'Let's get N I moving again.' Back to the Dark Ages, presumably...

And why do I write that, I hear you cry..?

Meet Edwin Poots, the newly-elected leader of Northern Ireland's

Democratic Unionist Party (DUP).

Mr Poots is what they call a 'Young Earth Creationist', which means he's one of those people who believes the earth is only 6000 years old. Yeah, I know. That's what I thought.

More worrying is that people over there actually voted for him.

And we thought the USA had the monopoly on dingbat politicians...

Can't wait for someone to ask him why there's no mention of dinosaurs in the bible. I mean, they were big enough. Someone must have seen one...
