A nuclear Halloween: Japanese anti-government urban art

Japan’s ongoing spat with China is undoubtedly a rallying call for the nation’s rightists, but for the vast majority of people, the country’s nuclear issues are a more pressing concern than some far flung rocks.

      Thanks, Don. I had to wait a little while, but thankfully she gave me the look I was after.

    There is still hope left for Japan now that finally some people are standing up for themselves and reject the LDP and other politicians

      Hopefully. The only problem is the huge number of votes the older generation hold. Until they come round and stop voting the way they always have, any changes may be a long time coming…
