I'll call it now... 09:47 - Jul 7 with 687 views | ArnoldMoorhen | If Johnson is able to stay on as PM until the Autumn, then I expect an announcement within the next couple of weeks that the Royal Navy will be sent to the Black Sea to accompany Grain from Ukraine to Africa. One last grand gesture on the world stage. (Of course, if one hits a mine then we might find ourselves at war with Russia, and "It would be irresponsible for me to step down at such a time.") |  | | |  |

It is absolutely necessary to avoid (or at least minimise) a humanitarian crisis that will cause misery for millions, and substantial migration. Germany doesn't have a Navy with the capability to carry out the operation, the USA won't, because that would be a huge symbolic step into the Russian sphere of influence. It's down to us and France. |  | |  |
