The Best in the World

We British may have slipped down the world economic table, but we still have:

- The best army in the world
- The best spies in the world, or at least the best spy novelists
- The best health service
- The best Civil Service
- The best television
- The best pop music
- The best food
- The best weather
- The best education system
- The best religion
- The best cars
- Best lawn mowers
- Best public conveniences
- Best war films
- Best heir apparent
- Best cricketers
- Best attenboroughs
- Best call it a day

No wonder the whole world looks at us with a mixture of awe and envy.
