lol, Krellis. Stop being so accomodating. dr kapp is a persistent vandal - I'm going through his edits of all kinds of stuff and finding vandalism everywhere. It's just more visible when he expresses his hatred for the U.S. since that page is monitored closely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hyperionred (talk • contribs)
Numbering of British Prime Ministers
[edit]I've removed the numbering from the infobox Gordon Brown. British Prime Ministers aren't numbered like US Presidents for several boring reasons. Firstly, the term "Prime Minister" wasn't used until the early twentieth century, before then the office was called "First Lord of the Treasury". Another thing is, the United Kingdom didn't exist until 1801, before then it was Great Britain, so technically Robert Walpole was the first Prime Minister of Great Britain and Henry Addington was the last Prime Minister of Great Britain and the first Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Also, there is a debate as to weather non-consecutive terms are counted twice, like the way the Americans count Grover Cleveland, the Downing Street website says Gordon Brown is the 52nd person to walk through the doors of Downing Street as PM not the 76th. Then there is the issue of how many times Ramsay MacDonald is counted as the government changed part way through his second term but he remained as Prime Minister. Finally, it's just not a British tradition to count the number people who have held a particular office. Hope you understand. --Philip Stevens (talk) 07:01, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
