        @BBCBreaking @katekelton Glad she's finally free. Not a coincidence the winter olympics are in a few weeks. Russia needed some good PR.

        @BBCBreaking why is a feminist bigot who desecrated an Orthodox Cathedral in front of elderly women & kids being treated like a new Mandela?

        @Projectionist76 @BBCBreaking If it took place outside the Kremlin it would be different. In a church its an act of psychological terrorism.

        @Projectionist76 @BBCBreaking I wouldn't know. But do it by free and vigorous debate in the public square not terrorising believers at Mass

        The right decision made for a sadly cynical reason. Pre-Olympic sucking up. @BBCBreaking @strombo
