NZ politician keeps election promise, streaks ahead. : "A New Zealand politician who promised to run naked through the streets if he lost an election bet attempted to honour his pledge on Sunday, but in the nature of politicians he was not prepared fully to expose himself to the naked truth."

Oh, to have such 'honest' politicians in the rest of the world ... though you have to admit, this version of the "Emporor's new clothes" is somewhat more entertaining than what else is currently on offer! At least he didn't frighten the horses!
