    Also, let's all name the poster we think most likely to secretly send hate mail to politicians. Me, I name:

    I must qualify for a Prime Minister or two back.

    I remember my dad saying that the American authorities dislike the British. Mind you that was after they wouldn't let him live in the States with his Yank Mrs.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    Oh now don't you worry now, dear! Britons still are and always will be right popular with any French authority!
    If I would have a say in it you'll always receive 'special' treatment.

    What would happen if an American sent such kind of message? Would he be disallowed to enter the US? Exiled? Or worse, granted french nationality?

    They get visited by the Secret Service.

    I wonder what will happen if an American sends such a message to David Cameron, will he get banned from the UK, or will the UK say sorry and compensate the said American?
