Russia Invades

[bfcjg]

One thing not to forget is that the Ukrainians will be getting the full on, maximum NATO intelligence

There won't be any surprises, and I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the Russians have absolutely no idea how good NATO battlefield intel is

Very good point, obviously knowledge is really vital at times like this.

[NewClaret]

Because the exposure to Russia is low. People and markets got put years ago. Apart from BP etc, but it’s very limited.

But presumably rising energy prices increase most businesses cost bases, erode margins, reduce consumer confidence, etc?

I also read (probably on here) that Ukraine produces a third of the worlds grain which presumably has disastrous consequences for food prices, etc?

[HahaYeah]

So you watch the Russian state channel, then? Jesus really did weep.

No.

I was aware of them at the Maidan in 2014 and there have been more recent reports.

Anonymous claimed they were starting a war cyber war against Russia yesterday.

The best minds in the world might just cripple Russia in a way government cannot.

Really, really hope this is true!!

Coupled with demonstrations on the streets of Russia it could really backfire on Putin. Social media will be informing the Russian people as well of the truth.

Ukraine produces 20% of the worlds grain, it was called the bread basket of the USSR. It now supplies mainly Syria, Iraq etc.

Oil and gas are our main concern.

Global gas prices will spiral out of control.

World wars start over resources.

Should we have no heat or electric, would we support going after it. Well that’s how wars start.

This might just be the time we all do none violent demonstrations to show the worlds stance against this.

That just might get the whole world against him.

[NewClaret]

ICBM’s?

[PeterWilton]

Russian ICBM’s on the move in Moscow.

Doesn't mean a thing. The ICBM's they'd use are in silos already, not on the back of a flatbed.

[PeterWilton]

ICBM’s?

Ice Cream and Baklava Mobiles.

[CombatClaret]

Anyone know why the markets are holding up so well? I thought they’d be tanking!

Buy The Rumour, Sell The News.
A lot of the negatives of the short term will already be priced in with the dips we saw from the fear of war.

Absolutely, all for show. But still..

[CombatClaret]

ICBM’s?

Intercontinental Ballistic Missile

Russian stocks were down between 35 to 50%.
A kick in the nuts for any nvestor.

Clearly part of the Putin show. ICBMs with a range of 11,000km don’t need moving 20km for anything but dick waving

[TsarBomba]

Kiev under heavy barrage.

Residents near to the airfield at Gostomel saying 50 tanks and 50 grad gathered and moved towards Kiev at 1800.

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Weird response.
Maybe they’ve changed it.

Protesting is fine, being a massive belm at protests isn't
Also attaching yourself to an object by the way of chains, glue etc is also something they'll prevent.

Like I said, nope to your original comment, protests aren't going to become illegal, they're just looking to stop the belms coming along to take them over and ruin them.

Surely Putin can’t be very popular at the moment?

Can we use this forthcoming legislation against some posters on here who seem determined to get this extremely informative and useful thread pulled?

I don’t want to derail the thread but that appears to be the current status. Not what’s being proposed.

Anyway, I think we’ll see plenty around the world this weekend and hopefully some very big ones in Russia, despite their rules.

Only thanks to the House of Lords voting down the part where police could shut down a protest as illegal if they deemed it to be too noisy. The govt have openly stated they plan to revisit that part to try and get it through.

If this goes through it is open to a real abuse of powers where the govt and police use it against protests they dont like or is maybe against them and ignore protests being too noisy when the protest is in support of them.

The fact out govt are trying to push this through should give us all real cause for concern if we value the right to protest as a cornerstone of a democratic society

Not the time or place Lancaster, besides we're all on the same side on this one.

Well apart from that balloon Haha, it seems.

Bear with me..

I got a bit twitchy a moment or two ago and singed the neighbours cat with a Molotov cocktail..

All is calm.

Russia to me is all talk and are pretty tinpot.

I actually think this has made people fear them way less.

I'll repeat what I said earlier to someone else, Canada alone has over double the oil reserves of Russia......

We probably have as well but we on global warming issues have not wanted to acces it. I agree global warming needs to b addressed, but currently we probably need uk oil.

Shut the **** up with your crap, sick of reading it. People are providing updates on this thread while you're acting like a lonely child. Seriously grow up or stop posting on here attempting to ruin an important thread.

They want to invade Taiwan, so playing this very carefully.

Interesting post from someone on most people’s foes list. Two foes fighting where many people don’t see yours or theirs posts. Kinda find that funny.

They can be shot down I think, not that I'd know if that's possible in Ukraine right now.
