Well, it's not all bad.  We have lost at least one day of
campaigning due to the Pope, and will presumably lose another on
Friday, as well as the one on Saturday due to the wedding.  (I
assume the church deliberately chose Friday for the funeral to muck
up the wedding in revenge for Henry VIII - seems only fair.)

OMG - I never even considered that, but now that you suggest it it's just so
obvious!

So here's my plan.  If we have a carefully paced series of
assassinations of respected world leaders, we may be able to
virtually escape an election campaign altogether.
 
If you do the Dalai Lama at the weekend, I'll have a pop at Nelson
Mandela a few days after that.  After that, it gets a bit more
tricky - would they stop electioneering for the sake of Bob Geldof?
It's worth a try, isn't it?  What about Vaclav Havel?  Suggestions
welcome.

Hmm, what about the Queen, I mean technically it is *her* parliament, surely
they'd pause for that (and if we do it fast we can screw up the wedding
again too - btw has it occured to you how many pissed off souvenir sellers
there now are in Windsor, since all their tea towels etc have the wrong date
...)

I don't know that Dracula or the strange pink man that we LibDems
inexplicably elected as leader would stop for Shrub (Bush Jnr for those who
can't work that out) but Blair would probably have to as he's probably need
to write a whole new set of policies. Most UK politicians probably don't
even know who Vaclav Havel is. They might stop for Geldof if we took out
Bono at the same time. With any luck by then we'll have a new Pope and we
can start the process all over again.

Just let me make sure I don't have any of these people on my Death Pool list
 you don't get points if you kill them yourself.

PS to any Secret Service officials reading this, I'm just joking
