This is all starting to look rather complex, and definitely not helped by Trump's first "missiles are coming" tweet (which must have had the US miltary top brass doing somersaults!).

Although the Maybot is an inadequate fool, I do feel for her right now as she's kind of damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. If I was in her position I'd pluck for the parliamentary vote and keep fingers crossed it gets voted down - then at least she can say she tried. And, in the meanwhile hopefully things will de-escalate.

I'm not exactly one for appeasement, but as somebody pointed out above, with two lunatics in charge of things (Putin and Trump) the last thing we want to do is provoke even further, surely?
