Simple distraction politics, to give the voters something else to think about, and to look patriotic, in bad economic times.

I think we should claim the Sudetenland! Hitler's argument and motives were similar but he was rather more active.

The last monarch who fell foul, with finality, of Parliament or a powerful faction, was James II in the C17. He was chucked out and replaced by William III who was invited to invade and was then crowned jointly with his wife, Mary. They were obliged to sign a contract whereby they did what they were told and not interfere, no messing (not quite how David Starkey would have put it, but that was the effect of the law)

In addition to the Spanish exclaves already mentioned (Ceuta and Melilla) we must not forget Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera; and Llívia should be ceded to France.

Most significantly, Spain should also rescind all claims to the Canary Islands.

None of us are independant anyway! We are all ruled by an unelected bunch of crooks in Brussells.
