Pellegrini looks a quality first
Complete contrast to the limited JGB. Everything he has done this half has been top quality

Of everything this batshit crazy White House has done over the last few weeks, this has to be the absolute worst. They're essentially trying to depose Zelensky! The Hhite House wants an election. That is long overdue. I woudl say if a fair election is held Zelensky would have about a zero chance of...

Too late now. A modest increase in defence spending particularly around industry in 2014 followed by a more substantial boost in 2022 may have given us the chance to run a different course.
