The Mayor of London: Badass

Dontrushtoflush We've written before about London Mayor Ken Livingstone's ballsy campaign against SUVs and other gas guzzlers in his city, but I didn't fully appreciate how fearless this guy is until reading of his recent expansion of congestion pricing... and this kicker:

Another of [the mayor's] environmental initiatives is to save water. The "Don't Rush to Flush" campaign, in which Livingstone encourages residents to conform to the "if-it's-yellow-let-it-mellow" school of thought.

Perhaps he could take it to the next level and start charging by the flush.

...on second thought, I couldn't with any conscience support legislation that discriminates against frequent poopers.

yeah Ray, it's definitely a great idea to use up as much of the world's resources as possible, so long as you look good while you're doing it. That's all that counts, hey?
