So the French, Germans and Italians are still buying oil and gas from Russia at the same rate as pre-war; their blue-chips are still trading there and the lethal aid they promised Ukraine has never materialised. Apparently only a 1/5th of the missiles Germany pledged were delivered. The rest were too old. Oh and they sent some old helmets (they probably dusted off the ones with spikes on top).
Meanwhile Marcon pontificates, EU no-marks criticise Boris for saying Brexit was about freedom and our homegrown Remaintards fantasise about an EU army!

A bit like post-Brexit UK then. Areas of inconvenience but not the sort of drastic difference trumpeted by the MSM in each case.

This statement – how only the British and Americans have reacted – is so normal that it makes me feel sick sometimes.
There was an old story from our EU days: when a new rule came from Brussels, the first to sign in and agree were the Italians. The last to agree were the Brits. Then the other countries just found ways to keep their options open and cheated whilst the Brits followed the rule to the letter.
We have burnt our boats with the Russians. Significantly, we are the only country following the agreements with the environment. You can just see a time (hopefully I won’t be around) when no country is talking to us, we have no fuel to keep us warm, no industry because it is polluting, no new roads, no trains, no health service, no flights bringing in tourists, no doctors.
But we will have the 30th year of ‘Strictly’, the Rugby six nations championship, Ant & Dec, people living in communes, repeats of Dad’s Army, the first dog playing Dr Who (nickname Dr Woof), the fattest people in the world, the greatest number of people with mental health issues, the greatest number of Psychiatrists, never ending discussions about Caroline Flack, a black Fiona Bruce, 100% of people with degrees – even unborn babies could get degrees.
And I’ll miss it !!!!

…Anglosphere doing the heavy lifting in defence of freedom? Whoever could have imagined such a thing…
