Ukraine plot twist - it was all a dream


Keir Starmer and President Zelensky have agreed to use the Pam Ewing peace plan. With this plan, Russia withdraws to its borders, the last 50 years never happened, and Bobby Ewing becomes head of NATO.


Continuity-wise, this means erasing the Putin storyline, but Zelenskyy said he has no problem with that. The entire misstep of the provoking the Russians will be put down too much cheese the night before. The fever dream will allow the show to run for another season-at least until winter kicks in.


Critics have said that the Pam Dream Plan is not plausible, but supporters point out that neither was a Ukraine victory. Some say it is not canon, but Zelenskyy is not very keen on any kind of canon. Meanwhile, the Trump Peace Plan will be repurposed for the EastEnders Xmas special, where everyone dies.

Only 98% of Russians will vote for Putin, according to opinion polls


Researchers in Russia have learned that Russians are becoming tired of the Limited Military Operation started over three years ago, are fed up with prices rising exponentially and are quite frankly frightened about the Ukrainian missiles destroying half the petrochemical sites in Russia.  They also are worried about the more than one million Russians who appear to have either died in combat or lost their limbs.


As a result, the polling for the 2026 elections are showing a serious downturn in support for President Putin, with expectations that the 99% support from 100% of the population likely to drop to an unprecedented 98%.  The results of next year's election are expected to be published next week, supporting these polls.

Ukraine doing well is 'bitter sweet' says arms manufacturer


'

Obviously we want them to do well, but not that well, not so well that they might actually win. Nobody is going to hit their sales targets if things spiral out of control and a truce happens.


'Ideally we want a protracted conflict, where Ukraine can be plucky but ultimately thwarted. Peace would be nice, but not as nice as $5bn of arms sold each month.'
