Naked truth


Plenty of politicians promise to tell the naked truth, but Albert Rivera - a 26-year old law school graduate and Spanish politician - is taking the cliché literally, appearing nude on a campaign poster as he runs for president of Catalonia. On thousands of posters adorning the streets of Barcelona and other Catalan cities, Albert Rivera is shown naked as the day he was born, covering himself, fig-leaf style to keep the poster family-friendly. Beside the photo, a caption reads: "We don't care where you were born. We don't care which language you speak. We don't care what kind of clothes you wear. We care about you".
