New Pussy Riot video lambastes Putin as 'homophobic vermin'

http://tvnz.co.nz/world-news/new-pussy-riot-video-lambastes-putin-homophobic-vermin-5512689

Four members of Pussy Riot can be seen dancing on an oil pipeline in garish masks, tights and short dresses in a new video released today, comparing President Vladimir Putin to an "ayatollah in Iran" and attacking his allies in Russia's rich energy sector.

In their first performance in almost a year, posted on Youtube, the feminist punk protest collective also accused Putin of being homophobic after passage of what is widely seen as anti-gay legislation.
