Queen met by first transsexual MP ... which wouldn't be Ms Bayer's first encounter with an old queen, I'll bet.

*groan*

Seriously though, the British media must rub their hands with glee when something a teeny bit avant-garde appears on the radar screen of an otherwise lacklustre looking tour. Best quote from that article:

"Ms Beyer's operation was confirmed by a New Zealand government official, who announced: 'Yeah, she's had the full chop'."
We call a spade a fucking spade 'round our way and don't you forget it.

Georgina Bayer is a fascinating lady who rose to the top in local politics (becoming mayor of a redneck, white bread, podunk little farming town) before becoming an MP at the last election. Her maiden speech to the house included the following choice lines:

"I was quoted once as saying this is a stallion that became a gelding and now she's a mayor. I do have to say that I've now come full circle and become a member."
Qualidee. More like her in the House please!
