'Never volunteer' 63 soldiers probably conscripts, admitted dead by Russia, Ukraine says 400. A strike by 'HIMARS' on an ammunition dump kills everyone in the building adjoining. Crazy.

Death by mobile phone. Their use by the Russian conscripts, possibly calling home, probably betraying the location. Fury in Russia at the military over now 89 admitted dead. But from the interviews I've seen Russians are not wavering, feeling this is a just operation against the west and ukraine. Russia as ever 'a riddle wrapped up in a mystery'.

Only now that the Republicans have taken over the house (which decides on the budget of the government's spending) do you see the sudden changes happening with 'corrupt' officials in Ukraine. The Republicans are going to audit the funds that have gone to Ukraine and because of that the Democrats are terrified and sent the CIA over to Ukraine (this happened and can be checked out)....days later you see all these resignations. I believe that this is what's actually happening. That is the US putting their preferred men into power in Ukraine. God knows that extent of the financial corruption that's occurred in Ukraine......Oh to be a US taxpayer.

I've just read a transcript of Volodymyr Zelensky's speech in Westminster yesterday. You have to say the man is a brilliant orator and has some pluck in the face of what's going on back home. He can sure hold an audience, foreign big wigs at that, and he's not backward in coming forward to ask for more help. Can't blame him one iota, it's not just Ukraine but the West as a whole at stake. But, we don't have that many resources to look after ourselves without loaning a whole bunch to Ukraine. I hope we give his Country all the assistance he requires. But I also hope other Western countries help too and that we're not left with no defences of our own.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
