Default British LGBT campaigner Peter Tatchell detained by Russian police
I guess they will put him on a Plane back to the UK.

Holding a Big Sign on his arrest.
He was asking for trouble.

even Russia while first having banned robbie williams from their country, he is now allowed to perform there at the opening ceremony

not the correct platform for protest. He was lucky to escape without a beating.

Events are the best place to protest tbf. Today for example there's a protest going on in Cork to try to stop an Incinerator being built, it's on specifically today because Prince Charles and Camilla are visiting so there will be a lot of media coverage around that area.......... it's the smart way to protest

Yeah let's hope the chemical weapons are locked up for the duration.

Tatchell certainly is fervent about what he believes and like Niamh said, the world's press are in attendance, so probably the best place for a protest. However... while I admire many of the stances he takes, Peter Tatchell and the OutRage! have in the past made it their business to 'out' gay people in the public eye... politicians, clergy... whether they wanted their business broadcast, or not.

He was wrong about that. Doesn't change his otherwise tremendous record.
Who else tried citizen arrest of Mugabe

It was a while ago, too. I wonder whether he would do the same now? Probably not. And yeah, the citizens arrest of Mugabe... legendary. Although he was really badly beaten after that.

Agree. He was impatient and frustrated that some who were secretly gay did not support gay rights in public. He's matured as a campaigner since then.

Russian police would say that wouldn't they.
At least he provides a nice contrast of principles vis a vis Robbie who is happy to open for Putin, anything to help flagging career
