Apparently now zelensky wants to talk to discuss peace
I suppose Russia will be taking the industrial heartland no doubt as a buffer zone and soon the Ukrainian people will start thinking about the cost of a war that should never of happened
Mind you electing a comedian as president now is no laughing matter

There are up to 20,000 Ukrainian troops about to be encircled in 3 or 4 Cauldrons in Donbass, Azov has been defeated in the city it ran, Mariupol, rumours are that Zelensky, under the control of the CIA & MI6 since the start, wants out, this war should be over. Unfortunately, it won’t be for some time yet. George W Bush reiterated that Ukraine’s mission is to “kill as many Russians as possible”, no mention of victory or even surrender, in order to spare their soldiers or citizenry, so on it goes, now a meat-grinder for 45-year-old Ukrainian conscripts, sent out with AK-47s against T-90s. Hopefully, the Defence Ministry will allow their commanders to surrender, given that their Interior Ministry opposite numbers in Azov have already.
Meanwhile, the Sanctions system has all but collapsed, as companies access loopholes or simply ignore the rules, because they’re run by adults, unlike the EU & US.

The English Mail on Sunday not looking very Irish. The Hairy Bikers and yet more Wagatha for it’s front page. Still, I have to laugh at last week’s circulation figures for April 2022. It’s now selling 41,455 copies in Ireland – compared to over 100,000 not so long ago. That’s a drop of over 700 on previous month or just under 10,000 in last 12 months. It absolutely amazes me why they persist with this strategy. People are stopping buying it in droves.

18,865 is the figure for the Irish Daily Mail and that includes Saturday where all papers get a big bounce. They sell 18,066 Monday to Friday. They were selling over 50,000 not so long ago. I appreciate all papers are losing print sales but the Mail is falling a lot faster than others. There must be a reason for this, my guess is that it no longer qualifies as an Irish paper going by the amount of English articles in it. It is just a copy of the UK version with a small number of Iris stories in it.

The Sindo reports that ” The Government has been secretly warned that the arrival of tens of thousands of Ukrainian refugees into towns and cities across the country poses a risk to social cohesion and integration, particularly among deprived communities.
” Ministers have also been told that the current humanitarian response could become unsustainable in the coming weeks, with a risk that those displaced by the war in Ukraine may not be able to secure accommodation, education, income support or access employment. ”

Is it not a fact if a country attacks a EU member the EU steps in as like NATO once an attack is on one member it’s on all members
So knowing that why do they need to join NATO considering France Germany and Italy are members of NATO plus the nations that encroached on Russia’s border who joined NATO
Answer what I can see is it’s to provoke Putin yet again
But unless Turkey agrees then they cannot join
SOQ
Turkey has being trying to join the EU for so long they know that because they are Muslim, it is not going to happen- so Erdoğan is using the opportunity to extract maximum benefits from NATO.
Fair enough- that is one of the things the Turkish people employed him to do.

The conflict was gamed out by The Rand Corporation for the US government, long before this kicked off. The US wants to weaken and unbalance Russia and the cost in weapons supplied and Ukraine blood does not matter too them
Ukraine has already lost access to the Sea of Azov and may well lose access to the Black Sea also if Odessa is taken as some kind of retribution for the Maidan massacre.
It would be naïve to think that what has been won on the field at a massive cost of Russian life, will be given away at a negotiation table. To me it looks like Ukraine will end up a smaller land locked country, when eventually the dust settles and a peace resumes.
Outstanding link and reference thank you Gerry
It’s little nuggets like this which still make Broadsheet endure
SOQ
Agreed- it has been floated for some time now that a smaller landlocked EU funded Ukraine will be the outcome. Possibly taken over by Poland, but they are not too found of the Nazis either.
The 40% Russian speakers never called for separation, but given the way they have been treated, I doubt if many will object to such a new arrangement. Being banned from speaking their native language is bound to have left them more Russia friendly.
The east is the resource rich part of Ukraine apparently, so it will pay for itself. The Bandera crew, or what is left of them, will move westwards, as there will be no place for them in the east.
Rumours of Zelenskyy turning up at Davos may explain his new diplomatic soft speak. Russia’s stated objectives were to denazify and demilitarise, and that is exactly what they are doing.
Came on this article, October 2021, pre poxy proxy war and not complimentary.

India China are massive nations hungry for what Russia can sell them and let’s face it the EU UK USA are dependent on China for everything from bras to electronics to rare earth minerals to create clean energy

surveys have found a similar basket of grocery shopping in Northern Ireland is 8% cheaper than in GB – now I wonder what could possibly be causing that divergence. That is of course why the Tory ultras hate the Protocol so much because it shows Brexit up for the complete con job that it is in reality – but that’s what you happens when you let a myopic ideology and the self delusions of exceptionalism trump economics all aided and abetted by a compliant and complicit rabid right wing press owned by foreigners and tax exiles
“In my opinion, based on currently available information, Monkeypox is a virus and disease which is endemic in Africa, emerges sporadically after transmission into humans from animal hosts, and is typically spread by close human contact. It is readily controlled by classical public health measures. It does not have a high mortality rate. Unless there has been some genetic alteration, either through evolution or intentional genetic manipulation, it is not a significant biothreat, and has never been considered a high threat pathogen in the past.
So stop the fear mongering, misinformation and disinformation.”
Well, the positions are not so far apart. In a recent interview, Robert questioned why so many doses of small pox vaccines have recently been bought. Are the legacy media trying to hype the fear in order to drum up Pharma business perhaps?
And I wonder why just MSM (Men Sex Men). I have made no secret that my cynicism of the pharmaceutical industry began with the AIDS scandal- something just doesn’t add up.
Anything to do with that little Fauci rodent should be questioned at all times of course.
I can’t believe it’s Monkey pox season already. I still have my Ukraine decorations up.

I like BS in a lot of ways but is there no limit to what is allowed posting?
I have to agree. This Mad guy has posted some disgusting things, and repeated them ad nauseam today, which have been taken from the peoplesrepublicofcork link. It’s becoming clear that he is actually TenPin and finding a way to post this kind of disgusting stuff here under the guise of someone pulling up the TenPin account.
As the man himself would say, todays winning entry in Dipstick of the Day is ..
I’m glad that sense has prevailed and Broadsheet has removed your more disgusting comments. You were saying about ‘Dipstick’?
I suppose it’s partly my fault Annie.
My enviable lifestyle seems to whip these same sad people into a frenzy like rabid dogs every time I tell them about sunning my chiselled body in foreign climes.
But actually it also exposes their own inadequacies and prejudices much better than I ever could do so I simply drop my love bombs and survey the resultant damage.
There seems so little joie de vivre or humour in their miserable grey lives the poor things.
For the record I would never use the pejorative term for people from Pakistan on here or indeed anywhere else.
Anyway, back to my holliers it’s bloomin’ roasting here in the Southern Med but the fragrant Lady TenPin and I have decided it’s going to be a margarita day today.
It could get messy.
Marvellous™

With 37 thousand mainly taking over hotel accommodation I can see why towns villages depending on tourism are going to be hopping mad as no tourists just Ukrainian refugees
Then of course people who cannot access a roof over their head left wanting
We are told we are going to take up to 200 thousand and EU nations 13 times our size take in 100 thousand
And we have no services
Infact is the only child psychologists position in Wexford still infilled

I thought Putin was Satan.
I thought that was Leather Jacket Guy?

Is it not a fact if a country attacks a EU member the EU steps in as like NATO once an attack is on one member it’s on all members
So knowing that why do they need to join NATO considering France Germany and Italy are members of NATO plus the nations that encroached on Russia’s border who joined NATO
Answer what I can see is it’s to provoke Putin yet again
But unless Turkey agrees then they cannot join
Turkey has being trying to join the EU for so long they know that because they are Muslim, it is not going to happen- so Erdoğan is using the opportunity to extract maximum benefits from NATO.
Fair enough- that is one of the things the Turkish people employed him to do.
SOQ I know that
Remember the flood of refugees in the med
His bone of contention is the Kurds
They want a Kurdish homeland
And it’s Turkey Syria Iraq they wats bits of
Turdawan as I call him has a problem with Sweden for giving refuge to PPK types
And Turdowan has aspirations of becoming another attiturk
And leave another Turkish empire like the Ottoman same as Putin wants his empire and the EU wants theirs and of course the yanks
Good to see one of Murdoch’s pet climate denying stooges get the boot in Oz
The conflict was gamed out by The Rand Corporation for the US government, long before this kicked off. The US wants to weaken and unbalance Russia and the cost in weapons supplied and Ukraine blood does not matter too them
Ukraine has already lost access to the Sea of Azov and may well lose access to the Black Sea also if Odessa is taken as some kind of retribution for the Maidan massacre.
It would be naïve to think that what has been won on the field at a massive cost of Russian life, will be given away at a negotiation table. To me it looks like Ukraine will end up a smaller land locked country, when eventually the dust settles and a peace resumes.

Outstanding link and reference thank you Gerry
It’s little nuggets like this which still make Broadsheet endure
Agreed- it has been floated for some time now that a smaller landlocked EU funded Ukraine will be the outcome. Possibly taken over by Poland, but they are not too found of the Nazis either.
The 40% Russian speakers never called for separation, but given the way they have been treated, I doubt if many will object to such a new arrangement. Being banned from speaking their native language is bound to have left them more Russia friendly.
The east is the resource rich part of Ukraine apparently, so it will pay for itself. The Bandera crew, or what is left of them, will move westwards, as there will be no place for them in the east.
Rumours of Zelenskyy turning up at Davos may explain his new diplomatic soft speak. Russia’s stated objectives were to denazify and demilitarise, and that is exactly what they are doing.

Came on this article, October 2021, pre poxy proxy war and not complimentary.
Well Maura it’s all going to end in tears
The EU no cheap gas and no infrastructure to pump it in from else where
Price of food sky rocketing due to shortages
That’s just for starters
And Russia will not care one fig
When will the EU finally get it that Russia can trade with non aligned EU UK or even US countries
India China are massive nations hungry for what Russia can sell them and let’s face it the EU UK USA are dependent on China for everything from bras to electronics to rare earth minerals to create clean energy
Get ready for a massive recession or even a NATO special operation to secure the needs of the west to function
We all know what happened when the Germans and french tried that

Lol everyone has their Healy raes
Surely Denis Healy Raes?
Oh Lord
Mad the Healy Raes are great they are the epitome of parish pump politics but the whole world uses parish pump politics may it be the US parish or Chinese parish or EU parish never mind the UK parish
Mind you little Leo varadkar and mehole martin often scorn the whole of the Healey Raes
They are cool and I love watching the faces of government when they start educating these muppets about what rural means
Sure remember Leo going on about rockhall being a rock in the middle of the sea
Hey, One Vowel™ – any news yet on why you think all Muslims are ragheads you racist bigot ?
Post no. 3, https://www.peoplesrepublicofcork.com/forums/index.php?threads/charger-salmons.209757/
That’s all we need to know about you Charger.
Actually the fragrant Lady TenPin and I are having a very late brekkie after tying one on last night which involved skinny-dipping and a certain amount of frivolity under the stars.
Bacon and eggs and some sort of freshly-squeezed detoxy juice sort of thing which tastes disgusting but which I’m ordered to drink.
Sunbed then final day footie are our plans for this glorious Sunday – hope everyone back home enjoys their Sunday too.

Reading the comments posted charger sounds like the jimmy savile of the internet
So when I described him as a perv wearing a gimp suit with an apple stuffed into his mouth and his misses whipping the poo out of him
I think I got it spot on
Within his attempt of coming across as a oh so witty satirist underneath there is a pretty nasty individual
Now I have been banned many times for opinions some do not like but god love his misses if he really has one

How is your Article 13.8 busted flush – sure that’s what happens when you get your “news” from a “free press” which consists of barely edited PR handouts from an endemically corrupt kleptocratic cabal faithfully transcribed for the illiterate gullible serfs, peasants and subjects by their paramedia wing (Perfidious Albion’s own Pravda and Izvestia)

surveys have found a similar basket of grocery shopping in Northern Ireland is 8% cheaper than in GB – now I wonder what could possibly be causing that divergence. That is of course why the Tory ultras hate the Protocol so much because it shows Brexit up for the complete con job that it is in reality – but that’s what you happens when you let a myopic ideology and the self delusions of exceptionalism trump economics all aided and abetted by a compliant and complicit rabid right wing press owned by foreigners and tax exiles

Dr Robert Malone’s take on Monkeypox is
“In my opinion, based on currently available information, Monkeypox is a virus and disease which is endemic in Africa, emerges sporadically after transmission into humans from animal hosts, and is typically spread by close human contact. It is readily controlled by classical public health measures. It does not have a high mortality rate. Unless there has been some genetic alteration, either through evolution or intentional genetic manipulation, it is not a significant biothreat, and has never been considered a high threat pathogen in the past.
So stop the fear mongering, misinformation and disinformation.”
https://rwmalonemd.substack.com/p/monkey-pox
Tell that to info_warless … I think he’s more on the bio-terrorist side of the argument…
” It is readily controlled by classical public health measures.” – we tried that with covid but some folks weren’t really into it… bodes well…
Anyway, I’m off to monkey around for the day… from one former monkey to a bunch of monkeys…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cYb4sOAp6A
Well, the positions are not so far apart. In a recent interview, Robert questioned why so many doses of small pox vaccines have recently been bought. Are the legacy media trying to hype the fear in order to drum up Pharma business perhaps?
And I wonder why just MSM (Men Sex Men). I have made no secret that my cynicism of the pharmaceutical industry began with the AIDS scandal- something just doesn’t add up.
Anything to do with that little Fauci rodent should be questioned at all times of course.

I can’t believe it’s Monkey pox season already. I still have my Ukraine decorations up.
I have to say there’s a raucous atmosphere in the beach bar as we watch the footy.
Safe to say Liverpool are not the most popular team among neutral fans.
I’m not sure booing the national anthem is a smart move.
There’s always fierce rivalry/hate amongst our footy teams but whingeing unpatriotic Scousers seems to unite the opposition.
The city of entitlement has scored an own goal.

Oh no! The PoxedMonk hasn’t worked to put the frighteners on the masses, so it’s back to a new variant of Covid. These aren’t variants of interest, the bould soon-to-be-retired Holohan tells us, but variants of concern. Oh lordy me! Shut the country down! Good job we have all of those extra beds opened, and extra doctors, PPE, Roqu machines that are passed safe etc.
Don’t forget we have had a total of 6 deaths in the over 65 population due solely to covid.
…get vaccinated just in case Giggser…like you did last time…take one for the team…
