    In my defence they were sequential posts...

    Obviously I don't see Liz riding into the Palace of Westminster trampling MPs underfoot before chopping off Cameron's head... But if she did, I suspect Clegg would just stand there looking on gormlessly :)

    You have to admit though it would be very entertaining.

    Brenda liberating us from a corrupt parliament by riding down the middle of the commons on a white stead wielding a double handed sword and beheading both front benches would make BBC Parliament channel well worth watching.

    Considering the amount of burglaries, drug-raids, muggings, hijacks and killings down our street, I doubt there'll be much communal celebrating. My wife saw another kid walking down the path with a gun the other day. Jeez, what a town.

    Can't afford to, and I need to be close to my parents.

    I thought Bognor was a quiet seaside town. Maybe it's been twinned with the Bronx?:smile:

    Yeah, right.

    Every event MUST be in London (its the law apparently) so the rest of the country get dragged down there for no good reason (example - 4 Northern clubs left in the FA cup - Lets play all the games in London) so I insist you get all the riots like you get everything else. I assume you just want to pick and choose the nice events do you?.

    Hear hear!

    The UK is the most over-centralised country in Europe even worse than France. Even the Olympics are an exercise in shutting many of the world-class sporting facilities dotted around the country and building new ones near London.

    The FA's new stadium should have been built somewhere more accessible. After they built it in the same place again I promised never to go there again.

    If you get the army and police on your side and slaughter all opposition it makes no difference what you have "permission" to do...

    See Also: every deposed dictator :)

    Well, yeah, but the same applies to everyone. And getting the army (never mind the police) "on your side" is incredibly difficult. Even Oliver Cromwell never quite managed it.

    We're actually quite unusual in the UK, mind, in that the army doesn't tend to get involved in politics. 1659 was probably the last time they flexed their muscles.

    I will be on holiday anyway - Easter Hols (I work in a school) so we've been given an extra day on our 6 week Summer hols to compensate! (there isnt a smug emoticon)

    Just can't wait to see what the dress looks like, but my local has no telly. What a pity never mind.

    I want a replica guillotine in my garden on the day. I'll set up a table and chairs and demonstrate it while we eat jelly and ice cream.
