People of England - your country needs you!!
As you all know, the eyes of the nation are on desertgrandma's poll.

It my sad duty to report that Canada (a country some of you may have heard of, lying on the further shores of the Atlantic Ocean, and bordering the North Pole) - has aquired as many votes as our own green and pleasant land.
And, as if that wasn't bad enough, France is actually ahead of us .

Now is the time to stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood and vote as you have never voted before!!! (Despite alarmist rumours to the contrary, you may wait till after afternoon tea before voting if you wish.)

Thank you all!

I think Canada votes should also count towards Scotland, since many of them came from here originally anyway.
Maybe Australian ones too.
I don't think you'll find anyone to accept responsibility for the Americans (although if it were me, I'd blame the English......)

Some should count for France, you know, with the Québec and all that

Being a Canadian of both French and Scottish descent, I'd love to help you all out, but I'm afraid Canada is going for the Silver on this one.

Besides, It's only natural that we stay indoors and read more in Canada, being so close to the North Pole and all that.

Ahem. Apparently Sparrow you have no shame. I've even seen a post of yours on the book vote thread offering to sell your votes!
