Very odd how so many UK 'progressives' are relaxed about a bunch of masked-up blokes in black combat gear threatening woman in the centre of a major city.

My contempt for 'Stop the War UK', Corbyn and Abbot knows no bounds. These people would have been against defending Poland in 1939, they would have supported the Stalin-Hitler pact of the same year. I'm proud the UK is supporting Ukraine with weaponry against the imperialists.
