Next month I will be visiting friends in Minnesota, I have been explaining the British Constitution to them for over 10 years now and they still don't get it. But then, we don't have a written Constitution, we make it up as we go along, and it's brilliant for trivia quizzes, for example :-

Q. "What nationality do you have to be to join the British Army?"

A. "British, or Irish, or a citizen of a Commonwealth country, or Nepalese."
