If you could have anyone in the world as the UK Head of State who would you choose?

I would choose Michelle Obama. Incredibly bright, passionate and well connected woman who is used to talking to world leaders.

Alan Bates, of Post Office challenge fame.

nice.

The guy who set up Bank of Dave. He is a very good ethical businessman and throws his power into making life better for people. He would be an amazing Head of State.

whatever happened to him/ the bank?

Jesus would be a good choice I think but, if he refuses the job, I vote for Nigela Lawson or Declan Donnelly.

JoyousGreyOrca · 10/03/2025 18:46

@Mightymoog the bank is still running. But it is called Burnley Savings and Loans.

@BlondiePortz It is a light hearted thread. Simply who is your dream Head of State.

John cooper Clarke!

I think The King is doing an excellent job, so I'll keep him, thanks.

What the fuck is he doing?

JoyousGreyOrca · 10/03/2025 18:49

@Peakypolly I suggested Jesus, but he is I think over qualified for the position. He would be an interesting Head of the Church though and would certainly take that responsibility seriously.

apparently he chats well and has a good tailor.
Well worth £135 million per year. ( and the rest of course)

Gall10 · 10/03/2025 18:50

Greedy twat… exactly!

JoyousGreyOrca · 10/03/2025 18:50

I doubt Jesus has a good tailor though.

Now this I can really get behind. Annoyed didn’t think of it myself.

Mightymoog · 10/03/2025 18:36

LOL.
have you seen the amount of medals the RF wear.
Princess Anne has a rows of them

Except PP was mentioned in dispatches, that doesn't happen because of royal connections, it only happens because it's deserved. Lol.

Otherwise I'll plump for Rory Stewart purely on the strength of his book, Politics on the Edge, which is an excoriating review of the process of government in the UK.

That's a brilliant book, such a great read.

FatArse123 · 10/03/2025 18:58

Yes, Jo Brand would be brilliant, I love her.

Inextremis · 10/03/2025 18:59

Brian May. Brilliant man.

Status Quo, as a duo. Tax relief on stone washed denim.

Supernanny (Jo Frost) so we can all legitimately moan about being in a nanny state and Trump can be placed on the naughty step when he comes over for his state visit.
