He is also massively inadequate for the role and bit of a p***k. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with Rolf Harris holding on and a whole load of other wealthy folk it turns out the law only applies to non-white people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I wonder how many PoW's the Ukrainians now hold. How many will be too many for the Russians. This stuff needs to be gotten to the Russian public 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking hell That's nothing. Belarus have a referendum on adapting the constitution to allow nuclear weapons on their soil. Also giving Lukashenko executive powers. Could lead to permanent Russian military presence too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel very guilty, as it's almost like a TV drama. A lot of folk don't seem to understand how nasty war is. Anyone old enough remember Iraq/Kuwait when the Iraqi army fled and the Allies bombed them when trapped in their vehicles? That was a war crime too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_of_Death The fact they were leaving the war zone and going back to Iraq. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
