Mistaking your constituency for Alabama, USA

There has been much guffawing at the three West Midlands Tory MEPs, Philip Bradbourn, Philip Bushill-Matthews and Malcolm Harbour, after a blogger spotted that the picture on the front of their website, purporting to be of the largest city in their constituency, was actually of Birmingham Alabama, USA.

It was swiftly removed and replaced with a picture that anyone can find a few pictures down on a google image search, but you can see the original, and just how far it is from the UK's second city on Tom Watson's site.

Coincidentally there is a Leeds just a short drive from the Tory's newly expanded constituency and mistaking the two is easier than you might think. I'm sure the Tetley's Brewery is just round the corner from the station.
