The Queen was mooned yesterday as she arrived in Brisbane. Police arrested 22-year-old Liam Warriner from Sydney and charged him with wilful exposure and public nuisance offences after he allegedly flashed his bottom as the Queen and Duke were en route from Brisbane Airport to a wharf where they began their river journey through the flood-ravaged city. Speaking after his release on bail, Liam said that he dropped his pants when the Queen waved at him, to reveal an Australian flag between his bare backside. The shipping container worker said that colleagues had dared him to do it. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/oct/queen.jpg" border="5" /> On the bayou: The Queen and Prince Philip prepare to set off down the river on Pure Adrenaline, a chartered catamaran, to view areas of Brisbane left devastated after January's floods. pic/afp He said, "I mooned the Queen.
