Dan O’Sullivan: I only just noticed one of the other guys has a mother fucking ventriloquist dummy with him. It seems almost impossible that would be the second thing you'd notice in a photo.

There is a 7 foot tall guy behind Rishi Sunak who likely ran for office just to be able to hold a printed out L behind him during his concession speech.

s-tier bit

I only just noticed one of the other guys has a mother fucking ventriloquist dummy with him. It seems almost impossible that would be the second thing you'd notice in a photo.

you know it’s a solid group of vanity candidates when count binface is relegated to third best

To be fair he got crowded out of this pic, you only notice him if you’re looking for him off on the right

oh they cropped the image.

(i guess that's actually a different photo)

What in the world is going on over there across the Atlantic, are you all okay over there

No, but this is actually an example of a thing that's okay.

The Brits are alright

I now understand Boaty McBoatface.

Omg someone mentioned a dude "wearing a bin on his head" and I assumed it was some guard in a traditional helmet or something not a candidate with a literal trash bin theme costume

this is beautiful & america should force the mainstream candidates to get on the same stage as the other weirdos lol

I would die if Biden had a podium picture with Vermin Supreme.

Future US elections

I just checked and Count Binface got three times as many votes as Monster Raving Looney guy with the puppet. This makes me happier than it should.

Now I know what all the skeets about Count Binface are about. Take out the trash!

There's also Count Binface, a person with a trash bin for a face.

Just visible on the right edge

Whatever happened to Lord Buckethead? Retired?

Some American copyrighted it.

That "some American" is the legendary guitar virtuoso who's been using the name since the mid-90s.

He did it to get money out of some English bloke who had never heard of him, and was unlikely to be mistaken by him. He may be good at playing guitar, but he’s also an arsehole.

If you'd built your entire career and brand around the name, you'd do the same.

Are you kidding me rn I’m crying

How dare you, he's an alien, not a person.

With friends like these…

easy to miss that when it’s all brits

Don't forget Count Binface!

and Count Binface is cropped out at the right www.news.com.au/world/final-...

good

British politics is an interesting spectacle indeed. There's also an inter-galactic space overlord with a bucket for a head called Lord Buckethead, now called Count Binface. www.reuters.com/world/uk/cou...

Count Binface, Elmo and AI Steve: the UK election's unusual candidateswww.reuters.com When either Rishi Sunak or Keir Starmer take to the stage to hail victory in the British election on Friday, they will be joined at their moment of triumph by either a man with a trash can on his head or someone dressed as "Elmo" from the Muppets.

assuming based on the yellow-and-black ribbon and general air of wackiness that they are from the Official Monster Raving Loony Party

wait, is that Howling Laud Hope himself? kinda looks like his Wikipedia picture

Howling Laud Hope - Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org

The dummy got its own ribbon so that's nice

What are the ribbons?

I haven't the foggiest

One of those traditions that won't die. You wear them when campaigning to let people know what party you're for, and on the results podium so viewers know who's face you need to read to get the result Each is in the colours of the party and each has to pick a colour that's different. I hated them

To be fair, that's the Monster Raving Looney Party

lmao

And then there’s Count Binface on the far right, mostly not in the photo …

And they cropped most of Count Binface out of the picture.
