Caption competition 10

CAN you write an Economist picture caption? The excellent standard of entries in our previous competitions suggests that many of you can. Here's a new chance for you to see your wit in print.

The photograph above will accompany an article in the Europe section in this week's issue. Since the arrest of Dominique Strauss-Kahn (pictured, with his lawyer), the French media have published details of alleged sex scandals involving several other politicans. These revelations mark a new openness for French news organisations, for whom the private lives of public figures have traditionally been taboo. Many observers hope that such frankness is here to stay—they argue that the country's strict privacy laws encourage the political elite to misbehave.

As before, it's up to you to provide the caption: please leave your suggestions in the comments thread below. The captions should be as short and snappy as possible, and definitely no more than about 30 characters long. The best contribution will appear beneath the picture in this week's print edition, which is published on Friday morning. Entries close at midnight London time on Wednesday evening, so you've got a little more than 48 hours. The only reward is that the winner can then truthfully claim to have written (at least a few words) for The Economist. Over to you.

Update: the competition has closed, and the winner has been announced.
