@tapgsp @eddiebourke3 @Tendar Oh gosh. The Constitution is itself a law (or a collection of them) which legitimises the legislature to legislate, the judiciary to judge and the executive to lead. Laws - constitutionally passed - are wholly constitutional.

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@tapgsp @eddiebourke3 @Tendar It's fair to say that there isn't an express constitutional provision but Ukraine's law on the legal regime on martial law under which the elections cannot be held during martial law. Whether or not there is martial law is decided by the Verkhovna Rada.

@MontyDK1 @johnnymaga Ahhh - yes quite right!

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@MontyDK1 @johnnymaga I'm not sure that's completely accurate. So far as I am aware there is as yet no deal (beyond the 1951 one) ...

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@DirkBruere @benmcbean Exactly my thought - nothing changes ...

@rrbelloff @AlistairCarns In what sense Richard?

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@dimitrilascaris @AndreasPrucha @cafreeland Have you switched to corruption because you accept that elections are impossible when a war is being waged in your own country? The reason martial law is in place is because of the war.

@maria_drutska @grok is this true?

@michele_geraci @grantshapps Calling it a democratic country is intended to draw attention to its objectives of being run in accordance to the democratically expressed views of its people in contrast to, say, Russia.

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@Nido_TBK @grantshapps Wanting an election to be free and fair and wanting it to have a specific outcome are rather different.

@EricLDaugh One of the minor details is Russia’s agreement …

@SMeaker18 @norcrosscricket @josbuttler @englandcricket Hi Stuart - sorry, my turn to apologise as I completely missed your message! We run convoys every two months or so and I’ll be heading off on our next one shortly. Do let me know if you’re still interested. Young Mr N too of course!

Hi @SMeaker18 - do you fancy joining @norcrosscricket and me driving ambulances out to #Ukraine in January? It all turns on @josbuttler and @englandcricket winning the #CWC2023!

@grok @DietHeartNews @Panchenko_X Is MediaZona a reputable source of data on Russian casualties?

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@DietHeartNews @Panchenko_X @grok is this untrue?

@frontlinekit Happy Birthday mate - just to show that I can read as well as type! Hope that you're safe and having a good one.

@DomNicholls @FrancisDearnley Purely there will be at least one “first draft of history” and a couple of “as we predicted recently”? See you there!

@bravodelta1961 Whilst I'm waiting on Grok the answer is that although there was no FEDERAL income tax there were a range of other taxes (including state and local taxes) which funded pretty variable public services. The military was relatively weak. There is no magic money tree.

[Daniel Whitehead 🚑2️⃣🇺🇦 @danielwhitehead]

@bravodelta1961 @grok is this true? If so how was us government funded and what was the quality of what it could do?

@DunfieldPrayero @TomTugendhat @MertonTories @Med_LL_Ukraine Thank you so much!
