These modern times

From the Evening Standard:

"A senior BNP [British National Party, racists basically] leader with a strong chance of winning a seat in the London Assembly [something to do with the mayor, not sure what] next month has written that rape is a "myth" and that "some women are like gongs - they need to be struck regularly."

I know TECHNICALLY this isn't funny and I should be horrified as this man will be serving in a body in which I am in some way represented, but I still giggled like crazy when I read it. Its 2008 for crying out loud! [Just like to point out that I orginally posted this with 'Its 2007 for crying out loud' hmmm]

UPDATE: He got fired today!
