According to Pussy Riot. Even the BBC are reporting on this.

This is such an outrage, jailing Pussy Riot. Maybe because we are lucky enough in this country to be free to say what we think, it really shocks me. Also because they are women and have small children. They are so plucky. Even their lawyers are totally browbeaten by the state but Pussy Riot are making their point. Courageous women.

As the greatest ever rock band once sang "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."

Good luck to the girls.

Who's been stopped from protesting about the Olympics? And I mean actually stopped because of what they're protesting about, not stopped because they were violent, or because they went in places they were told they couldn't, or anything like that.

Try protesting anything in this country.

If I remember rightly, there was a anti-monarchy demo at the Jubilee event by the Thames. Of course peaceful protest is OK in this country, Olympics included. Ex-KGB officer Putin is a different kettle of fish.

130 cyclists arrested during the Opening Ceremony.

IIRC anti-monarchy protesters were arrested in their homes before they could protest. I'll have a look to see if I can back that claim up.

It appears I was wrong. Apologies. It wasn't the Jubilee, it was the wedding. Here's a link
