To think Count Binface is doing a great job in the Clacton by-election?

Count down to Bin Day!

Count Binface has been out bigging-up Clacton and drawing attention to its potential.

It’s a really positive campaign.

I don’t think he’ll win but I’d love it if he did. I think he’d be brilliant.

And if he doesn’t, I think other candidates could learn a lot from his approach.

Saving his energy for the next Clacton by-election perhaps.

I think he has shown he can be highly effective in the right circumstances, but I’m not sure how those stars could ever align in quite the right way again.

I think he’s right to leave this one for the Greens and Labour to fight it out.

Thanks… good decision.

Looking forward to the next episode of the Clacton soap opera.

Count Binface is the most sensible one of them all.

His manifesto will need a tweak if he is to stand again...

He tweaks his manifesto every time he stands.

He does. I have voted for him for London Mayor and he always has local issues in his manifesto.
