"Garbage Can Who Can Talk" - Marsh Family parody of "Englishman in New York" about Binface v Farage
As of 4.00pm this afternoon, the candidates running in one of the quirkiest and most pointless of by-elections in British political history were confirmed. The person representing the Essex constituency in Parliament, one Nigel Farage (leader of the MAGA-esque Reform Party), had resigned as the MP for Clacton in an attempt to deflect attention from his own financial improprieties that are being investigated by a Parliamentary Standards Committee. We sang about those already (he was given £5m as a gift amid lots of other dodgy dealings that are now being scrutinised, and he's getting very snippy in the media). But the fact that all the other major parties saw through the stunt and refused to engage with his attempt to dress it up as a referendum on his character (or "The People vs The Establishment") have now meant that his opposition consists only of the types of colourful/joke candidate that make a mockery of politics, often with fancy dress and satirical intent. So we thought we'd celebrate that, and mark the most bizarre and hilarious front-runner of the pack, who's already caught the eye internationally in the news: Count Binface, who claims to be an intergalactic space warrior.
