Spanish politician poses nude for campaign poster

PORTUGALETE, Spain, March 10 (UPI) -- A candidate for local office in Spain's Basque region is campaigning by baring her body on a poster reading, "Politicians have left us stark naked."

Yolanda Couceiro Morin, a town hall candidate in the town of Portugalete, released a campaign poster featuring her nude body covered only by her own hands and the slogan, "Politicians have left us stark naked."

Morin, a member of the right-wing Partido por la Libertad - Manos Limpias, or "Party for Freedom - Clean Hands," told Spanish daily 20 minutos she hopes the "eye catching" ad will convince Portugalete voters to "focus on the problems of their neighbors."

Morin's poster appears to take inspiration from a 2006 poster for centrist party Ciudadanos, which depicted party founder Albert Rivera striking a similar pose in the buff.
