[Football] Strong from Sunak

Tories will see this as finally having a positive story. They’ll rightly ask what the position would’ve been like under Corbyn.

Doesn’t undo their utter shitness, and I appreciate NSC’s views are hardly nuanced - to the point of parody - but I applaud our nation’s position on Russia.

What on earth has Corbyn got to do with it since he has not been Labour leader for almost 4 years?

If he had won the election he would be current PM?

Just wondering when the full "Russia Report" will be published? And when the Tories will stop taking money from Russians?

Curious about that myself.

I rate you as a poster, even though I don’t think we share many political views but Corbyn?

We are still imagining what life would have been like if the unelectable Corbyn had he somehow been elected five years ago?

Seems a bit thirsty.

I sort of applaud our governments stand on Russia. Publicly they make all the right noises. Behind the gossamer thin veil, they are balls deep in Russian money and business. Sunak’s missus still trades with them.

Well Corbyn’s position on Eastern European affairs was and remains iffy; Starmer is getting rid of the detritus but is facing grassroots opposition.

Hardly seems likely given the regicide that is happening when things aren't going well. How many Tory prime ministers have we had now? Corbyn would either have been a revelation and led us to the promised land (he actually seems like he cares about people), or he'd have been a lunatic and been beheaded and replaced.

Butterfly effect; Labour winning could have meant Russia never invaded at all. Ergo this is all Dave Cameroon's fault.

I do get the need for Ukraine to defend itself, etc, but Zelensky's tone has certainly shifted away from any kind of attempt to bring about peace. Granted, it was probably a very long shot, but all I can see from this whole scenario is a long, drawn out conflict with no winners. When the big guns (literally and figuratively) get involved more heavily, who knows where it might lead...

As for Corbyn? There's no guarantee that he'd still be PM, or even that Labour would be in power, now if he'd got in. No point aftertiming and, quite frankly, it's a pointless question, because Labour ISN'T isn't running the country.

It literally doesn't matter what Sunak talks about, it always comes across as pure inauthentic cringe. At least Boris managed to make it seem like he believed some of his own BS.

It’s almost the opposite to Trump’s latest musings on the horrific invasion where he seems to imply the USA should be strictly neutral.

You can trace it all back to the death of John Smith...

Peace is only possible when the raping, murdering, genocidal invading army is removed from Ukraine. Until then there will be war.

All parties have been complicit in the Russian invasion by not removing them from Crimea 9 years ago. This is not the issue for party political point scoring on either side.

I thought this was going to be him talking about how good the albion were, but instead it's a political thread.
Why is the prefix 'football'?

Remember when boris couldn’t possibly be replaced because he is pals with Zelensky? That particular tory line was always comical but today’s photos just show what a load of cobblers it all was.
