How hard can it be? /ᐠ｡_｡ᐟ\

"So, like the haircut or....?"

When I laughed, he pointed out that 'you guys' (Tumblr), would 100% participate in tournament of Roberts. If you're needed ideas after this, we've got that going for us.

sighhhhhhhhhh

This isn’t exactly the usual vibe of my blog, but I cannot let this slip by. It is likely by now you have seen that Nigel Farage, the previous MP for Clacton, head of the Reform UK party and general village idiot, has decided to step down as MP under reports of misconduct, so that he can run again as a show of power over the people of Clacton. He seems disgustingly confident that he will be voted in again with ease.

It is no secret that Nigel Farage is a racist, xenophobic, ableist piece of shit. This is the most attention seeking behaviour I have seen from a UK politician in years. None of the other parties have risen to it, understandably seeing it for the childish tantrum that it is.

In fact, no person has come to run against him in the election, but one.

Count Binface, a comedian in a crown of stainless steel. (See the picture above for him in all his glory)

People of Clacton, it is now up to you. You can chose either to let this man win his childish power trip, or you can chose to let his career end in a face off with a literal rubbish bin.

Please, I’m begging you, if you have a sense of justice or even just a sense of humour, do not let this man win. Do not let Reform UK take more from us than they already have.

Between this and Platner’s campaign imploding politics news has me LIVING lately.

hm. this sounds kinda euphemistic.

an important thing to know about Count Binface is that he was previously Lord Buckethead, pictured here with Theresa May in 2017.

Lord Buckethead previously ran against Margaret Thatcher in 1987 and against John Major in 1992. Lord Buckethead ran for the Gremloids party.

Officially all Lord Bucketheads are the same Lord Buckethead who went away for a while and returned; however, it has come to light that Lord Buckethead (1987, 1992) and Lord Buckethead (2017) were two different guys under the bucket.

Following the 2017 general election the original creator of Lord Buckethead (not either of the guys who had worn the costume) asserted his legal rights over the character and 2017 Lord Buckethead acquiesced. and so, Count Binface came into being.

In the 2019 general election Lord Buckethead and Count Binface both ran against Boris Johnson, Binface as an indepent and Buckethead having joined the Monster Raving Looney Party. (NB this Lord Buckethead was a third different guy, not 87/92 Buckethead)

Lord Buckethead won the race (ie, got marginally more votes than Count Binface) but has not stood in an election since whereas Count Binface has been very prolific, running in two mayoral elections, two by-elections, and one further general election in 2024:
