Aussie arrested for showing the queen his bum

(Metro): Australian Liam Warriner has been charged by police after he 'mooned' the Queen during her royal visit to Brisbane, Queensland. He revealed his backside to the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, giving them quite an eyeful as they made their way from the airport into the city. The royals were visiting Brisbane to see the reconstruction working that has been underway after flooding hit the area earlier this year. Liam Warriner, a local construction worker, is alleged to have bared his bum and wedged an Australian flag between his butt cheeks while running for 50 yards beside the motorcade.

Warriner said that both the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh waved at him during his run. The bottom-revealing incident didn't go down well with officials though.
