Presumably this means heating homes etc will be cheaper next year? Aye,so they will...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably there will be a cost on replacing piped gas from Russia to shipped LPG from Qatar and the US, but that won't affect the UK much directly. An expert will be along soon to explain it to you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be some going, since she'd have been dead for months by that point 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've learned on here, that's not a tank, even if the French say it is. I like it though, it seems independent of a battalion of squaddies protecting it. I also think it would be easier to park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a tank but definitely bigger in the trouser department than any Russian APC I can think of. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leith Green Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Really good documentary earlier on BBC2, guy called OIly Lambert spent a few weeks filming with some of the volunteer army on the front lines. Well worth a watch, it will be on iPlayer - Ukraine: The Peoples Fight 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Macron sends something that may or may not be a tank, Putin fails to go thermonuclear or attack the Suwalki gap over it, so the next step now is something that is unambiguously a main battle tank with the onus very much on Germany who recently said they wouldn't do it unilaterally: Looks very much like Ukraine can win the whole shebang at this point if NATO countries give them the necessary hardware, but maybe NATO leaders prefer to draw things out until Russia starts to implode of its own accord and/or want to give Vlad the chance to do another major goodwill gesture back to the 2014 lines. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
