Outrageous! Ex-Prime Minister Hatoyama! #CNN #NYT 鳩山元首相が、官邸を取り巻く反原発のデモに雨ガッパを着て参加

鳩山元首相が、官邸を取り巻く反原発のデモに雨ガッパを着て参加、マイクを握るのは滑稽だ。大飯原発再稼働に反対なら、決定前に党内の会議で声を挙げ、党内世論を形成するとか、今だって野田首相にアポを取って直談判に行くとか、有効な手法はいくらでもある。元首相がパフォーマンスやってどうする。

tweets as follows:

It looks so ridiculous, laughable, capricious, and you name it, for Ex-Prime Minister Hatoyama in waterproof jacket, holding a microphone in his hand to have joined anti-nuke protesters encircling the Prime Minister's Office.

If he really opposes re-start of Ōi Nuclear Power Plant, he still has every effective means possible to stop it by pressurizing Prime Minister Noda through direct talks with him. He should have raised his voice much louder at the party meetings, trying to nurture consensus within his party.

Stop acting silly ! Ex-Prime Minister ! It won't do any help at all !
