Urghh Priti Patel...

I agree WH, its devastation he is creating, total dictatorship, he could stop it, but he keeps going, how long for, and what will remain of Ukraine? imagine having family stuck there and not being able to get them safe here, being in those shoes.

I hope the fighting spirit remains in Ukraine today and every day until this ends.

So do I Pixie, it must be desperate in some areas where they're surrounded with no food, water or power. I think they will continue to fight. Turkey is sending a load of hardware like anti tank and aircraft missiles.

I don't think it will end until an end is made of Putin, he's dug himself into a hole and he's still digging.

Putin must go but we have to hope he doesn't take the rest of us with him.

Theres another attempt at a ceasefire to get civilians out of Mariupol today, I hope it sticks.

I think China is getting frustrated at it all now and has said it disagrees with NATO expansion, but it wants stability. Erdogan or Orban, one Putins previous friends are supposed to be talking to him today, lets hope they can talk some sense into him.

Seems like its another failure, not just the Russians but pro Russian seperatists are shelling those trying to leave, now an airport in Vinnytsia has been destroyed.

Zelinskiy has said he's willing to look at non NATO options for stopping the war but will not concede any territory.

I'd do the same in this situation, I think anybody would. Any help is help. I hope he has time to bring in more help.

Good luck Zelinskyy do what you need to do.

His latest tweet:

????????? ??????????@ZelenskyyUa·2hDiscussed with ???? Prime Minister #MarioDraghi the course of countering the aggression. Informed about the crimes of Russia against civilians, about nuclear terrorism. Raised the issue of support for Ukraine & consideration of our application for membership in ????. #StopRussia1,6527,50348.4K

I've thought for some time that a pledge not to join NATO might allow Putin to back off without losing face.

Putin already knows Ukraine won't be joining NATO for a few years, all this joining NATO thing is an excuse.

The latest on humanitarian corridors is that Russia has said they will give safe passage to anyone entering Russia or Belarus, not anywhere else either in Ukraine or out of it.

So much for Priti Patel and her surge of home office immigration officers to issue visa's to get people to the UK, 3 in Calais who arn't issuing visa's but telling people to go to Paris and get them there. Refugees have been through enough already, many of those trying to come here have family members already living here so whats the delay? Is it just incompetance or more "hostlie environment" policies?

It seems to be good at standing up in the Houses of Parliament and clapping though.

500 visas have been issued so far and the offices where visa's are being issued are chaotic, no proper systems to manage the numbers of people trying to access the building, people being left to stand in the cold for hours.
