TSR is asking...which celebrity would you choose to make prime minister?

Some might say that politics has been taken over too much by the cult of celebrity already. Others might say that whoever you choose, they surely can't do as bad a job as Liz Truss.

What character traits or occupations do you think make a good PM? Would a sportsperson's drive and leadership help them run the country better? Would an actor put in a better performance in parliament and on the world stage? Would the thoughtfulness of an author or the method of a scientist make for better political decisions?

Let us know who you think would do the best job!

Yes i like him from Ducktales

The late Fabulous Finn would make a fantastic PM.
He was an amazingly brave, good looking and dedicated police K9.
Highly intelligent, gutsy, loyal, very hard working, an honest team player, selflessly committed to making the streets of England safe for the law abiding population by doing his utmost to catch predatory jailbirds and deter criminal sewage from undertaking further crime sprees within public places & other people's premises.
Very kind, intuitive, with a comforting presence and extremely affectionate nature towards the most vulnerable of crime & abuse survivors in need of some support from a barking furry friend.

A wonderful police dog and very effective campaigner for FinnsLaw.
Campaigning to toughen up legislation and pave the way for longer sentences to be issued to the thuggish felon lowlives that attack police K9s or horses and other service animals (including guide dogs for the blind).
Fabulous Finn leaves behind a remarkable legacy as a K9 hero whose years with the police exemplify all the best elements of British police culture in practice and the very essence of British public service.
His story, years of police service and achievements post-retirement will never be forgotten.
RIP Finn.

Ian Hislop or Alison Hammond, am unsure of which one to choose because there are so many pros and cons to each smh
Stephen Fry, hands down.
