UK's "Ho" Office offered anal pleasure services with 2,581 investor visas to Russian citizens who had £2m in investment funds & a UK bank account in exchange for residency rights, along with their family.

But from what I heard from irate Brits overseas it's nearly impossible to get their non EU partners into the UK since 2017 (unless they have loads of cash as well)

Summed it up nicely with this book synopsis

How Britain's Democracy Has Been Bought

Prostitute State has 4 Pillars

A Corrupted Political System
A Prostituted Media

A Thieving Tax-Haven System

1. The Corrupted Political System
2. The Prostituted Media
3. The Thieving Tax-Haven System
4. A Perverted Academia

#DRASTIC certainly knows all about that..
This book was written by the former deputy chair of the Liberal Democrat Party, who draws on personal experience, undisputed historical facts & meticulous research to show how political parties & institutions serve the interests of the corporate elite

1. We well know that during war, "Truth" is first to die

Everyday we read & see western media reports, Ukrainian government claims & US/UK intelligence analysis of the war

However, we are limited in our knowledge of Russian perspectives, claims & analysis due to censorship Image
2. The Fog of War

This creates a feedback loop which affects our judgement on what is happening

The danger is that without analysing the opponent's strategy & claims, we fall into a trap of believing the mirage presented to us

That is true for both Russians & Westerners Image
3. Let's analyse the Russian position & claims by looking at its main official news source, "TASS", as many alternative Russian news sources are now unavailable or difficult to find.

Since 1904 TASS has been Russia's leading news agency, supporting the Russian State's Narratives Image

Ukrainian soldier, Hrybov, who told a Russian warship to “go fuck yourself” while defending Snake Island has been awarded with a special medal, local authorities said. Ukraine’s MOD admitted he was released from Russian captivity & home in Cherkasy, not dead as previously claimed

Waking up to Propaganda (27th February)

Snake island story turns out to be propaganda. Ukraine now says that they strongly believe that the soldiers are alive. Fog of war is a fun thing

When War Moves to Cities - Protection of Civilians

"While there is no legal prohibition of the use of explosive weapons in cities, any such use must
comply with IHL...However, in practice, compliance is challenging"

- Red Cross (2017)

An example of the psychopathic tendencies of "military specialists" who promote urban warfare can be found here:

DEFENDING THE CITY: AN OVERVIEW OF DEFENSIVE TACTICS FROM THE MODERN HISTORY OF URBAN WARFARE

mwi.usma.edu/defending-the-…

Sad to see only one mention of "civilians"..
One solution unlikely to be approved by governments and the military, but certainly appealing to urban residents who pay for it all anyway:

Brave Soldiers, Please go outside of our city to fight!

Don't put the lives of civilians at risk.

#Yemeni Blood for #Saudi Oil

The strikes on Sana’a reportedly killed eight civilians

UK Education secretary, Nadhim Zahawi:

"This is not something that should be taken lightly, that someone can go into a country illegally, and start bombing civilians, and feel that there is no there is no response from the global community"

@danielboffey Brussels Bureau Chief @guardiannews
writes with a forked keyboard

"Russia reasserts right to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine"

The headline is a lie

Even the 4 grounds for using nuclear weapons listed by Medvedev contradict his brazen lie

theguardian.com/world/2022/mar…
So, @danielboffey in Lviv, ex- Policy Editor of The Observer, do you lie for pleasure or because your "newspaper" demands it?
Once a Liar...

"Daniel Boffey tricked his way into Westminster after responding to a newspaper advertisement. After telling lies about his education & skills & using 2 bogus references, Mr Boffey got a job working on the 3rd floor communications centre"

This is also pretty big news!

(ignored by MSM as it doesn't fit the curent narrative)

How One Ukrainian Billionaire Funded Hunter Biden, President Zelensky & The Neo-Nazi Azov Battalion

kanekoa.substack.com/p/how-one-ukra…

by @KanekoaThaGreat
and a previous story on the "Maidan Coup" in 2014

Of course, not all Ukrainians are Nazis & many are fighting for their lives, so due respect to them in their struggle

That said, US involvement should not be ignored & it is right to clarify the events

Note disclaimer by @KanekoaThaGreat which I agree with.
