How is Turkey in NATO lol. Kinda ridicules the organisation in itself really…
On this subject though Russia are not even winning in Donbas right now. Absolutely mad how they’ve fucked any strategy in Ukraine. Everything they’ve now lost for a stupid and illegal gamble
If anything, this Russian invasion has been great for NATO and actually strengthened it.
Finland and Sweden, two excellent militaries with lots of troops and quality hardware, are now joining and countries like Denmark and Germany are remilitarising and have significantly upped their military spending.
The invasion has also shown just how powerful NATO can be. It’s been a great showcase for NATO hardware and equipment and just how superior it is compared to pretty much anything else.
so much wastage. Senior management getting nice pay rise while doctors and nurses get real terms pay cuts.
National insurance rise money being paid for more admins and not social care as advertised.
we have the money to fund pay increases for health workers so they actally like their job and don’t leave, leaving health services in mess. (So people can actually get days off and not burnout).
But we just choose to spend it on mostly complete bollocks.
in all facets this country is just a big collection of marks, who you scam to get ahead.
The biggest scammers the government. The only way to get ahead or for any kind of social mobility is to scam and rob your way there.
