Nude Swimmers Protests As Public Beach Closed For Saudi Royal Family

July 29, 2015 Peter Allen, www.mirror.co.uk , ,
By Peter Allen in The Mirror - Nude swimmers joined demonstrators protesting at the Saudi royal family getting exclusive use of a beach. More than 100,000 people have signed a petition furious that King Salman and his party of 1,000 relatives and staff have taken over public sands on the French Riviera. One resident who lives next to Mirandole Beach in Vallauris said: “The fact they are allowed to pay to shut it off is an outrage. “This is public property, a place everybody should be allowed to enjoy, not just very rich Saudis.” King Salman, 79, arrived on Saturday in a motorcade of armoured limousines. Protesters who tried to get near his £5million holiday villa were warned they would be arrested. An official said closing the beach was consistent with a visit by a head of state.
