You think YOUR politics is a mess...? Weeeellll....
Appaaaaaarently....
UK PM David Cameron stuck a ... COUGH... "part of his anatomy" into the mouth of a dead pig in his dim and distant youth, according to Lord Ashcroft, who has recently done a biography on him.
It's all over the UK press.

Anyway, puns all over the place now from fellow pols and others saying Cameron's "hogging the limelight" and so on. Ah, Blighty, you do me proud.
Daily Mash article is the best...
