For the last 3 years, there has been a coalition government between the tea-drinking party (other beverages also welcomed) led by Norman the Foreman and the life saving party (led by Kylie). They have got on so well that they have now amalgamated into the tea-drinking and life saving party. They are being interviewed here by the PBC.

The candidates for this election are as follows:-

Lady Prunella Peacock (Accessories party)
Jack Jellyhead (Legalise robbery party)
Norman the Foreman (Tea-drinking and life saving party)
Nigel Garage (Plexit party) (although Playmoland voted against Plexit in the 2016 referendum)
Michael the beach policeman (Law and order party).

Voting opens at 7am (GMT). Any votes cast before then will be disregarded. Voting closes at 10pm.

I will be out at work all day then going to vote, so won't be able to return to the thread until about 8.30 pm. See you later!

whataballbag · 12/12/2019 19:49

Norman please!

Laska2Meryls · 12/12/2019 19:53

Dh is going for accessories party....

smemorata · 12/12/2019 19:53

I am drawn to Norman but think I've had enough of male leaders for the moment so it's another vote for Prunella.

Laska2Meryls · 12/12/2019 19:54

.I think Prunella is his kind of girl..

ScrumpyBetty · 12/12/2019 19:55

Norman the foreman has funded the tea industry excellently and invested in cafes and coffee shops all around the country. His forecasted budget may be a little ambitious but in my opinion you can never have enough tea! Norman gets my vote.

Tea drinking and life saving Norman and Kylie 🎄

viques · 12/12/2019 20:08

scrumpybetty. You have highlighted what I think is the elephant in the room.

Is Norman too close to the tea/coffee cartels? Is the tea drinking issue being allowed to overshadow other beverage concerns? For example, although the milk industry is allowed a splash in the economy I wonder that they are not beng given enough headway to develop say the suar free milk shake franchises that could bemeritus the teeth and bones of the nation's children. I sometimes get the impression that Norman is resting on his cushions and getting a bit complacent as he dunks his digestives .

nailsathome · 12/12/2019 20:09

Jack Jellyhead for me. Sounds like he would really make a difference

viques · 12/12/2019 20:10

Bemeritus? A good word but meaningless. I meant benefit.

NemophilistRebel · 12/12/2019 20:10

Jack jelly head here too 🤞🏻

FluffytheGoldfish · 12/12/2019 20:13

One vote for the accessories party and 2 for tea drinking and life saving party. One can never have enough beverages.

AShaveAndAHarecutHalfPrice · 12/12/2019 20:30

DD votes accessory party please

ForalltheSaints · 12/12/2019 20:33

Norman the Foreman for me. Tea is a wonderful thing.

Are the candidates practicing for a YMCA routine in the village hall pantomime?
