I think he should resign, but if he doesn't, I can't think of a way of removing him that wouldn't set a dreadful precedent for the future. But then I'm a dedicated traditionalist.

Surely the *traditional* way of getting rid of no-longer-wanted Speakers is to send them to the Tower?

Depends how far back you go, I suspect - but I fully support it as a final resort.

Might put off the tourists though - don't want to lose all that useful foreign exchange. :-)

If you could make him part of the tour, you might bring in even more revenue. Especially if tourists are allowed to throw rotting vegetables and dead cats (available for a small fee, or bring your own) at him on alternate Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Might at least get a few more British visitors to our great heritage. ;-)

I'm sure there are stocks all over the country that are going to waste, and could be put to better use.

Has someone been reading 1066 And All That, by any chance? ;-)

All the time...

You missed the Friday night meal at the AGM where I was quoting significant chunks to people - I can't remember when I first read it, but it was in my early teens at the latest, and large sections of it still linger in my memory. So when I found that somebody had done a load of icons, I had to snurch the whole lot, though I don't have all of them uploaded.
