The Official Monster Raving Loony Party

Shropshire North By-election

I was keen to start nice and early with the hustings in Shropshire North so arrived a week before the by-election on the 9th December. I was booked into the ‘Shrewsbury Wetherspoon Hotel’ with the compliments of Tim Martin and was ready for seven days of campaigning. The ‘Flying Brick’ and our local man ‘Englebert… Read More

Bananas refused at Old Bexley & Sidcup by-election count

Due to the inclement weather my campaign was heavily concentrated in cosy pubs where local drinkers readily approached me and my team for information. We left the cold-calling on cold doorsteps to the other parties. Pubs in both Bexley and Sidcup were covered, including Wetherspoon’s of course. Handed out were million pound notes freshly picked… Read More

Rainbow George (George Weiss)

I first became aware of George way back in the mid 80s, a good friend of Screaming Lord Sutch. He had his own party called ‘The Rainbow Party’, we used to team up with him at various elections. He would often come along to some of the seats that we were contesting as well. A… Read More

We won…..Old Bexley & Sidcup Result

Well done Mad Mike who stood in the Old Bexley and Sidcup by-election. It seems that all the parties are claiming victory, but the reality is that Mad Mike Young (Loony) who got 94 (0.43%) votes, actually was the winner with a 100% increase in his vote. A big thank you to all of the… Read More

Old Bexley and Sidcup By-election

I was honoured and humbled to be asked by our leader to represent the party. On Wednesday 3rd November polling day was confirmed for Thursday 2nd December with nominations closing on Tuesday 9th November. I had taken my eye off the ball and didn’t know until the Saturday. I was unable to do anything over… Read More

Our new Minister for Cheery Pessimism

Tiernan Douieb is an award winning stand-up comedian, or at least he was until the coronavirus made that less fun to do. He’s also a writer, podcaster, actor, very amateur juggler (he can catch one ball), noodle fan, experienced sigher, and very tired dad. He was also one of the first people to lend support… Read More

Barmy Election

There are six wards on Evesham Town Council. My plan is to be the first candidate not to be elected to any of them. I took a step nearer to fruition on Thursday the 28th October when 43 votes saw me rejected by the Twyford Ward voters in the Evesham Town Council By-election. The Conservative… Read More

22 Years of Leadership

Howling Laud is the longest serving leader of any British political party. An event to celebrate this achievement took place on Friday 15th October at The Turtles Head Inn, Brighton Hill which is the smallest pub in Hampshire. It was hosted by Andy, the landlord and owner. It was full to capacity with five customers… Read More

Minister of Confessions

We are delighted to announce that we have finally got round to appointing our new Minister of Confessions. This is a particularly busy role in the lead up to Christmas as many former Prime Ministers, MP’s & Cabinet Advisors reveal details of their sordid antics to push sales of their latest books and diaries. There… Read More

Loony Party Conference 23rd-25th Sep 2021

Our 37th conference was held in the lovely town of Louth in Lincolnshire. It should have been our 38th as last year was cancelled. We held our promise to our Lincolnshire friends that we would be there this year and we were. I arrived on the 16th, ten days early to make sure all was… Read More
