Oh just what is the world coming to?
Fighting and crimes done in full view
The Law doesn't care
And we're in despair
The government haven't a clue 😬

Give us a system that's fair for UK
It's what most sensible people say

Thank you Granny.
They are easy to look after too.  Only time its a bit harder is every 2 or 3 years they have to be tipped out the pot and divided, which I find a bit of a chore.

I have to be careful what I plant because Gertie is an avid gardener and meddles with everything! 

Russia has its own oil. China do get oil from Saudi Arabia and the Iranians were letting those through but they also have other sources including Russia although the Ukrainians are slowing applying their own explosive sanctions to that source with their drones and missiles.

The western sanctions on Russian oil were not especially effective with Russia running a huge fleet of "shadow" tanhers. Trump is likely to extend the lifting of American sanctions in the hope that may stop the ever upward world oil pricing that will be costing him dearly in the US mid term elections.

That's not good but by blocking off the movement in the straits of Hormuz surely this will stop the supply of cheap oil to Russia and China ? 
Unless they have a pipeline somewhere .

A whistle was heard and the Cops burst in
They spotted young Al, nicking bottles of Gin
They watched him go
Did they stop him, no
Just shoplifting - no longer a sin

Russia. Putin is an ally and admits he has been helping them. He is known to have been giving them targeting information and is copying their Shaheed drones in Russian factories for use against Ukraine and now sending them to Iran too

They can't continue indefinitely but nor can the Americans. Trump has had to ask for emergency funding for more munitions. Partriot and Tomahawk missiles have been used at an alarming rate

If they were how would they be getting them now ?
