Newly discovered documents in Britain’s National Archives show that in 1956 former French Prime Minister Guy Mollet and British Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden discussed the possibility of France becoming a part of the United Kingdom. Good thing it didn’t happen, since each country would have had to find someone else to blame everything on, and Germany is so handy it would have been a prime prospect for them both. Not to mention that the idea of eating croissant and kidney pie, hearing Serge Gainsbourg sing God Save The Queen, and sitting down to a relaxing afternoon treat of tea, crumpets, and Gauloise would have been too much for anyone to handle.
