Stained y-fronts....yelch

Pensioners in Melbourne Australia, stripped  in public yesterday in protest at the low level of the base pension.
 
The antic caused traffic mayhem as drivers craned their necks to see the older Aussies prancing about in their undergarments.
 
Organiser of the protest, Mrs Mavis Simms, said this was the only way she knew to attract the government’s attention.

Thanks beaulieu - yes every TV news had images of the oldies, but only we uncovered the secret relationship between Mrs Simms and Mr Barlett - the mainstream news just focussed on the bigger picture
