Boris Johnson is deep in another crisis. This time, it really could be game over
Health Secretary Sajid Javid said he could not "in good conscience" continue. Finance minister Rishi Sunak also resigned, saying that people "rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously."

Good Morning from #Germany, which is falling as an economic powerhouse on a global scale. Germany’s trade surplus is gone. Foreign trade balance came in at MINUS €1bn in May, which is the 1st negative print since 1991 due to its energy problems & weakness in manufacturing.
Re: Russian-Ukranian War: Geopolitical Fallout
Germanys trade surplus mostly based on cheap gas and oil., that that away, most of the middle and small-scale industries would lock up first...larger ones would be barely afloat and as the gas prices go north they would also sink., best of luck with their LNG plansNRao wrote:https://twitter.com/Schuldensuehner/sta ... 6614258689

Europe is OK for the moment, there is inflation of groceries and regular consumables, mostly driven by oil & gas prices which increase transportation costs for retail and fuel costs for poorer sections who drive to work. Its summer euphoria after 2 years of covid restrictions so most people are in the mood to ignore prices, dig into savings and go have some sun n fun. But the pinch will starting biting very soon, even before the vacations are over. September is when it will fully hit home and producer price increases across the board will reflect in consumer prices. In October people will be on the streets since a cold hard winter will be looming. IMHO onree...

The UK economy is sinking. And, Boris did not help it by being the lead attack dog on the Russo-Ukraine front. From BBC:
The end has yet to come.Meanwhile, Russian foreign ministry spokesman Maria Zakharova told reporters Mr Johnson had been "hit by a boomerang launched by himself", adding that the moral of the story was "do not seek to destroy Russia".

Boris was largely pro-India and to some extent (relative to the others at least) so is the conservative party.

To recap, you responded with personal glee that Boris Johnson was taken down, purely because of his support for Zelensky. It's clear that you support Russia over Ukraine, and I am also making the assumption that you are Indian and not Russian. There are also others like you have been consistently batting for the Ukraine, resulting in many back and forth arguments on behalf of either Russian or Ukraine, that go beyond a simple rational discussion of the war, strategy and tactics etc.dnivas wrote:Pro India, but we are paying more for petrol and every other commodity.

Not sure what your point is in your latest post quoted above (unless you are somehow suggesting that Boris Johnson's downfall will address fuel prices and inflation in India), but I will reiterate mine. This is an Indian forum for an Indian POV and Indian interest above all else. This incessant cheer-leading for either side (in a manner that used to be called MUTU on BRF earlier when it came to those doing it for the US) engaged in by some posters is tiresome and annoying. I couldn't care less if either side in conflict wipes out the other as long as Indian interests are not harmed.
Re: Russian-Ukranian War: Geopolitical Fallout
Bart S ji,
Why do you consider India can afford to take such a stand off posture wrt to this conflict? Are we wrong in thinking that one side sees India as a tool or at best an accomplice for its own ends and the other side is atleast respectfully neutral to if not a genuine friend of India?
Some of us here, I for one, am rooting unabashedly for Russia because if the west gets away with this in Ukraine it will be a once more proven template to destabilize any country they don't get along with, by covert and overt means. It won't be long before India will be constrained severely by this West to play a bit role in whatever neocon script that's in vogue.
In the long term I believe India's interests will be better served in a non bi-polar world and a strong Russia is important for our own rise which has just started.
Of course you may hold different views, in which case do post them, just saying we are annoying, MUTU etc is perhaps being..... lazy ?

Again I dont want to create conflict among our own people. The west has been undermining India for who knows how long. The Leela situation, zubair all have hallmarks of western influence operation [why the fck is german ambassador talking abt zubair today]
so if the west is brought down multiple pegs I am all for it and if it takes Russia to do it and grind it in their face, I am super all for it. Yes I am gleeful that the one of the bastions of lap dog syndrome and western imperialism's govt is brought down, I am way more than happy. This conflict has been unnecessarily extended coz of the amt of money sent and weapons sent [just 6 months ago the US was howling abt the 30K bounty fake story]. I mean the hypocrisy of the fake hegemon is just shocking that they talk about freedumb and democracy and support elensky who is the anti thesis of freedumb and democracy.
So i apologize if i said something rude to you. I didnt mean it. but I am anti west imperialism and I or my family dont want to die coz of a nuke way the way things are going.
Re: Russian-Ukranian War: Geopolitical Fallout
I also wanted to add one small point. You said "I couldn't care less if either side in conflict wipes out the other as long as Indian interests are not harmed."
The problem is Indian interests are being harmed
1. Higher oil prices
2. Higher non oil commodity prices
3. Higher Food prices
4. Huge chance of a nuke conflict that could result in Millions of Indians dead
5. Political meddling by western good for nothing and deep state forces
So yes as of today our interests are substantially harmed and if some of the western neocons keep fighting for their own political survival or fight each other , then I am all for it. Hopefully with govts falling and ppl rioting , the NGO's meddling in India are slightly distracted and we get more time to work on our defenses.

Re: Russian-Ukranian War: Geopolitical Fallout
Alright, Boris Johnson is not preachy like the gnome Corbin, when it comes to India. If he wants to waste british tax money on ukraine, that is between him his tax payers and Putin. But what we can’t afford is a second big disruption in military parts and half-finished contracts when it comes to Russia. We had a terrible phase with USSR collapse. But then pakis as the primary antagonist were also busted up at that time. So we had breathing space. Contrast that with a primed up china of today, and we are in a bad scene.
We might fervently hope Kalyanis, Tatas, Adanis, SSS, Tonbo etc will pick up that shortfall if Russia goes into chaos. But truth is It will be gleefully lapped up by even more predatory western OEMs and their offsets will include preachy BS too (like how Germany won’t let H&k sell small arms but will license same to pakis).
So as EAM Jaishankar said many times, the earlier this war winds down and talks start the better for India. In that sense Boris-bhai was not exactly helpful, because he followed the harmful warmongering tradition of British PMs (Gladstone, Churchill, Thatcher and Blair comes to mind) who loves to manipulate a bigger power (US) to escalate situation against another power, when all sides seem to be on verge of talks. But that doesn’t mean Boris is going to be replaced by a more pro-India or pro-peace guy.
All said and done, ukraine military thread is a disappointment. Very small tactical situations are being conflated by posters on both sides of this argument. Like “oh look, one side put a hole in a truck, all is lost on the other side”, while the other side says the hole was already there as an aesthetic choice <facepalm>. The discussions around snake island over past two days is one such.

This is an excellent interview on YT "The Duran" show (Alexander Mercouris and Alec Christoforou). The guest is Larry Johnson, a former CIA agent. Johnson explains why (in his opinion) the West (NATO, US, EU) is screwing up really badly and may in fact be doing themselves permanent damage -- not to mention the danger of nuclear war. He explains why this war was in fact started by US neocons, who pretty much forced Russia to invade Ukr.
