Boris Johnson had a ticket to ride. Was it the last train to Sharksville? A Russian rocket slams into the train, carrying the former British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, on one of his, well, more or less weekly visits to Kiev. We'll keep you updated on Boris Johnson's condition, because I know a nation awaits the medical report. And Donald Trump tells little Zelensky to knock it off.
Stop hitting Russian diesel, because it's put diesel in America over $10 a gallon. And Boris Johnson joins the IRA. No, that would be Donald Trump. He joined the IRA backing an Irish Republic.
No, he said, it's part of an anti-British turn, that the orange man who's turned green is obviously engaged in. So much more in the course of the next two hours. It is after all, the mother of all talk shows.

It has long been a mystery in Moscow that the train links and indeed the station at which they are honored with a red carpet for foreign visiting dignitaries to little Zelensky, bringing with them suitcases of cash and sometimes pockets full of other things has been left extant by the Russian armed forces who obviously could have taken out the railway, the bridges and the stations long, long ago. Well, it may be that it's the last train to Sharksville because Boris Johnson's train has just been hit by a Russian missile. Now, as much as I despise the oath Boris Johnson, I hope he has survived though there's no word on his condition so far. A nation waits expectantly. And Donald Trump unexpectedly backed an Irish Republic right now. If it's going to happen sooner or later, let it happen now, said Donald Trump. You'd think there were 30 million people voting in November in America who identify as Irish Americans or something like that. But following on as it does with Donald Trump's near endorsement of President Millet of Argentina's renewed demand for sovereignty over the Falklands, as we call them, the Malvinas, as they call them, it represents a further deterioration in British-American relations, which will not have been helped by what happened before dawn this morning. An American diplomat who had been huckled at his flat in Putney for the presence of underage sexual exploitation of children material on his computer was secretly flown out of the United Kingdom without the knowledge of the Metropolitan Police and spirited away to Washington. You'd almost think that the Washington administration had a soft spot for pedophiles. Almost. Now, there are not many successful extraditions of people from the United States to Britain. I've been involved in trying to achieve several, but the American Constitution is robust, and yet the American government is being asked to extradite the Tate brothers from the United States back to the United Kingdom. I would have thought that on current form, they were very unlikely to succeed. And Spain has a big decision to make this week, when the Council of Ministers considers the Kokomene attempt by Donald Trump to extradite my friend Fergie Chambers from Spain to the United States, because he spent 7.5 million US dollars of his own money on humanitarian projects in the Gaza Strip, in Lebanon, and in other Palestinian refugee camps. Oh, and supported, Palestine. Can't say the word, or I might get struck off, or worse. And I might be coming back to Britain because, hey, there's a by-election pending in Holborn and St. Pancras. And unless the Green Party come to the table and make us an offer, we can't refuse. We will be standing. And if we're standing, it will almost certainly be me that is the candidate. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Mr. Zach Polanski. Not that that's your real name. You changed your actual real name to Zach Polanski because, and I quote you, it sounded more Jewish. You're the man that said you could never vote for Jeremy Corbyn because you were a pro-European Jew, giving your backing to the European Union and naming and shaming Jeremy Corbyn as an anti-Semite. You were also flying the flag this very week for the Ukraine, pledging the Green Party's undying loyalty to the cause of Zelensky. That and the fact you think and say regularly that a woman can have a penis are all the reasons why we would find it very, very difficult to endorse you as your party's candidate in the whole-born St. Pancras by-election. So watch this space. Decisions will have to be made in the next 24 hours. And I have a meeting online with my fellow leaders of the Workers' Party in the morning to make those decisions. But back to the Ukraine. The fate of Boris Johnson not withstanding, the war is now going disastrously wrong for little Zelensky. His social base in the country has shrunk so much that they're even revolting in Lvov. Lvov, the place where the Western Ukrainian nationalists regularly and massively massacred hundreds of thousands of Jewish people, of Polish people, of Hungarian people, of Russian people, and of Ukrainian people. Lvov, the epicenter of Ukrainian nationalism, has risen up against the forced mobilization of the press gangs that have been laying waste to the manhood of Ukraine and are about to lay waste to the womanhood of Ukraine. They've just been caught ordering 175,000 winter tunics for women. And so they clearly plan to supplement the massive losses of humans that they have incurred over the last few years with the drafting of women. It's a sad and melancholy truth that no matter how many weapons, no matter how much money you send Zelensky, at least a quarter of it will go walkies, and the weapons that you send have very few people left to fire them, even if the weapons existed, which presently, currently, they do not. And General Winter is about to enter the field. General Winter, Russia's greatest ally in wars gone past, will be with us in that part of the world even quicker than it will be in yours. But when it comes to yours, you're going to have comparatively great difficulty in heating your home. Because the gas reservoirs are at an historic low, the prices at an historic high, and you, you in the countries that have pledged their undying financial and other material support for Zelensky, when your country can't afford it. Britain is borrowing money to lend it, which will never be repaid to Zelensky. A very definition of madness. If Einstein were still with us, I'm sure he'd describe it as such. Mind you, speaking of Einstein, there are still some people who are giving their undying support for Ukraine. The weirdest of Jewish sects are currently celebrating in Ukraine the coming Passover celebrations.
