The BBC's Steve Rosenberg quoted a recent article in a Russian paper , saying that when dictatorships fall, they fall FAST ...

(Brave journo there !)

Example of a dictator falling, and the Press and neighbouring countries being asleep --



Whoops !

Canadian/American journalist Diane Francis , unforgettable succinct analysis of Trudeau on substack summarised (by me from memory) --

' he inherited his father's name and mother's good looks, never had a real job, and was groomed for leadership by the family party '

She's been going to Ukraine for thirty or so years .

Keir Starmer's brother has died, aged only 60.

He had to cancel a previous planned holiday due to the summer troubles, he has now had to call off his current plans for a break due to this.

Not much luck on the vacation front as PM so far.

We seem to be under attack...

Meanwhile, it would appear that Kemi has made an idiot of herself. Nice bit of ammo for SKS next PMQs...
