Moment of russian allegedly SU-27 splash down on the Black Sea ... Today i guess with other videos being posted

The comments are brilliant!

It's not personal, but I hope the lack of a visible parachute means Russia are short one more air crew.

Parachute visible.

Dropped into the thread, noticed it had shifted up a few pages and thought it might be interesting, how wrong I was. Youngsyr Google Budapest memorandum and then explain in no more than 30 words why you don't think the UK should be involved in this war, you are INCREDIBLY misinformed.

Good news about the downing of another su27! Some of the Russian troops losses up and down the front have been truly staggering looking at reddit and other vids.

Putin on russian TV saying their air defence has a very competent friend or foe the night before shooting down another of their fighters is beautiful.

Some good news that a British company and the MoD are up to - making tracks for Ukrainian soviet era armour:

Tank tracks for Ukraine

Good to see we are on with supporting behind the scenes, we need to do more though...

I think there is more going on than their telling us, I have notice a lot of new JCB working in Ukraine also noticed a lot of bridge size steelworks moving around, they will be helping where they can.

MODS PLEASE - can someone step in and give youngsyr a ban because he’s obviously just here to cause trouble on what is a very serious thread.
Has he gone so far as to threaten a vintage Triumph yet?

German AfD figure took cash from Russian intelligence.

Not the hugest shock ever.

I'd rather they didn't.

I very strongly disagree with youngsyr's position on this, but I don't believe he's trolling.

+1

And I had a few spats with him over brexit but he's not trolling he just has a different perspective

I’m with Voltaire (or Evelyn Hall depending on your view) on this. I abhor the cancerous cancel culture that has inveigled its way into society and I detest those who promote it.

Youngsyr has a view. He has clearly expressed it and his reasons for holding it and been subjected to intellectually challenged insults because of it. If you don’t like or disagree with it then either counter with arguments to disprove his view as credible or simply ignore it. I can make my own mind up whether I agree with him or not, I do not need to be ‘protected’ from his views!

I'll also stick my neck out and say that it's unfair to compare youngsyr to CardiganKid.

CK was pro Russia (iirc)

Whereas youngsyr is pro UK exiting involvement.

Oh cmon anyone who isn't sufficiently pro ukraine or expresses a view that is not positive towards ukraine gets swiftly denounced as a russian troll/shill. Can't exactly come as a surprise to posters on the thread I'd have thought.....

I disagree. I think he's given a pretty good account of himself.

(I don't agree with his thinking, but that's beside the point.)

Yeah, burn the heretic. We need to be protected from divergent views.

I prefer the 5-minute argument over the full half-hour.

Wasn't an argument just contradiction.
