The English Lobby

Israel, Islam, Sikhs, Ukrainians, anthropogenic climate change, minority groups, NGO's, LGBT and just about any party it seems except the English, are represented at Westminster.

British is a legal fiction created by the British Nationality Act in 1948 by UK Fabian PM Clement Attlee. Clement Attlee’s Labour government introduced the British Nationality Act 1948 to reaffirm a unified British imperial citizenship in the wake of decolonisation and the creation of independent Commonwealth nations. Suddenly, any foreigner could be designated ‘British’ and hold authority and office. Fed up with clown world continuum, Arther, Ayşe, Alfred and Athelstan decided to take action and paid a visit to the gates of Westminster to request representation at the British Government Of Occupation. The bowler hat at British GOO HQ was not happy.

This artwork was inspired by a comment by American lawyer and political commentator Robert Barnes somewhere within his lengthy discussion below with The Duran. Barnes suggested it would make a pleasant change if someone were to lobby Congress on behalf of Americans. I thought it would make a pleasant change if someone were to lobby Westminster on behalf of the English.
