I clashed on FB with one famous “Orthodox lawyer”, who immediately called Lenya Razvozzhaev a “scumbag” who belongs in Stolypin’s carriage, and a “criminal”. For a long time he convinced me that we live in a wonderful Christian country, where “MAN BREATHS SO FREELY” that PR lawyers are unprofessional. And that in the pre-trial detention center of Irkutsk they do not torture.

I am writing, as they say, from the wheels. My colleagues from Gulagu.net , members of the Public Monitoring Committee and other sources give me information from the scene of events - correctional colony No. 6 in Kopeisk, Chelyabinsk region, where a terrible riot of convicts driven to extremes is now taking place. The text may be somewhat chaotic, as the information is constantly updated. I quote the messages received verbatim.

Proposal by A.A. Piontkovsky, a number of his colleagues and former candidates for the Constitutional Court about: 1) dismantling the political system of the criminal oligarchy and 2) the maximum development of protest in Russia was blocked by the “party of Jean Jacques, John Donne and the Pushkin restaurant.” Then we’ll figure it out, God forbid, we’ll split , not now, we’ll create a working group. Ksenia Anatolyevna happily tweets, saying that Piontkovsky’s “terrible proposals” were repulsed.

A colleague of A.A. Piontkovsky (see Wikipedia) Pavel Shelkov talks about his impressions (http://pshelkov.livejournal.com/8511.html): ...Today I was present as a “bodyguard” and adviser to Andrei Piontkovsky at the next Opposition Constitutional Court, and the impressions were quite sad.

Egyptian police used tear gas to disperse pro-opposition demonstrators near Tahrir Square on Sunday, the local MENA news agency reported. Clashes between police and protesters were recorded on several streets leading to this square, the report said. On Friday, large-scale protests took place in Egypt against the decision of the country's President Mohamed Morsi to expand his own powers. Interfax

Photo: ITAR-TASS On Saturday night, a prisoner riot took place in a colony in Kopeisk (Chelyabinsk region). 250 people demanded the release of their cellmates from the punishment cell and a relaxation of the detention regime. They also went on a hunger strike. The prisoners climbed onto a tower on the territory of the zone and hung a poster there that read “Help, people.” People began to gather near the walls of the colony, after which riot police arrived there. The police detained 30 people.

On December 15th there will be another opposition march, the number of which even the most optimistic members of the Constitutional Court no longer believe in. I am also sure that the majority of members of the opposition Constitutional Court, not believing that anything could radically change in our country in December, are already preoccupied with selecting a venue for the New Year holidays. And the next march will apparently be planned for early February...

After the second meeting of the Constitutional Court, the headline “Yabloko” and “Other Russia” intend to boycott the “Freedom March” appeared in the notorious top Yandex. It’s easy to understand journalists - when there is no event or it’s boring to the point of drowsiness, you have to invent something. So the initial non-participation of “The Other Russia” in the white ribbon movement suddenly (a year later!) turned into a “boycott” of it.

By this they show solidarity with the prisoners from IK-6 in Kopeisk, who have been rioting for the second day. In IK-6, a thousand people are already on hunger strike, demanding the release of all prisoners in the punishment cell and an immediate meeting with the prosecutor. They seized a tower in an industrial zone and refuse to return to the detachments.

The second meeting of the Opposition Coordination Council took place yesterday in the photo gallery named after. Lumiere brothers at the Moscow "Red October". The main topic is the protest action in December. The date for this action was unanimously adopted - December 15. After this, a discussion of slogans began on the main banner, which ended with a vote.
