An angry crowd has thrown a Ukrainian MP into a skip outside the country's parliament in Kiev.

A group of men were filmed shoving Vitaly Zhuravsky before grabbing him and dumping him head first into the bin filled with festering rubbish.

As he tried to clamber out, the MP - still gripping his briefcase - was held down by his head as members of the screaming and swearing mob tossed a tyre on top of him.

Before Mr Zhuravsky could free himself, liquid from what looked like a drink can was poured over his head and a woman was heard shouting in Russian: "Boys, let me kick him at least one time."

Once a member of ousted President Viktor Yanukovych's Party of the Regions, the MP risked unpopularity in January when he authored a bill severely tightening restrictions on anti-government protesters.

Previously, he was behind a controversial bill criminalising libel, which was withdrawn amid widespread opposition.

The incident came after the Ukrainian parliament voted to ratify a major EU-Ukraine association agreement.


You know when I watched this I thought it would be funny but it wasn't I found it disturbing and violent. I know he has done some unpopular things but he is still a human being, they behaved like animals, should be ashamed of themselves and do no good to any cause they are trying to bring light to. He was obviously terrified and humiliated, it is not funny to belittle people or frighten them, no one has the right to do that, no one, they wouldn't like it if it was them. They made fools of themselves.

Those were terrible acts, yet....how else will they get their point across in a highly-authoritarian government? I mean "Tightening restrictions on anti-government protestors"? This is another way of saying "we want our government party to last as long as possible and not even the people will do anything about it".

I see where you are coming from but you can't take the moral high ground from the bottom road. For me this was just aggression, I'm sure there was another way.

BTW your signature is incredible what is that guy doing?
