Two words from Susie Dent:
IQUINATION: The action of polluting, defiling or corrupting
ARSLE: To find yourself going backwards in a task rather then making any progress
Perhaps it’s just me but has the constant pointing out of Russia’s intent to invade the Ukraine, started to sound like they are taunting Putin to do so? All the posturing and threat of sanctions by the West as the apparent keepers of the peace, looks like they are goading him into invading? Not for one moment do I think that NATO would fight Russian troops if the invasion went ahead and frankly for all the talk, there is little we can do to stop him. We never hear the view from the Russian’s without it being couched in terms as the West interprets it. Why is the West always right and Russia always wrong. Ukraine is a sovereign independent democratic country and of course Putin should not invade but this does not mean we are always in the right and they are always in the wrong! Having said that with all the things Russia has been responsible for in the last decade they are definitely not to be trusted.
A question? How would you feel if Liz Truss turned up and you were told she is the Foreign Secretary of the UK? No wonder we have become an international joke. It’s bad enough that Boris is whipping round Europe but bloody hell, what are we doing? We used to be a bastion of diplomatic strength, even if we cocked stuff up all the time, now we are just a bunch of clowns!
Do you think Boris will wonder whether to answer the Met. Polices questionnaire with either “I got Brexit done” or “Fastest vaccine rollout in Europe” ?
Stay well
