@mhmck@BritUkrAid What should the peer democracies do? Condemn in the most powerful words we know? Embargo Russia further? It would be equivalent of tactical nuke and we’ve already expressed the serious outcome that would come from that.
@BillKristol The Canadians seemed happy enough and they politely asked to distance themselves a bit from UK a few decades later. Was it primarily the taxes to pay for the debts from French and Indian war and the threats to our special institution that instigated things?
