Two lesbian activists found themselves sitting in the row in front of Vitaly Milonov, the architect of Russian’s anti-gay laws, on a flight from Moscow to St Petersburg.
So the women took a selfie of themselves kissing to protest against his anti-gay policies, featuring the sleeping politician in the background. The image went viral after they posted it on Instagram.
One of the women, identified on social media as Kseniya Infinity, wrote: “Who’s that in the background??? MILONOV! And we don’t give a f***! We’re flying to our favourite club, Infinity.”
The selfie-kiss protest comes as Milonov is drafting a bill in the Kremlin to close a loophole that has allowed same-sex couples to marry in Russia.
