    That's all well and good sticking the chest out but millions of people would die as a consequence.

    Stop the War coalition blaming NATO. Without NATO membership I strongly doubt that the Baltic states would still be independent, and Ukraine should have been invited to join long ago. Nothing but contempt for the cowards - including Corbyn.

    Millions will die if we don't do anything. Innocent people are dying right now as we speak, due to Putin.

    Can't see me agreeing with you on this. My family man head takes over. Call me a pacifist or a coward if you like and say I'm insular but as much as I empathise with the Ukranian people. I'd like to put my family first.

    Oh he will, the Americans will tell him. As has been the case for decades.

    Not saying that isn't necessarily a bad thing at present.

    @Merde Tete hope you and your family are ok. Can't imagine what all this must feel like other than being really strange.

    Oh I agree with you really, but how long do "we" put our heads in the sand and do nothing? How long before it becomes a serious problem?

    This may work short term but if everybody does nothing the danger is he just keeps going.

    We most certainly are. Although potentially not as clear cut as you've stated above..

    Irrelevant though as that wasn't my question was it? I'm not here defending or promoting any individual. I'm asking a question inquisitively - thankfully there's been a couple of useful responses, meaning I know more now than I did at 10 am this morning.

    And the essence of the point being made is completely being ignored. Because as soon as you mention Trump people lose their minds and genuine non-leading discussion becomes futile.

    Imagine those kids being greeted by these two. I admire the Klitchskos for a whole lot more than just their boxing.

    I don't get your obsession with defending him whenever he's mentioned and then claiming to not be a supporter of him and to just be adding balance etc etc... it's ridiculous and we see right through it.

    I don't see you jumping to anyone else's defence when they get unanimously hammered on here, such as Prince Andrew. Why so touchy about Trump?

    I've had a few touchy Trumps. Just stick your underpants in the washing machine and not the wash pile.
