Porn Brings Down Minister

The Daily Telegraph is reporting that the Ports Minister for New South Wales has resigned from the cabinet after he admitted visiting adult and online gaming sites.

Premier Kristina Keneally confirmed the minister's resignation from his position as a Cabinet Minister. The minister in question advised the Premier that he had used a computer supplied by the Parliament to visit gambling and adult sites.

So what country and political campaign has a pledge- a strip club in every town. Nope, it's not New York and Eliot Spitzer. The campaign pledge is that of Adriely Fatal, a stripper and erotic actress from north-eastern Brazil. Fatal is running for a spot in parliament.

With general elections taking place in October, four adult entertainers are preparing to battle it out for a seat in Ceara state's local assembly.

They are aiming as one paper put it, "... to rock the political establishment by forming a powerful sex lobby within government." The 23-year-old Fatal also promises to focus on hospitals and education and campaigns outside the local football stadium as she dances on an open-backed truck dressed in skin-tight shorts.
