I heard a great comment about Ian Blackford (vomit) after PMQ's on Wednesday.
Naturally there was massive support for Ukraine in the House and quite right too.
However, the radio commentator said that when Blackford stood up he thought he looked more like an airline steward because he was dressed so brightly in blue and yellow!

More denazification in action..

Chris Bryant has always been an up his own arse toady in my view. Not extreme but a good example of the shift the left made away from traditional working class roots.

So they aren't going to deal with the dirty and blood money in London but instead they are just going to seize assets if you're Russian.

This wasn't what I had in mind, I wanted a more general restructuring but more fool me.

I support the Ukrainian people being able to defend themselves against attack where it is brought to their door.

This brand of 'freedom' appears to involve support for a country where you can be imprisoned for 15 years for even acknowledging that war is taking place, and becoming angry that those under relentless attack are supplied with arms. Calling 'that' the war mongering. Russia is a country where you're liable to be poisoned or killed if you even represent a different future.

As I said, people here don't know how good they have it. Such hatred (the buying of a largely arbitrary packaged outlook - just as it is at the other political extreme) towards one brand of politics, ends up with endorsement of worse versions in the opposite direction. And the cycle repeats.

All of this post can be seen all over twitter and it’s embarrassing. It’s from people who opposed all the covid responses which a lot of the time they had a point. Now however they’ve decided that being contrarian works for everything, under the claim of ‘’I look for answers/nuance…. blah blah blah.’’ Now this would be fine if they weren’t criticising absolutely everything western on this while applauding Russian tv tweets & whatever also comes out of China, which incidentally isn’t so clear cut as they don’t point the finger at which side is responsible for this. But never mind, retweet with or without quotes anything you come across without realising the damage and dirty work you could be doing for Putin . Oh but ‘’I can be against the invasion but agree with the Putin’s opinion (whatever)’’ It’s so fecking immature and desperate for likes and to be right they don’t realise when they go beyond understanding Putin’s reasons to helping him get public sympathy and acceptance with what he’s doing. All done while they claim to somehow be on the button and in the know, while everyone else is clueless, nodding along to British tv, yet they’re getting their insider info from RT and wherever else Russian and controlled by Putin.
