Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Just because you are a regular drinker, you should not assume that everyone is like you.

- RUSSIAN BLACK SEA FLEET SAYS IT HAS NO PLANS TO LAUNCH ASSAULT ON UKRAINIAN MILITARY UNITS IN CRIMEA - INTERFAX NEWS AGENCY

Hays you are gullible where did you scrape your attack news up from.........ill guess.....
one of the 300 mates you have.

it was certainly on Sky News this afternoon, though that does not make it fact either

Hague is just a headline grabber... Too indulged with his own self importance and speaking crap..

Yes indeed well said shortie. He talks through his bottom most of the time. A little similar to Cyners.

Cyners probably one of Hays mates who tipped SKY the wink.

Everybody here as a go at twitter but it gets its facts right and in a very speedy fashion too.

this sort of situation is always likely to produce rumour and counter-rumour due to the volatility of the situation

Shortie - he's a politician, they are all too indulged with their own self importance and that's one of the reasons we have this sort of stupid situation - just like we did last year with Iran. It's just a question of who blinks first, either that or some silly sod will decide to call a bluff one day and then we will be in a proper mess.

Yes well said doodles its all scare mongering and smearing these days.

Its getting out of hand.

sticky - the report on Sky - just seen the net - quotes both stories in the same article, so pays your money etc!

Seriously, what?! Kerry tells Russia 'you don't invade a country on completely phony pretexts'


Published time: March 03, 2014 11:10


The US Secretary of State spoke today of the unacceptability of invading a sovereign country on phony pretexts in order to assert one’s own interests in the 21st century. But no, he was not speaking about the United States, as one might have thought.

“You just don’t invade another country on phony pretext in order to assert your interests,” John Kerry said during an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press. “This is an act of aggression that is completely trumped up in terms of its pretext. It’s really 19th century behaviour in the 21st century.”

Kerry has also threatened to isolate Russia economically and politically and warned of potential asset freezes and visa bans, adding to media and political hype that followed Russia authorization of sending a stabilization force in Crimea on official request from the authorities.
