Hi EveryOne
At his meeting with HM the Queen recently, Kevin Rudd
turned to the Queen and said:
"As I am the Prime Minister, I'm thinking of changing how my
great country is referred to, and I'm thinking that it
should be a Kingdom."
The Queen replied, "I'm sorry Mr. Rudd, but to be a Kingdom,
you have to have a King in charge - and you're not a King."
Kevin thought a while and then said: "How about a Principality
then?"
To which the Queen replied, "Again, to be a Principality
you have to be a Prince - and you're not a Prince, Mr. Rudd."
Rudd thought long and hard and came up with
"How about an Empire then?"
The Queen, getting a little annoyed by now, replied:
"Sorry again, Mr. Rudd, but to be an Empire you must have
an Emperor in charge - and you are not an Emperor."
Before Rudd could utter another word, the Queen said:
"I think you're doing quite nicely as a Country."
