And where, because his foot with be in one road and his arms and torso in a completely different suburb.I saw it had been announced on Russain TV that the Russians will be naming a street in Kherson after him. I wonder when that will take place?
Last time I checked we aren’t married so why you think what I do or don’t do has anything to do with you whatsoever is baffling to me.
I really don’t know what it’s got to do with you or why you take such an interest in what I do or don’t comment on. What I find weird is that it’s keeping you awake at night.I just think it's fucking weird that you are a member of a CCFC forum and only comment on off the field issues and the off topic politics section.

By the same token I go on Mumsnet and never talk about mums.I just think it's fucking weird that you are a member of a CCFC forum and only comment on off the field issues and the off topic politics section.
Laurel and hardy skit came to mind then. But I suppose I need to go to a Laurel and Hardy forum?By the same token I go on Mumsnet and never talk about mums.
Good point, well made.By the same token I go on Mumsnet and never talk about mums.
They just don't get it.Maybe they will be buoyed by this article. Moscow pundit calls for army to prepare ‘full-scale war in Europe'
They’re just sabre rattling again. They’re getting their arses handed to them in Ukraine and are trying to bluff and bluster their way through it so they dont lose any more face at home.Maybe they will be buoyed by this article. Moscow pundit calls for army to prepare ‘full-scale war in Europe'
Just wondering? Which country do you refer to in the bottom paragraph?They just don't get it.
NATO didn't "recruit" these countries - these countries wanted to join to preserve their newly won independence after 40 years of Soviet control. The thinking here now is that if we weren't part of NATO we would be next in line for Russian expansion. And on a country by country (except Poland) basis the Russians could pick them off because they are nowhere near the size of Ukraine.
There's another senior Russian politician today saying the aim is still to defeat Ukraine and park the Russian army along the borders of all these expansion states.
A new law went through here months back saying all able-bodied men are subject to immediate conscription in the case of the threat of invasion
We're in HungaryJust wondering? Which country do you refer to in the bottom paragraph?
It’s a tough one. But I think Hungary would defend as robustly as Ukraine. Is there any evidence of a build up? I hear about Latvia having a large number of NATO forces there all the time.We're in Hungary
Standing army is less than 25000. Miliary service stopped years back so training up reserves would be difficult.It’s a tough one. But I think Hungary would defend as robustly as Ukraine.

NATO’s military presence in the east of the Alliance
An important component of NATO’s deterrence and defence posture is military presence in the eastern part of Alliance territory. In recent years, Allies have enhanced NATO’s forward presence by establishing multinational battlegroups in Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland...www.nato.int

There's no major build up atm (don't want to be provocative) and don't really have much kit to build up. They'd be completely reliant on NATO (and kieranp96!!).
Announced big expansion and investment for the future even though they can't afford it.
Small NATO force here atm as Govt not particularly co-operative.
There aren't large numbers of NATO troops anyway apart from Germany. Likes of the Baltic states have a few thousand per country (was much less pre-Ukraine). Much like Ukraine in that NATO would have to give territory up in these Eastern European states before organising its response.
We can laugh now but back in March we sat down and discussed exactly these points. No-one here thought Ukraine would stop the Russians getting here.I would fight, or run back to the uk depends what the misses says .
I know we had similar conversations but we decided we would stay here until we had to leave but obviously if we couldn’t we would do something to help out.We can laugh now but back in March we sat down and discussed exactly these points.

Erm, this could be about to get pretty fucking serious.
'Defend every inch of NATO territory.'

NATO will probably just say ‘don’t you do that again you naughty boys’ & give them a warning
Think the worst well see is increased weaponry to Ukraine and a clear message that if any more “mistakes” happen it’s A5 time.
You're both probably right lads, but in theory this could seriously be a Franz Ferdinand/Black Hand Gang/World War 1 moment.
What a bunch of fucking idiots.
Are we back to the major, and I mean MAJOR, leafleting campaigns?Think the worst well see is increased weaponry to Ukraine and a clear message that if any more “mistakes” happen it’s A5 time.
