the Taliban.  The Taliban have shown they hate women, no schools for women, and TV presents must hide their faces!  Also those that supported the West in Afghanistan have been killed and the WEST did nothing, one hopes the lesson of Afghanistan for the US and UK is that YOU have to fight EVIL, at present that is in the Ukraine, just the poor people of Afghanistan have had to pay for that lesson. 

Russians STEALING Ukrainian FOOD - Ukraine - Russian War - New Cold War 2

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.21pm post the following, " Satellite images show Russian ships 'stealing Ukrainian grain'....amid fears of an impending global food crisis as Russian forces continue to block Ukraine's ports and stop the country from exporting grain.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians are past a point of no return when it comes to HONOUR when it comes to Ukraine, their soldiers have killed and raped their way in the North of Ukraine, they have bombed civic structures, such as schools and hospitals, NOW they are stealing the grain of the Ukraine that goes to feed Africa, one can see the tactic, make the World fret less about the Ukraine and more about people, men, women, and children starving in Africa.  This shows how BASE Russia has become, why it has become the No 1 rogue nation.  What does it take to get the Russian people out on the street, they managed twice in 1917 during World War 1 and in 1991 to bring down the old Soviet Union, the people of Russia have to show they understand that the WAR in the Ukraine is WRONG, is there any humanity left in RUSSIA? 

Russian ATTACK in the Donbas like World War 2 - Ukraine - Russian War - New Cold War 2

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 11.33am post the following, " Russian attack in Donbas ‘largest one on European soil since WWII’, says Ukraine....Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, said the Russian offensive in the Donbas is “the largest one on European soil since WWII”.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the chance for the WEST to show to Putin's Russia that it cannot win in the Donbas or any other place in the Ukraine.  The Russians have the manpower, their poor conscripts are been thrown in to a WAR FROM HELL.  One Russian Soldier of late has been convicted of WAR CRIMES and sentenced to life in prison.  The Kremlin is giving illegal orders, that the Russian Soldier has to follow or get shot, it has been reported that a Russian Officer shot wounded Russian Soldiers who could not get up.  The Russian Army is the new German Army of 1941 that invaded Russia, WAR CRIMES are a daily order.  As stated many times in this blog, Putin's Russia has to LOSE and be SEEN TO LOSE, otherwise Europe will have further trouble down the line with Russia.  After the failure in Afghanistan, POTUS cannot afford another loss, also the Oval Office has to send a message to China over Taiwan and Iran over its nuclear ambitions. 

US to protect Taiwan from China THREATS - New Cold War 2 Russia/China

BBC News: Reports " US President Joe Biden has warned China is "flirting with danger" over Taiwan, and vowed to intervene militarily to protect the island if it is attacked.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus another Biden foot in mouth policy change, first it was Russia, now China, the State Department will have to cope with more of these as Biden gets older, that is why its not a good idea for him to run for a 2nd term.  The US policy towards China and Taiwan in ambiguity, thus not to tie the hands of the OVAL OFFICE or his successor to the job.   After Ukraine POTUS must have decided that ambiguity gets you nowhere, thus its better to be FIRM with the opponents of the US, in this case China and its aims to take Taiwan back as a province of China.  Thus Oval Office should tell the State Department that they follow the orders of the Oval not the other way around.  It is good Biden is FIRM over the US reaction, might prevent a WAR IN ASIA, between the US and China over Taiwan.
