In 2013, Tatchell carried out a similar disruption at a concert given by the London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican Hall in London, conducted by the distinguished Russian musician Valery Gergiev. Tatchell and some henchmen strode onto the platform, unfurled a banner and delivered a vociferous denunciation of the Russian government's prohibition of obscene homosexual parades or LGBT propaganda to schoolchildren. He had to be removed by the police.

In 2001 Tatchell went to Brussels to try to perform a "citizen's arrest" on Robert Mugabe, the communist President of Zimbabwe, whose policies on homosexual rights did not meet Mr Tatchell's approval. He walked up to Mugabe outside a hotel, tried to physically detain him, and was surprised to find himself repulsed somewhat vigorously by the President's trained bodyguards. He later complained that he had been beaten up, possibly reminding some of the old adage that "fools rush in where angels fear to tread".
