‘The future of British politics’ – Rory Stewart
Count Binface is the galaxy’s most famous politician. In the 2026 Clacton by-election he was the undisputed winner . . . amongst the candidates who bothered to turn up for the result. His 26.9 per cent share of the vote is the highest ever for an alien candidate on Earth.
Join the Binface party and read the Count’s manifesto for fixing Britain.
Greetings, human! Count Binface is the name. Cleaning up politics is the game.
I was invited to write a book after my (moral) victory in the London mayoral election, when I came ninth out of twenty contenders. It’s the kind of result that Tottenham Hotspur can only dream about.
Now that I’ve smashed the record vote for a non-human candidate in a parliamentary election, my publishers have decided to do the only reasonable thing. They’ve reprinted the book with a flashy new cover, in a nakedly cynical attempt for a cheeky sales boost. Speaking as a politician, it’s the sort of manoeuvre I deeply respect.
The one thing we can all agree on right now is that your planet is in an absolute state. It’s time for something different. Very different.
Choose Binface. Make Earth Great Again. Make your vote Count!

Reviews
A really funny book, full of great comic ideas and sometimes surprising common sense
Always surprising. Always funny
Binface is a political phenomenon - a joke candidate who is funny. Really funny. Sharp, satirical and strangely sensible
Count Binface in his steely, glimmering, elusiveness is both a galactically intimidating - and curiously heartening - symbol of the future of British politics #believeinthebin
Count Binface is out of this world
Count Binface is out of this world
Count Binface will be Prime Minister. It's only a matter of time
Halfway through this book I actually started thinking Binface had some brilliant ideas...he had me at "London Bridge should be renamed Phoebe Waller"
It's time for the Bin Supremacy
Our favourite space politician
