as an autistic person with notable sensory processing disorders, the number of adult human beings whose reaction to unfamiliar foods never advances beyond a six-year-old's "that looks yucky" is astounding

I think the reason why gag candidates are so common in UK elections is thus:

1. Relative ease of running for parliament - you just need 10 signatures of residents in the constituency + £500. Which obviously is not a small sum of money but it's low enough that people are willing to blow it on a publicity stunt or a protest.

2. First past the post system + being a small country means that every general election is made up of 650 local elections, typically 1-2 towns worth of people.

3. Deep seated irreverence for politics.

[penny-anna]

the way i see it the benefit of the gag candidate is threefold:

to provide a kind of 'none of the above' option on the ballot paper, as a candidate with no actual policies or stances. unlike spoiling your ballot votes for gag candidates are real votes; there will be a publicly available figure of how many people chose the man with the bin on his head over any of the actual politicians.

to act as an ongoing reminder that anyone can run for parliament on any platform. and that's beautiful!

to act as a reminder to politicians not to get too big for their britches. yes, you might be the prime minister, but on election night? you share the stage with the man with a bin on his head. :)

Transcript:

Y'all better quiet down! I've been trying to get up here all day for your gay brothers and your gay sisters in jail that write me every motherfucking week and ask for your help! And you all don't do a goddamn thing for them! And they write STAR, not the woman's group! They do not write women, they do not write men, they write to STAR! Because we're trying to do something for them! But you all tell me to go and hide my tail between my legs! I will not put up with this shit! I have been beaten, I have had my nose broken, I have been thrown in jail, I have lost my job, I have lost my apartment for gay liberation, and you all treat me this way?! What the fuck's wrong with you all?! Think about that! I believe in the gay power, I believe in us getting our rights, or else I would not be out there fighting for our rights, that's all I wanted to say to you people. Come and see people at STAR House on Twelfth Street, the people that are trying to do something for all of us, and not men and women that belong to our white middle class club! And that's what you all belong to! Revolution now! Gay power! Know the gay power!
