Only one really,Mick Lynch

[Siderite]

Zelensky.

[billpuntonsghost]

Zelensky..joining the WEF..the Ukrainian people will own nothing but they will be happy! What a man.😂

[Siderite]

Aye, being slaughtered by the Russians is a better position.

Have you not considered what the Ukrainians think or do you claim to speak for them?

[billpuntonsghost]

..did Zelensky consider what the Ukrainians think?

[Siderite]

You do realise most Ukrainians supported him before and even more so after the Russian invasion, so I imagine he acted perfectly in the knowledge they wanted him to act as he did. But, hey, who is Zelensky to say? There’s a guy from the UK who has never met a Ukrainian in his life to speak for their best interests. Which is seemingly to accept being killed by a state murdering them in massacres and mass bombings.

Hilarious how you then claim to be a moral authority and moan about chaos and misery when you are clearly ambivalent to the chaos and misery of Ukrainians and see the person standing up against this as the bad guy.

Yeah once he’s seen off Putin he can get back to abusing the human rights of his citizens again and continue his anti gay agenda.Lets not pretend this guy is a nice person for doing his job as president.I feel for the Ukrainians once they get him in a more powerful role after we propped him up in this proxy war.Theyll be better off than under Putin and what would no doubt be awful reprisals but they are still a country of somewhat outdated ideals and he’s no progressive hero. He’s still a nasty piece of work

[Siderite]

As opposed to yhe saintly Mick Lynch who has apologised for Russia?

I am not interested in such ridiculous statements. Zelensky has stood up bravely for his nation’s sovereignty and democracy. Is he perfect? No, but it deserves recognition for its mean8ng and rightness.

[Siderite]

Only a few months ago he was floating the idea of same sex civil partnerships. He will need to be true to his word for respect, but hardly the actions of some villain as portrayed.

When looking for men of the year we won’t find squeaky clean figures. As alluded to, Lynch accused Ukraine of provoking Russia and making Nazi implications, which is Kremlin drivel. It shouldn’t totally detract from his union work, but if we’re criticising Zelensky’s suggestion for his faults, we should with Lynch.

However, I would say Zelensky wins, because being the figure for democracy and and sovereignty against a fascist and murderous invader is something.

Sorry, are people only acceptable to the hard left and hard right allowed entry?

“ The Ukrainian people will own nothing but they will be happy.”
“ Isn’t that what yourJesus preached?”😂😂😂😂
Jesus Christ taught us to follow the teachings of the “God breathed” Holy Scriptures ,and gave us the “Good News”,repent and put your trust in Jesus Christ – the ONLY mediator between God and Man.
Your idiotic post shows you claim to be wise but you are a fool ( the words in Romans chapter 1.) God is rich in mercy.
Maybe read the Bible and ask yourself the question ,” who was Jesus Christ?”

[Deereyme66]

‘Your idiotic post shows you claim to be wise but you are a fool ( the words in Romans chapter 1.)’

Didn’t realise the Internet was so old.

Dear me bill you post reams and reams of absolute drivel, expect others to read and follow it, then accuse others of idiotic posts. We are all entitled to an opinion, I believe the vast majority of your posts are completely idiotic and is a result of your brain washing from an early age. Please don’t reply with more idiotic scripture, thank you.

“Jesus Christ – the ONLY mediator between God and Man.”

You seem to be giving him a good run for his money!

[64]

I’d say my choice isn’t far anything then ,that link suggests it’s extremists.
The Ukraine President is certainly not a centrist and would be very rigth wing here.
So guess the answer is not, you don’t have to be far anything

[Siderite]

Mick Lynch is hardly a centrist, no matter what you think of him.

[64]

,never said he was Bucks.I’d not insult him in that way. he’s not an extremist which is what that link says to be hard is.

NI- when you posted “ isn’t that what your Jesus preached”? ,my reply was spot on.
It was an idiotic reply-even (as you do)declare the Bible is a “ fairy story” ,even an atheist would laugh .

His views on Ukraine and Putin are typical of that of the hard left, as are his views on socialism. He may not be an extremist in the mould of Lenin, but he’s hardly some milquetoast centre-lefty.

It was obviously a reference to Jesus’s teachings on wealth. Anyway, it’s all superfluous. Your objection to Zelensky on this is nonsense. The Ukrainians will have nothing if they surrender to Russia, as you are so ambivalent about, and your ‘superior’ Christian moral code you tell us atheists is meaningless without God hasn’t exactly led you to what I and many see as a moral position. To be actively ambivalent to mass murder of civilians is ghoulish.

Mick Lynch was able to rise above the hostility of our right wing press and keep the public onboard an almost impossible task,every interview he did on major TV channels was him being attacked by pseudo journalists “holding him to account”yet he got his message out for his union members . That’s why he’s my choice.”

[Siderite]

He’s a good orator and I am not against his union work.
