Fail Britannia: The Decline of Western Civilization's scandals
They say you get the scandals you deserve. So it's kinda interesting that while we mop up the sordid Spitzer affair, the Brits have their knickers in a bunch over a conservative MP who -- gasp!-- runs red lights and one-ways on his bike.
I should think it's rather a bigger scandal that a man who's smart enough to be a member of parliament rides around with his helmet strapped to his handlebars.
Then again, that's one of the defining elements of the world's second best bike video.

He's a conservative MP, so perhaps different intellectual standards apply.
