    LONDON, England (CNN) -- A protester who wanted his message to stick managed to superglue himself to the British prime minister Tuesday evening.

    They had this on the BBC too. But apparently his hands were just sticky.

    It was his hands. He glued them onto the PM's hand and arms.

    What is the standard penalty in the UK for gluing yourself to a prime minister?

    They glue you to the queen and force you to watch Amy Winehouse and mendhak eating pistachios.

    It depends if you're an British citizen or not. If you are you get a domestic trial. If you're not we send you to the Isle of Wight.

    I think they'll have a hard time making any charges stick.....

    To be honest, with everything the PM is going through, having some protestor being stuck on you isn't the worst thing in the world.

    Some people prefer a more hands on approach to what they believe in.

    Didn't we have a president who tried to glue himself to an intern?

    I am sure he was just trying to get more abound of his policies.
