Bitter party rivals in the world’s political arenas are continuously looking for dirt to sling on their opponents, but this is a pretty novel one. Austria’s BZÖ is calling for an investigation into chancellor Alfred Gusenbauer’s use of an iPhone captured on camera at an EU summit a full frickin’ day ahead of its official Austrian release. it seems like the questions center around whether the phone was unlocked; if it was unlocked then whether it was legal or moral to do so; if it wasn’t unlocked whether Gusenbauer was getting special treatment; and above all, whether the government footed the bill (he says it was a birthday gift, but yeah, we’ve heard that line before). Must be nice to live somewhere where this is one of the bigger political rows continue, eh?
