  1. >”My fear is that Putin is gauging options to attack the West, should he wish to escalate, without triggering a NATO military response”

    Am I the only one who can’t wrap their head around the idea that Russia could attack the west without triggering a NATO military response?

  2. Im pretty suprised they dont already know where all these underwater cables are

    As for the onshore infrastructure i wonder if he’s heard of google maps

    On a serious note, surely the boats can be forced to dock in the UK and the crew detained if they fishing in the wrong waters so cant we do something about this?

  3. The mapping will probably get leaked do more for our infrastructure than the last 15 years of Tory government

  4. The government certainly seems to ramping up the rhetoric over Russia.

    Does anyone else get the feeling that we’re being prepared for something?

  5. Russia has to use Rail to move its millions of troops around. It is not attacking the UK because we would have used missiles to take out all the infrastructure to take out their transportation. We are not in the days of WW11 any longer.

    Missile technology is too good these days for anything like that to happen. The Russians are having to use 1000s of missiles daily to slowly encroach forward whilst on their borders.

    Just another article enforcing public opinion but has not reality on fact.

  6. Anyone who believes that Russia are going to attack the UK are insane. Even if you ignore the fact that it doesn’t benefit Russia in any way and it would draw them into a war with the West, there’s nothing that Russia could do to us that we’re not doing to ourselves. This is just bullshit empty rhetoric being used as a blatant attempt to distract from the failures of the Conservative government.

  7. I await the headline:

    “Putin put off attacks gambit after hearing descriptions of Skegness.

    ‘We think someone has already beaten us to it’ said the Kremlin.”

  8. The increasingly thickening layer of shit around the U.K. coast will block up their engines. HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!

  9. Yeah. Russia doesn’t have the capability to attack the UK. And if they did they wouldn’t be mapping infrastructure from spy ships. This isn’t WW1.

  10. Don’t they own the half of West London that doesn’t belong to the Saudis and Qataris? If they wanted to set up camp they can just come in via Heathrow and use all those new build flats in Lambeth that Boris Johnson approved planning permission for.

    But no, they’re looking to mount an offensive on Jaywick Sands.

  11. There’s about as much chance of Russia starting a war on the Uk as there is the tories going a week without a scandal. They can’t even wage war effectively on their own boarder.

  12. Every time I see one of these headlines I start to get nervous, but all I have to do is read the comments and I’m laughing again. Thanks pals

  13. If Putin is interested in a non nuclear fight with the British military in our waters and in our airspace I hope he’s got some spare boats to bring the wreckage back to Russia.

  14. Who are they kidding lmao?? The moment they touch UK their fucked, couldn’t bring down Ukraine For fuck sake lmfao
