What happens if Count Binface wins?

Then he goes to parliament. Though the question is if he can keep his outfit.

His plan is to move to the constituency and serve seriously as an MP. Whether he does or does not do the whole thing in costume is another question

The constituency gets a significant upgrade over their current mp.

He has promised at least one (1) affordable house, and to make everyone's taxes but yours go up. Seems like a solid choice

They can force a by-election through various means, like a recall, for example.

Used to be the Monster Raving Loony Party in my day. Still, it's good to know politics moves on.

Amazing that the constituents are forced to choose between a talentless novelty candidate and Count Binface.

Nigel Farasshole is really pulling UK politics into the dumps

The reality is no one wants to vote for the 2 main parties. Here and all across the country
And I don't think the binhead is an answer, even if funny
Farage and Reform are still the only viable alternative
Also the media gives 0 coverage to the hundreds of actual good independent candidates
