- Replying to @MarkUrban01And I read that Ukraine have opened a phoneline for the families of missing Russian soldiers, to find out the fate of their soldier relatives, so that, at least they will know the truth, which the Russian authorities are suppressing.
- Kazakhstan, too, has only just had a serious insurrection crushed by Russian troops, and I heard it had reignited.
- Yes, why would you trust Johnson not to spill the beans to one of his oligarch mates?
- Replying to @mwjeepster1 @counterchekist and 10 othersWhen u think, it's down to the FBI to save the free world from Russian domination. Situation is that serious. Thank heavens for the FBI
- Replying to @SangitaMyskaAnd I have not forgotten that you lost your job at LBC, where you were a highly successful and popular presenter, because you gave an Israeli politician a firm interview. They sacked you immediately for just doing your job. . .
- Replying to @MuqadaamMore power to her, she is wonderful. If only she was leading the labour party
- Replying to @bmayAnd they were booed going in and going out, both times, going out even louder booing. . .
- Replying to @nafovikingI believed the three times when Putin was said to have died in the night of a cardiac arrest, cancer or some mystery illness and it was being covered up. . . And Lukashenko's heart attack. ..

- I remember that soon after Mrs Thatcher came to power, and prior to the miners' strike, she gave the police a pay rise, showed them support, and they were all firmly on her side. For a PM to alienate the police is always a bad idea and usually backfires somehow. . .
- Replying to @martindvzI've also heard that the Sikh communities in Kent (Gravesend in particular) do a great deal for the community, free food, help of all kinds. Good people.
- Replying to @Charles83230639So do I. Sir Chris Whitty and Dr Van Tamm were the true heroes of covid in my opinion. And I understand that Dr Whitty worked as a clinician when not engaged in his public work. . .
- Replying to @Eyeswideopen69 and @Ross01735504LizHe was an MEP for a long time, while he took a vast salary from the EU, whilst quietly working to undermine and weaken the institution. And I gather he barely did any work as an MEP, constantly missed meetings. An idle, grifting, traitor. . .
