Summary

The much-needed manifesto by the Sanest Politician in the Entire Cosmos, from capping the price of croissants at £1 to taking over Downing Street.

Greetings, life-form! My name is Count Binface. I am an intergalactic space warrior, leader of the Recyclons and three-time British election veteran. And as part of my overarching mission to control the entire omniverse, I have come to conquer Britain.

It's not that I want to do this—you need me to. Because the one thing everyone can agree on right now is that Earth is in an absolute state. And of all its messed-up nations, the British are particularly deranged.

In this book, I share my story for the first time, my political beliefs and even the occasional recipe, in return for a reasonable—nay, bargain—amount of Earth currency.

I also provide an alien's-visor-view of your past, so that you can learn from past mistakes. This isn't the first potted history of Britain ever to be committed to print, but I can guarantee that compared to any others, mine will be the most accurate. If anyone cares to argue about that, which one of us has had access to a time machine?

So settle down, grab a beverage, and let's make your planet Count.

Excellent: sensible policies for a better quadrant

Fun, intelligent and deftly delivered.

Genuinely agree that there is more sense here than in most political manifestos - would happily listen to much more

Packed with jokes

Highly entertaining. Talks a lot of ridiculous sense. Fingers crossed for a Count Binface government!

Two cheap Corbyn jokes in and I'm done

Technically a good listen. Well produced and well read but it really wasn't what I was hoping for after seeing count binface on politicsjoe.

Very funny in parts.

Sadly the voice will irritate people as it did me, I persevered. Its a reasonable listen. I only wish that they had chosen someone with a funny voice. The narrator spoils this.. I won't listen to it again.
