    Oh dear. It's not too pleasant when your lovechild from a one-off night of passion appears at a social event. I feel for the PM, I truly do.

    At a time when energy is scarce toys like these should be put away. Oh, and those electric toilet seats, totally unnecessary.

    Actually his wife looks quite charming. So Fukuda-san will be happy at home when he retires soon.
