Seriously, I'm actually pleased to have a break from serious political debate for a short while.
Speaking as a jingoistic Colonel Blimp, you don't know how glad I am that someone else said that and not me!

However, we can only let the British bits back into the Empire - and perhaps the areas we reserved for the Indians. The rest would have to go back to France, Spain, Russia and Holland ... and Hawaii would be on its own.
