I believe that lawyers are not very suitable for supreme power. Professional deformation is harmful.

There's talk today about cutting welfare benefits and giving it to the defence department. It's on sky news.
There always seems to be money for wars !!

Talk is all it is until the government make an official announcement.

Judging by the scandals in the USA, Ukraine, Israel and Russia, colossal amounts of money are being STEALED from military supplies. And death, death, death ((((

I think the old saying is "the first casualty of war is the truth." I remember my old teacher saying that years a go.

Trump has enough common sense to do everything to end the Ukrainian war, but politicians in Europe don’t seem to have enough.
War benefits only the rich and the politicians in the service of the rich.
For Russians, Europe is no longer valuable now - the fools have cut off all trade with them.
But fools don’t understand that you can’t pay off a nuclear warhead flying at you faster than lightning.
Moreover, they have disabled SWIFT for Russians - even if they want to pay them, they won’t be able to!0 -

And yet when we spend the money we receive it goes back into the economy. The super rich however, who the government refuse to tax properly, will invest their hoarded wealth in property to save vast amounts on taxes thus driving up house prices for everyone else and will have off shore accounts where their money will just sit instead of parts of it being reinvested back into society to be recycled and create a more healthy economy. The government don’t need to cut the benefits bill to save money, it just has to tax the rich properly, the outcome of which will make the rich a little less rich, but still rich non the less. They’ve consciously chosen to punch down, something you would expect from the Tories but the fact that it’s a Labour government acting in this cruel way makes it that much harder to accept.
