        @Number10cat Of course if the EU really wanted to take action against Russia re Ukraine, they'd kick 'em out of the Eurovision Song Contest!

        @BBCBreaking "pogroms" in Crimea as we speak. Russian "self-defence" break into Ukrainian activists' homes, attack women and children.

        @BBCBreaking why don't those Russians go back to Russia then! They want to be in Russia they can just go back across Russian boarders.

        @BBCBreaking there were no checks of the electoral register and people with Russian passports were allowed to vote. Russians imported 2 vote

        @BBCBreaking why do they not say how many boycotted it. Crimean Tartars did not vote nor did any Ukrainians, that's at least 25%
