Bus Pass Elvis party beat Lib Dems in election

A pensioner dressed as Elvis has beaten the Liberal Democrats in a local council by-election.

David Laurence Bishop, who goes by the name of Lord Biro, stood as a candidate for the Bus Pass Elvis Party.

He received 67 votes in the by-election in Clifton North, Nottingham, with Lib Dem candidate Tony Marshall coming last with 56. Labour won with 1,174 votes.

Just when you think the Lib Dems stock can’t get any lower this happens and they get fewer votes than a crazy man representing the Bus Pass Elvis party.

Nick Clegg had the audacity to day he wasn’t embarrassed by the result, well he bloody well should be given that in the manifesto of the guy who stood for the BPEP, was a plan to legalise brothels with a 30% discount for OAP’s.


If you’re serious about being a mainstream political party and you’re losing to joke candidates then there really isn’t much hope left.
