Very good. Would rather fry my eggs with a solar powered battery pack every day than fund attacks on Ukraine

We need to see USA as an enemy state and not someone we can work with. Run by a moron, every decision has been dictated by the Kremlin. Time to build a European alliance to ensure our safety.

Because neither Putin nor Netanyahu have kompromat on Starmer.

Trumps compromised by Russia. I imagine it’ll all come out after he’s died or in prison after his presidency.

Not a Labour fan but I have to say on this the UK is looking the mature older statesman of the world again for the first time in my lifetime.

I’m starting to like Starmer more and more, he’s actually got a backbone and seems like he wants to do what’s right

Can’t wait for the right-wing media to tell me why this is terrible

Starmer being the first PM to stand up to America in my life time is just one more reason why he’s really grown on me.

I would rather the UK go down as the poor nation that tried to do good than the rich nation that capitulated to evil. Putin’s war against Ukraine is an attack on the sovereign right of every country to govern itself under the democratic process of its people and their collective voice.

Imagine easing the sanctions on the country intelligence services are warning you is actively supporting the country you are at war with with direct intelligence to try to kill your troops
And even worse, imagine doing it the day after you announced that with less oil on the market your country becomes richer meaning that by supporting Ukraine carrying out strikes on Russian refineries it needs to fund its war effort you admit that it would benefit you massively by forcing dependency on US oil
Trump actually just got persuaded into selling out Ukraine to Russia for no reason other than Putin put in his puppy dog eyes again

I wonder if we as voting populations around the world will learn the lesson of putting someone in power who has no sense of consequences. Not even a left or right thing, just basic competence in understanding what might play out.

Gordon Bennet, I actually agree with something Starmer’s mob is doing….

Another good call here.
Hopefully Starmer sees standing up to America when they’re wrong is popular and this becomes his way to score points with the public.
Would rather he stood up to Trump on principle but if scoring popularity is what gets him to do it I’ll take that.

Any easing of Russian sanctions is appeasing and indirectly supporting Russia and Putin.
Regardless of what you think of Keir Starmer, at least he has a moral compass, ethics and a backbone. The essential things that Farage, Badenoch and the right -wing press do not seem to possess.

Just goes to prove the adage that a week is a long time in politics. We’ve gone from speculation about Starmer lasting the month to speculation that he’ll win the next election in a matter of days.

Starmer is nailing foreign policy right now. Standing up to Trump and Putin like this sends a strong message that hopefully the rest of Europe will follow.

What a lifeline for Putin right now. Trump is just the dumbest mofo. He’s probably extended Russia’s capacity to wage war in Ukraine for another 2 years. DOH.

This is true for all states without a Putin asset in charge.

The sad thing is India will buy the russian oil and sell it to us at markup
Sad-Performer-4833 on
Its not a true reflection of the European position? Sure – we’re not buying it directly but we buy the refined products from India and are just as dependent as before
The sooner we become energy efficient the better

What will Europe do if the US does a deal with Russia? They’ll be left high and dry

Trump is a Russian asset. Everything he does is to benefit Russia in one way or another.
