They all have at least one

Antigua and Barbuda
Baldwin Spencer (2004-2014)

The colonial administrations will never fail you.

I feel John Howard for australia would be a good candidate for a potato if someone stole his glasses

and hopefully we'll avoid Peter Dutton at the next election, as potato-esque as that man is - and possibly no man is more of a potato - it's still just not worth it

Yes the Land down under is most fertile ground for the leadership of the nightshade family, as well as the much rare autoalliumophagic-faced PM.
