    As the rest of the Coalition for further war hesitate about sending troops, Belgium now says it will do so, immediately, following a ceasefire.

    Incidents begin in earnest. In 1939 Poland was the venue; now it is Poland again.

    How do you stand it when circulating in daily life and hearing workers all around you moaning about “immigrants”, “foreigners”, “asylum seekers”?

    What do you say when people agree about some things and you begin to warm to them, but then they start on about “it’s the immigrants’ fault” and start with common racist rubbish?

    And no, there isn’t time to give them a crash course in working class unity, social history or capitalism; and they wouldn’t appreciate it or think about it anyway. They also despise Starmer, distrust Labour, support strikes, but still say “We’re British, innit?”

    It must be nice to be amongst young cosmopolitans in a mixed metropolis with university degrees. The trouble is, they might be “better educated” and not hate immigrants, but they support European rearmament and a rise in profits.

    So, surrounded by the former or the latter merry bunch every day, with fifty shots of racism on one side and militarism on the other, for every two shots of socialism we might get off, how the hell do we cope?

    Might we see, after the final round of the Romanian election, an anti-Brussels confederacy taking shape in the south-east of Europe, an anti-Zelensky trio of states: Hungary, Slovakia and Romania, allied with Serbia, and maybe later with Bulgaria too?

    Greece too has traditionally been aligned with Russia and hostile to Turkey (also a NATO member). Erdogan has rapproched with Putin since their hostilities in its southern border region with Syria seemed to fade into nothing. Turkey seems to favour negotiation in Ukraine as opposed to stoking the war, unlike most in NATO.

    Male Ukrainians not even safe from enforced conscription when living abroad. Kiev wants hundreds of thousands more for the meat grinder.

    Dragged from bars, like in press-gang times.

    I am simply pointing out that the notion that Putin is about to fall is obviously western propaganda.

    I wish a pox on the lot of them, but the only way the Ukraine war will end, ending the militaristic bravado of the likes of Starmer, Micron and Merz, is for Zelensky to lose power in Kiev.

    A state about to collapse? I very much doubt it.
