After standing against Theresa May as Lord Buckethead in the 2017 elections and against Boris Johnson in 2019 under his current name, “your friendly neighbourhood space warrior” is standing once more in the London Mayoral elections.
His website claims he will “bring voters a touch of intergalactic class and some ingenious policies that will PUT LONDON ON THE MAP”.
His manifesto lists policies such as renaming London Bridge after Phoebe Waller-Bridge, having London join the EU, and tying government ministers’ pay to that of nurses.
Fox, on the other hand, is campaigning to “unlock London and free Londoners” from Covid restrictions.
He is also promising free tube travel for 6 months and ending “the divisive and discriminatory wokery that has infected our city”.
