Disaster planning

If Great Cthulhu devours the Houses of Parliament during, say the State Opening of Parliament, and removes at a stroke all Members of Parliament, all members of the House of Lords, the Privy Council, the Monarch and all the senior Royals...

Who is left in charge?

Oh yes! It might take him some time to work out who would be needed to appoint him acting prime minister.

Although, he is not very far away, so we'd be relying on Great Cthulhu staying in the river and not getting out to stomp about.

A. Can the Great Cthulhu fit in the Thames?

B. If yes, how did he get past the Thames Barrier and under all the bridges?

If we're very lucky, he's working from out-of-date maps of the Thames, and finds his evil apocalypse thwarted by modern flood defences.

He will go through anything that his beak will go through, of course.

I have researched this matter! On Youtube!

Ewww!

Or maybe Wow!

It looks like quite a slow process, though. I imagine Cthulhu would be rather vulnerable while he's doing his glooping. An alert military could exploit this.
