Declaration of Revocation:
By John Cleese

To the citizens of the United States of America, in the light of your failure to elect a competent President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective today. Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths and other territories. Except Utah, which she does not fancy.

Your new Prime Minister (The Right Honourable Tony Blair, MP for the 97.85% of you who have until now been unaware that there is a world outside your borders) will appoint a Minister for America without the need for further elections.

Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire will be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed. To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:

1. You should look up "revocation" in the Oxford English Dictionary. Then look up "aluminium." Check the ****unciation guide. You will be amazed at just how wrongly you have been ****ouncing it. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'favour' and 'neighbour'; skipping the letter 'U' is nothing more than laziness on your part. Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters. You will end your love affair with the letter 'Z' (****ounced 'zed' not 'zee') and the suffix "ize" will be replaced by the suffix "ise."

You will learn that the suffix 'burgh' is ****ounced 'burra' e.g. Edinburgh. You are welcome to re-spell Pittsburgh as 'Pittsberg' if you can't cope with correct ****unciation. Generally, you should raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. Look up "vocabulary." Using the same thirty seven words interspersed with filler noises such as "uhh", "like", and "you know" is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication.
Look up "interspersed."

There will be no more 'bleeps' in the Jerry Springer show. If you're not old enough to cope with bad language then you shouldn't have chat shows. When you learn to develop your vocabulary, then you won't have to use bad language as often.

2. There is no such thing as "US English." We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take account of the reinstated letter 'u' and the elimination of "-ize."

3. You should learn to distinguish the English and Australian accents. It really isn't that hard. English accents are not limited to cockney, upper-class twit or Mancunian (Daphne in Frasier).

You will also have to learn how to understand regional accents --- Scottish dramas such as "Taggart" will no longer be broadcast with subtitles. While we're talking about regions, you must learn that there is no such place as Devonshire in England. The name of the county is "Devon." If you persist in calling it Devonshire, all American States will become "shires" e.g. Texasshire, Floridashire, Louisianashire.

4. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as the good guys. Hollywood will be required to cast English actors to play English characters. British sit-coms such as "Men Behaving Badly" or "Red Dwarf" will not be re-cast and watered down for a wishy-washy American audience who can't cope with the humour of occasional political incorrectness.

5. You should relearn your original national anthem, "God Save The Queen", but only after fully carrying out task 1. We would not want you to get confused and give up half way through.

6. You should stop playing American "football." There is only one kind of football. What you refer to as American "football" is not a very good game. The 2.15% of you who are aware that there is a world outside your borders may have noticed that no one else plays "American" football. You will no longer be allowed to play it, and should instead play proper football.

Initially, it would be best if you played with the girls. It is a difficult game. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which is similar to American "football", but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like nancies). We are hoping to get together at least a US Rugby sevens side by 2005.

You should stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the 'World Series' for a game which is not played outside of America. Since only 2.15% of you are aware that there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. Instead of baseball, you will be allowed to play a girls' game called "rounders," which is baseball without fancy team strip, oversized gloves, collector cards or hotdogs.

7. You will no longer be allowed to own or carry guns. You will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous in public than a vegetable peeler. Because we don't believe you are sensible enough to handle potentially dangerous items, you will require a permit if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.

8. July 4th is no longer a public holiday. November 2nd will be a new national holiday, but only in England. It will be called "Indecisive Day."

9. All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap, and it is for your own good. When we show you German cars, you will understand what we mean.
All road intersections will be replaced with roundabouts. You will start driving on the left with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.

10. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call 'French fries' are not real chips. Fries aren't even French; they are Belgian! Though 97.85% of you (including the guy who discovered fries while in Europe) are not aware of a country called Belgium. Those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called "crisps." Real chips are thick cut and fried in animal fat. The traditional accompaniment to chips is beer which should be served warm and flat. Waitresses will be trained to be more aggressive with customers.

11. As a sign of penance 5 grams of sea salt per cup will be added to all tea made within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, this quantity to be doubled for tea made within the city of Boston itself.

12. The cold tasteless stuff you insist on calling "beer" is not actually beer at all, it is lager. From November 1st only proper British Bitter will be referred to as "beer," and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as "Lager." The substances formerly known as "American Beer" will henceforth be referred to as "Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine," with the exception of the product of the American Budweiser company whose product will be referred to as "Weak Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine." This will allow true Budweiser (as manufactured for the last 1000 years in the Czech Republic) to be sold without risk of confusion.

13. From November 10th the UK will harmonise petrol (or "gasoline," as you will be permitted to keep calling it until April 1st 2005) prices with the former USA. The UK
will harmonise its prices to those of the former USA and the Former USA will, in return, adopt UK petrol prices (roughly $6/US gallon -- get used to it).

14. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not adult enough to be independent. Guns should only be handled by adults. If you're not adult enough to sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not grown up enough to handle a gun

15. Please tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us crazy.

16. Tax collectors from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all revenues due (backdated to 1776).

Thank you for your co-operation.

9. All American cars are hereby banned. They are crap, and it is for your own good. When we show you German cars, you will understand what we mean.

No I don't see the point, give us Ferrari F60(which it's not GERMAN) for free and I will understand what you mean.


All road intersections will be replaced with roundabouts. You will start driving on the left with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.

What the heck is a roundabout?? A Mini or a Smart? Both of them suck bird droppings.

Still feel I need to tack on my idiotic reply.


To the Subjects of the Crown residing within the former United Kingdom:

This is provided as fair notice that you are, and have been in fact for some time, the 52nd state of The United States of America. That being the case we would like your help informing Canada.com as we believe they are starting to get suspicious. Don't be mad, the Japanese sold you to us, so it could be worse. Please take time to review some of the corollary implications of this.

1. Effective immediately, dentistry will be practiced in the commonwealth of UK.com. It may just be an image thing, but we can't have you representing our country with a smile that looks like Elton John bashed up a piano.

2. Cricket is banned. We realize that most of you do not in fact play cricket. However, you started it, you have to clean it up. We will now have a first strike policy against any nation playing cricket. Nations that aid in the playing of cricket are just as guilty as those who actually set up the wickets themselves. You may keep your cricket bats and also can continue to play rounders or the even moe appropriate sport of rugby.

3. You will drive on the right side of the road. In this case right indicates both a direction and the correct side. We thought you would figure this one out on your own, the French did, but it hasn't happened.

4. You may continue to use the letter u to your hearts content. It really makes no difference, and it provides fair warning that the shipping schedule we are reading will take twice as long to process as indicated. If you want to argue with Microsoft about their spell check good luck. Early indications are that the betting is heavily on Microsoft.

5. Not all Americans are Yanks. In fact there are a great many people in the South of the United States that will be looking for someone to hit when you indicate that there is a Yank in the room. Not finding that person, they will be forced to hit you.

6. Guns are legal. You don't have to buy one. We'll be issuing them

7. Most of the rest of the world is made up of whinging little bitches. You already know this. You are now allowed to tell them they are whinging little bitches just like we do.

8. Food will now be edible. You may have to use the Indian and other imigrants to fix this like they did in the original 50 states.

9. Aluminum. Yes aluminum. Sir Humphrey Davy named it Alumium in 1807. In 1808 he changed it to Aluminum. Pressure from "classically educated" eggheads (see #7) led to it being changed to aluminium. We are willing to meet you half way and say caesium. However you will find both of them in the labratory. Unless you have an eye-patch, hump and harvest brains for your ungodly creations, you do not have a laboratory.

10. Most of your television shows suck. Don't be offended, so do most of ours. We are willing to trade airing episodes of The Simpsons for Red Dwarf.

11. You can keep using the Union Jack. If it is good enough for South Korean shoe factory sweetshops, its good enough for us. We can't seem to get the rednecks here to stop flying the Confederate Battle Flag, so we're not even going to start with you.

12. Please invade France. We know you want to. Send a warning to Spain.org to close their borders. We can't have one of our future acquisitions overrun. Don't warn Germany. They'd just do it first. Just ship the French to Germany disguised as Turkish illegal immigrants. Most likely nobody will notice. We'd help, but we're pretty sure your soccer fans could pull this one off by themselves.

13. Soccer. OK, this one is negotiable. We propose having our champion football team fight your champion football team for the naming rights on Pay-Per-View. That should be fair.

14. Regarding your socialist, anarchist, hippy population. Yeah, we have them too. We've cut a deal with Mexico.com (state 51) to let Mexicans that want to work hard and make something of their lives come north. But we get to ship our unbathed losers south into a special zone where they can create their own idiots paradise. This can be a win-win for you if you want in on the deal. It may even help with #8.

15. Gasoline prices are dropped by two thirds. Congratulations. This is what it feels like to be winners.

16. Welcome to real American cars. I've seen what are called American cars in Europe. Ha, ha ha, we can let you in on the joke now. Four and six cylinder cars are for whimps who pay $6 a gallon for gas. 350 cubic inches (5.7L for the French) is now the minimum engine size. Don't worry about reliability. You are going to wrap this thing around a telephone poll at 130 mph inside of 10,000 miles. It is your right and is part of a sociological modification to your society called Operation Cohonize.

17. The metric system. Yes it is a clever little system, but it was invented by the French. So, to use language they can understand. No.

PS: California is not a state. We sold them to the Austrians two years ago. Keep it quiet.

A note on beer
Real beer is made neither in the US nor the UK!
It is made in continental Europe, mainly in countries that have borders with Germany and in Germany itself.
An exception is the strange, foul-tasting stuff made in the Cologne area ("Kölsch").
Another exception is Ireland that, while not continental, makes stuff acceptable as beer (Guinness).

:D :lol: ;)

11. You can keep using the Union Jack. If it is good enough for South Korean shoe factory sweetshops, its good enough for us. We can't seem to get the rednecks here to stop flying the Confederate Battle Flag, so we're not even going to start with you.

Give up Dixie??

Never!!

john cleese is a master of comedy

Unfortunately it most likely isn't John Cleese who wrote this. Variations of this have been floating around for a while now. This is the first one I've seen that attributes it to him. Nothing about this one's shown up on any sites like Snopes yet.

A couple years ago there was another deal like this also attributed to him. A satirical article referring to the "Axis of Just as Evil", which was actually not written by him either. Link about that one (http://www.snopes.com/politics/satire/cleese.asp).

I agree though that John Cleese is a master of comedy. :D
