Health and Safety at Work for a journalist must be an interesting read. No doubt they've been following the same Covid polices as the rest of us for the last couple of years. Yet, as soon as a war breaks out, it is pack your bags to Kiev.

This has made me very upset.

History has a knack of repeating itself

In the event of nuclear war go to your nearest fallout shelter, or keep windows closed and don't go out until all clear sounded.
In case you think this is far fetched:
The secret nuclear bunker built as the UK’s last hope - BBC Future

I live right by Greenham common, a former US nuclear weapon holding airbase! I know the chap who runs a datacenter out of the former armory and nuclear bunker! Just checking I have his mobile number right!! LOL

I'll go to the 15th at Blackmoor. Ive never hit that poxy green from 190 yards, so Vlad won't stand a chance from 3,500 miles away...

All the talk of sanctions, etc should be turned into actions immediately.
The sooner that the powers that be start treating Russia the same as North Korea the better. They should be banned from all sporting competitions, economic summits, etc and treated like the pariahs they are.

Yep. I'm baffled why it's just a handful of banks and billionaires being targeted. All trade and banking should be stopped until they stop.
Hopefully, normal Russians will speak up when they have to start queuing for rations again, like they did 30 years ago.

?????
In the event of a nuclear war just go to your nearest pub and get brams and list.

I've got an Anderson shelter in my garden if you think that might help?

In the event of a nuclear war. The very best one can hope for is to be evaporated in the initial blast. Anything else is just a sliding scale of how miserable your existence will be until you die.

Unfortunately one particular group have blocked barring Russia from swift transactions.

For those that know

Alternatives, already in existence but under-used because of Swift's convenience/dominance, would likely have been utilised. A healthy dose of self-interest was likely involved too!

But didn't they want a joint response.

Likely to have been 'posturing' that evaporated when it came to the crunch.

 

[RichA]

I may be mistaken, but I haven't heard any mention all day of sanctions involving not buying Russia's oil and gas - 30% of their GDP.
Bizarre that the west will continue to contribute to the funding of the war machine, unless I've got that completely wrong.

Still can't believe they haven't been kicked out of the Eurovision song contest yet.
