Yeah, the average British person just about knew his name and that he was some politician snoopcester Send a noteboard - 28/07/2012 10:00:26 AM
for now he has successfully changed that, he's now reasonably well known as a figure of fun... which is good going for someone who came here to show he was an international statesman. His Secret Intelligence Service has probably left quite a lot of senior people in the government, and the various branches of the intelligence services and military, angry at him though or unwilling to trust him with anything important.

I think you have to be careful, because you can't see it the way they do. - 27/07/2012 05:23:22 PM 614 Views

Let me tell you a story. - 27/07/2012 08:44:16 PM 759 Views

I agree with this too - 27/07/2012 05:38:15 PM 503 Views

Yeah - 28/07/2012 10:02:25 AM 605 Views

It was unmannerly and unstatesman-like. - 28/07/2012 01:09:36 AM 556 Views
I think some were at worst fleetingly annoyed - 28/07/2012 08:12:29 AM 702 Views
