I'm sorry but this has really messed up my plans for tomorrow.

Very thoughtless indeed.

Is it possible for the UK's government to lay on a last minute aircraft to collect President Putin and his dignitaries?

Putin really should be our guest tomorrow. It's no more than he deserves.

Is there a great one then, other than the one with whom we are all familiar?

I believe the have called him Vladimir Putin the Great in Ukraine as he has single handedly destroyed the Russian armed forces in a seriously short period of time. They can't speak highly enough of him in Ukraine.

Hi Paul,

I hope you're well.

I'm really sorry to say this but I am deadly serious. Putin has every right to be at a funeral tomorrow. No one deserves it more.

Should we have supplied the plane?

Would the crew have been issued with parachutes?

Edit: I have just re-read your comment about the UK government laying on the aircraft.

Yes, as long as they promise to bale out over the channel :)

Should we have let him attend the Queen's funeral before the accident, or would the accident have happened on the way here?

I presume Zelensky was invited, and I thought that I briefly saw him in the congregation at Westminster but I could be wrong.

V8

His wife Olena Zelenska was there.

It seems a bit mean not to invite him just because a couple of months ago he was threatening to reduce the UK into a nuclear wasteland in 30 seconds.
