British politicians are a different breed of crazy than those in the United States. Whereas Democrats and Republicans are often deluded drama elementals hungry for a spotlight, Brit politicians are generally freaky weirdos with a closet so full of skeletons they have to prop a chair against the doorknob to keep it closed.
How weird are they? Well, up in Scotland, female parliamentarians and staff are currently reeling from the news that one of their colleagues placed a secret camera inside a staff bathroom. The pervert in question is MSP Colin Smyth of the Labour Party, who first made the news earlier this month when he was arrested and charged with possession of indecent images of children.
