Of all the possible Russians #bbcqt could have had on, they had to choose divisive & explicitly anti-woke shit-stirring culture war weirdo Konstantin Kisin, who writes for right-wing media, including Quillette, The Spectator & Torygraph, & co-hosts the anti-woke 'Triggernometry'. Image
Triggernometry guests are a 'who's who' of predictably divisive anti-woke contrarians, including Douglas Murray, Jordan Peterson, Andrew Doyle, Peter Hitchens, Laurence Fox, Melanie Phillips, Rod Liddle & Matthew Goodwin, controversial outrage merchants the UK media adore. #bbcqt
Seems like only a few weeks ago that almost-impossible-to-avoid contrarian Triggernometry guest & arrogant walking superego Jordan Peterson was on #bbcqt not realising that putting "RACISM" in air quotes is something 99% of normal people would NEVER do.

Something tells me thin-skinned "free speech" snowflake Konstantin Kisin didn't like my tweet, so he went to the trouble of setting up a fake account just to troll me! 😊

He thinks voicing criticism is CANCELLING! No wonder he co-hosts a show called TRIGGERnomentry. Hi Konst! 👋 ImageImage

Just *fuck* these moronic, divisive, shit-stirring populist nationalist anti-humanity charlatans.

They've already spent years trying to turn Britain into a polarised hateful shithole on behalf of a right-libertarian billionaire elite who do not give a shit about British people. Image
Thankfully, not many people have heard of Dominique Taegon (now Dominique Samuels).

She was "a young influencer" for the dangerously irresponsible hard-right propaganda outfit Turning Point UK, which was supported by the likes of Paul Joseph Watson, Nigel Farage, & Priti Patel. Image
Here she is with Charlie Kirk, who launched TPUK, who has falsely claimed humans have no significant effect on global climate change & promotes the antisemitic conspiracy theory of Cultural Marxism which inspired far-right terrorist Anders Breivik, & conspiracy nut Candace Owens. Image

No evidence of a very concerning, intolerant, antidemocratic, anti-free-speech, increasingly authoritarian hard-right Government here. 🧐

As hardly anyone has heard of him, who is Stuart Anderson?
In 2005, Anderson co-founded Anubis Associates, offering courses in close protection training, "operational protection" for corporate VIPs, and "discreet personal protection" and consultancy services for petrochemical groups, financial institutions & stadiums. How did that go?
Anubis Associates collapsed in 2012. Anderson describes himself as having gone from a "paper millionaire" to being in receipt of food parcels within a month.

At the time of its collapse, Anubis Associates owed £271,000 in unpaid tax.

#THREAD

At least 400,000 Ukrainian refugees have entered the EU so far, & the EU is preparing to allow all Ukrainians who flee the war the right to stay & work in EU countries for up to three years.

Britain isn't considering being anywhere near as generous.
Those eligible to apply to apply for a visa to stay in Britain are limited to a spouse or civil partner, an unmarried partner of at least two years, children under the age of 18, a parent if their grandchild is under the age of 18, or adult relatives who are carers.
The UK scheme severely limits those who can apply for a visa, as a refugee has to be a direct relative of a British citizen. It also excludes parents of adult children.

Let's look back & examine Britain's twentieth century immigration policy for Jewish refugees.

What is China's position on Russia/Ukraine?

I'm no expert, but I understand China's Foreign Ministry has explicitly stressed that Beijing believes the "sovereignty & territorial integrity of all countries" should be respected — a principle that "applies equally to Ukraine."
There are of course caveats & significant context.

Weeks before the attack began, Chinese President Xi Jinping & Vladimir Putin issued an unprecedented joint statement seeming to align their visions for an anti-Western international order.
China & Russia have fostered deeper ties, including in military cooperation, as tensions with the USA have soared over the past several years.

Russia & China said they "oppose further enlargement of NATO" & called on the West "to abandon its ideologized cold war approaches."

Let's take a look at Jeremy Corbyn's recent position on #NATO.

Corbyn has been a long-term critic, especially of NATO's expansion eastward, but here's a quick #THREAD on his position since he threw his notorious hat into the Labour leadership contest.
Jeremy Corbyn’s stance on #NATO before he became @UKLabour leader is often paraphrased as “wanting to pull out” of the alliance, but there's no evidence of him using this form of words.
Corbyn generally talked about wishing that #NATO would restrict its role in world affairs or agree to dissolve itself, rather than actively calling for Britain to pull out.

In 2014, Andrei Illarionov, former economic policy advisor to Vladimir Putin from 2000-2005, predicted that Vladimir Putin was going to implement a military operation to effectively establish political control over Ukraine.
Illarionov suggested that Vladimir Putin would seek to incorporate Ukraine, Belarus, parts of Georgia & the Baltic states" into Russia.

On 9 June, he predicted a Russian attempt of establishing political control over the entirety of Ukraine.
Illarionov says that according to Putin, Transnistria, the part of the Moldovan republic which lies on the left bank of River Dniester, belongs to 'historic Russia' - Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania without a little strip belongs to historic Russia.
