No, no; if I were in charge (lucky Britain), I'd base my structure on Communist principles; marry it with the best of Capiltalism; add a soupcon of Liberal principles (my main ingredient); declare myself Dictator for 5 years (retirement obligatory, like the USA); no public voting (we're all ill informed, clueless and influenced by stoopid things like nice teeth and good hair).

I'd be the best King (or Emperor) ever.

Nice idea JK, but why you?
Why not me, that nice little lady down the road ... or Jimmy Savile ?

We'll have to have an election to decide !

no public voting (we're all ill informed, clueless and influenced by stoopid things like nice teeth and good hair).

Oh dear !

Because you're a useless right wing fascist, ITK, who supports murder in North Africa, where I'm a lovely, handsome Vile Pervert with great teeth and a deliciously crooked but attractive smile!

All highly debatable !

You can't 'marry' communism with capitalism, which you'd know if you understood anything about communism. Back to the tunes with you!

great minds think alike.

Jimmy Savile never needed to be Dictator as he was already the Most Powerful Man in Britain with the Royal Family and the Establishment under his thumb which was some feat for a man with dodgy hair and a shell suit.

Even more : he threatened police forces across the country by simple saying, when he was being questioned.."I'd like to see my brief !"...that's enough to have PC Plod trembling in his boots.

social democracy?

worked well for the UK for decades and the USA after FDR...still going strong in Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Scandanavia, Switzerland etc etc...cohesive societies with good welfare means the poor spend up big so business keeps rolling along.

poor old ITK still thinks Blair was a lefty when he was really a Reaganite

The most successful economy in the world at the moment? China - combining Communism and Capitalism to an incredible degree.

Watch Cuba boom over the next decade. Canadians aren't stupid..investing there like crazy.

Nothing to do with communism. You're thinking of socialism.

It wasn't ITK who voted for him or fell for it - it was those Labour dimwits
