hellzabethSo have the UKsibs and... some colonies.
Aww, Bermuda's going to ask Iggy for more spells so she can sink more ships. Isn't that cuuute~?
Huge amounts of Irish immigrants essentially took over Montserrat in the late 1700s, making it British Empire territory by proxy even if most of the population was Irish in origin.
The Sheep Appreciation Club. Nena tells me Wales is looking very much like a dorky dad here over Falklands and New Zealand.
I know, I left out North and Scotland. I didn't have the time and every time I drew Scotty it came out... wrong.
And now.
England singing.
At the bottom, from left to right: England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.
The BBC is not allowed to pick any sort of side during the elections. Or ever. So they can't really express their opinion. However, radio presenters are sneaky. This song fits the Hung Parliament so well my mum and I were laughing when they stuck it on.
Oh yeah, and majority seperationist seats in Scotland and Northern Ireland = the guys leaving while England clears himself up. Wales hasn't got majority seats, but the vote to for separationist parties is second only to Labour.
Now watch as the custody battle over the colonies begins.
For those not up to date with British Politics;
-The first picture is Gordon Brown (the former PM) of the more left-wing Labour party. The second picture is David Cameron (shadow PM) of the right-wing Conservative party. The last picture is Nick Clegg (also known as "who?") leader of the Liberal Democrats, people who are pretty much in the middle of the political scale. Hence the joke.
- A hung parliament: when the election ends in an equal amount of seats between two parties with no clear winner. Last time we had a hung parliament was the 1970s, and it went to hell from there. Not looking forward to it.

The knowledge that France is the most powerful in Europe as well as the most stable is probably half the reason Ig's drinking from the tap.Sheep! They're so fluffy (even if Wales does seem to like them a little too much) and cute. No wonder everyone likes them.

The amount of sheep there are round here, Wales should be a sheep. :3
