Relocation to a country with human rights would solve the boycott issue.

Yes, I must say, it does strike me as quite weird how Stephen Fry and other protesters have been asking for a relocation, while the politicians have responded to that by saying that a boycott is a bad idea.

Deliberately avoiding the actual demands of the protesters. Sigh.

Certainly, let it be relocated to Egypt, or Saudi Arabia, or Lybia, there are many countries with no gay propaganda ban (just death penalty). There are even more excellent countries which are not ordered to be offended by free international mass media. What about Georgia? China... where was Mr.Fry during Beijing'2008?

Thank you for sharing your great words of wisdom with us. Hopefully your are not a waiter or you likely respond to "there's a fly in my soup" by pouring in mercury in saying it was better as it was.
