Great to see people out there doing their bit against the war. But whenever I hear about these protests I just think that they are just after an excuse to go get naked. Not against that in anyway. But most serious people generally wear their clothes when they protest. What is the real motivation here?

i'd say the motivation is media coverage, which it got as it was on the 6 o clock news, thats more coverage than your average demo gets. its also humourous which is something politics needs, fair play to them i'd say!!

I Suppose 'Intransigent' means the swp or the sp when he talks about 'most serious protesters' wearing clothes. Trust the Aussies to be a bit more creative
and a lot less inhibited than these 'serious' bores from the swp et al
