It must really pique the Americans
Great Britain has elected a new Leader
In three weeks with NO expense incurred
The UK has voted to leave Europe
David Cameron ~ fell on his sword ~ and
Created a Leadership vacancy !
Several contestants vied for the Top Job .......
Stabbed themselves in the back (we don't use guns !)
So this left THERESA and ANGELA
Both come from the Conservative Party.
ANGELA stepped down ~ made way for THERESA
No election ~ just selection ~ by MP's
THERESA now UK Leader 'til 2020 !
USA ? Ten months CLINTON / TRUMP shoot out !
Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome
This is a "blank verse" sonnet in iambic pentameter (10 syllables per line)

- Comment from author about the poem: Personally I'm very pleased. There were a few Clowns in the frame who all fell by the wayside ! Theresa has been an excellent Home Secretary for six years and is a very experienced Business Woman and Politician. She will negotiate our new place in Europe and with all our World trading partners. She can multitask! We have made our choice ~ please pray for Theresa in the difficult job she has been chosen for ! Love to all BRIAN XOX

God save the Queen! Congrats on victory & this poem! ww
THANKS WW ~ We've had Queen Elizabeth II for 64 years and Theresa is our SECOND Female Prime Minister. We are hoping the USA will see the light and elect Hillary to complete a Trinity of Powerful Ladies in the UK ~ USA and Germany ! AMEN ~ BRIAN
Good luck with that! I wish that hillbilly and trumpthehump would go home and lay down. Have a good day old buddy! ww
HI WW ~ I always feel the USA gets the President it deserves ! The current population of the USA is 325 million that means there are about 325,000 geniuses. The last President who was a GENIUS was the Third one THOMAS JEFFERSON. I guess today that really smart people don't want to be President ! Theresa May the new UK Prime Minister has a degree in Geography from Oxford University _ that makes her a GENIUS ! BRIAN
Wonderful write
THANKS TONY ~ Pleased you enjoyed it and got the message ~ BRIAN
Welcome
brain i find myself agreeing with you,now what to do with a man they call the corbin,liked this poem sort of summed up the comedy thats being played out here for all to see,game of thrones has serious competition from this lot.
THANKS ISITU ~ The LABOUR (Left Wing) Party are in a mess ! Jeremy Corbyn is a true SOCIALIST which was the original roots of the Labour Party when it was formed at the beginning of the 20th C. He was elected Leeder by a large % of the thousands of grass roots members of the Labour Party who are low paid workers ~ working class and true SOCIALISTS. The majority of Labour MP's in parliament are not SOCIALISTS but Centre Ground New Labour which was the Party led by Tony Blair. The MP's don't like SOCIALISM so they don't like CORBYN and consider that he is not electable is Prime Minister in 2020 when the next general election is due. The Shadow Cabinet resigned leaving Jeremy with the support of only about 30 MP's. Jeremy does not want to resign ~ an why should he ? He has a mandate from the Party Members of over 60%. Jeremy is still on the list for another election for a Leader and he will win again ~ STALEMATE ! HOPE THAT'S CLEAR ~ BRIAN
