Me, third on four per cent.
Ah well, at least you don't have to pay a deposit for local elections.
What have we wrought in the UK?

It must be particularly galling that, as if the humiliation were not enough first time round, they helpfully also present the data in bar graph and pie chart form.
My commiserations, Mark, and respect to you for standing up to be counted.
McH, as the great man once said "All political careers end in failure" - I'm just getting it over with :)
Ya caned the greenoid again, though. Always a silver lining. :-)
And just think how much pleasure we have all received from reading "Gerard".
DP, bronze lining, at best.
TFB, a) OK, call it my third humiliation, b) I didn't choose that name, it's what's on my birth certificate, c) if I had to choose a first name, it would be a tad more original than "The".
Third is Bronze Medal position. :-)
Well done for trying.
Gerard strikes me as rather a suave name.I'd always imagined it was something like Gordon.Osborne started being christened Gideon but changed it to George which is not really that much better, though it avoided the nickname Giddy ,not really suitable for a Chancellor ( although I suppose they'll try to reel in the Cable.)
Couldda been worse, parents sometimes suffer brainstorms and end up calling boys "Rocky", or become hoplessly alliterative and then you would have been Willie Wadsworth, which is memorable but sounds like a 1940s jockey.
"Wee Willie Wadsworth". Doesn't bear thinking about.
Well done you. Most people sit on their backsides and complain. You actually got up and did something.
Mrs R, ta.
DBC, I'd draw the line at 'Gordon'. I'd have changed it by deed poll the minute I turned 18.
WOAR, it doesn't bear thinking about. But may I paraphrase: "Most people sit on their backsides and complain. You actually got up and failed miserably." :-)
