Protesting With Footwear Edit
Tibet Activists Throws Shoe At China Premier In The UK


Digg this TrendStumble this TrendShare this TrendEmailthis TrendEmbed This TrendShare This Trend





A shoe was thrown by a protester at China’s premier Wen Jiabao Monday during a speech at Cambridge University. The shoe missed Jiabao, and the protester was escorted out of the auditorium.

Unlike when a shoe was thrown at George Bush last year, the Chinese Premier didn’t even have to duck. Jiabao has been followed by protesters during his entire 3 day visit to the U.K., demonstrating over Chinese policy in Tibet.

The protester leapt up from his seat near the back of a crowded auditorium, blew a whistle and yelled that Premier Wen Jiabao was a "dictator" before throwing the shoe toward the stage. "How can this university prostitute itself with this dictator here, how can you listen...to him unchallenged," the man shouted. (google)
