Your country needs to get rid of Stalin

- By JON LIVESEY

A POSTER featuring the iconic “Your country needs you” image has been ditched – after a complaint it looked too much like Stalin.

The World War One recruiting poster, featuring Lord Kitchener, was chosen by Archaeolog­y Scotland to advertise a history workshop.

But it was taken down from the walls of the Merkinch Partnerhsi­p’s offices after a complaint from Polish resident Jakub Pruchnik, who mistook the moustached Brit Lord for Russian tyrant Joseph Stalin.

He said his wife’s grandparen­ts were sent to Siberia by Stalin’s regime, which also killed many of his countrymen in 1940.

When his error was revealed he apologised and agreed the poster could be displayed.

But the partnershi­p, which receives public funding, neverthele­ss decided that Lord Kitchener should stay in the bin. HERE’S telly totty Anthea Turner flashing the boobs hubby Grant Bovey will miss after being dumped by the presenter.

Gorgeous Anthea, 52, has booted love rat Bovey out of their £5m Surrey mansion amid claims he had an affair with a 24-year-old babe.

The former Blue Peter beauty is said to have ordered the property developer, 50, to get out after he was allegedly spotted snogging Zoe de Mallet Morgan at a restaurant in London.

But looking at these snaps of Anthea airing her assets on holiday in Jamaica back in 1996, he’s made a huge mistake if he played away from home!

Anthea peeled off a skimpy bikini to reveal her pert breasts while topless sunbathing in the Caribbean.

Bovey – who was declared bankrupt last year – is said to be upset about being deprived of his wife’s sizzling hot body.

A source close to him says he’s admitted knowing the woman, but denies having an affair while his wife was filming a TV show in Canada.

He said: “The thought of him spending the rest of his life without Anthea and not seeing her lovely pert boobs again is driving him mad – it’s all a big misunderst­anding.”

Anthea, from Stoke-on-Trent, began her broadcasti­ng career on the radio before going on to present TV shows including Top Of The Pops and GMTV.

She married Bovey in 2001, two years after he left his wife Della, and went on to take part in Celebrity Big Brother.

Two years ago she agreed to appear as a judge on Canadian reality series Dinner Party Wars on Food Network Canada.
