But today its our PM who gongs the Poms. "Rise Sir Prince Philip," said QE2 to her hubbie on Australia (Invasion) day. What a joke.
Please take him back, the PM that is, and the last one too, they're both from 'the Old Dart'. They're the worst PM's this country's had in living memory - and that includes Sir Billy MacMahon
