Finnish copyright minister carries fake Prada bag on official business
The Finnish culture minister who enacted a copyright act that bans importing personal knockoff goods into Finland, she's attended an intergovernmental meeting in Slovenia carrying a counterfeit Prada bag. When confronted about this, she complained that the bag had cost too much ("If the bag really is a copy, I paid way too much for it").
This woman is an embarrassment to the nation of Finland and to the Finns. She needs to be removed from office and banished to the scrapheap of history in a hurry. Link (Thanks, Herkko and Matias!)
