It's hard for me to shed any tears when society doesn't care about men. These people are complaining about not being able to leave. What about all the men between 18 and 60? Do they get to leave? No. They have to stay and fight. Where are your tears for men? You only care about women, children, and elderly. I am a man and I want to escape. Does any one care about me? No. Does any one shed a tear for me? No. Does anyone want or care for me to escape? No.

It is very difficult not to be deeply ashamed by the lack of compassion shown by the Home Office (Patel) and Foreign Office (Truss). It is great to send anti-tank weapons (but every other member of Nato has done this as well...it is no big deal) but it is high time for Parliament to launch an Inquiry into the 2 week delays in sanctions (shutting the stable door well after the lawyers have sold the horses), the utter incompetence of the Foreign Office and the deliberate, nasty bureaucracy of the Home Office.
