The Antwerp Municipal Executive for Tourism Ludo Van Campenhout has become the talk of the town in Antwerp (Flanders), but even abroad. Invited to debate in the sunday morning live political show on VRT (the Flemish television) he completely lost is head and started an aggressive discours, accusing his opponent Filip Dewinter (Vlaams Belang) of being a 'fascistoid communist', even requiring that Dewinter leave the studio.
He was obviously drunk, local newspapers report, and even the moderator couldn't stop hem from shouting. 24 hours later Van Campenhout apologized halfhearted for his 'accent', period.


Highlights of this legendary monologue can be seen at: http://www.defrut.be (the local Antwerp online newspaper)


Update: two days after his desastrous debate, mister Van Campenhout decided to take some hollidays.
