An Australian minister was forced to quit after only three days in the job after he danced in his underwear at an office party and allegedly simulated a sex act with a colleague.

Matt Brown, police minister in the state of New South Wales, was asked to hand in his resignation after reports circulated about the alleged late-night indiscretion.
National newspaper The Australia said Mr Brown stripped off to his "very brief" underwear and danced on a couch to techno music during a boozy office party, according to an unnamed witnesses.
"I'm a human being and I made a mistake and I'm going to cop the consequences of that mistake," an emotional Mr Brown told reporters after he quit.
"I'm talking about an incident in my office some three months ago during the budget sittings. As is the tradition with the parliament, work colleagues get together to celebrate the budget.
"During that celebratory night, I behaved in a manner not befitting a minister."
However, Mr Brown denied an accusation he simulated a sex act with a female colleague.
Again quoting unnamed witnesses, The Australian reported that the then-housing minister "mounted the chest" of fellow MP Noreen Hay at the party.
"There've been some scurrilous accusations about inappropriate behaviour regarding a female work colleague," he said.
"I want to say categorically, they are lies, they are not true, they did not happen."
The NSW state premier Nathan Rees said he asked for Mr Brown's resignation after he failed to reveal to him the whole truth about the incident.

Haha, hilarious

I guess his pride and dignity was damaged.

Something like this would really liven up the US Presidential Elections for me.
