UK Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson is really settling into his job, and started the weekend early by scaring the hell out of the British public by claiming Russia could cause \u201cthousands and thousands and thousands\u201d of deaths.<\/p>\n

\n

Why stop there? Why not millions of deaths? Or trillions? Gazillions?<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat they [Russia] are looking at doing is they are going to be thinking \u2018How can we just cause so much pain to Britain?\u2019<\/em>\u201d Williamson said. \u201cDamage its economy, rip its infrastructure apart, actually cause thousands and thousands and thousands of deaths, but actually have an element of creating total chaos within the country.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

Firstly, congratulations on your ongoing efforts to speak English, Mr Williamson \u2013 you\u2019re getting very close to fluency, keep it up.<\/p>\n

Secondly, if Russia really wanted to cause chaos in Britain, it wouldn\u2019t worry about damaging some power lines, it would simply donate to the Tory party\u2019s reelection fund.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t even the first time this week Williamson has been behind scaremongering using Russia. He deployed the nation\u2019s top general on Monday to use Moscow as a reason to push for more funding from the government. Will someone please give the man some money?!<\/p>\n

If we\u2019re all honest, there is a good chance that Russia is making contingency plans in the event of conflict, because, y\u2019know, that is what militaries tend to do, especially when the defence secretary of another nation spends his time talking up war against you.<\/p>\n

For example, those weapons that Williamson wants to buy for Britain\u2019s military aren\u2019t for international tickling contests. They\u2019re part of contingency plans to cause thousands and thousands and thousands of deaths, should they have to.<\/p>\n

The huge aircraft carriers Britain is aiming to put to sea tend to cause a certain amount of chaos and death when they park up next to a sandy country somewhere.<\/p>\n

Those trident missiles? Guess what they could do, Gavin.<\/p>\n

The talk of war is coming from the West, not the east. Even on BBC Radio 4\u2019s Today program this morning, a reporter suggested that some people may describe Williamson\u2019s words as \u201calarmist<\/em>.\u201d Yeah, a f***ing great klaxon alarm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The threat basically suggests Russia wants to unplug Britain.\u00a0\u201cThey are looking at these things because they are saying these are the ways that we can hurt Britain<\/em>,\u201d Williamson said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we lost our interconnectors, which would be something that we know that they are looking at, there would be 3 million homes without electricity. In a few years\u2019 time there will be 8 million homes that would be dependent.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIf you could imagine the domestic and industrial chaos that this would actually cause. What they would do is cause the chaos and then step back.\u00a0This is the real threat that I believe the country is facing at the moment.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a real mystery what Williamson thinks would happen then. After the globe\u2019s biggest financial center has been unplugged, the chaos wouldn\u2019t stop at the English Channel \u2013 it would go global, and Russia\u2019s on the globe too.<\/p>\n

It cannot be underlined enough that this rhetoric is aimed solely at seeding fear in the government and population. These latest comments are so severe, it suggests that it\u2019s now\u00a0fair game to say anything about Russia, because no one seems to care whether it\u2019s either true, or acceptable.<\/p>\n
