    These are not remotely comparable situations, but, given that the entire nation of Poland ended up being moved westwards to appease the Soviet Union (and create modern Ukraine, whose historic borders are inviolable and worth impoverishing ourselves for), there is something to be taken from it.

    Mr Place, a British 29-year-old PhD student and content writer, and his wife, a 34-year-old Ukrainian working as a content manager
    I don't think either of those are real jobs.

    The pro-war geezers in Russia are in meltdown over Kherson. Nutjobs like Dugin and Solovyov (that are influential enough to have Putin's ear) are calling for incompetent commanders to be shot by firing squad and for Putin to enact full war mobilisation of the population and economy.

    You can teach English as a foreign language even if you are a borderline retard from what I can tell, you don't need a relevant degree. Half the people I know who have done it wouldn't know the difference between a noun and a verb.

    I know a pit yakka from Ashington who went to China to do that. I'd love to hear the little Chinese kids speaking that brand of English.

    It's probably bits of a shot down one, or a botched attempt to shoot one down.

    Jokes aside, Russia will have to deny this. There'll be lots of information about it being Ukrainian air defences that did it.

    Not very long at all.

    Unless China get involved. Then, well, let's just hope they don't.

    Xi won't go anywhere near it, unless he wants his third term to be a short one. I can't see this escalating, Russia are struggling against Ukraine alone and have apparently depleted their missile inventory massively with today's strikes (they're already having to depend on Iran heavily). Militarily they make little sense but for them it was all about optics on the backdrop of G20 and it's blown up in their face because they've got untrained conscripts operating outdated missile systems.

    China would get taken to pieces in a conventional war too, as they well know.

    It'll probably end up being a Ukrainian missile, or a gas explosion caused by the dreadful Polish diet.

    It wasn't a Ukranian missile? Gonna be a tough one to swallow this for the soft shite brigade. Hopefully it was a direct bit of western-supplied weaponry that caused it too.

    The fuckers got pummelled so hard yesterday Moldova lost power for a bit. Inject it.

    The way in which the West are bending over backwards to disown this being a Russian missile is tragic.

    They’re on their knees, right? FINISH THEM.

    Nato going in because a farmer got blown off his tractor would be a ridiculous overreaction, even if that's what should happen by the terms of the treaty.

    Zelensky is doing his best to make it seem like Paris was nuked though, bless 'im.

    The Baltic nations seem to be bang up for it. Good to know we can count on them to wear the tin hats when we do eventually have to fight Russia, while we and the French do our bit by sending them 1,000 pairs of wellies and a tanker full of mayonnaise for their sandwiches.

    We just need to end this shitshow now, it's gone on long enough, the human cost is still massive and the economy of Europe is fucked as a result - enough is enough.

    If Putin's not going to nuke Ukraine then the logic should follow that he's not going to nuke us, so let's have it.
