Are Brit politicians just more boring about sex scandals or do they not know how to Tweet?
I wonder if there are yfront pix of Cameron or Clegg out in cyberspace (for example - it's NOT that I'd want to see them).
Just wondering....

Ah yes. The honourable member for Eastleigh and the auto-erotic asphyxiation that went wrong. South Today's reporting of that one was amazing!
