Good graphic on top of a good idea. Big driver to send those golf balls into the North Sea?
Drone targetting I am told but mostly about the encirclement of Russia, constantly demonised by Hammond et al. Remind the warmongers – perpetual war, that 26 million Russians out of the 50 million total sacrificed their lives. You know Russia was crucial in defeating the Nazis.
With you in spirit.
