How is it that we're asserting where this President lies in the chronology? I took it that the President in this story is implied to be Romana.

Rename suggestion

The reason I gave this the name "President" rather than "Lord President" was due to the lack of specified gender, and the fact this president was only referred to by that title. This term isn't without precedent either, see: President (Birth of a Renegade), President (The Deadly Assassin), President (The Three Doctors). Danochy 18:25, December 3, 2019 (UTC)

The other unnamed presidents are Lord President (The Mark of the Rani), Lord President (The Sirens of Time), Lord President (The Great War) and Lady President (Supremacy of the Cybermen) for all the precedents. --Borisashton 18:37, December 3, 2019 (UTC)
