A British political party that has stood in elections since its inception in the 80’s, the Official Monster Raving Loony Party actively embraces the absurd as a means of pointing out the frequent foolishness in UK government. You will find there pretty much what you would expect from an entity founded by a 70s glam-shock musician called “Screaming Lord Sutch,” except that some of their absurdities are a bit more on the ball than you expected.
I can’t believe I’m trying to explain all this in one post.
Anyway, I had heard that the OMRLP had put up a Parliamentary candidate in 1982 who was a bit of a stretch, even for them: he was a springer spaniel named “Bob.” And while I can’t find anything more on Bob, I did refresh myself with some of the Party’s many, varied and famed Manifesto Proposals:
Animal fashions
It is proposed that:Pets, especially cats and dogs, may not be dressed in miniature human clothing for the purpose of human amusement, unless the animal in question can equip the clothing himself/herself. Punishable by dressing the owner of the animal in miniature human clothing.
Guard Dogs
Guard Dogs shall no longer be permitted.(they’re so vicious)
It is proposed that they will be replaced with Guard Tortoises,
called Shelly.
K9 IQ
The true intelligence of dogs will be fully recognised and appreciated. (when did you last see a dog step in a human poo?)
These are mixed in with things like:
Politicians are Shocked
Politicians to be fitted with electric shock collars, the type used to stop dogs barking, and shocked every time they lie.
Delightful.
