The Prime Minister Keir Starmer is under pressure to increase spending on defence following a hospital bombing in Kiev yesterday. Britain should train a 'citizen army' ready to fight a war in the future, the head of the Army has said. General Sir Patrick Sanders warned that an increase in reserve forces alone 'would not be enough'.

Yesterday, I watched an interview with one of the organizers of the protests in Barcelona.

Could it be safe to say that any push for war would not be supported by the population who’d consider themselves as being used as foot soldiers pawns and fodder to fight a futile war? Who is to say that Russia will be an aggressor should it recapture the Ukraine into the Soviet Union. Has not it been the Russian stance from the get go that it doesn’t require aggressions from having foreign war mongering and foreign bases installed into the region. Isn’t that what all of this is about. How many times can Britain fit into Russia for Britain to fear Russia since Second World War. So sad how power hungry individuals have made the world an unsafe environment for all living things given the potential for the use of frying weapons, equally with having unstable people at the helm it is more like likely than not we all shall fry…isn’t that the reality.

The best way to 'help' Ukraine would be to get Zelenski, whose term as President has now expired but has been extended indefinitely until the war is over using emergency powers, to hold an election to see if the Ukrainian population want to continue with this forever war or sit down at the negotiating table and bring it to an end. Without minimising any suffering in Ukraine, why is the same sympathy not shown to the inhabitants of Gaza where Israel has destroyed ALL the hospitals? It is not mentioned in this video that the Russian ambassador to the UN has offered a different version of events. Why when Israel destroy a hospital is their explanation so readily accepted but when Russia offers an alternative explanation it is ignored. It appears that everything Russia and Hamas say are lies but everything Israel and Ukraine says is the gospel truth.
