Would you be willing to be Prime Minister?

Chalky

Nowhere near dedicated, clever or cunning enough to do it.

Fuck that for a game of soldiers.  Far too much responsibility and surrounded by slimey backstabbing bastards.  I couldn't be trusted not to launch the missiles when I was drunk and in a bad mood either.

My vote goes for @sambostar

speshul91

fuck that.

I would, but on reflection I'm left handed. I think that says something.

I'm pretty sure I'd stuff it up withing a few weeks or months. BUT the salary is nice enough and the pension would be very welcome ( I don't think it's conditional of time served). So I could bimble along until christmas and then resign or get challenged by collegues.

I was chairman of a local residents association. Not sure if that makes me qualified? Couldn't really find the time for that to be honest, so running a country might be a little too hard.

I have a lot of experience with Civ though, from the original, right up until Civ5!

Well, with the Tories imploding after the Brexit referendum, the LibDems being run by someone called Tim or Tom who is actually less distinctive than Nick Clegg, Labour fighting among themselves, and Screaming Lord Sutch long dead, now would be the perfect time for the FretBoard party to start fielding FB candidates for election. One of my priorities would be a meeting of the Cobra committee to review the current fret level. Any more?

The CObra committee is shit. They don't even use real cobras.

I wouldn't do it, as I am totally unsuited for the job and do not possess the necessary skills.

I can but assume that, in the real world, you really are Michael Gove.

Cobra is short for 'Cabinet Office Briefing Room A'. Allegedly it used to just be 'Briefing Room A' and the 'Cabinet Office' bit was added later to avoid the embarrassment of having BRA committees. Apparently true.

Real cobras can be a bit bitey.  And grumpy.  And spitty.

Yeah. Still totally would, though:

Yes I would. I think it would be an opportunity to do good.

Much better to be a mad -cap Dictator but I don't want the haircut that goes with it 
 Funny how infamous Dictators all seem to have a strange fashion sense
Hitler -silly Moustache
Kim -The haircut
Kim's Dad -the Yakuza style sunglasses
Ghaddaffi - Sunglasses also
Idi Amin- Forage cap
Simon Cowell - High waist Trousers

I'd be willing to do it, but I very much doubt I'd be any good at it.

Or at least, I think I wouldn't be any good at it because my first instinct would be to unceremoniously sack all the tossers in the cabinet who I've taken a dislike to, and of course that isn't how politics is done in the real world.

I think that approach means you'd most likely be very good indeed.

So... For you Gaddafi only looked strange because of his sun glasses?

Not really, I'd rather take up employment in something more honest, like house breaking or car theft....perhaps even an estate agent.
