To be fair that is a fairly common belief in the states too.

If it makes you feel any better, it looks like we'll be getting our own imbecile soon. Looks like a guy called David Cameron will be our next PM. He is basically a puff of hot air in a suit who will make this country a laughing-stock when elected (rant over).

He's more the tory version of tony blair, makes his party electable by removing anything of substance from his party and taking advantage of the weakness of his opposition. If you want to point out a british politician that is a laughing stock then the obvious one would be the london mayor, boris johnson.
