Dung Beetle Award goes to...


"Tie this in red tape, heroes"
The Academy of Dung Beetles had no trouble in choosing today's award. It  is being rolled towards  the group of 25 emergency workers in Britain  who refused to enter a 3ft deep pond to save a man who  fell face down in the water during a seizure.
 The reason?  Regulations forbade them to enter water that was more than ankle deep. The man died. More here.
