Would be interesting, wouldn't it ... now there's a way for Brexit to start actually working!

The only Brexit that ever worked was on September 13 1999[^] and that time some Brits took off with the moon.

Hmm, just wondering what the view of Boris is over the pond?

Most Americans don't bother themselves with UK politics.

A lot of Britons are paying a lot more attention to US politics, lately.
We do so love a good laugh.

looking up Boris exploits, I'm like F***, it's another Trump , one is too many.

Yup, we Brits laughed at you guys for trump, oh man that come back to bite us! 
|

for us, looking back we are saying "I guess Bush wasn't that bad after all" - still slightly an embarrassment, but not like today.
Will the Brits be saying soon: "I guess May wasn't that bad after all"?

The Title of Nobility Clause:
Quote: The Title of Nobility Clause is a provision in Article I, Section 9, Clause 8 of the United States Constitution, that prohibits the federal government from granting titles of nobility, and restricts members of the government from receiving gifts, emoluments, offices or titles from foreign states and monarchies without the consent of the United States Congress.
At the very least, he'd have to get Congress' permission (as well as winning the election in the first place).

Wouldn't that be funny if he was able to give himself a gift. From PM to President, "Thanks for the wonderful time last night."

I've always thought that national-level politicians spent most of their time stroking themselves heavily, so... yes.

Prime President of the United Commonwealth? The PPotUC?
Nah, you are just up to your old game: Export everyone you don't want to have around to the colonies. That said, do you see any way you could export our Angie[^] as well and let her run against him? Nothing much would change for the Americans, but both England and the whole rest of Europe may have a chance.
