Having heard that Ukraine has elected a comedian as president I wondered who I'd vote for if we had to elect one.
Josh Widdecombe would cheer us all up. David Mitchell might be too intellectual and cynical. James Acaster too off the wall.
Possibly Rob Brydon? I'm not sure.
Not interested in responses commenting on current politics please.
Who would you suggest?

Rob Brydon? Jack Dee - too cynical?

Well it's obvious really we have Boris waiting in the wings.

Difficult one as most comedians are lefties.

Stephen Fry is clever, funny and has gravitas too. He's had an interesting lifestyle.

Ken Dodd, we would all pay less tax. (Wouldn’t have any public services though!)

Billy Connolly or Mrs Brown. I find very few of the comedians today funny.

Don’t get the Mrs Brown thing, can’t see anything remotely funny in it, but I think Stephen Fry would be good

Romesh Ranganathan. He’d be hopeless on his own, but unstoppable with his mother in the Cabinet.
