Goth becomes Prime Minister of Ukraine.

I thought this deserved wider propogation. You are no doubt all aware of the recent electoral shenanigans in the Ukraine, in which the former ruling party tried to rig the elections in their favour, but following a large (and apparently well-funded) protest, a new election was held appointing Viktor Yushchenko as President.

What you may not know, but what has recently been brought to my attention by spyinthehaus, is that his political partner and now the new Prime Minister, Yulia Timoshenko, is a BLOODY GOTH!

I present ABSOLUTE PROOF!

she is rapidly becoming my ideal woman.

I expect there's a queue. Probably quite a long one. A lot of them probably very scary.

Do you have any idea *which* fifth?

Apparently her company has a monopoly, more or less, on natural gas, which is one of the few things in the area that have any value.

Ah, neither so pure as the waving fields of Ukrainian grain nor so oddly arousing as the neat peaks of decomposing former Soviet nuclear ordnance, but there's a lot of it and it's inflammable, so what the Hell? We can stretch a point this once.

At least one strong entrant is wanted by Interpol. Her husband, Oleksander Tymoshenko.

Oh, I think anyone wanted by Interpol gets to queue-jump. Isn't that traditional?
