I thought maybe a nice pub in Liverpool - say The Lisbon?

Nah, on Saturday I'll be down the Seven Sisters Road.

Isn’t this just a typical French move?

“Don’t nuke us,vlad, we’re no threat”

No mate.

Every country has a nuclear doctrine.

They will only use nuclear weapons to protect THEIR country and respect of NATO, other NATO countries.

Its really not news that France, the UK and the US, among others, would not be able to justify the use of nuclear weapons if Russia nuked Ukraine.


The UK would consider using nuclear weapons only in extreme circumstances of self-defence, including the defence of NATO allies.

You’re getting bummed lad and the Ukes are going in dry.

Erm. That may be offensive to some people.

 

[Yarrgh]

Is it just me wondering why this kit wasn't deployed earlier?

You escalate at the climax?

Perhaps this part of the war is coming to an end.

Russia has a no first use nuclear policy. I may be mistaken but the US doesn't. Like I say I may be mistaken.

Indeed.

But Russia has annexed the regions, thus "allowing" them to use the self defence doctrine.

I have no idea what US nuclear policy is, to be honest.

Stood in the corner, being miserable as sin, with a glass of lemonade, while ogling all the women but afraid to speak to them because of his odd socks and fly being undone….

What?!? You make it sound like he was at the Tory conference in Birmingham last week.

Not a fan of bumming then?

But is that 'defence of NATO allies' who were getting overrun, by say Russia, or China, or say Turkey goes AWOL and invades Greece, using conventional weapons? And the UK would drop the bomb.

You seem to have mistaken me for the Prime Minister mate.

Personally, I think people would say "naughty, naughty Vlad and tut very loudly".

MAD is kinda tricky to come back from.

It is only 'self defence' if they are attacked with nuclear weapons.
