I was going to suggest they may feel you're over qualified if you actually MANAGED to overthrow a Gov.

Yeh, never thought of that.

This reminds me of "fairly Secret Army" with Geoffrey Palmer.

That question should only ever be answered with one statement:

I'll chip in a couple of quid, who's with me?

We need a vote for which one though, time to elect a King/President.

Don't you just love the questions they ask on those?

"Are you, or have you ever been, a member of a terrorist organisation?"



As for the island / coup thing, yeah, why not. In for a penny in for a pound.

My old man is in politics, and once asked me about my political inclination. I explained my points of view, and he decided that I was a "radical revolutionary".

Overthrow the govt., or move to our own private island. I'm in! Where do we start?
