Yah Lah But #575 - Spanish Couple Detained for Protesting Singaporean Ownership of Valencia FC & PM Wong Flies Scoot
This episode we ask: when is a protest, a protest? A Spanish couple on their honeymoon here are providing a fascinating test case. They held up signs denouncing Singaporean Peter Lim’s ownership of football club Valencia, and were shocked when they were not allowed to leave the country. Even with our stringent rules, this feels like a stretch. Join us as we speculate on where the tipping point is, and why! Separately, Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has been hailed for his humility after he was seen taking a budget airline after a work trip in Laos. But what exactly are the rules surrounding politicians and air travel?
