Great and notso great Britain's PM Gordian Knot Brown has often been suspected of being in the closet. Not the sexual orientation one, so much, though the jury is still out on most John Bull's boyos but the americanophile pantry...
Many a Britisher has squirreled away in their nut cases a rather fanatical attachment to the former colonies. Near naked pictures of Washington, Lincoln and every boy's favorite Jack Kennedy have been found in PM archives for centuries if not decades. Some have even created Facebook sites dedicated to, believe it, Ripley or not, Sir ted Kennedy!
Brown went totally down on the whol American thang and he came and came again all across the mountains, and the prairies and the Oceans with his foam!
