AFTER the shooting down of MH-17 by Putin-backed mercenaries, the world needs to wake up.

If Putin is allowed to continue with his terrorism in Eastern Ukraine, no-one knows where he will end, the English Channel?

I urge everyone to boycott Russian goods: vodka, etc. If you purchase such products you are sponsoring the terrorists who murdered 298 innocent victims.

The large supermarkets need to be mindful of their social responsibilities and not be seen to be funding murderers.
