Could the Zimbabwean Army take over Britain, too, please? Anyway, "It's not the King, it's his advisers" was not original even when the Peasants' Revolt came out with it in 1381. And we all know what "This is not a coup" means.
As for "If you weren't there during the War of Liberation, then you shouldn't be running anything," in my time I have heard that one said about the War (just), about the Swinging Sixties, about both sides in the Eighties, and about the Blair Years. It will be said in due season about the Corbyn Years, quite possibly by me.
In the days when it was "Loony Left" to oppose the British arming of Saddam Hussein, it was also "Loony Left" to oppose Robert Mugabe, Margaret Thatcher's most abiding legacy, who was only killing black people at the time, so no one in a position to do anything about him cared tuppence.
