For God's sake, let's give them the tools to get the job done! After Putin's insanity, the world has changed for ever, especially here in Europe, but sitting on our thumbs is not going to help - and if Putin wins this war, we are looking a decades of conflict and turbulence across Europe and beyond.

This man is a real Hero. We need more people like him, he's not Ukranian but he still fights for our freedom. Ukraine needs every men who can fight against the russian dictator! I'm not a soldier, I'm not Ukranian, I'm a 45 year old man without military training, but if my country was invaded I would fight with all my forces and with all my heart to protect the future of my children.

'His accent gives him away, he's a proud Londoner.' It gives away more than that. He's also an innit bruv. Its quite strange when you realize how little nationality matters in the west. He's a bruv living in London and fighting in Ukraine. We also had bruvs living in London and fighting for ISIS at one point. Its like a split between all aspects of identity. Your location, race, background, etc don't have to match at all, and how you feel about things is arbitrary.
