Not so keen on the war now, it seems, with ordinary 🇷🇺 in line to lose their lives…
Leaving in DROVES.

They were not willing to open their mouths to speak out against 🇷🇺 Genocide and other #warcrimes in 🇺🇦.

But now the prospect of THEIR lives on the line is a different matter.

And it will be 🇷🇺 ‘s young that will be leaving.

The ones 🇷🇺 needs most.
More calls for Putin’s resignation.
They are finally on message.

Putin in the trenches first.
Manhandling a young man in a suit onto the mobilisation bus
My. How not sending heavy weapons for months and not sending modern tanks & aircraft has worked to ensure Putin doesn’t escalate.
👏👏👏

Putin won’t be able to deflect blame for much longer

Excellent ⁦@ruth_deyermond⁩ article

Very striking how 🇷🇺 abandoned collaborators to their fate, including Russian teachers who came to Ukraine to indoctrinate 🇺🇦 children.

prospectmagazine.co.uk/world/putin-wo…
Can’t think this will encourage collaboration with Russia in the future.

“The September rout… represents a profound international humiliation for the Russian armed forces.”
“In the first days of the counteroffensive, the liberation of towns by Ukraine occurred so fast that maps of the frontline were obsolete within hours. Images of abandoned tanks and arms stores (now available for Ukrainian use) were seen around the world.”

🇯🇵 2022 study.

Nearly all children who died were unvaccinated but over half had no underlying health condition.

Of the 41 patients, eight were aged under 1, 10 were aged 1-4, 17 were 5-11, five were 12-19, and the age of one child was unknown.
Get your children vaxed IF the Gov will let you

But our 🇬🇧 Gov and JVCI are NOT permitting routine vax against covid for children aged 5-11 yrs.

These children cannot protect themselves against infectious diseases

The adults in the room - in the Gov, the JVCI, schools -SHOULD
Over half of these patients developed COVID-19 symptoms after mid-July. Of those 73% died within a week of developing symptoms.

Only two (both over 12) had both doses

The numerical risk may be low, but that will be do consolation at all if you are one of the unlucky ones.

Britain and the US are poor societies with some very rich people

In 2007, the average UK household was 8% worse off than its peers in NW Europe, but the deficit has since ballooned to a record 20%.

On present trends, the average Slovenian household will be better off than its British counterpart by 2024, & the average Polish family will move ahead before the end of the decade. A country in desperate need of migrant labour may soon have to ask new arrivals to take a pay cut.
Norway fared highly at both ends of the spectrum with their wealthiest very wealthy but the poorest 5% were the best off in the world in that 5th percentile group, with Switzerland not far behind. Image

Sterling sinks to lowest level since 1985 as recession fears mount | Financial Times

The £ dropped 0.8% in morning trading in London to $1.137, the first time it has breached the $1.14 mark in almost 4 decades.
ft.com/content/e8f0dd…
”The move reflected broad strength in the dollar as well as particular concern about the state of Britain’s economy. Sterling was off around 0.4 per cent against the euro at €1.142, its weakest level since early 2021.”
The quantity of good we purchased fell by 1.6% but they cost 14% more than Feb 2014 due to rising prices.

“The downward momentum is gathering speed…we are already in economic recession.”

Absolutely scathing (deservedly) from ⁦@Simon_Nixon⁩

“It is hard to avoid the suspicion that what really lies behind the Truss government’s assault on the Treasury is embarrassment at the economic consequences of the past 12 years of Tory rule.”
thetimes.co.uk/article/the-di…
“The disappointments of Osborne’s chancellorship are nothing compared with the failures of the past six years. Truss talks repeatedly about her plans for supply side reform…”
“…apparently oblivious to the fact that since 2016 the Tories have presided over the most radical supply side revolution, albeit almost entirely negative, in recent history.

Trade barriers have been erected with Britain’s most important trading partners.”
