    Just complete nonsense. Starmer basically said “eh we dont care” about venezuela and refused to comment. The thought police are imprisoning hundreds of people for made up terrorist charges with their palestine action ban. The nord stream attack was carried out by ukrainian citizens but iirc hasnt been directly linked to the government.

      Most nations in Europe and the EU didn’t manage much more than that so it’s really no reason for the Germans to distrust UK when they’re doing the same thing… and the reason is that European security is still strongly dependent on the USA, unfortunately.

      Starmer basically said “eh we dont care” about venezuela and refused to comment.

      And Starmer is the only powerfull UK politican.

      The thought police are imprisoning hundreds of people for made up terrorist charges with their palestine action ban.

      And we still saw them stoping weapons deliveries, continue support for UNRWA, agree to arrest Netanyahu and so forth.

      The nord stream attack was carried out by ukrainian citizens but iirc hasnt been directly linked to the government.

      By Ukrainian citizens with links to Ukraines special forces, which Ukraine refuses to hand over to Germany for due process and were moved out of Poland by the Ukranian embassy. Even if Zelensky did not approve it, it is still a clear sign that Ukraine considers Germany an enemy.

          The bombing of the Nordstream pipelines did not stop Germany funding Russia via Nordstream, as Germany was not funding Russia via Nordstream at the time. The pipeline was shut down and remains so, even though one of the four pipelines was not bombed. Russian gas was flowing to the EU via Ukraine for years after the bombing of the Nordstream pipelines.

              Germany and the EU need gas and it can be delivered via Nordstream from Russia. Paying for that is only fair. Obviously only as long as Russia does not fight large wars of aggression. That is why Nordstream was shut down for nearly a month before it got bombed. However Russia can change and having the ability to import Russian gas is very useful.
