MPs crammed into every corner. Members of the House of Lords packed the public galleries high in the chamber. Parliamentary staff huddled close to peer through the stone arches, almost in the roof, to watch.
...Then alone at his desk, only a Ukrainian flag for company, President Volodymyr Zelensky appeared on screens to speak to MPs and, of course, to the country.
...Yet the message that brought tears to some MPs' eyes was Mr Zelensky's utter defiance.
...He said: "Just in the same way you didn't want to lose your country when Nazis started to fight your country, you had to fight."
A student of British history perhaps, a savvy media operator, or both, Mr Zelensky evoked Winston Churchill's most famous speech of defiance, in which he promising to fight "on the beaches", saying: "We'll fight in the forests, on the shores, in the streets."
It was the first time any foreign leader has addressed the House of Commons directly.
Everyone watching will remember it. Everyone watching will hope that one day Mr Zelensky might have the chance to speak here in real life.

Yeah, that pretty much blows the “Trudeau black face” out of the water. Zelenskyy wins. 😆
“Zelensky’s act is getting old.”
So is yours. There is no barbarity so wicked nor an act so craven that you won’t defend it so long as your idol Putin does it.
Ukraine had a deal. Russia violated it.
Let Russia withdraw from all of Ukraine, including Crimea, and then we can talk. Oh, and we want Putin’s head.
And it ain’t just McGruff, Putin has lots of bootlickers right here on FR. They cheer when handsome and brave Ukrainian lads get killed by Russia’s Mohammedan combatants.

Yep. Well, Lumen and Cogent are primary internet backbone providers and they announced that they’re ending service to and from Russia.
The fun thing now will be to watch and see how many pro-Putin FR accounts suddenly go silent when they can’t get out of Russia, even on VPN.
I’ll be making note of the accounts that go silent. You should too.
The British press just loves this little puke.
_________________________________________________________
I don’t know how much the British love this “little puke” but the fact is the citizens of Ukraine love this “little puke” as you call him. People are dying by the thousands supporting him. Whatever you think of him his own people love him. There is probably some reason they love him so much and it likely isn’t because they think he is a Nazi.
Oh shaddup. You are really getting tiresome.What a putz.
He does play a mean piano. I mean the chopsticks are great.
Yeah.
Putin never gets old.
He is so great /s
Who F’ing cares.
Mercy flush is a constant turd in the punch bowl floating around FR. If you are not ready for WWIII over Ukrainian independence then you are a “Stooge of Putin”
Biden wants this war as much or more than Putin does.
Thank you.
Nope. It’s not Russia and you don’t get to silence anyone who doesn’t worship Pidor Putin.
I enjoyed your homepage, Trolls 101.
As I’ve noted here previously, I had a relative deep in the W Bush campaigns.
In the late 1990s, I mentioned FREE REPUBLIC and was amazed at how much she knew.
She explained that volunteers are asked to write letters to the local papers and are graded on how many are published; the internet was the new thing.
They are out there, typing away.
And the “deep in the Hurtgen Forest” fake poster...
“Mercy flush is a constant turd in the punch bowl floating around FR.”
Oh, I see I have a new Russian friend! (-:
And I am not a turd, I am a golovorez. Get your insults straight or don’t use them at all Comrade Podonok.
Glad you enjoyed my Troll 101 primer! Feel free to suggest any edits that can improve it.
It's not his choice to make. Zelenski is just a puppet. He's not actually in charge of anything.
