A2 in that piece, an answer to "How much military aid does Ukraine receive from European countries and Canada?" seems to suggest otherwise to me.
I think the entire article suggests that the EUs overall contribution has been just as valuable if not more so.

FLACs would be nice, but it's got to be better than putting up with vinyl.
Eh, say what? You surprise me Slim. Vinyl is king

🇪🇺 EU 446
🇨🇭 Switzerland 351
🇺🇸 USA 148
🇬🇧 UK 24
Come on Johnson! Get your finger out! Any reason for the stalling?
Still think this question needs answering. With so many Russian oligarchs having made their homes here and invested so much of their ill gotten gains in the UK why has its response been so poor compared to the likes of the US and the EU?
Quote from: Nick on March 03, 2022, 09:25:10 PMInteresting analysis, to me it looks like the Eu has led the way, the U.K. is very much on the sidelines. Massive amounts of defensive weaponry sent to the Ukraine and an open refugee policy shows how the EU has strengthened itself.
German and French leaders have met and spoken with Putin in the flesh, none of that for our clown of a leader. Ukraine, Georgia and Albania now all looking to join the EU.
Looks like we walked out of the best club in town. Farage and his mob are looking increasingly isolated, I can see the U.K. rejoining the EU far faster than we thought if we survive this.
Quote from: Hugh on March 03, 2022, 09:19:51 PMI think Boris might just have grown up in the last few days. I wouldn't wish the responsibility that rests on his shoulders on my worst enemy. If this opens his eyes to the realisation that his front bench requires a massive Spring clean then my respect for him would grow immensely. I think there's a decent man in there somewhere if he kicks the kidology into touch and recognises that he was indeed blinded by his blind ambition. Lose the three stooges please Boris.
