Ha...most, but the elites weren't done away with in Russia, it just changed hands.

Zelensky was a comedian before president, Puttin is pushing him close as a comedian, full tonto is about right, but very worrying

Yep, probably wouldn't even have our subs.

I doubt it would happen, for a couple of reasons...let's hope that Putin isn't terminal health wise.....always a problem in an Autocrat country with nukes.

With the very recent "Nuclear Special Alert" being publicised by Russia, I am thinking a couple of things.
Firstly, that nuclear announcement seems like madness. If Putin's behaviour seems so random, within his inner circle, perhaps someone will take the initiative and kill Putin, before he goes too far.
Secondly no one really knows what seems to be happening in battles in Ukraine, except top commanders,(perhaps). Maybe Russia isn't doing too well and wants to dissuade Western allies from tipping the conventional weapon scales in Ukraine's favour.

if we get a 15 minute warning nuclear warning, I'm going out a shagging. Let's hope there's some Totty around.

 


I disengage, I turn the page.

You won't have that long. Missiles fly faster these days.

This presupposes his military is his military or whether they will tell him to bugger off if he tries to push the button.

Ok, no foreplay then. And might not waste time getting consent

What's that joke about the women in Wales, something about there being plenty but that they mostly resembled actual whales.

Just a joke of course....always had a thing for Ruth Madoc myself.

He's had decades for 'yes' men in the military...like western generals they all get filtered as part of the system.

No chance of a 'Patton' type...which as Patton was a really good general tells you something about the brownnosing peacetime choice between the 'yes sire, three bags full sir' type and pure meritocracy.

That said, you'd hope that if it came down to nukes and mutual destruction Putin would be overthrown.....though he has seven thousand nukes and we have sixteen available at one time...don't know how many France have....and no one else has nukes in Europe.

But just like I don't see him invading outside of the Ukraine I don't see the nuke threats as serious.

In bygone days I used to court a young lady from Wales.
She used to say in her broad Welsh accent "Lie bach and Prestatyn"

Surely not in her most lusty moments?

So she was into classical music?

I was wondering what he was going to do for the other 14 minutes.
