The Weekend

London, England

It was a quiet weekend in London, England. The murders of the MPs had stopped. And while in general the public were disappointed, it did allow them to concentrate fully on the sensational, and considerably more momentous, conclusion to the X-Factor. With a suspect in a police cell, and the murders seemingly at an end, the PM was persuaded, for the time being at least, that there was no immediate need to invade the United States; until such time as it was established that Barney had been receiving his instructions from the CIA.

The invasion force of around five hundred men remained on board the three frigates off the coast of Maine. The Royal Navy reported to the US coast guard that they were unable to move on, as two of the boats had broken down and repairs would be some time in arriving. The United States were so used to things going wrong with British military equipment, they were happy to believe it.

The newspapers were generally kind to the PM. The expenses bunfight was back on the front pages, but as the PM himself hadn't claimed for any chocolate bars or repairs to his castle on Tayside, for the most part he was excused the opprobrium of the nation, and of the nation's media.

Life in London continued as normal, as the talks in Copenhagen limped on, and the world waited for the roof to fall in.
