A campaigner in Belarus is seeking to have next year's Eurovision song contest barred from television. Artiom Kirashou, who has gathered some 2,000 signatures for his initiative, says that the appearance in the contest of an Austrian transvestite singer, Conchita Wurst, represents an imposition of Western values -- which he described as "dirty and low."
