Yeah I think Ben Wallace means that the British public will have our moral vanity manicured by a performance of gratitude. Well, who should be grateful to whom? If Brits don't understand that #Ukraine is currently shielding Europe from Russian elites' aggression and this won't go away without military response, then that's our government's fault. So back on you, Ben.
This is not a gift, not a game. It is European self-defence.
