"A German politician has been caught short after janitors collared him red-handed pilfering toilet roll from the gents in the town hall during a sting operation, authorities said on Wednesday.

Janitors' suspicions were raised when more than 200 rolls vanished and they laid a trap for Frank-Michael John, 24, a member of the far-left Die Linke party in the regional council of Stralsund, northern Germany.

They discovered him exiting the toilet with one roll in his hand and another in a backpack, according to several media." AFP

A YouTube video showing Czech President Vaclav Klaus stealing a pen during a press conference has inspired a lot of jokes and conversation around the water cooler.

Now all the attention is on a German politician who was caught stealing toilet paper, unfortunately there's no video of the theft.

Politicians are full of crap; it's understandable why John would need a couple of extra rolls of toilet paper. Let's just hope that toilet paper is the only thing he's stealing.
