"Polite" British people in Riga

Already some month ago, a seriously drunk British male, aged 30, decided to relieve himself. Unfortunately he chose to do it on the National freedom monument of Latvia. Now to say that Latvians hold this statue in high regard, it would be an understatement. However, the really good news were that he was spotted by the local police, and duly banged up. Unfortunately under Latvian law the maximum sentence is likely to be a fine of Ls 250.00, (approximately 5600EEK) To tell the truth, if it was left to majority of latvian people, then he would be locked up in one of Latvia's "finest prisons" for a lengthy period of time. This incident, whilst in the great scheme of things, is no major misdemeanour, and once again indicates the quality of British (in this case English) "polite" people that Ryan Air flies into Riga.
