Always interesting to get an outsider's perspective of your own country !

Strictly speaking, we've already had a Prime Minister who earned the nickname Worzel Gummidge. Remember good old Michael Foot? He was a respected figure on both sides of the political spectrum, being the published author of various books about HG Wells, Lord Byron and others:-



Sadly, as PM, he proved to be a bumbling figure of fun, out of his depth in the modern cut-and-thrust of politics.

Anyway, unless there's a better nickname, I'm happy to go with BoJo The Clown for the (for the moment) present incumbent.
