#5  "...isn't BP a British company?"

Yes. English, anyway.

"Didn't the British release al-Megrahi?"

The Scots, actually. (Yeah, yeah, I know it's supposed to be all the same, but it ain't. Never has, and never will be, no matter what their national gummint says.)

I'm ashamed of one of my ancestral countries. Oh, Scotland, what has happened to ye? We need another William Wallace. >:-(
