Ukraine counter offensive

[ReganAndCarter]

The same amount spent on maintaining migrants in hotels around the UK every day.
Coincidence?

Reminds me of Mr Fiddler's (appropriate for the Tories) Paradise Camp Site. Everything's a pound!

You say that, but how many Andy11s are there who are at best xenophobic and hate the idea of any foreigners living here, or at worst racists who'd rather machine gun them indiscriminately.

Don't recognise that description of anyone on here!

How do you think refugees get here and are made welcome?

1,391 people came through a refugee resettlement scheme.
4,786 people came through refugee family reunion rules.

Well, thank god those schemes are there is all I can say.

The UK Government does not accept applications for asylum from outside the country. That means, for people to have their case heard they have to get here first.

It is a commonly-repeated myth that asylum seekers must claim protection in the first safe country they reach – but it is simply untrue. Under the Refugee Convention we each have the right to claim asylum, to do this in any country that is a signatory, and to get a fair hearing from that country.

The proportion of people coming to the UK to seek asylum is actually very small. France, Germany and Greece all accept far higher numbers of asylum applicants than the UK does. In fact France received 3 times as many asylum claims as the UK did last year.

Most people who cross Channel in small boats are refugees, report finds

Refugee Council findings contradict Priti Patel’s claims that 70 per cent of arrivals are ‘economic migrants’

Are there not enough threads about migrants for you, already?

you've taken a comment related to the Ukraine conflict in connection to the amount of spending by British taxpayers out of context - nice try.
Must do better. B-

Apparently there have been a number of mysterious deaths of senior execs in the Russian energy sector ?? 15 ( at least) have died by falling from high rise apartments
Speed boats
And hospital windows ?? All described as accidents or suicide

As military spending increases and the economy gos down the toilet ? The cash pot for kick backs shrinks

The Kremlin is now confiscating pass ports of senior officials and state company execs lest they do a runner ???

"The Republic of Poland official Press Agency (PAP) has just published an article carrying news of a new "app" of where to go in the event of "extreme weather".

Some forecasts predict mushroom clouds associated with accompanying hypersonic winds.

If an "extreme weather" warning is issued you should head to your nearest bunker
To help you find it, check out the official report.

Rządowa aplikacja wskaże najbliższy schron. Wiceszef MSWiA: jest już dostępna

Państwowa Straż Pożarna przygotowała aplikację, za pomocą której każdy będzie mógł znaleźć schron, miejsce ukrycia lub miejsca doraźnego schronienia - poinformował wiceminister spraw wewnętrznych i administracji Maciej Wąsik.

USA intelligence leaks ( again)

State that the UK have special forces (SAS) operating in the Ukraine

No surprise it would be a surprise if they were not

Yep, Russia has gone full ISIS.

 

[motorbiking]

It shows how unprofessional their soldiers are. It will backfire. More condemnation of Russia and more determination of Ukraine to fight.

USA intelligence leaks ( again)

If it was leaked by Trump (an admirer of Putin, with an enmity for Ukraine)

Then "intelligence" may not be the right word.
