    Arrow Which member would be best UK Prime Minister?

    With a smattering of Brits in our ilustrious band of brothers who can save Blighty?

    Could Nigel and Jan, Can123 or Loopy take the oath and kneel before the crutch of Chicky Winzer Camilla style?

    Of course it should be tissues and not poisonalities?

    Free tasty wonky Sausage distribution of the sage of Wongamat?

    Pocket fillings by Capitlaism's leading Dentist who sure knows the drill.

    Improved Grammar by our top TEFLRs who are busy revalving Armstrong-Squirrely

    Is time for a change or a SWITCH?

    Or a CHANGE

    Katie69/3, Troy , Harolbalderdasher, Misklit and Baldprick could do a fine jobby but like usOirish and Italo-Irish lack the credentials and kerb appeal.

    Farage Mechanic. tbe poundshop enoch, Poxexile is in the frame alongside firebrand knobjockey Norma St-John Poledancer.

    Of course the real choice seems to be between Reg "son of a tool" Dwingle and ChattChattychitwallah and Hal who ticks all the boxes but tragic failed teh IQ test by turning up at the hustings in a Man Utd jockstrap.

    Mrs Merkel would be my choice. She understands the flaws of capitalism, and understands why fascism must be avoided.

    Go Angela. A woman would put a stop to wars and men’s love of a good old fashioned scrap. Warmongering is not the way. Angela would solve any disagreement by thoughtful negotiation and diplomacy.

    ^ I think Switch must have had a 'senior moment' or perhaps that is now called a 'Biden moment'.

    But for an accident of birth and being under age, I reckon Yogi the dog would be more popular than the current choices. Maybe he could put Mendip up as a proxy.
    He already has pretty much a full Cabinet, they could meet around the pond every night and solve the world's problems in no time.

    Well, something within the bounds of the OP would be more appropriate. However, we all know you like to dig yourself a hole.

    He's as thick as two short planks, yet hyper-sensitive with it.

    Perhaps that's his Yorkshire side vs his 'artistic' side.

    Many thanks for the vote of confidence Shutree, but I would like to rule myself out of the PM job, I've got commitments elsewhere next week.

    And as for Yogi... I appreciate that we've had wimmin and now an Asian Prime Minister, but I just don't think that the country is ready for a dog PM, not even one of Yogi's class and integrity.

    On a linguistic level, the UK has already had a 'dog' as PM - a Thai dog no less, because Sunak means dog in Thai! สุนัข

    Care to explain how a dull Brummie could come to such a conclusion? No, because you prefer to fail at being mysterious and enigmatic.
    No one is fooled by your lack of style.

    The Prime Minister is paid two separate salaries with one being for their role as an MP (£91,346 in 2024) and another for leading the government (£75,440). Currently, the PM has a combined allowance of £166,786 but they do not need to claim all of this.
    Not a bad salary. I'd put my hand up, but I'd be terrible at the job of PM. I'd take a backbencher job though as 91,346/yearly plus perks sounds pretty good, but the drawbacks are meeting with constituents and lobbyists.

    Cyrille is the obvious choice, no one else is sarcastic enough.
