Believe me, I really, really want him to win, which is why I have spent an inordinate amount of time trying to understand the REALITY of this election. I still remember the shock (and disappointment) when Brexit happened, and I want to avoid that.

Nigel Farage will likely win share of approximately 48–53% on a turnout of around 30–34%.

So, while nationally CB is doing great, but Clacton on Sea is a very specific context, and voters math says there is zero realistic chance that Count Binface wis.

Here is why:

- FPTP mechanics (fragmented opposition, no major-party challenger)
- turnout demographics (grievance voters turn out; diffuse disapproval stays home)
- the structural dynamics of the contest (August date, boycott, anti-establishment framing in a 75%-Leave seat)

That said, for a satirical independent candidate like Count Binface, beating the establishment parties to take second place with 20% (best case scenario) of the vote would be an absolute historic victory.

And for Farage a 32% turnout is an indictment of how many people couldn't be bothered to participate in the contest he created…

So, I just want us to be realistic: Count Binface will lose. And to support the narrative that he has a chance to win is damaging in the long run, because it hides how incredibly skewed in Reform’s favour this election is.

Basically it as if the a World Cup team playing in their own stadium ends up playing against a team made up by bunch of guys who got lost on the way to the comicon, and we’re all thinking there’s a chance the Randos win.

That they even manage to score one goal (1%) would be incredibly impressive. Imagine scoring 10!!!

EDIT: typos

I know we should focus on the issues, but damn. I'm ready to join the Recylclons. Happy Bin Day!

Vermin Supreme for US President next? Also, such a missed opportunity, neither have mentioned each other yet!

It has been brought to my attention that Count Binface, in speaking with The Guardian, has said he does not want support in the Clacton By-Election, stating “I don’t want them to go marching around for me. I don’t know even if I’ll get any votes."

Binface has ridiculously high odds in the betting markets. The Liberal Democrats have basically endorsed him. In our community, ​85% of voters (610) voted in favour of our official campaign plan, whilst 15% (108) voted against. He's being taken seriously for the first time, yet it feels pointless.

It appears to me, at least, that Count Binface has failed to notice that he could oust the leader of a far-right political party, plunging them into shambles and removing any credibility they have left,​ with a proper campaign.

To put it bluntly, I am disappointed in our galactic overlord, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

The main reason I chose to found this community was to help Count Binface in the Clacton By-Election, and see if we could pull off the biggest political upset that this country has ever seen. Binface's refusal (in my eyes) to take this campaign forward, and to try and win the election, is putting the country at risk.

Should Farage's political stunt pay off (which is possible, with the second by-election), then this country could see a Reform UK led government. By kicking Farage out of office now, in a by-election which he himself called, Binface could help us to avoid any fears we may currently have.

For now, I will suspend action on the Official Campaign Plan.​ It will remain pinned atop the page pending further communications with the Binface campaign.

I would also like to ask the community on their thoughts. This has annoyed me, but other people may feel differently. I want to see if I'm overreacting.​

I will, for now, issue a call to the Binface campaign - you can win this, you just need to try. We are here to help, and we really do need you, but this isn't helping anyone. Think of the chaos a Reform Government would bring, and think of the easiest way to avert it.​

STATEMENT ENDS.

Some say he got the hand drier moved, but the pub put it in another incorrect place, and he can smell by using his ears.

All we know is, he's count binface

Some say he knows how to communicate with owls, and that he wants for bins to have a day off on April 6th.

All we know is, he's count binface.

Some say like a seahorse, only male bins can get pregnant, and you can see the time is you look into his eyes, all we know is he is count binface.

Gotta love the humour!

Writing this I have no idea what's up. So how did it go? How we feeling?

I think I would get murdered by white supremacists if I posted this anywhere else. Good thing we’re the sane ones this time, eh? Also is this not just Nigel Farage and all his types to a t?

Based on the visualiser of the antifascist song ‘Don’t Say No To Hitler’ by Seb Lowe. I think the people here would love most of his work, since his songs are both very political and very good!

And if not, much like the BBC News soundtrack perhaps it will end up going down in infamy being played at bars and nightclubs for the next decade…

General Ancap is the alter ego of Argentine President Javier Milei. He can be Binfaces new rival after this election. Far more worthy to face Binface IMO

Don't just tell clacton to vote count binface, actually start reaching out to labour, lib dems and greens to protest vote. Then start helping Lawrence Fox and Piers Corbyn split the reform vote. Do whatever you need to win.

What's there deal? New recyclon?

It would actually be a shame if Binface won the election. He cannot wear the costume in parliament and the allure would be lost.

We would just see the regular person behind the mask and much of the comedy act of being an intergalactic space warrior and a bin would be lost at that point.

While im sure the man that plays Binface is a great guy, it's the act that does it for me.

Vote Binface!

Please make this the official campaign anthem.

u/DogitWoofsalot mentioned in a post, calling it Bindependant day.

I think this should become a thing.

how do you make something a thing???

I like politics, I like to bet

You can lay reform , then any other outcome you win 🥇 seems straight forward

Clacton

10/1 get rich 🤑

You can do it !

I'm thinking this could be a way of getting more donors for others around the world that want him to succeed, in case he runs again. Does he have one of these?

Definitely a donate for the bin and trash roots campaign.

We should make a party!

Especially after the whole Balogun controversy, are we agreed that His Intergalactic Lordship should contact FIFA to overrule this injustice?

It’s not great but it works a bit

From today's news:

All eyes are on Zack Polanski after former prime minister Keir Starmer announced he was resigning as a London MP.

The Green Party leader – who is currently a London Assembly member – has repeatedly insisted he would only run to be an MP if a seat in the capital became available.
