A few days ago, the ‘coalition of the willing’ (Starmer, Merz, Macron and Zelenskyy) met in London to hammer out the latest words on paper, a new military pledge to support Ukraine against Russia.
Both British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and King Charles III agreed to a renewed military effort that included British armed forces securing Ukraine territory according to their plan.
Three days later, British Defense Minister John Healey resigns, citing insufficient funding of military. Seriously folks, you cannot make this up. This comes on the heels of the U.K. borrowing ships from Germany in order to participate in NATO exercises led by the U.K.
LONDON – UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer suffered a fresh blow on Thursday after Secretary of Defense John Healey resigned over a budget dispute, saying the government is not willing to give the British Armed Forces the “resources they need.”
It’s not fair to laugh…. but boy howdy, it’s difficult not to.




They absolutely live in Clown World.
Unfortunately they push that world onto us.
We are all experiencing the consequences of their decisions.
Yeah the Beatles came to hold our hand.
They came specifically to hold our wallets, and were never shy about it.
The only thing we have that never was pushed on us was their music. For the rest of it, they didn’t push anything on us, we excepted it.
That is on us……….
The lived off of US funding NATO, failed to maintain their own defense and now this. Brits need to get out of EU and reboot their country.
Brits need to FLY the white flag…and accept that they are a mohammeden Nation! And another emasculated one at that….Lawrence would be PROUD!
They have redefined the word “pathetic.”
Idiots!
🤡🤡
They?
We need to leave nato immediately. Today would work.
Lead with what? His police force is designed to intimidate the native English population. His army would be arrested if they showed up somewhere. His navy is stuck in port or just on paper. His Air Force would meet the fate of the Ukrainian Air Force. His own citizens find him repellent. Maybe he’s just like Winston Churchill too.
A pantomime nation.
And now threatening to jail tech CEOs for 5 years for not installing spyware and digital IDs on their phones.
Priorities, priorities…
Good luck with that.

A Potemkin village of a nation.
The British Army has more cavalry horses than tanks and the Royal Navy has more admirals than warships.
In fact, the entire British Army numbers 80,000 men which was their casualty count in three days of battle in World War One at The Somme. Like the rest of Europe the British are relying on the American taxpayers to pay for their defence.
That’s quite sobering. It won’t be long before either Argentina claims the Falklands or the Falklanders declare independence.
Doubt that Bro.
Winston Churchill? I was referring to George Bush comparing Zelenskyy to Churchill. I hate having to explain my jokes and take full responsibility.
No losers ever deserved each other. 1 killed his wife and the other hilled a million.
How is the UK leading the military mission in Strait of Hormuz? They don’t even have a ship there! None of the submarine fleet is seaworthy…
They have been talking tough while having no ability to fulfill their promises.
This is shameful. Starmer has prioritized welfare over defense.
He has prioritized foreign invaders over indigenous Brits, Irish and Scots.
its not there, its the Ukraine mission.
In my opinion, Twotier and his party prioritise illegal aliens and other migrants over national security and the indigenous citizens of the UK.
Yes, with welfare. They took the 2 child cap off child benefits which means the invaders get a windfall since they have very large families (along with all the other benefits).
I think their boomers are seaworthy. Just the fast attack subs are kaput.
They have 4 boomers. “They maintain one on the seas at all times.” No doubt being in port is counted as at sea.
They have one SSBN. The other three are in maintenance / in port.
5 nuclear attack subs – all in port.
From the above photo, Observer, Charles is looking a bit bedraggled. Wrinkled suit (surely not bespoke) and shirt, pocket kerchief limp and formless. He looks as if his “carer” dressed him. Not that it matters given everything else but….😳
“bedraggled, limp and formless”
That is it in a nutshell, Betsy!
His mother, always bandbox perfect, would box his ears.
If I were any closer, I’d do it…not for his decrepit and shoddy appearance, but for the breaking of his Constitutional oath and his adherence to the barbaric cult he has so shamefully adopted.
Starmer…not fit to govern.
Charles…not fit to rule.
As for Healey per his resignation letter…
“…proud of what we have done…as a Labour government”???
People have been hanged, drawn, and quartered for less.
Oh wow! You are right…. I didn’t pay attention to Charles in the photo, but he does look rather disheveled.
Great observation!
That’s ironic considering that the headline for the picture speaks of an “ironclad agreement” between Zelenskyy and the King.
There certainly isn’t anything “ironclad” about the King’s appearance. It looks like he slept in that suit.
Considering his somewhat royal lowness has a literal stable of suits – and a valet who dresses him – there’s no excuse for him looking bedraggled.
The British taxpayer spends good money on
Putting lipstick 💄 on that pig 🐖
Mr. Bean will lead the British empire after Stammer tenders his resignation.
This “Mr Bean” in his natural incarnation?
I’d take him!
Believe me, worth a listen.
Rowan Atkinson on “Free Speech” Someone with a public profile needed to say it, which he did.
MR BEAN FOR PRIME MINISTER!!!
(I give him a pass on his thankfully short reference to the repellent Obama.)
Yes I agree
At this point either Rowan Atkinson or Mr. Bean would be an improvement. Despite his foibles, Mr. Bean always manages to save the day after much catastrophe. Assistance from Ophelia Bhuletova might also be necessary!
Ticky ticky do…
He will land a cushy gig with either the WEF or the EU city-state enclave known as Brussels.
It’s what he is aiming for eventually. Deposed autocrats in their own countries always fail upwards.
See Mark Rutte, kicked out as PM of the Netherlands, reinstalled as head of NATO.
Starmer’s Labour predecessor, the appalling Tony Blair, was always and forever auditioning for Von Der Leyen’s postion while was PM of Britain. And while he never realized his European “Dream of Glory”, he hasn’t stopped trying.
Yes, the reinstalled Rutte indeed; good example. I know some Hollanders that think he should be in prison.
Many I would have thought.
The fact that both UK & Zelenskyville are laboring to present this as anything substantive or serious is already a self-indictment.
America’s sad, stupid, and destructive Democrats continually portray themselves as responsible adults when criticizing DJT, which is hilarious after the Biden administration.
Sooner then later, Zelensky will be hopping a midnight flight to parts unknown. And Starmer will probably be with him
Not Starmer, unfortunately. And don’t forget that he doesn’t pass laws on his own. Parliament has been complicit all along.
And the inbred royal family.
i’m pretty sure King Charles and his family of inbreds are going to be on that same damn flight because the Muslims are going to get tired of them real soon.
Sorry Charlie
Z will be looking for a 1 bedroom flat over a garage somewhere in Montana on a hilltop with no roads just to avoid Putin and the FSB.
As a key NATO member, exactly how they able to help us in any serious war fighting capability, should that need arise? At this point, maybe they can staff a mess hall?
But don’t let them do the cooking. Please!
Watching episodes of ‘One foot in the Grave’
What load of Palotaes.
Russia could attack anytime before 2030.
Why in blazes should anyone think Russia would attack a Mickey Mouse islamic country like Britain – it just goes to illustrate the stupidity of a guy who cannot even spell our surname properly.
Russia doesn’t have to attack Britain. Britain is doing a fabulous job of attacking itself!
that’s a sad fact and they’re all racing for the back door
🎯
If Russia invaded Britain it would actually be a rescue mission!
But he has Ross Perot ears, that should count for something.
Yes he does!
President Putin has publicly asked…and answered… the same rhetorical question.
When a nation like Britain…and the rest… is in the unremitting process busy destroying itself…
Well didnt US congress just commit to a new astronomical amount for Ukraine? This just gets more ridiculous by the day. Here we are, cutting costs and getting rid of fraud to save money, and the Ukraine vacuum just keeps ramping up.
Kweir Stammer and his merry band of thieving imbeciles have Champagne dreams, and beer budgets, and the support of Elizabeth’s dimwitted boy certainly isn’t helping. All while not so great at all Britain, is flirting with civil war…
About sums it up…
Good grief – how is it “Keir Starmer’s A Wanker”, along with KC3, can even make such representations without first consulting with and getting sign off from the Def. Minister???
Does one hand not know what the other’s doing???
Some politicians believe that their job is simply to promote rhetoric. Well done Starmer, Zelensky, Charles, et al.
You really can’t blame the guy for resigning. After all, how much “defense” can one provide with a few water pistols and a couple of BB guns?
Those who say the Crown is a bystander are so incorrect. Zelensky visits King Charles and suddenly Britain takes the lead in Ukraine. Not only that, committed troops to serve inside Ukraine.
I think perhaps they are setting a trap for the U. S. If any British soldier is harmed, it constitutes an act against a NATO member country. Meaning the U.S. has to respond.
The US does NOT need to respond. Article 5 states that no country is compelled to respond, they can decide on their own what to do.
There is now precedence set that the US does not have to respond. Recall NATO’s non assistance.
An attack on a NATO soldier in the UKR is NOT and article 5 attack.
With the new massive funds provided to Zelensky by liberal politicians and RINOS, Charles must have gotten some meaningful information in an envelope, in order to so quickly take “meaningful” action. Putin must be really, really scared now ~ as money exchanges hands while nothing else changes …
Ukraine has launched missiles and drones against 5 NATO countries. England is on her own.
Ukraine is not a NATO member country. By that logic we would have been compelled to attack Argentina during the Falklands war.
Wow, when did the mighty & once feared 🇬🇧 nation, become a threat to only the island nation of Bermuda?!
What a joke, thank God they have Canada’s military capabilities in their corner! 🙄
Gloriana must be flipping somersaults in her coffin.
Charles and William are getting ready to have no empire. Ireland, Scotland, England. Take back your country from the dark forces of the cabal. Take to the streets. Tommy Robinson, we are with you. The cracks are getting larger.
If the Royals are screwing up the UK I vote to let Harry back in the family.
Tough choices ahead for the leeches of the UK –
Pay for your own ‘national defense’, which the U.S. Taxpayer is now doing, or pay for all of the FREE socialized benefits, made possible courtesy of the U.S. Taxpayer.
Signature is weird
Looks nothing like John or Healey
Is resignation valid?
Thank you for posting. I thought I was alone in noticing… An oddly specific signature for not looking anything like the name.
if I read this information anywhere but here I would never believe it but because it’s here, I totally believe it and I’m sitting here laughing my ass off. just so you know you’re in the right place, Sundance predicted all of the stuff that’s coming true.
My analogy: Don Quiote being defeated by a windmill.
Leading in Hormuz and the Artic! The smallest army, navy and airforce in our history, recruitment in the toilet while the arrogant Lord Hermer and his chums legally threaten and harass our military, our institutions infiltrated by who knows how many CCP operatives – it’s a Greek tragedy.
The US needs to take away UK nukes ‘on loan’ from the US before the UK does something stupid. Our nukes are on their subs, not sure about other UK nukes that may be out there.
They have already shown the capacity for this great an evil.
I don’t think it is out of line to begin travel warnings to the UK.
Argentina should take back the Falkland Islands / Malvinas. The UK has no way to defend them. This would be utter humiliation for them!.
Agree!
Boy howdy, Sundance. It’s a race between Britain and Canada to see which fails faster and falls further…..
Both countries have World Class Wankers for PMs sitting atop atrophied, hollowed-out fighting forces. I want to give the edge to Canada and its self-exterminating MAID program.
Can we use some of Iran’s withheld funds and hire some indigenous baby seal clubbers to put them out of our misery? 🙁
It also comes after word leaks the UK cannot put any Attack Subs to Sea to protect Boomers. Britannia once ruled the seas. Today they can’t make it out of the bath tub. Some Ally.
Much The EU’s Force Structure is in the same fix. NATO indeed has outlived its usefulness.
Fast attack boats don’t protect boomers. Boomers are solo boats who keep very quiet in their op area.
Fast attack boats have as one of their missions to protect aircraft carriers. Since the UK carriers have a propulsion shaft problem that keeps them in the nearest available shipyard one could theorize that the UK doesn’t need any fast attack boats.
I would rather fight Brussels and London than Moscow.
Starmer’s Monty Python government
Stammer’s Flying Circus
I advise the Labour party to entice Madonna to run for Prime Minister of Great Britain. She fits their mindsets perfectly. Plus, she considers herself a great artiste! Maybe Lewis Hamilton of Formula One fame might date her after Kim Kardasian dumps him. They belong together.
Madonna and Hamilton, racing to the dumpster (painted green, of course) faster than a speeding bullet!
Starmer truly is the epitome of Fabianism, socialism, communism, totalitarianism, and the Labour Party–well done Sir!
Ghalibaf Hits Back At Trump Ahead Of Threatened Bigger Bombing Tonight: “Endless Quagmire You’ll Be Stuck In For Years”
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-attack-renders-ceasefire-meaningless-iran-says-us-forces-disable-yet-another-tanker
What national security risks? Never any real critical discussion and an argumentative audit of these various leadership individuals statements. Clearly debate and answer what risks? USSR is gone, Russia is seeking a peaceful arrangement in Ukraine and definitely not in any way shape or form taking an offensive posture against western Europe. No discussion what do ever of diplomacy, nope just all the same old military industrial complex shtick
Theyre counting on Russia killing their troops so they can bleat…”NATO we ve been attacked go after Russia now”.
They have no credible armed forces so they need the US in the fight. All their money goes to entitlements which they also cant afford without outrageous tax rates.
Its mind blowing to see our side is the bad guys. Our side wants to set the region ablaze.
Un effing believable.
We should get down on our knees and thank God that He gave us another term in office for President Trump.
Imagine how the pathetic clown show known as “the coalition of the willing” would be affecting the United States if Kamala Chameleon or Dementia Joe were in the White House.
President Trump is putting it all on the line to defend We The People from these inbred globalist turds.
Pray continually!
They have sunk to a new low of impotence and irrelevance. And despite this, their number one priority is to destroy their homeland and citizens via mass migration. Their number two priority is to destroy their homeland and citizens by adopting a managed decline / green energy policy. And, their number three priority is to destroy their homeland and citizens by escalating a conflict with one of the globe’s largest nuclear powers.
As Jordan Peterson would no doubt say, “Hey Starmer, you might consider cleaning your room (deal with national problems) first, before convincing Putin to drop a couple of nukes on Londonstan.”
You just can’t make this stuff up!
Starmer, et al, are truly delusional and desperate to do literally anything that might suggest a hint of relevance. Zelensky is truly mentally deficient to have hitched his wagon to these clowns.
This labor defense minister is full of c**p. Labor governments dont do defense or military. How many ministers can starmer lose–this isnt the first–before he’s forced to resign? A nice outcome of britains collapse is that they may be able to get rid of the imbecilic inbred royal family
Starmer, Merz, and Macron resemble the Keystone Cops. Putin must be laughing his arse off.
To quote Neville Chamberlain:
“I have in my hands a piece of paper…”
Is that a rat mask, or does he really look like that? And what is wrong with that king fellow?
Maybe y’all already saw this, but if not >>
It’s a short take on important details surrounding Ukraine, Iran, Israel and the U.S.A.
BTW: The Aubrey/Maturin series of novels by Patrick O’Brian is an expert’s insight into how British intelligence has, for centuries, used manufactured instability among the nations to protect their empire. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aubrey%E2%80%93Maturin_series
“Patrick O’Brian” is the pseudonym of Richard Patrick Russ. During WW2 Mr. Russ was an active intelligent agent. During the remainder of his civilian life he was steadfastly secretive about his wartime experience. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_O%27Brian
So, instead of building up their defenses with NATO money, they’ve re-purposed the funding to accommodate the invaders. Now the truth is out – they have no modern national defense.
Helpless, like their leader Starmer. I cant believe what I am seeing, and it’s likely much worse than they’re letting on.
In effect, the British government is attacking the British people. They have used British tax money and money that should have gone to NATO to fund an invasion and attack on British citizens. It goes even beyond treason.
Here’s what they refuse to acknowledge: that Russia is winning, decisively and slowly. They demonstrate the continued ability to sustain warfare without supply or other problems, and EU/NATO simply cannot manage to do the same! If WW3 started, it would end in two weeks due to lack of … well … everything. On one side, but not the other.
Bessent Pulls Trigger On Using Frozen Funds To Reimburse Gulf Allies: ‘Iran Will Pay’
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/bessent-pulls-trigger-using-frozen-funds-reimburse-gulf-allies-iran-will-pay
How in THEE world can British “leaders” talk such a great game when they have *NOTHING* with which to back it up?!?
It’s almost daily that I see stories of their military weakness…….but they lead the “coalition of the willing”. Ooooooookay…..
They are not ABLE to do anything militarily.
They have become less than paper tigers.
Paper “puddy tats” doesn’t adequately ridicule their military weakness.
The Brits who fought WW2 would be utterly disgusted with how far Britain has fallen.
But hey, they are woke leftists, and somehow they view that as a positive.
Reality is gonna hit them HARD. Sooner, rather than later.
They have no Churchill. They cringe at the thought of a Churchill.
Churchill fought for Britain. Current leadership fights to give it away.
Mind bending…..
House Rejects Trump-requested Short-Term FISA Extension Before Friday Deadline
To say that they are delusional is now an understatement and to think that it’s from this place that they are destroying their countries. *shaking my head*
This isn’t just delusional, it’s wreckless and this precisely the plan, the wreck the place.
That Europe will wind up at war isn’t an IF, it’s a WHEN.
There are plenty of smart people saying that they in fact already are there.. look today at Belfast.
And the problem today is that Americans are all sitting here watching their governments use funded human trafficking as weapons of mass destruction upon their own people.
No, we’re not bailing them out and in fact, America needs to distance ourselves from this pre-war preparation to the greatest degree that we can. We should demand this happen actually.
President Trump announces tonight’s BOMBING CAMPAIGN against Iran will be even “BIGGER” than last night
“There will be MORE bombing tonight. It’ll be bigger, more powerful.” ??
“They’re FINISHED. The media refuses to write it. We can walk in there TOMORROW. We could take soldiers — I don’t want boots on the ground. We could put a small group of soldiers and take over the whole place. The media is crooked, just like our elections!

The UK doesn’t need to go to Ukraine to find the enemy. Ask Stephen Ogilvy, he’ll tell you.
Get the USA out of NATO today….Germany, France, and England want American youth dying on European ground yet again. If we are going to provide armed defense…protect the SW from this damnable Mexican Invasion!
Can’t fund the mus invasion and the military, so the military has to give.
The US seems to be pretty hands off on this matter, which is good. It is an opportunity for these three sometimes great European nations to test whether they can accomplish anything significant these days. Manning up in mere words won’t hack it. What a mess they have allowed in themselves, with foundations crumbled to dust.
The British are behind keeping the Ukrain war going as well as backing Iran. Go here for some useful insight:
