What have the 'disgusting' older generation in the UK done exactly and how have they 'fked everyting'?
Brexit for one, 14 years of Tory cuts for 2.

With reference to the article posted.

Well Putin would be in that older generation :D.

He definitely fucked everything!

Her remarks follow a series of sabotage incidents in the UK and across Europe that have been attributed to Russia or Russia-linked actors, including a fire at a London warehouse last year and a railway line explosion last month in Poland. Airports have also been disrupted by drones.

Last week, the UK's foreign secretary Yvette Cooper warned that Russia was running "vast malign online networks" as part of a strategy of "information warfare".

Look-Up!

Forget Bitcoin. Invest any spare money you have in Thales and Dassault shares. That's the way it's heading.

A new radar, maybe the French can sell a few Rafales to datalink with as well

https://www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2025/12/16/ireland-to-buy-500m-military-radar-system-from-france/The military radar programme comprises three parts. There will be a long range, land-based radar, a ship-borne maritime radar and ground-based air defence systems, which will include counter-drone technology.

These systems will combine to provide a "recognised air picture", enabling the military to see all aircraft over the State, including those with their transponders switched off.

The Government said the project will be completed by the end of 2028, with some counter-drone capabilities being acquired before Ireland takes up the EU presidency in July 2026.

Funding for the project will come from the €1.7 billion National Development Plan for the Defence Forces which was published last week.
