    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I've seen reports on Putin's support a few days ago. That was well before Russian people knew much about what's going on, before Putin imposed a 15 year jail threat on those who dare watch the BBC or CNN or some other non-Russian news and before images of Russian helicopters being shot down and...

    cut a piece of cardboard, 36cm L x 10cm H to see first if it would go inside the triangle. you also need to make sure that the bottom end of the cardboard clears the chainring. Best post some pictures of the cardboard in your bike frame, we'll check that it will work for you.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Putin threatens the West casually with nuclear war, especially with smaller yield weapons. We never did the same to him. When the people of Russia see that their real security is under threat, I am pretty sure that a vast number of Russians can see the folly of Putin for what it really is.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the point is we want to live in a civilised world where the only war is the one that wipes us all out, the very proof that we are not civilised enough. Putin must not succeed in making an estimated 15% of Ukrainians refugees. I am sure you see that as a crime against humanity. Think about it...

    you need a long M8 bolt to hold the tool like this: I bought one of those sold on ebay for £2-£3 but forgot what they are called.

    Putin can't fail unless the West is willing to stop him.

    don't take the situation in these cities as proof that Putin has won militarily.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    we don't know if Putin will accept less than what he has asked, also, there is no way Putin can annihilate Ukraine. He may destroy more of the towns and cities but his army will be severely hit as the Ukrainians will get better at hitting back.

    Putin made his conditions impossible for Ukrainians to accept. The West has also made it impossible for Putin to back down. He'd be finished if he did. Yes, I still think Zelensky did the right thing for Ukraine and Russia because the only alternative is far worse: Zelensky will have to go onto...

    Zelensky did the right thing. The world would be a better place if we have more Zelensky and fewer Putin.

    NATO has now to ratchet up a bit to tell Russia that it will defend civil population of Western Ukraine with a no fly air corridor. Increases in defense spending is not the answer, only mutual self destruction can persuade Putin that he's not winning.

    no, we are not going to forget it but we should not act hastily either, it will just make matters worse. The reason Putin can do what he did is because the Russian generals and a sizeable chunk of the Russian population support his action. We have to unite as many countries as possible to...

    if that were true, the air will be poisoned with radioactive dust. Nobody wins anything, nobody can help anyone.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it may not be possible for NATO to stop Putin now, leave alone any earlier. It's already difficult for Europe to unite on defense, then there is the issue of millions of Ukrainian refugees. However in the longer term, the Russian people may just see that Putin won't win and decide to replace him.

    if NATO aircraft, on loan to the Ukrainian air force, shoots up some Russian tanks then it would be reasonable to expect Russians to retaliate. NATO has time on its side. It has to drag out until common sense prevails.

    by the same token, those Ukrainians who chose the West did so much better economically than those who chose Russia. Those in the middle voted largely for Zelenskyy. He got 73.2% of the votes in 2019. Zelenskyy himself came from a Russian speaking southeastern region of Ukraine.
