It takes courage —or desperation— to vote for something revolutionary, or even anything really radical. Germany is, even now, not ready for national revolution; neither is Britain.
Germany and Britain are both nearly ready to support something fairly radical— AfD in Germany, Reform UK in Britain (leaving aside the fact that Reform, at least, is basically “controlled opposition”), and we shall see what happens in the next 4 years. After that, social nationalism will be the only way to go. Either that, or complete collapse of the societies, followed by some form of authoritarian multikulti near-Communism.
We have not only to “drain the swamp” but clear the swamp…

“Wow, Putin was right. Macron, Starmer, Zelensky, the President of Poland, Duda even waited 1,5hr outside the oval office for a 10min talk with Trump.”]
[“I’m not going to make security guarantees beyond very much. We’re going to have Europe do that,” President Trump says regarding the potential Ukraine deal.“]
I think that we can now take it as read that, barring accidents, Russia and the USA will not be getting into a nuclear war. Whatever one may think of Trump, in that respect God must be with him, to put it in conventional terms.
That leaves the European powers. The only ones of significance are the UK and France (mainly because of their nuclear weapons), Poland, and Germany (Poland because of the size of its army and its probable morale, Germany because of its large amount of up-to-date transport, armament etc).
The UK and France would be mad to try to threaten the use of or, a fortiori, deploy in combat nuclear weapons. Any nuclear response by Russia would destroy Britain utterly. As for France, the same applies, except that France is nearly 2.5x the size of the UK.
I think that what we are looking at (unless there is a real armistice Russia-Ukraine, which is unlikely) is a continuation of the war, with the UK, France, Germany supplying even more arms, armament, and money to the Kiev regime, but probably failing to plug the gap left by withdrawal of most American assistance.
If the Americans also withdraw their intelligence aid to the Kiev regime, Russian forces will find their progress in the war easier.
The Kiev-regime side is now very short of actual “boots on the ground”. It is even thinking of extending the draft to those aged 18-24, so far immune from conscription.
I cannot see the Kiev regime lasting much beyond 2026.
[“British MPs have taken down another picture of Nelson, the greatest naval commander in history, a man who died for his country, and put up a picture of Yvette Cooper who cannot even control our borders. It is a powerful symbol of all that is wrong with Britain.”]
If I were an MP, I should put my boot through Cooper’s portrait.
