Radio talkback all seems to be about Senator Brown's 'bad behavior' in parliment. (Sen Brown is in his 50s & is no spring chicken, his green companion in the outburst is a woman in her mid 40s).

Community mostly against him & his companion's outbursts but about (from my listening) 25 % seem to think what he did was acceptable. The radio talkback hosts seem to be unanimously against Brown (as I am).

A good percentage of people have commented how they may not have agreed with issues related to pre-post Iraq, these people feel that Brown & sidekick had no right to behave as badly as they did.

Also today Sen Brown was stopped from entering parliment to hear Hu Jintao's address. He went quietly.

He also commeneted 'how disgraceful' it was that two Tibetans he had invited to sit in the members galley, had been redirected to the Children's gallery (where there is a glass wall between seating & the chamber). Coming from him after his grandstanding yesterday, it seems 'rich'.
