The Pope had just finished a tour of Great Britain and was taking a limousine to the airport.
Having never driven a limo, he asked the chauffeur if he could drive for awhile. Well, the chauffeur didn't have much choice, so he climbed in the back of the limo and the Pope took to the wheel.
The Pope then headed onto the M1 and started accelerating to see what the limo could do. Well he gets to about 110 mph and, WHAM!, there are the blue lights of our friendly motorway law enforcing police officer in his mirror.
He pulled over and the cop came to his window.
Well the policeman, seeing who it was, says "just a moment please, I need to call in."
The cop radioed in and asks for the chief constable. He tells the chief "I've got a REALLY important person pulled over and I need to know what to do."
The chief replys "Who is it, not Ken Livingstone again ?"
The cop says, "No, even more important."
The chief replies, "It's the local MP then, is it ?"
The policeman replies "No, even more important."
"It's isn't Tony Blair is it ?"
"No, more important", replies the trooper.
"Well WHO the hell is it the?", screams the chief.
"I don't know " says the trooper. "But he's got the Pope as a chauffeur."
