Chairman Chang

The Chanterlands Avenue Baptist Church Mafia as - Themselves

The Story so far.... Emperor Tony Blair declared war on The Saddam the Merciless and the Good people of Planet Britain are pissed. Despite the fact that an earlier expedition to exterminate the Evil Taliban was regarded as a liberation, and not, a mindless assault on another culture the Baptist Mafia are on the brink of tossing Emperor Blair into the Soul eating death pit of "Houseoflords" unless he can give them a damn good reason why he never asked their permission to free another country from Saddams sweaty (but surprisingly nimble) evil clutches. Ever since the Democracy Wars of 1645AD it has been traditional that each sect of the British Federation send a representative to argue their point of view in the vain hope that they, one day, will wield the crystal Mantle of Power. But the Baptists are blood thirsty The Candidates, twitchy And as Chairman Chang clears his throat to commence proceedings, a suspicious hush of silence deafens the idol adorned room...

Lydia Rivlin - Conservative

War - Thinks the Falklands Conflict was a bunch of Penguins bitch-slapping each other Religion - A women of the cloth. How do I know? She was wearing it. Education - She'd like to see more schools being built on Mars Pensioners - She is one! Eccentricity - Like the Mad Auntie you always wish you had.

Standout Idea - Not to repeal the law on Euthanasia which may or may not come back to haunt her one day Professionalism - Vague, confused, unsure. A true Conservative Theme Tune - Max Bygraves - You're a Pink tooth brush/I'm a blue toothbrush Use in a Fight - Deadly with a plate of scones and a pot of tea. Drink of Choice - Sherry. I bet you a billion pounds Why should I vote for her: I honestly don't know...for a laugh maybe.
