I AGREE with the Ukrainians regarding boycotting goods but not whose goods they want to boycott.
Let’s start with the countries whose actions caused the trouble in the Ukraine, who funded the rabble who overthrew the democratically elected president, namely the EU and the US.
The EU, led by the Germans, drive to ever expand the EU and the US for what they can get out of the trouble. Perhaps it is the £1.5 billion that the Ukrainian billionaire wants to spend on arms, who knows. This is after asking for financial aid from the west.
Next we see the picture of a burned-out shop but whose shell caused the damage?
Facts are that the Ukrainian army is shelling its own people —ask yourself why are there no reports on the BBC or ITV censorship?
The French report the plight of the civilians in East Ukraine and the government’s bombardments, plus so-called Kiev volunteers with swastika tattoos, how come there are no reports from the BBC?
NATO bombed the living daylights out of Libya for less, what a bunch of hypocrites they are, but every one knows the US control NATO.
I do not drink vodka, but I think I shall buy a bottle anyway.
