    But if yesterday’s attacks are part of a new pattern, it is not impossible that that could change. “We could get closer to the point where the elite population have to actually pay attention to what’s going on and accept they have a stake in it,” Andrew said.

    He could even be saying something true. But some advice is needed, what about the British "elite" in their comfortable abodes and wealthy enclaves? A few Russian drones landing in Mayfair and Westminster, which hopefully don't actually kill anyone, might be useful in causing elite population of this country to have to pay attention to what's going one, and to have a stake in it, as Andrew so eloquently states. If that is what it's going to take to get some sanity in the UK and its leadership then I'd actually welcome that because better to have a stake, than in becoming a steak (well done).

    Perhaps a drone could start by knocking Nelson off his column. Some unknown Russian might wish to lay a pre-emptive wreath on the Cenotaph, in memory of all the soldiers that are going to be killed in the coming WW3, as the Cenotaph probably won't be standing when that war gets going.
