An effigy of US President Barack Obama was burned over the weekend by members of the Conservative student association at St Andrews University.

The incident is understood to have taken place on Friday evening on the town's East Sands beach.

"The same society has burned effigies of Gordon Brown and former South African president Nelson Mandela in the past, along with one of Mr Mills (Former president of the St Andrews Labour Society)."


The St Andrews Conservative Party Society sound really keen on burning effigies. St Andrew's students are weird though. 90% of the ones I've met have been odd.

These are St Andrews Students. More likely they will be eating foie gras on rustic bread and smoking the tears of orphans.

She's the worst kind of feminist--thinks she can tell everybody what to think and then is shocked when they react.

I don't get why the Tories would burn an effigy of him anyway. As far as I can tell his politics and political views are more similar to the Conservative Party than any other UK party.

Well that's one way for dealing with the cold up there I suppose. Can think of better ways to pass the time than spreading hate myself though.
