I wish I had a Count Biface standing in my area, I can really get behind some of his Manifesto
https://www.countbinface.com/manifesto
London Bridge to be renamed ‘Phoebe Waller’.
Ceefax to be brought back immediately.
Investment in 20,001 more police officers.
Nationalisation of the model railways (and Adele).
Ross Kemp to be the next poet laureate.
Massive expansion in recycling in all sectors except Hollywood movie plots.
£1 trillion a week for the NHS.
Sir David Attenborough to be on the fourth plinth at Trafalgar Square (or a statue of him, I don’t mind which).
Any Czechs on the Irish border are to be allowed to stay there.
Philip Green’s estates to be used as land for social housing.
Piers Morgan to be zero emissions by 2030.
Legalisation of the hunting of fox-hunters.
Regeneration of the “Intu” Shopping Centre, Uxbridge.
Speakerphones to be banned on public transport.
Donald Trump’s life to be the source material for a new pantomime at the London Palladium, starring Julian Clary as Trump and Gary Wilmot as Barack Obama.
Shops that play Christmas music before December are to be closed down and turned into public libraries.
Abolition of the Lords (all of them this time).
Universal Credit to be repealed and, more importantly, renamed. (Nowhere else in the universe would enact a policy devised by Iain Duncan Smith)
BBC commentator on all state occasions to be Craig Charles.
Katie Hopkins to be banished to the Phantom Zone.
The hand dryer in the gents’ toilet at the Crown & Treaty, Uxbridge to be moved to a more sensible position.
The BBC to bring back Grandstand, no matter what sports it can afford the rights to.
Jacob Rees-Mogg to be prorogued.
New voting age limit of 16 to be introduced. New voting age limit of 80 to be introduced too.
Nuclear weapons: a firm public commitment to build the £100bn renewal of the Trident weapons system, followed by an equally firm private commitment not to build it. They’re secret submarines, no one will ever know. It’s a win win.
University tuition fees to be charged to any politician who has ever voted for university tuition fees, plus interest.
Stop selling arms to repressive regime. Start buying lasers from Count Binface.
Novelty candidates in British elections must not be controlled or exploited in any way by film producers in the United States.
On Brexit: there must be another referendum, about whether there should be another referendum.
Oh and I’ll throw in free broadband.

I can't find a lot there to disagree with to be honest, better than the main parties promises anyway https://www.countbinface.com/manifesto

I wonder if lord buckethead is running again https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/jun/09/lo...
Yes, he is, but it's a different person under the costume. He has an active Twitter account and is standing in BoJo's constituency.Well, the overall polling still seems to indicate a reasonable majority for the torirs.
http://www.electionpolling.co.uk/polls/general-ele...
Servation got the 2017 ge, scot ref, and Brextt ref right.
The only ones to do so.
They have the tories ahead by 14.
Can only hope.
Betting for tory majority is 1/3
No majority is 3/1.
About majority 20/1.
Exchange rate is at a recent high against the euro.
Hopefully good signs,
as i don't trust a word any of the papers or other media say.

What is hilarious is media claims it could be the turning point of the campaign.
So not the parties' manifestos, not Leaders debates, not umpteen media interviews. No what decides elections is how you react to someone ambushing you with a news story that could be invented or exaggerated
Extra irony if those attributing such importance to the event condemned the importance of spin in politics, or the emergence of slick PR men like Blair or Cameron.
There's a lot of last ditch wishful thinking going on in Labour supporter ranks. Will it male much of a difference? Friday knows the answer.So not the parties' manifestos, not Leaders debates, not umpteen media interviews.

Well there have been several like it since, all the same sort of response. What the SW1 and media bubble thinks are turning points never are in the end. That end being 10pm Thursday, we will see.
Still sticking by small Con majority most likely, hung parliament quite plausible.
What's noticeable though is that the aggregate % of the big two parties was pretty much at an all time low, it's now back up to 80% ish. Small players squeezed as always.

He can't. Lord Buckethead as a name is apparently now protected by someone... So he's standing in Uxbridge as Count Binface - amusingly there was a subtitles issue on one daytime show that missed the critical "O" in Count...

Getting weird bits of info from all over the place. No idea really. Have heard some interesting snippets on where the postals are heading from a couple of constituencies which are either wrong, a statistical anomaly, the polls are way out or just those areas are the exception.http://www.electionpolling.co.uk/polls/general-ele...

So I'll stick my neck out and say Friday morning may not be boring. And having said there will now be only 6 constituencies change hands.

Well, no one really knows in advance, so its likely BS. What is correct, is that regardless of a polling lead of 10%; Boris coudld still lose / come in hung if the marginals don't go the right way. There are 90 of those, so it IS harder to tell than Boy Georges gender (back in the 80's anyway). So I'll stick my neck out and say Friday morning may not be boring. And having said there will now be only 6 constituencies change hands.

I have one regret about Theresa May resigning the leadership - we no longer have Lord Buckethead in Maidenhead. If she had still been leader, we’d have pitched to run his campaign from the local pub. With sufficient cunning, I suspect we could have put Labour into 4th place....
