Still thinks he is prime minister. What a clown.

What's he going to do, donate the proceeds of his book deals and speaking income? Ukraine is probably the only place that has a favorable regard for Bojo. Everyone else has figured out what a sorry excuse for a human he is.

Short on media attention and praise but still sponging off others.

Johnson shares much the responsibility for all this death and destruction. Whenever Zelensky appears to be willing to negotiate with Russia, Johson shows up to change his mind.
With the Ukrainian defenses collapsing, how can they prolong this further.

Um, no. The whole of responsibility falls on Mini-me and his Kremlin-esce enablers both foreign and domestic.
And UA defenses are not collapsing. They are kicking the russian's collective ass up one side and down the other.
There was an analist today who made the following very accurate summary:
Russia used to be thought to have the 2nd most powerful army on the planet. Today it's not the 2nd best army in Ukraine.
Raw Beer
Yes, I'm sure most analists would say that, but analysts say that Russia has crushed the Ukrainian (+ NATO) defenses...

I've got little time for Bojo, he's a clown and a bit of an upper-class twit.
But as PM he did right by Ukraine.
You use the present tense, and if is it an oft-occurring and ongoing phenomenon. Apart from the first month or so of the invasion, I do not recall President Zelensky showing any willingness to negotiate with Putin unless and until all russian troops are removed from Ukrainian territory.

An admitedly funny typo.
It does nothing to undercut the fact that the Russians are getting their collective buttocks (or another term if one wishes - my typos could be a hint) handed to them by the UA and the manufacturing origin of their superiour equipment is irrelevant to that fact.
Raw Beer
That is indeed the narrative being pushed to help legitimize the funds and weapons being given to Ukraine, and to prevent widespread desertion. But it is crystal clear that Ukraine is losing badly, and is on the verge of complete collapse. Pretty soon, Russia will be able to complete their mission, regardless of how many tanks the west gives Ukraine.
