"But it's not like the British could be expected to understand the implications of a Parliament, funny french-sounding word that it is."
In our defence, it sounded like all the members of that parliament were going to be elected, which doesn't really sound like a proper British parliament. Why couldn't members receive their place just because their great-great-great-grandad had kill a bunch of foreigners (and his own soldiers), or just because they were an arch-bishop or any of the other totally sensible and modern reasons that our betters are in the house of Lords.
