By jingo!

We don't want to fight but by Jingo if we do,
We've got the ships, we've got the men, we've got the money too,
We've fought the Bear before, and while we're Britons true,
The Russians shall not have Constantinople!
Ah, but I was so much older then ... I'm younger than that now

Alexander Johnson is clearly modelling the future version of this country on North Korea.

With Scotland and Northern Ireland gone he will be left with a country, which, because of its first-past-the-post voting system and re-jigged electoral map, will be a one-party state.

Consider - both the leaders of England and North Korea:
    are cosying up to China, and
    are intent on having large nuclear arsenals.

In addition they are both overweight and have ridiculous hairstyles.

Apparently we have less nuclear warheads than France, 300 vs 260. Why did I always suspect that was a motivation behind increasing ours by at least 2x40?
