  What’s he going to do if he actually gets voted into office?

    Literally anything is better than what that wankstain has done. But IIRC he has said a little while back he would actually go listen to people in Clackton and then represent their needs in parliament.

      Okay. I think I must have sounded like I doubted his sincerity or commitment. I don’t, I just didn’t think he was actually planning at all for the possibility of winning. Given from what I’ve heard of the situation that actually sounds pretty nice

        His commitment is to the satire, not to the idea of having to be an MP.

      Uhh I call bullshit. What kind of UK institution bars noblemen from donning their battle regalia in office?

    His videos refer to a book by the British politician who originally got elected as a joke, but went on to seriously be one of the most effective MPs. See Columbia, the white elephant costume comes off.
