Now here is a post that any pub ought to be proud of discussing. What to make of those gloriously looking females willing to put so much of themselves on the line in protecting their freedom to express whatever crosses their minds without being overtly or covertly abusive.
Could the Pig’s Arms learn something from a humble Russian pussy? Two of them were jailed for ‘rioting’. This was apparently a result of the group performing in a church singing anti -Putin songs. The jailing was seen as an overreaction and Human rights groups became involved. Many were aghast they were jailed for, what many felt and thought, as a rather funny but controversial act.
Anyway, I am pleased two Pussy riot members are now taking their plight up with the Dutch Government. Not long ago Holland got involved with their International Court questioning the treatment of the protestors trying to disrupt oil exploration platform in the Arctic area near Russia.
Nice work!

I didn’t know who they were and suddenly they were there in my knowledge because an online blogger posted some tracks. There is something very attention getting being locked up but. If the Dutch government can reveal what the situation is it will be a great thing.

Yes, ‘before funding is cut’ of SBS or ABC. I wonder how many hundreds of millions could be saved by ditching the obsession with ‘border control’?

First it was Shri Lanka provided with boats. Now Indonesia is getting boats. Did you see the boat being unloaded into the sea. They can carry 60 people. I want a boat too.

Seven hundred thousand people from Syria have fled into Turkey. Did you see Morrison gloating how he stopped the boats on the ABC? He is delirious with happy, so happy 500 people were kept out. The Human Rights commissioner want to investigate the conditions on Nauru and Christmas Islands.
700.000 people in Turkey, a country of 76.000.000. We can’t cope with a few boats of desperate people. Where are our protesting anti Abbott Pussy rioters?

I think you will find that, also, is an operational matter. A pattern seems to be emerging!

And Big M you are not telling us what that pattern is as it is an operational matter, is that right?

There was a wonderful documentary about them at last year’s Sydney Film Festival. Perhaps SBS will screen it before funding is cut.
