Thousands arrested in Moscow - protesting about dodgy exclusions of camdidates

"Thousand arrests at Moscow rally"

What's all the fuss about ?

Well, simple , really ... BS reasons given to exclude opposition candidates .. "not enough signatures" ... 

IF free and fair elections were held.. 'United' Russia would likely lose ..

"People were protesting against the exclusion of opposition candidates from local polls. The opposition say they were barred for political reasons.

Some of the candidates banned from standing in the 8 September election had been detained earlier.

Officials disqualified about 30 people, saying they had failed to collect enough valid signatures to stand."
