Captain Sensible starts UK political party
“Captain Sensible, the 70s and 80s punk icon has started his own political party, The Blah! Party. He’s campaigning for no-nonsense, straight-talking politics and aims to become the biggest political party in the UK with over 300,000 members. He’s fed up with people marching on Westminster and then nothing happening, so he wants to take the politicians on, on their own turf. Come election time he wants people to vote for The Blah! Party and register a protest vote, then they’ll be forced to listen. Your support would really be appreciated and everybody else who is currently fed up with the state of British politics.”
You just can’t make this stuff up!

It’s a missed opportunity - surely the party should have been called the Monster Raving Sensible Party?
