the ugliest head of state in your country's history?

[Berethond]

Margeret Thatcher. No competition.

Margaret Thatcher doesn't count, she was never head of state.

 

[Mr Shrike]

Just look at those glorious chins!

 

[epikAXE]

Gordon Brown

EDIT: damn ninjad. See above post

Margeret Thatcher. No competition.

Just look at those glorious chins!

The Queen is the current head of state, not the Prime Minister.

Golda failed at everything but now she's winning the ugliest head of state competition

I'd have to say Canada's current ass...

Oh yeah, I forgot that! My that.

In that case, Queeny. She's pretty fugly right now.

Everyone's favourite skidmark on the bedsheet of Australian politics, John Howard (Prime Minster 1996-2007)

How can you pick John Howard when the current Prime Minister looks like this?

Combined with her hideous looks, her incredibly annoying voice means I wonder how anyone else in the world takes her seriously.

Konrad Adenauer:

Ludwig Erhard:

Somehow I expected Angie (Angela Merkel) here:

Oh wait! That was before she became the Chancellor of Germany and got a famous hairdresser for aid.

ehrm...maybe the difference is not that big...

 

[Naeberius]

Fear New Zealands, man woman thing. This is why we like the sheep .

 

[reg42]

The second one looks familiar, Is he an South African President?

Yep, that's PW Botha. He was a paranoid ************. Thought that communists were going to stab him at any second. In his mind black people = communists.

Jesus Christ! I think we have a winner...

I actually don't think Julia looks that bad, sure she looks a little too much like Big Bird but I think she's more funny looking than spine crawlingly ugly like Howard. And her voice, while pretty annoying, isn't nearly as bad as what she uses it to say.

Oliver Cromwell. Great man, founder of modern democracy, but seriously, one ugly ************.

Great Man? He was a religious nut whom pillaged his way round Ireland and Scotland in a near-genocidal fashion. He then appointed himself as Lord Protecter and ruled as some sort of regal dictator. (And banned Christmas, let's not forget that)

Heck, people were glad when Charles II was restored.

Oh, and i second Margret Thatcher.

Well with regards to the thread, he's definitely the ugliest guy whose ever been at the top, I mean, just look at him!
Thatcher is no beauty, but this guy's just hideous!

(for better or for worse, there is no denying that Cromwell was a great man)

 

[urathgodofsudani]

Oh, Dicky, Tricky Dicky, there never going to forget you. Nasty, paranoid and ugly as sin.

 

[The Artificially Prolonged]

Margeret Thatcher. No competition.

Damn ninja'd.

But yeah definitely Thatcher, ugly on the inside and outside. And considering the general levels of attractiveness of British politicians she's up agaisnt some pretty tough competition.

Gordon Brown would be a close second mind.

Bit pedantic, but Gordon Brown and Margaret Thatcher were heads of government, not heads of state. Our heads of state are the monarchy. The ugliest of whom is Prince Charles.

A bit pedantic, but Prince Charles is not the head of state until he becomes king.

Slight amendment to my original post;

Ugliest Head of Government: Thatcher/Brown
Ugliest HEAD OF STATE: Queen Victoria

There problem resolved

 

[TheTim]

Nixon, or taft

Oliver Cromwell. Great man, founder of modern democracy, but seriously, one ugly ************.

Agree, but 'founder of modern democracy'?! Indirectly, perhaps, but he was as undemocratic as they come. That and the fact that him and his Puritan ilk were the biggest bunch of killjoys to ever grace British public life.

I'm from the future, so I'll have to say her.

Oh dear God, I did not just see that... MY EYES!!
Why does Francis Wheen like this woman?! =P

OT: My choice has already been mentioned, so I'm just waiting for Spaniards to say:

Spoiler: Charles II

The 'poor' inbred fucker who was the last Habsburg king of Spain

or for Israelis to mention King Baldwin IV (the leper-king, so not exactly the prettiest boy about).

 

[similar.squirrel]

If by ugly, you mean sexy!

What a sexmuffin.

EDIT: That's Brian Cowen by the way, he was Taoiseach in Ireland from 2008-2011.

Should have used the potty portrait. But yeah, that man does look a bit melted around the edges.

 

[Skuffyshootster]

JFK.

Sure, if you don't look at him too hard he's not too bad looking, but upon closer inspection he resembles a frog with big jowls and a pompadour.

 

[Yureina]

There are few presidents in our history that had notable accomplishments or started policies that changed U.S society. Polk however is a strange choice I must say, even if he's remembered as setting and accomplishing most or all of his agendas.

And many of his agendas involved getting a war with Mexico going and taking half of their land. I take it that is why you would consider him to be a "strange choice" perhaps?

OT: Nixon.
