          They already shoot hurricanes in Florida, and those produce the occasional rainbow. I think they already are.

    Non-UK people should read up about Laurence Fox if they want a good laugh.

    Some career highlights:

    • Destroyed his acting career and his marriage by being an upper class right wing shit.
    • Destroyed his subsequent gig as a right wing pundit on GB News by being too misogynist on air.
    • Called some drag queens paedophiles after they called him racist. He was sued for defamation and he countersued. He lost on both counts.
    • Stood for election as an MP and lost his deposit.
    • Stood for election as London Mayor and lost his deposit.
    • Tried to stand for election as London Mayor a second time and didn’t get on the ballot because he didn’t fill in the paperwork correctly
    • Stood for election to the London Assembly and lost his deposit.

      To be fair to him, on his first run at London Mayer, he did get nearly twice as many votes as Count Binface, a candidate who claims to be from space and wears a dustbin on his head.

        Not sure about Count Binface since I don’t really follow UK politics, but if he’s anything like Vermin Supreme his platform is likely both preferable to and more realistic than the mainstream conservative party candidates’ plans.

          Novelty candidates are a highlight of UK politics - practically every high profile election has some.

          The brilliant thing is that they’re treated as seriously as the main party candidates by the election machinery - they appear on politics programmes and appear onstage stood next to the career politicians on count day.

          H’Angus the Monkey, the Hartlepool FC football mascot, even got elected as mayor of Hartlepool a few years back.

          There’s an entire novelty party, The Monster Raving Looney Party, which has been going strong since the 80s, and fields candidates across the country.

              Totally real. They’re actually looking for suggestions right now for their new manifesto on Twitter, if you use it (search for #manicfesto - note the “c” in there).

        You lose your £500 deposit if you win 5% or less of the valid votes cast in the constituency. It’s to discourage no-hopers from taking part.

      Not his money though. He’s bankrolled by noted Steam train owner Jeremy Hosking, who provides Fox with a central London office, secretary, company car and very large expense budget, expecting no return on investment at all, just to spread hate. Reportedly Fox spends most days snoozing at his desk.

        “Officially” TST, though I found out a couple years ago about Queer Satanic and so I’ve been eyeing their struggle. So at the moment I’m unsure, you could say.

        I’m of the “there is no god, but if there is he/she/they/it is a massive piece of shit” camp, so atheist looking for some recognition, really.
