Two wannabe federal MPs have staged a Lady Godiva-inspired stunt through the streets of Melbourne, hoping the sight of a naked woman on horseback will shock Australians into doing more about climate change.

Senate candidates Paul Wittwer and Kammy Cordner Hunt recruited blonde Sarah Keecher, 31, and a horse, for yesterday’s mid-morning ‘‘modestly’’ naked trot.
Five days ahead of the national poll, the stunt aims to pique voter interest in the policies of the Independents for Climate Action Now party.
It is based on the medieval legend of Lady Godiva, who is said to have worn only her flowing blonde hair as she rode a horse through the English city of Coventry to shame her husband — an earl — into cutting taxes.
Party supporter Ms Keecher paraded past landmarks, including St Paul’s Cathedral and the National Gallery of Victoria to expose what the candidates claim is Federal Government inaction on climate change.
