Belgium Protesters Stripped Down



This is an interesting news guys ... people in Belgium stripped down to their underwear to conduct a mockery protest at Ghent because their country has been without a government for a record breaking 249 days now. 

Prime Minister Yves Leterme resigned 249 days ago and even in the last eight months, the very divided political parties of Belgium have failed to form a coalition government. Thus, mockery celebrations were carried out in which exactly 249 people decided to strip down in Ghent and stood up without their pants making fun of their political parties. In other Belgium cities, people celebrated by having free chips (which is Belgium's national dish) and free Belgium beer. The mocking celebrations were organized through text messages, facebook and twitter updates.

The way things are going, it is believed that Belgium will take away the record of taking the longest time to form a government, which is currently held by Iraq.

The situation is so bad that a female politician - Marleen Temmerman suggested that wives of all the MP's should ban sex till their men are able to form a government. She mocked and passed this statement "Spouses should keep their legs crossed to bring an end to the deadlock."
