Tatchell And Right Said Fred Star Battered By Anti-gay Thugs In Moscow

[drummer]

Police stood and watched as two British gay rights campaigners were kicked and punched by neo-Nazis at a demonstration in Moscow.

Former politician Peter Tatchell and pop singer Richard Fairbrass had travelled to the city to join a protest demanding the right to hold a Gay Pride parade there.

Mr Fairbrass, 53, the Right Said Fred singer, was being interviewed on TV when an anti-gay activist, dressed all in black, surged forward and began raining blows on his head and punched him full in the face.

The attack left him with blood dripping from cuts around his eyes and nose.

Mr Tatchell, 55, was repeatedly beaten and kicked before being taken away by two riot policemen. As many as 30 other gay rights protesters were also detained.

Being verbally or physically attacked for ones way of life or beliefs is disgusting.

However, I did smirk when I saw the photos of the Right Said Fred prick with a nosebleed, as I think simply for unleashing "I'm Too Sexy" and other songs on the world it is the least he deserved :biggrin:
