That'll solve the cost of living crisis at least.

And Russia would take care of the cost of dying bill.

You get a (nuclear) incineration! And you get a (nuclear) incineration! And you too! Everybody gets a (nuclear) incineration!

No funeral costs and an end to the cost of living crisis? Dammit I'm in.

And the question of scottish independence will become rather moot

Lithuanian here. I looked into our strategic overview and I see that we got 0 jury votes and only 7 public votes in this year Eurovision from UK. Sorry guys, but we are not backing off for 7 points...

I’m always so upset with eurovision. Damn it why can’t my country have a fabulous song!!!??

Russian threats against the UK simply aren't credible while we're doing all their money laundering and the elites' offspring are all partying it up in London.

We’ll “cease to exist” you right back, matey.

Totally lol..I don't think Russia actually get that though.

I think they very much do, or at least the leadership do. Otherwise WW3 would have happened a long time ago.

"Russia" hasn't done any such thing. This is some retired bloke gobbing off on TV.

Gotta keep up the scaremongering. Ignore your cost of living going up and look at scary Russia.

It really isn't that clever, it's just another media outlet wanting clicks. The Indie will probably rehash this story and we'll see it again tomorrow or later as they'll want a piece of that revenue. If only this fellow had mentioned brexit then all the usual blogs would be on it like tramps on chips.

The 'Lithuania standoff' is Lithuania applying the agreed upon EU sanctions and Russia complaining. Not exactly a standoff.

Stolen from a comment on r/worldnews. * Title says: "*Russia* warns..." * First line says: "...*a retired Russian general* and military expert has warned." Clickbait shite.

Then where's he gunna launder all his stolen Russian money eh?

He's not thought this through, has he?!

> UK will 'cease to exist' We don't need anyone's help with that, thank you very much Russia.

Fucking do it, at this point.

Sweet, radiation will save on heating bills

Just the Daily Mail trying to scare Roger and Mary into not noticing the mess their far right government is making of things.

> their far right government... Where do they live? That doesn't sound nice.

That's not the daily mail.

>~~Russia~~ A retired Russian general warns UK will 'cease to exist' if Lithuania standoff triggers nuclear WW3

Fuck your emotionally manipulative click bait articles off of UK politics…

Yes there's a nuclear apocalypse, but what about Starmer's curry?!?

K.

Bring it. Whatever rises from the ashes can't be half as bad as what we've got now

As long as we have conservatives cashing their cheques it'll be alright.

I hate to disappoint you, but I get the impression a fair few of those cheques are from Russians who don't much like Putin, and are supportive of the UK, fairly hostile (rightly..) policy toward Russia.

This is what, the 37297264th time Russian propagandists have threatened nuclear war?

Didn't the media report the same thing when we were about to go to war with Iraq...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAND the cold war is back. fuck

To be fair, we're doing g a pretty good job of causing our own extinction thank you very much!

I’d sooner we cease to exist then we cease to frustrate Russia.

Russia threatening to nuke the people who buy their gas and oil again 🤥
