I must admit, this Trumpy shit in politics has got to me quite a bit lately.
Johnson standing there saying this is just... how the fuck do you totally bury your shame like that?
I'd probably fold into myself and disappear if I tried to be so fucking brazen.

For those who want to get up to speed on this:
Private Eye in 2013: Where There's Muck...
...There's Brass Plates How UK ghost companies made Britain the capital of global corporate crime.
Private Eye in 2015: Tax Havens: Selling England By The Offshore Pound
For oligarchs, arms dealers, money launderers, kleptocrats and run-of-the- mill tax dodgers, British property is the investment of choice. But where is it and how is it owned?
Private Eye in 2015:
Looting With Putin
In the wake of the Salisbury nerve agent attack, MPs investigating how Russian president Vladimir Putin and allies have been “hiding and laundering their corrupt assets in London” concluded it was still “business as usual”.

Putin has gone "full Tonto" and the UK military can "kick Russia's backside" says Defence Secretary and former Scots Guards officer Ben Wallace. /facepalm That won't rile them up at all. Nope. No chance of that. |

No chance of that. Referring to the frigging Crimean War, of all things. Mind you, if it was Liz Truss she'd probably have said we kicked their backsides in WW2. |

We done this yet: Trump thinks Putin's aggression is 'Wonderful' and 'Genius'That's only the man who until last January was the US President... and will undoubtedly try to run for office again next election unless he's been nailed for corruption by the authorities by then. Fox "News" stooping to new lows as well.Hard to believe these people consider themselves to be American 'patriots' really. It appears the narrative is if you're MAGA then you've got to be pro Putin/Russia, because he's a tough guy. We're all in big trouble if these types of people ever get back into power. |

So just to check Tucker Carlson is accusing Ukraine of being a dictatorship by praising...*checks notes...a well documented dictator. That kind of 4D chess would put Higgy to shame.

I’m a little jealous of you guys and gals who are in European time zone right now. And can sleep through the start of this hell. Things are getting very serious overnight. Putin essentially declared war and a large scale invasion and shelling / missile campaign has begun.

Putin is a grade-A cunt. I wonder what the West/NATO will do, if anything? If no military intervention is undertaken then the sanctions need to be as brutal as possible.

Sanctions are going to do fuck all. He's been planning this invasion so he would have known the West would impose sanctions. Obviously he doesn't give a fuck about them and probably has a plan to mitigate them. |

I think the plan is “let the people suffer any consequences while I do what I need to stay relevant”

The invaded regions are basically pro-Russia anyway, right? It makes me wonder what's even the point of all this mess.

Not quite - it's not as if they only rolled in there and that's it. They are targeting military bases and making moves on Kyiv. This is utterly fucked.

Might be useful if Winnie the Pooh did have a word. I suppose he did ask for it not to happen during the Olympics.

Correction, the Soho House revocation is just something that’s being “strongly considered” at this time

There is a very long way between Ukraine getting invaded and the start of world war 3. If he were to carry on and try and take one of the NATO nations back then it would be a very different matter.

Sanctions are going to do fuck all. He's been planning this invasion so he would have known the West would impose sanctions. Obviously he doesn't give a fuck about them and probably has a plan to mitigate them. They won't stop the invasion, but they could fuck Russia economically long-term. Of course any sanctions won't be nearly strong enough to do that, even if Russia weren't able to depend on China, Iran etc anything we've do would be weak as fuck. |

Few rumours that they've cancelled Putin's Tesco Clubcard. He almost had enough points to get the Delonghi toaster he's had his eye on apparently.
