Throwing stuff at politicians or royalty isn't anything new in Britain. What I think is interesting, is that one of the perpertrators was charged with criminal damage for throwing an egg! What? Was it hard-boiled and then laquered? Did it break the bullet-proof glass? It's an egg for ****'s sake!

Read right down to the bottom (pun intended, as you'll see), as it demonstrates British ingenuity in fashion. Just don't anyone tell a certain Yorkshireman friend of mine in Bath, about these multi-functional trousers. You know who you are!

Here's the news.

Update: Those gits at the BBC News website have edited their posted story, removing the referencee to the streaker. here's where you can find that story. My comments to a certain person re: the trousers still stands.
