(Lighthearted)

I've just seen this on FB and thought I'd ask here:

"If you could pick anyone (not an MP) who would you chose as our new PM"?

Or Jim Hacker! He'd be miles better than our recent real ones.

Santa could be a good option. All would be delivered by 25th December!

Yeah, but then nowhere to be seen for the next 11 months or so.

Richard osman with aa as chancellor

MyHamsterIsSmarterThanMe · 20/10/2022 19:54

Angela Merkel. Surely she must have 5 minutes a day of leisure time these days to sort out our shit?

If she's busy I've heard there's a lettuce available with great staying power.

Rexthesnail · 20/10/2022 19:57

Ann Russell, or Miriam Margoyles

JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon · 20/10/2022 20:17

Tony Benn

A proper honourable old school politician and his interview with Ali G was priceless!!!

LeafyGreen333 · 20/10/2022 20:20

Mick Lynch all the way!

the80sweregreat · 20/10/2022 20:22

Mick Lynch would be great.

MistyGreenAndBlue · 20/10/2022 19:14

Noooo. We'd end up with bloody Ant and Dec or something

Or Holly and Phil 😂

Tony Benn

He would have been wonderful up until about 8 years ago; now, sadly, not so much, though.

J K Rowling

PelvicFloorClenchReminder · 20/10/2022 20:29

Sue Perkins, Martha Kearney or J K Rowling. With Richard Osman in there somewhere too.

Inextremis · 20/10/2022 20:34

My husband, cos he's always right <eyeroll>.

Lonelycrab · 20/10/2022 20:34

Kwazii from octonaughts always seemed pretty straight up and got things done, acted with wisdom. So maybe him.

Not to be confused with the other Kwasi who wasn’t quite so good.

lifesabitchandthenyoudie · 20/10/2022 20:35

@Lordofmyflies yes!

Loveatortie · 20/10/2022 20:37

Larry the cat as pm,spit the dog as deputy.

quantumbutterfly · 20/10/2022 20:40

We should raffle it and raise some revenue for the treasury.

Cattytabby · 20/10/2022 20:41

Edwina and Patsy with Bubble as chancellor.
Or did we just have them?

quantumbutterfly · 20/10/2022 20:42

...or maybe some sort of total wipe-out assault course to weed out the lightweights.

Cuck00soup · 20/10/2022 20:43

Midas. We need someone who can improve the economy.

midsomermurderess · 20/10/2022 20:47

If they were still in politics, one of Rory Stewart, Dominic Grieve or David Gauke. Decent, thoughtful men. Yvette Cooper too actually.

PrioritiseCalm · 20/10/2022 20:57

JK R

ElegantlyTouched · 20/10/2022 20:57

David Attenborough as PM
JKR deputy
Martin Lewis as chancellor
Barack and Michelle in the Cabinet

Twoducksonthewindow · 20/10/2022 20:58

Rory Stewart

AnybodyAnywhere · 20/10/2022 21:01

ChocFrog · 20/10/2022 19:27

Ooh yes, in full Thor get up…..that’d stand out among the navy blue suits at international conferences 👍
