 As a UK citizen, I want to make it absolutely clear to my fellow Brits and the Prime Minister: I will not die for Ukraine.

Get the fuck away from that country and sort your own shit out. You’re playing with fire Mr. Starmer. 
 Firm Agree! 
 Oops too late we have already LITERALLY opened a war with a nuclear power.

Both sides acknowledge it.  But "they started it"..

 It’s not too late though? It’s a call my bluff moment. 
 Not too late if the west wanted to avoid war, but if that was the case we wouldn't be in this situation.

War is in the clear interests of everyone involved - govt, media, lobbyists.

The West has been driving it since at least 2014 they aren't going to stop now. 
 Brits signed an agreement that Russians broke so I believe Britain has a responsibility to help

 Oh okay, who do they plan on taking?

The notion of all out War in 2024 is absolutely absurd, in the age of thermonuclear weapons warfare in incomprehensible and down right retarded.

 hit back intelligently with "They started it"
