Never!
However, I got this from a rather amusing site:
Britain seems to be becoming more Pythonesque by the day. In one of the most iconic scenes from the legendary religious satire, The People's Liberation Front of Judea are presented with what appears to be a rhetorical question by their leader Reg (played by John Cleese):
What have the Romans ever done for us?
Unfortunately for Reg, those listening to the speech respond with the many positive aspects of Roman occupation such as sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a freshwater system, public health and peace.
It's almost as though the 1979 comic masterpiece has shades of the debate around withdrawal from the European Union.
