No of course you wouldn’t

Well, no. That'd be because everything you post is either an outright lie, or a gross distortion of the truth, mate. Not sure whether you're sincere, but not intellectually gifted and deluded, or just lacking in self-esteem, and want to make yourself feel important by fabricating an imaginary 'truth' that nobody else has seen. You seem a not terrible person, so it's sad and pathetic to see you reduced to this, mate. Maybe 30 minutes sitting in front of a mirror woukd be good. Always happy to welcome you back to the ranks of humanity when you want. Regards and best wishes, GhF

What about this mate ?

Russia-Ukraine conflict shines light on human shields: What is this inhumane practice and is it punishable by law?

The brass neck on Staveley to come out with this. Setting her stall out early for when it almost certainly happens to her

TBF I think she has a point; football isn’t more important than life but it is a really powerful way of evading propaganda from a regime. A full Goodison or Chelsea is much harder to portray as the enemy than Johnson or Biden are.

Iran stands with Ukraine and condemns Putin.

Do you think the Russians using UPVC and ITV-2s on the USMNT will have much of an impact Mutz?

Isn't that what everyone reads?

The majority of the Russian army are conscripts who are generally under fed, under trained, under equipped. There is, obviously, an elite element but Russia relies on their munitions rather than their military forces. If they come up against NATO they will suffer exponentially...but they have the nuclear option to fall back on and the madness which seems endemic within the Kremlin would rather cut off their noses and take us all down. They have no concern for humankind and use the nuclear threat to subjugate the rest of the World. And, of course, when the population of Russia are back to queuing for bread 'just like the good old days of Soviet order' the old boys at the top of the food ladder will still be eating caviar and quaffing on fine wine. Makes me want to vote Communist.

Oh, wait!

Given the biased awful Putin hating Western media reported on racial segregation in relation to black people trying to leave Ukraine, I'm sure we'll see this reported soon enough.

Right

I am shocked…shocked I tell you. Surely Kev wouldn’t post some pro-Russian propaganda from a right wing media source without checking its veracity?!

Iran stands with Ukraine and condemns Putin.

This is great to see and long may this kind of unity continue.

In the grand game of chess though they will have half an eye on the gas/oil supply gap that they might help fill with a hearty dose of FDI and release from sanctions.
