"So, to be clear from the start, you don't have strong views about American politics at this point," Gabriela UreΓ±a, my interviewer, asked me as we sat in my living room.
"Not particularly, no. I am here and it does affect me, of course, but I am, in fact, ultimately an Englishman, even if arguably stateless at the moment. That's a legal status that would have to be worked out with the Crown and His Majesty's new Provisional Government. Which, I might add, has captured Lincoln and Sheffield as well as Leeds and Nottingham. Or rather, the New Royal Army has," I replied, even as I tried not to be too obvious at admiring the reporter's charms.
"I don't suppose that you will hold any particular role in the new British Government in the future, will you? Some kind of official spiritual guide or adviser?" Gabriela inquired, uncrossing her legs to show me her rather damp knickers.
"I wouldn't rule it out, of course. I am a British patriot, after all. I want my country to recover, and indeed prosper, in the wake of this disastrous regime and its downfall. I would have to applaud those American military forces who have aided in the liberation of Bristol and Exeter, plus the Island of Wight. The collapse of the New Order tyranny is now only a matter of when, not of if. The sooner they fall, the sooner we can look to the future," I added, making it clear that my sentiments about New Order hadn't softened in the least.
"So, no particular concern that, if the House of Representatives chooses Bernie Sanders instead of Donald Trump, he might withdraw the troops too soon?" Gabriela pried a little further, though to be fair, she was just doing her job.
"I don't doubt that if he was already in office, Bernie Sanders would have ordered an intervention at the request of the Crown, just as President Trump did. This is about restoring political and personal freedom to Mother England. No American President could do any less in his or her right mind. It wasn't an easy thing to ask, especially after so many of your wars these days, but who wouldn't lift a finger to save such a historic ally of the United States from tyranny and oppression?" I expressed my confidence in the United States, rather than a particular party or President, "that said, I'm obviously grateful to the President for what he did for us."
