BAD LUCK DUCK

The Russian Rouble has lost a whopping 30% of its value this morning, potential run on Russian banks - the economy has gone from strong to fucked over a weekend - Am hearing that Russias Central Banks foreign reserves being frozen too (which means they can’t support the Rouble by buying it)

How long can they keep a 15Billion Rouble a day war going?

Hyper inflation on the horizon(y)

This is becoming an accountants war:D:D
Nukes...That's the 15 billion a day sorted...👍
I should be a diplomat 🦆

Or a financial advisor. 🤔

My talents are wasted being a bus driver 🦆

Just watching Labour's Sh Culture Minister Lucy Powell on Sky. She is an embarrassment to herself gobbing off about stuff she plainly doesn't begging to understand starting with Defence expenditure.

Two hundred years ago war was described as 'politics with the admixture of other things'. It's absolutely about accountants, psychologists, electronics, you name it. There are three 'components' - the moral (the will to fight' the physical (the means by which to fight) and the conceptual (knowing how to fight). The conceptual can be a great way to rob your opponent of his means to fight without physically striking a blow and it buggers morale too..... just like a letter from the accountant!
Well I know how I reacted when I got a letter off the bailiffs and they came knocking at the door so they didn't get to rob me of anything and the letter didn't have the desired effect...
Now if I had nukes at the time I would have used em..
Instead I had to chase em down the street with an axe..👍🦆

Apparently a remark from our Liz Truss is the reason Russia put its nuclear forces on special alert:oops:

We must be really getting under his skin for that to happen:D
Putin aint about to back down. I hope we have effective missile defences. Because he IS going to send us a few. any minute now too.

Hopefully not Mick.
Tomorrow lunchtime is mixed grill & a couple pints day for me 🙁
I just ripped the top off another bottle of cheap Tesco vodka. And it went straight in the bin. Because i wont be putting it back on again..I am not easily panicked. But i have to admit, that i am really concerned at the moment. I dont think i ever wanted to be wrong, so much. I am going to be giving Vladimir a proper fucking slap, next time we meet. :)
