Ban Russia from using SWIFT banking now!
We want the government to ban Russia from using the SWIFT banking system now and not later.
Putin's unprovoked and cold blooded attack of a sovereign, democratic nation warrants this and further sanctions. We cannot believe that Putin will stop at Ukraine unless maximum pressure and pain is brought against his regime, even if it means we must shoulder some of that pain ourselves.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
On the 26 February the Governments of the UK, EU, USA and Canada released a statement setting out far reaching sanctions against Russia, including excluding some Russian banks from using SWIFT.
